recommend a grill for me/others to procure

[kim carnes]

Pretty sure there is a parts diff btwn propane and nat gas. I know they sell them designated one way or the other.  Maybe a regulator difference?   Have also been told that you can buy conversion kits.

have you had any probs with your genesis?

you can generally go from propane to natural gas by just making the orifices a little larger but going from natural gas to propane is tough because there is no way to make the orifices smaller

if you want to be sure, look only for a natural gas model

if you have any shop chops, it is easily remidied

I don't know about amazing but it certainly is a solid combo grill. I haven't bought the smoke box attachment though.

excellent.  so weber, bull outdoor or lynx.  stainless steel.  propane or natl gas, doesn't matter.  hopefully someone will put something along those lines up on craigslist.

You can generally change out the orifices/burners in any grill to switch between the two. Will run between $50-100 depending on the grill and what needs changed.

Man, so not only can you choose between charcoal and propane these days but also natural gas? Hank Hill has got to be pissed.

I've had a Weber Genesis for almost 10 years and it still works great. Still has the original brass burners (3 burner model), I've replaced the grates a couple of times. Very little rust and its not the stainless steel model.

[Mikeyis4dcats]

I got the last generation Genesis that was 100% USA made on clearance at Home Depot for about $180.     Was a great deal.   I never beleived the Weber hype, but they are worth it.

The best thing about Weber is that most of the time you can call up if something wears out or breaks and they will send you the replacement part free.  Though I've not had to use this, there are TONS of people who buy used Webers then make them like new again doing this.

I bought a charcoal grill for $89 at Lowes and it cooks food well.  Gets really hot and just cooks it up nice.

Love my weber, only problem was from stupidity on my part as i left the battery in the electric start over one winter and it got all nasty and messed up.  I went with the 3 burner spirit 3 years ago so it isnt quite as fancy as the genisis but it works great.  No rust or any issues and I leave it under my back porch uncovered.  When i got mine Home Depot was the only place you could get it with the heavy cast iron grates.  Not sure if this is an issue now but just look at the store when you go.

This is the grill i recommended on page 1, i personally think it can't be beat for the price.

Can someone link me to a place that sells the side smoker box?

It is not a peice of crap, i've been nothing but pleased with the purchase

[CNS]

I used to buy cheap grills ($150 or so at walmart, bestbuy, etc) and the burners or grill tops would corrode out in a couple yrs and repair parts cost like 60% of the cost of a new cheap grill.  When I bought my Weber, I did so because it has something like a 10yr warranty on the burners and a 25 yr warranty on the cast iron grill top.

Agreed, can't believe it was so inexpensive. Have used the crap out of it for several years now and have had nothing but success.
Also: the side gas burner is great for lighting the charcoal chimney. It was practically made to fit.

[one time gella]

Eff gas...  the only thing it's good for is lighting charcoal with a weed burner.
Go with a Weber Performer...find a good old ss top one on craigslist...you wont regret it.
If you want to go big, go for the Weber Rancher.

LOL - Why anyone went to the trouble to actually recommend anything for Fake Sugar Carnes is beyond me.

just got a green egg

I know this doesn't help

Gas is great just have to season correctly.   I don't have time to do charcoal during the week.

Slow down and grill.
