Hi All,
I apoligize if this has been covered elsewhere. I tried to search the forums but was not able to answer my questions.
Basically I have an older Weber Genesis Silver C.
Over the last year or so it seems to have really slowed down its cooking abilities. It takes longer to cook virtually everything...steaks often seem rarer than I expect after X amount of time.
Can someone point me in the right direction to diagnose what might be causing this ?
The regulator looks fairly new and the tubes do not have holes.
Ignitior works and I took off the flavor bars and took a couple of pics of the output. On low and High. I didn't notice anything note worthy, though I am not sure what to look for honestly. The gas and flames go clear through and nothing looked plugged visually ( see pics below) When on high the thermometer reads 500. though i do not know where it is taking that measurement from. For some reaso the back right of the grill seems to be the hottest.
The flavor bars are older and have rust on them, but I didnt see why this would affect their heating ability? I think they are stainless steel but am not positive. Does the rust make a difference?
The grill is stainless steel.
I really would love to get the grill to cooking well again. I do not care about the cosmetics of it. and really haven't much $ to spend on it.
Any suggestions on what to try and replace or look for?
And its a propane grill...
Really appreciate any insight.
