Weber genesis

[DLeopoldi]

Got this grill from my father in law about 6 years ago when I moved into my townhouse.

Grill is always covered by the wood bars have become rotted.

Is it as easy as jut buy cedar planks from Home Depot cut to size and replace?

Do I need to stain the cedar?

I can buy 2x1x8 from lowes…..

I would think you should seal the wood. Most people use an outdoor rated Spar type urethane. That is what I did on mine. I think that replacement durawood may also be available.

I don't know about durawood being available anymore unless you get it from a donor grill or use something similar such as Trex. I do agree with using spar urethane to protect your finish unless you want to end up reapplying every year or so.
