I have a massive CharGriller I got from Lowes a few years back... I love this grill.

I'm a charcoal man all the way...I use it for slow smoking beef and pork loin all the time.

Re: What brand of grill do you have ?

I have a Weber Genesis series that I have had since 1994 and the ability to replace parts has been very nice. I really enjoy the 3 burners and the consistancy of the temp... I have delt with CS several times to replace parts and most of them have bee under warrenty and replaced for free. You can't put a price on quality CS IMO... Good luck!

Re: What brand of grill do you have ?

I have a Char Broil that I picked up at a Labor Day Weekend sale a year and a half ago. It was something like 20-25% off at Lowes. It has a side grill and three burners. So far, I’m very pleased with it. It cooks rather evenly and is easy to clean. Plus, BBQing is a great excuse to smoke a stogie.

I use a genesis silver ,3 burner,13 years and have not changed anything,not even the igniter, the only problem I have is the right side cooks a little hotter than the left...I store this outside all winter without even a cover and it still looks brand new..

Re: What brand of grill do you have ?

Tried ribs twice on a charbroil grill - the hausfrau declared no more, they were awful. Got a Weber Genesis Silver B. Ribs are now requested when company is coming - real indirect heat is fun way to grill. Can do a pork shoulder on low for 3+ hours for pulled pork or sear steaks on high. It is now 4 years old and is used 2 times a week in the winter and sometimes 5-6 n the summer. No problems and nothing replaced after heavy use. Oh, the porcelain covered cast iron grates are the way to go.

Napoleon Prestige series. When I brought it home my wife took one look at it and said "Honey, that's a man grill!". She was right... I love my grill.

Great features... I Love the rotisserie, makes great chiken or small roasts.

Re: What brand of grill do you have ?

I'm pretty much decided on a Weber Summit S-450 with the included rotisserie and smoker burner box . I've read alot of reviews and the Weber brand with their great customer service seems to be the way to go . Now I just have to find a good deal .

I have Webber Silver - works great for me - only gets used about 4 or 5 months out of the year

You won't be disappointed... Get a cover if you plan to have it exposed to the elements and get ready to cook..

Re: What brand of grill do you have ?

The new grill will live in the garage when not in use so no cover needed currently . I pretty much grill all year long , not as much in the winter but still a couple times a month when its cold .

Re: What brand of grill do you have ?

I'm actually now in the market for a new grill, replacing my crappy Kenmore. I'm between a Weber Genesis E-320 and a Fiesta Blue Ember, which has been very well-reviewed and was a Best Buy in Consumer Reports. The Weber's about $250 more, but I'm pretty confident that I'd have it for a good ten years; my dad swears by Weber and has had his since the mid-90's. What I like about the Fiesta, aside from price, is its cool features - LED lights for night grilling, built-in bottle opener (so unnecessary, so gimmicky, but still pretty kickass), smoker box, side burner which can be converted into an ice bucket (the Fiesta people are all about drinking while you grill, I guess), rotisserie, pretty much any grill feature I can think of. But I know perfectly well that it wouldn't last as long, or probably cook quite as well, as the Weber.

Re: What brand of grill do you have ?

For durability you cant beat the Weber Genesis series. I have had mine out on the deck since 1995 and use it four or five times a week. Last year I had to replace the flavorizer bars because they were getting rot holes, so I invested 80 bucks and I was good to go.

Re: What brand of grill do you have ?

Got to go with the Grill N Roast. It's got plenty of size but not overly huge, great sturdy construction, going more for durability than fanciness, is perfect for searing a steak or cooking burgers but also has leuvers (sp?) you can shut to cut down on the flame contact to roast my favorite... cornish hens with a can of your choice beverage shoved up them or thigh/leg quarters without totally burning them from flare ups. Also from what I've heard although luckily never had to deal with them in the 6 or 7 years we've had it, the company has excellent service.
