The Weber Portable Gas Grill Q 100: a First-Hand Review

My husband and I are great fans of grilling. When we were living in a house we used to use our charcoal barbecue every week but recently we have moved to an apartment and, since we don’t have a backyard anymore (but a small terrace), we had to come up with a solution for the grilling. 

So, I started my research for an alternative to my old charcoal grill. I found online some great reviews for the Weber Q 100 Portable Gas Grill and decided to give it a try. My final decision to take the plunge was encouraged by the recommendation made by a friend of ours who is a great fan of grilling as well (and considers himself an expert on the subject).

I had my doubts whether my food was going to be as tasty as the one grilled on charcoal but, as it turned out to be, my concerns were out of place.

First of all it’s very well made and sturdy. The grill has a heavy Cast Iron grate unlike some cheaper grills you can find on the market, that have thin grates. The grill surface is not that big but it’s enough for a family of four.

The grill heats up wonderfully and the heat is even.

Every food we have made on the grill tasted great and you get a nice sear after some 6-8 minutes of preheat (I just love the grill marks on the steaks).

The food gets done quite quickly so beware if you don’t pay attention it can get dried out. Definitely get a stop watch and you’ll be doing just fine.

I was a little concerned about the gas tanks that this grill operates on (I never used one in my life) but it’s really a no-brainer. The grill works on a standard 14.1 or 16.4 ounce propane cylinders. I hooked my grill up to a 5 lb propane tank (and it lasted for quite a while), but I have read that some people use larger gas tanks with an adapter hose.

The grill is so much easier to operate than a charcoal grill. It ignites at the push of a button and has an adjustable burner valve with a regulator so you can control the heat.

Since I hate cleaning my grills, I found it to be very helpful (and later read the same thing from other grill users) to use aluminum foil on the inside of the grill.  So I clean the grill in no time. Furthermore you can use a foil tray for the drip pan as well.

I use another trick that saves me some cleanup: I brush the grill or the meat with oil so the food doesn’t stick so much.

I found the book you get with the grill to be most helpful. It had some great instructions and tips, especially the grilling time charts.

Since I’m using this grill so much (a couple of time per week) I bought the folding cart for this model too. It’s such a great accessory to the grill. I recommend you get a grill brush as well.

I have to say I’m absolutely enthusiastic about this grill. It’s really worth every penny I paid (the price is not that high though). I forgot my old charcoal grill. The Weber Q 100 is so much easier to use. You can prepare your food in no time and, what’s important to me, you don’t have to have a backyard at your disposal. Of course if you are planning a barbecue party then you should get a larger one. The Q 100 is ideal for a family of four (like mine) or if you’re single, and if you don’t have a couple of hours to grill. Most of the times, when I get from work, I just light my grill and have a great meal in 20 minutes. I found this to be a priceless commodity.

Here is another little tip: try to always keep the Burner Ring grease free or it won’t light well. The Weber Portable Gas Grill Q 100 is one of the most popular Gas Grills on the market (actually it’s the most sold gas grill on Amazon.com).

Natural Gas vs Charcoal Grills – Which one is right for you?

Barbequing outdoors is a pleasure that anyone can partake in and with so many types of grills available you can practically cook anywhere. One exception to the list is a natural Gas Grill which needs a permanent hook up. Listed below are some of the main advantages / disadvantages and suggestions for both natural gas and charcoal grills to help decide which one is best for you.

Charcoal Grilling and Benefits

The backyard chef’s favorite challenge is to create the perfect fire for grilling to produce that mouthwatering smoky taste! Most popular and with about 80% of all American households owning one, is the Barbeque Grill. Approximately 47% of these bbq owners are cooking with good old charcoal. With brands such as Weber, clearly the most popular charcoal grill sold, as well as a household name, one might dismiss other quality charcoal grillers. But brands such as Brinkman and Hibachi are sought-after as are lesser known charcoal grillers Arctic, Meco, Aussie, Texas Pit Masters, Uniflame, Capital and Thermos, Fire Magic and others.

If you are looking to find the right barbeque charcoal grill, you are in luck. Why? Charcoal grills can add an extra smoky flavor to your grilling that Gas Grills can’t! And, these grills are affordable to suit any budget. That said, if you buy a fancy one with deluxe features, the price tag will be higher. However, compared to an outdoor gas grill featuring mechanical parts and a more complicated design, charcoal grillers are just more economical.

