I'm told I can get a gas grill for Fathers' Day. Will be my first. I really only need a two burner and would like to try to find a good one for under $450. I am leaning toward a Weber Genesis Silver A ($399), but am wondering if there may be a brand of equal quality that might be a bit less expensive.

Hi Jonathan:

I would go with the Weber.  I have the Genesis Silver B and just love it.  I think that the B has a higher BTU output than the A.  I was fortunate to get my Silver B on closeout several years ago for $350.  That was $100 cheaper than any other price in town.  One of the few times I get a bargain.  If you go with the Weber, I would recommend getting some of the accessories such as the rotiserrie (sp) and rib rack.

Good luck on your purchase.

Weber.

Silver A here.

Dav the hoity toity place near us has Ducane. They look good, the place is pretty snobby, but they usually carry only quality stuff. Never seen Sterling Forge. There are some nice grills out there now. A lot more upscale (expensive) brands than just a few years ago.

This is what they sell a lot of now.

Don't know anything about them, except it is what the rich and famous in Baltimore are buying.

If you want to get serious about great taste, go charcoal ovens from Hasty Bake. I have a Weber Gas Grill but much prefer charcoal to cook over. These are not you average charcoal grill.

Actually, I wish I had my Weber One Touch back.

They have seven different models from affordable to Damn! You can accomplich perfection with these babies.


Here's Damn........$5798.00

Weber Silver A here for us, a family of five. One thing I do notice though is that there are hotter spots on the grill. The right side seems to cook faster than the left. So what I do is just rotate the food around on the grill.

Hmmm...... maybe I just have to clean it?

Now where did I put that power washer?

I like the Silver B for my Beer marinated chicken specialty.

Don't really know what to suggest.  I'm partial to a camp fire style bbq.  Takes a heck of a long time to do anything, but the flavor is awesome.

Grill...

Decided on the Ducane S.S. 24" 3-burner model only available @ Home Depot... $699... WOW ! Lotta $$$...

Mainly because it has an infared burner for the rotisserie... and Ducane / Weber support... Weber owns Ducane and incorporated Weber design into this grill... burner section..

Made a HD store vistit... and several HD store calls calls to find one !   ...most stores are out-of-stock... they come in... go out... 1 1/2 hour round trip tomorrow to pick it up...

There's toooo many grills to investigate / choose from... like most things...

Hopefully... I've found  "The grill of my life !.. "    Borrowed this sayin' from my cousin's commercial for gas grills he sells...

Based on comments here and some additional research on the internet, we went ahead and bought a Weber Genesis Silver A today. It fired up on the first push of the igniter and worked well. Thanks for all your advice. Jonathan

Did you get the dark blue like this one?
