Weber q2200 Vs q3200

Trying to decide between the Weber 2200 and the 3200?

These two gas grills are two of the most popular compact grills offered by Weber and today we’re going to compare the two of them to help you determine which one is best suited for you.

So, whether you need something that can be tossed into the back of your car or SUV, or you just need something that won’t take up much space on your apartment patio, keep reading.

Weber Porcelain Enameled Flavorizer Bars Vs Stainless Steel

by Breana

Weber gas grills are known for being industry leaders in quality.

Though there are many different grill model lines, designs, differences in technology, and other variations, Weber grills tend to be associated with even heating and reliable construction.

Part of the secret behind the success is the use of Flavorizer bars. These bars are made exclusively for Weber grills.

They are inverted pieces of steel in a V-shape that are placed between the cooking grates and burner tubes. There are multiple Flavorizer bar purposes.

Weber grills tend to last for years on end, but eventually, the Flavorizer bars will need replacing. The company sells replacement models in stainless steel and porcelain-enameled steel construction.

by Nick Wilkesmann

Weber Genesis II E-310 Vs S-310

Two grills in the Weber Genesis II lineup are the E-310 and the S-310. Both offer excellent performance, cooking stability, and resistance to flare-ups thanks to the built-in grease catching system.

They also have an Infiniti ignition system that keeps the burners going without needing matches.

Weber grills use porcelain-enameled flavorizer bars to encourage smokier taste while providing the convenience of a gas grill.

Each model is compatible with the iGrill 3 app, allowing you continuous monitoring of your grill’s temperature remotely.

Though the models are similar, there are differences in price due to the few differences in their features. The best one for you depends on whether the added features are worth the price point.

Best Pellet Grill for Searing

Searing is a type of cooking technique that people use when preparing poultry, fish, or meat.

Though inexperienced grillers often mistake searing for being a similar process to normal grilling, the technique actually involves much higher temperatures during the cooking process.

As these high temperatures cook the meat, a caramelized crust will form. Doing this helps to seal moisture inside the meat rather than letting it escape through evaporation.

Theoretically, a seared steak is much juicier and more full of flavor than a normally grilled one.

Because most pellet grills can be used for grilling, smoking, and searing, they’ve become increasingly popular over the last several years.

While the majority of pellet-based designs are meant to handle searing, not all of them can. Even with grills that are capable of the technique, some manage it better than others.

To get a good sear, the pellet grill model has to be able to give off a minimum of 300 F, and 500 F is an even better target.

You’ll also need to consider the temperature controls, materials used for construction, and size of the overall grill and cooking space.

We’ve put together a list of the grills that will give you the juicy, succulent flavor you’re hoping for.
