Armed with the strong GS4 grilling system, this gas grill is sure to take you and your meals to the next level. A warming rack and fold down left side shelf are included with Spirit II. The left and right Blackstone Adventure side shelves have integrated tool hooks. Both sizes have the same features and are available in LP and natural gas models. LP models have Weber’s Fuel Gauge, which estimates your gas tank level by weight.
After adding just a little oil, the grill grates were perfectly seasoned, which we weren’t expecting. Whether it was burgers, hot dogs, or veggies, just about everything we threw on this grill came out as desired. Could we cook multiple dishes at once, or were we forced to make each part of the meal piece by piece? For weeks, we cooked everything from burgers and hot dogs to veggies, steaks, and more. We independently evaluate all recommended products and services. If you click on links we provide, we may receive compensation.

To monitor the cooking temperature, we generally don’t rely on thermometers built into the hood. Instead, we placed our digital thermometer in the middle weber spirit 2 area, and it registered a cooking temp of 295°F. At that temperature, poultry cooks gently and thoroughly while developing delicious brown skin.
The main burners pack a whopping 30,000 BTU-per-hour input. Even with that amount of heat, we experienced very few flare-ups—probably because of the flavorizer bars—which kept anything we were cooking from getting charred by accident. While the Weber Spirit II E-310 is Weber’s entry-level gas grill, it packs a lot of punch performance-wise and was our best-reviewed gas grill for putting gorgeous sear marks on burgers.