Which charcoal barbeque to buy?

Begin with a few simple questions. How many people will you be grilling for? Does the bbq need to be a specific grill type such as: portable, Stainless Steel or Cast Iron? Are you looking for a particular brand: Weber charcoal grills, Brinkman charcoal grills, Hibachi, Arctic, Patio Life, Meco, Aussie or something else

With a charcoal grill, if you are going to be cooking for a lot of people or just a few people, size matters. A small charcoal grill is 300 to 500 sq. in. cooking surface; a medium charcoal grill is 500 to 700 sq. in. cooking surface; and a large grill is 700 sq. in. and up. So make sure you are getting the size you that fits your needs. If you need something portable, take a look at the brands Weber and Arctic. You will find these to be lightweight and easy to carry. A lock-lid is a convenient portable barbeques feature for camping and outdoor picnicking. see: http://www.outdoor-fireplaces-and-patio-heaters.com/charcoal-grills.htm

Natural gas grilling and benefits

How many times have you wanted to barbeque on a Saturday night but were out of Propane Gas? With a natural gas grill you will never have to worry about the grilling disaster because you’ll never run out of propane while grilling steaks for friends. If you’re in the market shopping for a barbeque that will offer you great convenience and ease, then natural gas is the way to go. Why? Unlike charcoal grills, there is no waiting for the coals to heat up. With a natural gas grill you just push the button, turn the dial and ignite! And, since these barbeques are connected to the gas supply piping of the home, they are always ready for cooking.

How to choose the natural gas grill that’s right for you

It’s never easy deciding, especially when there are so many Outdoor Grill manufacturers to choose from: Weber, Broilmaster, Lynx, Fire Magic and many more. And besides the brands, you’ve got to figure out which brand model will suit your grilling needs. Here are some grill features to consider: What size cooking surface do you need? Does the barbeque need side shelves? Do you want a multi-burner system, meaning 2, 4, or 6 burners? Do you want warming shelves, a Side Burner, a grease catcher? And what about the grill’s appearance? Does it need need to fit into an outdoor kitchen? Or to match the décor of the exterior of your house?

Two great ways to decide are your particular budget and reviews. Read as many gas grill reviews as possible, talk to friends with natural gas grillers, and shop around locally and online. Whatever your needs and whatever you decide, adding a barbeque to your life, be it natural gas or charcoal, will never be something you regret. see: http://www.outdoor-fireplaces-and-patio-heaters.com/outdoor-gas-grills.htm

Gas bbq Grills | Buy Quality!

If you are looking at gas BBQ grills, you might want to be very cautious about which one you invest in. It pays in the long run to buy a good, quality one.  

Many of the cheap grills that are made today, look and have many of the features of the gas BBQ’s that cost hundreds and even thousands more. They are usually sold in big-box stores and on the internet. 

They may come in Stainless Steel, with one or more side burners, infrared burners. They look impressive and well-built, but most are not. 

They are not designed for heavy use and will not hold up, or perform as well as well-built Gas Grill. Remember you get what you pay for. 

If you are trying to save a few bucks, forget it, you’ll probably be sorry you didn’t spend a little more to buy quality a gas BBQ, maybe even sacrificing some features that you would have liked to have. 

If you purchase a cheap one you run the risk of having to figure out a way to transport it to the local dump, or having to bribe your local garbage pickup person to haul it away for you after using only for a short while. 

And, you will ask yourself, “Why didn’t I buy a good one to start with?” 

In 1989, I invested in a top-of-the-line gas BBQ that I had converted to Natural Gas. At the time I paid top dollar for it.  I still have that BBQ. And, I use it all year around! 

I live in an adverse climate for barbecuing during the winter months. Of course, I have taken care of barbecue. It is kept under a covered area, and I put a Heavy Duty cover on it when not in use. Further, it is maintained and cleaned on a regular basis to keep it in tip-top-shape. 

Now, had I bought a gas Bbq Grill from the local “big-box” store for a couple of hundred bucks, I don’t think I would have had the same luck. 

In essence, you may have to spend around five hundred dollars or more to get a good one that will last.  Plus, you will get more features and a better warranty. 

Cheap gas BBQ grills are more of a hassle than you may want. Read all the reviews, spend the money and get quality. You thank yourself for doing so.
