Gas Grills

[houstonwhodat]

I have a Kenmore gas grill and a Weber 22" kettle charcoal grill.

I used my Weber for smoking and whatnot and the gas grill for quick cooking.

The flavorizer bars and the drip tray sheet metal is all rotted out on the gas grill so I need to either replace these pieces or replace the whole damn grill.

I know the Weber gas grills are good but real expensive.

I'd like to find one that has a smoking tray built right in and maybe an infared burner for searing steaks.

I may even consider a Traeger.

Any ideas?

I recommend one with a side burner. You'll thank me later.

Not sure if this is sarcasm. I used to think the sideburner was brilliant, but truth is I never use it.

I've used mine once in 12 years on my Weber, although I didn't pay for it.

I like charcoal grills best don't curr for anything else but will use them if need too.

I've used mine precisely never.

I've got a Brinkmann. It's a good medium between shit ass terrible walmart quality and weber.

My buddy and my mom have a traeger. It doesn't get very hot so it is about equivalent time wise to using charcoal. You can do some nice things with it but getting a nice good sear on a burger is tough. My mom has had a ****ton of problems with hers. My buddy has had none except when his dog ate the wires. Not sure what means over the general population, but there are at least potential for problems.

I'd like to have a traeger but the gas is the better value for me until I have far more disposable income to run both.

I've never used my side burner either. Probably because I'm lazy and don't want to have to fill the tank more often.

I'm lazy and use a Traeger. My wife and I love the food it produces.

What kind of problems did the Traeger have?

The damn thing is already 1000.00

Supposedly the quality of Traeger has plummeted over the last 5+ years.

I'd recommend Yoder if you're looking for a quality pellet feeder.

Infrared/Gas shit for yard bird

Lump charcoal for the Hibachi (Beef Pork)

Use this for smoking



This for gas grilling



And this for charcoal grilling. This is the exact set-up I have in my backyard/deck. Spend a little more upfront for the Weber gas grill and a Yoder smoker. They will last for a long time and you will always be able to produce great food from them.

In 3 years you need a place to dump it.

Sideburners are perhaps the most overrated feature of grills in the history of grills. Not saying that they don't have their uses, but most people don't use them and never miss them.
