If indirect cooking is necessary, Weber suggests is that you use a grill basket to create a little more distance from the flame. The grill surface is roughly 12½″ front to back and 16¾″ side to side weber charcoal grill at its widest points. It’s large enough to grill about six larger hamburger patties or around 18 regular hotdogs. Alternatively, two smaller steaks on one side and a veggie pack on the other.
However the Traveler, which is just a little bigger than the Q2200 is absolutely portable and has a much improved cart and side table. My experience with weber genesis 2 grills is that they get hot enough to grill steaks properly, have even heat distribution and are highly reliable. I do not own a Q2200 but do have the Q1200 and Q3200, and I enjoy both of them very much. Design flaw – you can only use smallest propane because frame limits size of cylinder. The Q is much smaller, but not noticeable when it comes to cooking.
If you are looking for a Weber grill that will accommodate food for more people, then look no further than Q2000. It combines some of the best features to give you the best possible grill for your BBQ experience. To start with, it has the same construction as the previous models. These include stainless steel burner, cast-aluminum body, cast-iron grates enameled with porcelain, and a strong nylon frame reinforced with glass. Speaking of surface size, at 320 square inches of grilling space, this has more than enough capacity for any grilling situation I find myself in.
A single, U-shaped burner puts out 8,500 BTU to efficiently heat the porcelain-enameled, cast-iron grill surface. Although it tops our list of portable grills, the 31-pound, 3.2 cubic-foot frame of the Q 1200 is best suited to your tailgate, apartment patio, or as part of your RV setup. 3200 grill offers the largest cooking space in the whole series. With 393 square inches of cooking space, you can cook much more at the same time. However, its larger capacity increases its dimensions to 55.5 x 50.2 x 30 inches, which reduces its portability. To counter this, the grill comes with an included heavy-duty cart that can help you wheel out the grill from its storage space.
A durable, tough, and trustworthy grill can make all the difference between a successful and a failed barbeque party. It is always better to invest your money in one that can last for a long time. We highly recommend you to go for the Weber Q Series, which contains all the best features for you.
I had leftover ground beef in the fridge, so I decided to grill up a burger for dinner. Everything went smoothly until it came to the catch pan—because nothing can ever just be that easy, right? The pan is made from lightweight metal and has a recessed area in the center to hold a disposable tin.
The control valve and ignition button simply slip into place, and the ignition even comes with the necessary AAA battery. Once that’s done, all that’s left to do is place the grates on the grill and slide the catch pan into place. Overall, you will find Q2000 to be as durable, sturdy, tough, and easy to maintain as the previous models. Apart from this, its cookbox design will circulate the heat much better to give you tenderized yet smoky meat.
Last up is the cart itself, which while functional, is about as flimsy as the tables. The cart will do perfectly fine while you are grilling your burgers but has quite a bit of wobble once you grab a brush and try to scrape it clean. The cart does collapse and you can roll the thing around but you will not want to. There is no lid latch to keep the lid closed during transport and the grates will bounce around, and then out, of the grill while you are rolling the cart. The Q2200 has a single burner the goes around the body of the grill.
