It was well-used, not working, missing parts, and pretty much covered in dirt, dust, and whatever grease was hanging around from their last 2004 cook-out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They told me about their little\u00a0<strong>Weber<\/strong>&#x2122; and said they were about to take it to the curb. Then they asked me whether I wanted to salvage any parts from it first. It was in sad shape, but rather than kick it to the curb, I asked if I could just throw it in the back of my truck and take it home and assess it. I found the model and serial number. Turns out it\u2019s\u00a0<em>20 YEARS OLD<\/em>! Built in America by\u00a0<strong>Weber<\/strong>&#x2122; in May of 1999. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, this little\u00a0Genesis\u00a0had some life left in it! I scrubbed, degreased, and scoured it clean. I replaced the burners and flavor bars. I cleaned the igniter contacts and fit it with a new, up-to-date gas line and regulator, and then polished it up!<br>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Not only does it like like new, but works like new too!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It fires up on the first touch of the igniter! The coated steel cooking grates are original and cleaned-up beautifully with our degreasing process and a little elbow grease. Everything from the igniter to the built-in thermometer work great! I updated the gas line and regulator to today\u2019s safer versions. You can see that even the fuel level gauge still works, 20 years later!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We invested less than $100 in parts to get this 20 year old\u00a0Genesis\u00a0back to safe working order, and it\u2019s ready for another 30 years of service in Scottsdale Grilling Paradise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let it be a lesson to all of us\u2026 Don\u2019t give up on your grill! Call me and we can take a look at it together and decide if we can save it or not. You never know!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Has Your Grill Seen Better Days?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether it\u2019s an expensive model or budget model, if your grill is still partying like it\u2019s 1999, give us a call or email us at <strong>Barbequeservicepros@gmail.com<\/strong>.
