I second that on the cast iron grills. Mine are by Vermont Castings, and
NOTHING sticks to them if you spray a little PAM on there, or if it does,
just leave on for ten minutes and brush.

Roger, I have a question. How do you keep your SS shiny? On the SS
components of my grills, they always get oily and sand sticks to them and
they are kind of hard to clean. The cheap 509 degreaser spray from the
Dollar Store works best for me, and every once in a while, I'll take the
hose and the vacuum and the 509 and really give them a bath.

I have looked at the grills, and even the Weber as I may buy another grill
for my cabin. I am just slightly reluctant, as my experience with SS is
that it takes time to keep it up.

Thanks.

Steve

Same here. I have a Weber Genesis that is probably about 10 years old
now and nearing the end of it's life. It's been a great grill. Only
problem I had was that the wood shelves eventually started to rot
away, but they've fixed that by going to the Trex like material on the
new ones.

If you have natural gas avail at the house, I'd recommend looking into
going with that as fuel. Have it here and not having to deal with
the tanks is a big plus.

I have thought about going this route too Can you provide an estimate of
cost?

got a new Weber some months ago. A little more expensive, but has been a
great grill.
I'm in the market for a new grill and will probably buy one tomorrow.
I have done a bit of research and wanted to know what any
recommendations there are regarding liquid propane gas grills. I am
somewhat interested in the infrared grills but don't think I can afford
one.

Any suggestions for LP grills $500 and below at the national stores?

I have a Weber and had to replace the grates. Went to the stainless
steel ones and am very happy with it.
