Legendary Weber quality, tons of thoughtful features, and built-to-last construction make this propane-fueled gas grill a solid choice for years of pure grilling pleasure. Three high-grade stainless steel burners run the length of the durable, thick-walled cast aluminum cookbox, inputting a powerful 36,000 BTU per hour and producing exceptionally even heat without hot or cold spots. Each burner is individually controlled to enable either direct or indirect cooking, while the infinite control valves allow exceptionally precise temperature control. The Genesis Gold C also adds a heavy-duty side burner that lets you prepare your entire meal in one spot, heating side dishes and sauces while your meat grills. 611 inches of total cooking area provide enough room to cook for even large parties and include a convenient warming rack, to keep already-cooked foods warm or toast hamburger buns, and a warm-up basket, to cook easily burned foods like fish or vegetables and to provide more warming space. Weber's Crossover ignition system makes starting the grill easier than ever, lighting all three burners in succession with just the push of a button.
Like all Weber gas grills, the Genesis Gold C features heavy-duty stainless steel Flavorizer bars to eliminate the flare-ups caused by lava rocks and ceramic briquettes; fats and juices hit the angled bars and sizzle away, adding delicious, smoky barbecue flavor instead of flames. A slide-out bottom tray funnels grease away from the burners and into a removable catch pan for quick and painless clean-up. The grill includes a roomy storage area with solid steel bottom shelf, while a swing-up work surface offers plenty of space to spread out sauces, marinades, utensils and other prep essentials. The work surface is made from granite-look Thermoset for maximum durability, heat resistance, and ease of cleaning, and features four sturdy hooks to keep favorite barbecue tools close to hand. The double-walled stainless steel hood adds a layer of insulation to trap heat and protect from discoloring.
Thoughtful add-ons and extra features elevate this grill above similarly priced models. A built-in thermometer monitors the temperature inside the grill for precise cooking. Rugged, weather-resistant wheels are crack-proof in the most extreme temperatures and allow easy transport, while locking casters prevent the grill from rolling during cooking. The porcelain-on-steel control panel includes a meat temperature chart on the enameled surface for easy reference, and all three burners have screens to keep spiders from spinning combustible webs inside. Best of all, ten fasteners are all that's needed to put this grill together, meaning you'll go from box to barbecue in less than 40 minutes. The Genesis Gold C measures 63 inches high by 64-1/2 inches wide by 30 inches deep. Made in the USA, it's backed by a limited lifetime warranty. --Mary Park

hate it
I bought this grill a while back. It does the job but burns the food more often than it should. It's hard to control the temperature and doesn't leave grill marks like a cast iron grill would. The next grill will be a cast iron grill. Stainless steel is overrated!
Great Grill
I bought the weber genesis gold in march 2008. I been using it about 3 times a week. It is my first higher end grill and I enjoy using it. Before I got my Weber I had to deal with hot spots and yearly burner replacing. With the Weber the first thing I did was try to find a hot spot but believe me there is none!! It heats evenly and cooks like a dream. I love the control of having 3 burners and the side burner even cooked well with the wind blowing about 15-20 MPH. The side shelves are very easy to use.... more info
Nice Unit
Weber quality is here. The grill performs flawlessly with a minimum of flare ups. Good non-magnetic stainless used also. The flavorizer bars are sturdy and really add flavor to the meats!
Now I know what the fuss is about
Owned a cheap gas grill that died after 2 years of less than stellar performance. I asked a few friends and a few sales people for recommendations and almost all of them said Weber. I am extremely happy to have taken their advice. I learned a lot about grilling from the included booklet and with this knowledge and this Weber, my family is now enjoying grilled food about 4 times a week. Great grill !!!
