Weber Genesis II Premium SE-330 3-Burner Gas Grill, 39,000-BTUs + Side & Sear Burner

With 230 reviews on the Consumer Affairs website, they’ve got a 4-out-of-5 rating. Use a stainless steel brush or a wooden barbecue paddle, you’ll find some good options in our best grill cleaning tools roundup. Grease also helps to muck up the inside the lid; greasy vapors and smoke collect there and carbonize, hanging like black stalactites in a cave. Just knock off these flakes and scoop or vacuum them up to prevent them from getting onto your food. While you’re at it, use a plastic scraper to clean out the cook box. As you can see in the photos in the carousel above, I also manage to smoke roast with this grill.

The open cart makes it easy to access this pan, and if there’s any build-up, just remove it with a plastic scraper. If you’re used to the empty soup tin hanging under the firebox, this will seem revolutionary. In a nutshell, George happened upon the idea of cutting a buoy, the main product of Weber Brothers, in half.

The main cooking area of the grill rounded to the nearest 5 sq. Not including any searing burners in the main cooking area. It’s my understanding that the Genesis II LX gas grills are being assembled in the United States…for now.

The Weber Genesis II E-310 is among just a few backyard grills that support smart technology. Weber didn’t create this tech on its own — it acquired the iGrill brand from iDevices, a line of Bluetooth, app-connected thermometers, including the $50 iGrill Mini. Grill companies are starting to get the hang of better searing capabilities, even adding little “sear burners” for the task.

To measure how grills perform under high heat conditions, I subjected them to our burger test. This exercise shows how much raw power a grill can bring to the table. I ran three such tests of six 5.3-ounce burgers each pressed portable bbq from the same hamburger press. I flipped all of the burners on high and gave the grill 10 minutes to preheat. To add smarts to the Genesis II you’ll need to purchase the iGrill 3 accessory separately, a $100 upgrade.

However, you’ll be pleased to know that because of this heat, you can make some beautiful sear marks without the need for a sear station. The Weber Genesis is also available in both natural gas and propane variants, meaning you can have options when it comes to your personal setup. Then, it’ll be up to you to decide if this gas grill is all it’s made out to be. Our customer service reps are real people offering great service, backed by 8 weeks of hands-on training with all of our products.

This was the bbq I wanted so badly and was given it as my 40th birthday gift from my closest friends. The heat is terribly inconsistent and the grilling is quite poor. As an oven for slow cooking, it’s great but fails miserably as a grilling bbq. I’ve gone out and purchased another Weber Kettle just for grilling and keep this under cover if I ever want to slow cook.
