Weber Grills Q 1200 Portable Propane Gas Grill Red 51040001

A grill that rocks and wobbles will provide significant challenges when you attempt to cook on it. As a rule of thumb, a grill with thicker construction will retain and spread heat better than one with thin walls and bottoms, with some exceptions. The Everdure CUBE, for example, has thinner construction but is specifically designed to distribute heat evenly. First, assembly is a non-issue, as it consists of lining up the grates after taking the grill out of the box, and it took longer to unpack than to make it ready to cook.

A swiveling metal arm holds the grill together for transport and doubles as a lid holder while you’re grilling. The comfortable plastic handle allows you to lift the grill with one hand, while a heat shield keeps it cool to the touch during grilling. Portable gas grills work with 1-pound liquid-propane canisters that are small, packable, and available at most hardware stores. When you’re done cooking, the grill cools quickly, and you don’t have to worry about dumping out ashes.

It’s a little too small for my needs, but if you want to spend a bit less and don’t want the higher cart you get with the Traveller it’s a good option. After that, I loaded the grill up with bratwurst links to see where the heat zones were. You can do this same test with bread, but I’m not much for carbs.

I’ve used it four or five times last week and will be using it all weekend in this beautiful weather with a cold one. Love that it’s collapsible, sleek design and enough grill space for 4 people.

Where applicable by law, tax is charged on the sale price before application of Instant Savings. At home, I cooked all kinds of meats, from chicken thighs and wings, to brats and salmon filets.

Finally, the grill grates are made of heavy-duty, cast iron which I personally prefer cooking on over others made of porcelain-coated or stainless steel. In my opinion, cast iron holds its seasoning longer and sears meat the best. We rated weber gas grill the grills on ease of cleaning, including dumping any ash and unused charcoal for applicable models. After rating the grills’ overall performances in these areas, we looked at those scores and weighed them against their retail prices.
