Weber GENESIS E-325s Grill Review | BBQGuys Expert Overview

The Weber GENESIS E-325s gas grill is where we start our review of the newly designed Weber GENESIS line, and we’re proud to say even the base model left our grill expert impressed. That would be the one and only Chef Tony, who put the grill through the usual paces to determine its quality, performance, and features from an objective standpoint. (Of course, that meant he also got to enjoy a couple New York strips fresh off Weber’s largest and hottest sear zone yet, but who’s keeping score?) From the impressive amount of commercial-grade stainless steel used in construction to the expanded usable space and everything in between, this Weber GENESIS E-325s grill review proves that the most popular name in grilling isn’t done innovating. And that’s not even factoring in the rock-solid performance of the upgraded burners and the nearly limitless culinary possibilities afforded by the new collection of Weber CRAFTED grillware! If this is the base Weber GENESIS grill, then we can’t wait to get our hands on the rest of them.

Your robust yet simple to understand review educated me on the key points to consider that anyone buying a grill would greatly appreciate. Thank you for all of your work behind this.

Love your thorough reviews! Right down to the thickness of components and temps. Solid editing on your videos too. The SP E-325 has the 9mm stainless grates, handle lighting, and Weber crafted inset for $130 more so I'm going with that one. I saw on your site Weber is raising their prices (AGAIN) on April 1st so it's a good incentive to buy now.

nice review, thanks! how are these for spare parts, easy to get? my current bbq after 5 years needed almost all the insides replaced and it was a real pain and now, 2 years later, some parts have totally been burnt off meaning i need to throw away a whole bbq because of a few small parts.

[parisfrederick]

Who edited this masterpiece? Good job!

[michaelsprehe]

is it compatibel with the 9mm stainless steel grates?

[joetoscano]

hello, I just received the 325 s for Fathers day and had a question on the burners beneath he flavor bars. I noticed that the photo starts to put them from the right side going left, should there be a big space on the left side of the burners?

[timothyjerry]

Nice intro. I’m
Looking at this exact model and this demo sold me on it. Thanks 👍🏼

[joannathomson]

THANKS for this video. PLEASE ADVISE: the fold-out upper rack you show in the video (part #64517 Expandable top cooking grate on Weber site) does NOT seem to come with the E-325 model, on;y with the older E-325s. The E-325 comes only with a single rack, which doesn't fold out, and is called a "warming rack" on Weber site. What's the difference p[ease and should I buy the expandable cooking grate to replace my smaller warning rack on the E-325? THANKS.

[threedog]

Thanks for the in-depth review. I just bought this unit yesterday, and don't think I'll be disappointed.

[whatfreedom]

I have that same grill. I’ve tried to find a griddle insert that takes up one of the three grates but I can’t find anything. It’s all for the spirit or the genisis II.

[dyates]

EXCELLENT job on this review. I'm getting this one today.

[shoobidyboop]

The GENESIS E-325S (s version) is not available on weber's site, only the GENESIS E-325 (non-S version) is. What's the difference? Is the S version discontinued?

[AliKhan-ftuu]

Nice review. Just got this bad boy today

[franciscoaguirre]

Hi this is the upgrade of the génesis E -315 right? Or what do you recommend the 325 or 315 ?? Thanks excelent review 👍🏼

[acdve]

I’ve used Weber grills for the past 40+ years, charcoal, Weber Performer, and gas, Weber Genesis approximately 20 years old. Thinking this is my next gas grill purchase.

[simonsmith]

Great and thorough review! Question for you guys, without looking at the new features, what's you opinion when comparing the 2022 Genesis to the last generation? Seems like the overall quality (thickness, solidity) of previous model is a notch above the new one. Might be an illusion but that's what it seemed like for me when I saw them side by side.

[GlaciusDreams]

Apparently this is a little known fact but the porcelain enameled cast iron grates should be placed with the flat side up, and the triangular side down.
The grill was designed to be used with this configuration.

[carstenb]

Is the gas bottle on the side or under the grill? If it is in one side, which side is it?
