Mine only last 2 year at best. What about putting a think steel or
aluminium plate on top of the burner to protect from the drippings. It
would be a hair smaller shape then the burner, in order not to block the
flame. Any ideas? Thanks

I once had a cast iron burner and it
lasted for a looooong time. When it
finally rusted out, I replaced it with
those aluminum ones. It didn't last more
than 3 or so years. I think you can
still get them in cast iron, but
they seem much harder to find.

Weber has em, they are called flavorizer bars.

Problem is, the flavorizer bars burn up instead of the burner. But,
mine lasted 5 years, and I grill quite a bit. I'm about to buy some new
bars.... havn't checked yet, but I'm pretty sure they are a lot cheaper
then a new burner or grill.

I think the better grills have burners that are heavier gauge and last
longer. My Weber is about 7 yrs old now and so far the only complaint
I have is the wood side shelves are deteriorating. Weber fixed that,
the new ones are made of synthetic trex like material.
