Throughout my testing, I was easily able to achieve temperatures of 450 to 500 degrees with this portable grill, which was enough for my needs. However, if you like to cook with really high temperatures—I’m talking over 500 degrees—you might have trouble getting there with only one burner. Everything went smoothly until it came to the catch pan—because nothing can ever just be that easy, right?
Choose from small, bare-bones models or full-sized models with all of the bells and whistles. If you have a Phillips-head screwdriver and a can-do attitude, you’ll be able to set up the Weber Q 2200 Grill in a matter of minutes. After pulling the grill and its pieces out of the box, I attached the lid using the included pins and screwed on the grill’s handle and thermometer.
It will become your ‘go-to’ cooking appliance for anything from fish and vegetables, to lamb chops and steaks. It’s hard to look past a Weber for reliability, and the great reputation for ease of use. The weber genesis 2 LP has a sleek design that looks fantastic, including a single spark igniter for your convenience, a stainless steel burner and a cast alloy lid and bowl. I should start by saying that all feels like a bit of a stretch.
The grill gets hot enough to get great sear marks and the heavy cast iron grates are excellent at retaining heat. People are delighted that such a compact grill has serious high heat grilling ability. Weber Q 320 ReviewOne of the main reasons people buy a gas grill is so that they can benefit from the speed in which these models heat up . The Weber 320 is decent enough at this, taking about 10 minutes to reach its optimum temperature of 625°F, which is about average for most models like this. Moreover, the cart contains a handy storage space for your tools with three hooks. It even features two large folding side tables that have been reinforced with glass for extra protection.
As long as you keep the lid closed, you shouldn’t lose heat and will be able to cook the food faster. The sturdy handles extend far enough away from the grill body to make it reasonable to pick up and move even while lit. Last, but certainly not least, we wish this model came with a latch to secure the lid. Though it doesn’t solve the issue, the cast aluminum lid is at least heavier than most, so it doesn’t bounce around much during normal travel. But if you’re planning on four-wheeling into your BBQ site, consider using a bungee cord to help secure it. The weber genesis 2 1200 is an unexpectedly powerful grill, resulting in cook times that were much faster than expected for such a petite barbecue.
But understand that is just a guess and an assumption that other factors such as the hinge size and position are all the same. While I didn’t have one single issue, I have read a few complaints regarding regulator failure. In a few weber q cases, this might be an actual problem in which Weber’s customer service will be more than happy to send you out a new one. Then, simply empty out the catch pan that has collected grease and food debris drained from the unit.
