Weber 300 BBQ Review

By | 2012-06-06

I ended up replacing a large stainless steel BBQ with side burner and rotisserie with a Weber 300 from Home Depot.

I looked again at the STOK Gridiron Portable that really interested me, and realized it had no tank rack, and only a small hand held tank style connection under the side table. So it looks like it’s only intended for a small cylinder to screw on vertically. You’d have to find or make an adapter hose to use a 20 lb tank with it.

The Weber 300 went together a little easier than a SS BBQ and is pretty sturdy, though the frame is almost all moulded plastic. So carting it any distance or over a lawn would require removing the tank, but once you do so it’s somewhat portable in nature. I’d only want to move it a short distance on a flat surface with a full tank. Thought it’s far lighter than your average SS BBQ, which is good.

On first use the 300 got really hot and cooked well, we were impressed using it. We realized we never use the rotisseries and side burners like is standard on large BBQ’s, or even need 2 larger side tables than what is on the Webber. So for us, I think we finally have found the right kind of BBQ.

It cooks your meat, doesn’t waste a lot of room, looks good, and you can move it without breaking off an overly small caster (which seems to be typical on most BBQ’s these days.)
