All-NEW UPDATED WEBER Q (2023 MODELS) | History and Evolution of the Weber Q Grill 

Hi from New Zealand Love your Channel with all the tips! I have the new Family Q 3200 plus model in black with the hot plate, roasting trivet and pizza stone. Awesome bbq! I love it. It cooks a mean roast chicken with the outer burner on low it sits at a stable 200 degrees celsius. I did a low and slow leg of lamb for 7 hours with just the middle burner on low and it sits at a constant 100 degrees celsius. Awesome results, still learning but so far really impressed! Regards

Your content remains relevant regardless. I use a Napoleon travel q and your weber techniques works perfectly on my grill also. Thanks for keeping the channel going!

In Australia here and picked up a Sky Blue 3200n+ earlier in the week. Used it everyday since and it’s truly been amazing! Very happy with the purchase!

Hi Jerry, I'm from Australia and been cooking on the Weber Q's since released in the early 2000's, always gone for the model with higher lid and temp gauge. I've recently bought the Weber Q3200 just before the new models were announced and now since seen them in the flesh....ok to me there's just been a slight design of shape and yes some have the middle burners, in particular with the mid model as it's been often said that the heat grunt in the 2200 models were a bit weak compared to it's little brother and big brother but now it seems to have a boost for grilling which is good but the jury is out on the low n slow capabilities at present as they are too new for many to test them, I don't need that myself as I have my Charcoal Kettles to low n slow. I'm cooking frozen pizzas on my Q3200 as I type this to you......Mine is the Natual gas version and I've been told by my local Weber dealer that the Natural Gas version won't be available till either December or early 2024. Just to finish, you will get them eventually but I think the reason that Australia and New Zealand has been the release location is because we are now coming up to BBQ season now (summer) and Australia is the top sales location for the Weber Q, they still sell like hot cakes 20 plus years later. And as you can see, they come in all sorts of wonderful colours.....cheers from Australia

G'day from Australia. Yes, I looked at the new Q Plus models and wanted to see some reviews of them on YT (That is why I clicked on this video, I wanted a review). I liked the extra burner down the centre but also wondered about the heat distribution like you did. I am holding off till I see some proper reviews. They have really dropped the price of the old models so they are tempting me as I don't currently have a BBQ (against the law in Australia not to own a BBQ) as I moved interstate and left the old one down in Melbourne. I have to get something soon as it is coming into Summer and people will notice if I don't BBQ occasionally at least.

The drip tray excess from the front is a game changer

I appreciate that you shared the previous iterations before highlighting all the new changes and how you expect them to affect the performance. Well thought out video, I'm hoping these grills come to the US market soon! Question we're all wondering: which new grill size(s) will Jerry be getting?

Spotted the new models at Mitre10 here in New Zealand a couple of weeks ago. Will probably stick with my original Family Q320 as I can easily keep an eye on the temp gauge from inside the house. We cook on the Weber year round and having the gauge on top of the lid means we'd have to go outside to view it. At the moment I can see what the temps are doing with a quick glance from my chair.

I got sent a weber 2800n+ to review and I freaking love it. The third burner really adds to the grill’s versatility and it heats up super fast if you want it to.

Hi, I'm from Australia and I have just purchased a Weber 2600NQ+, I have not cooked with it as yet, just out of the box, I will keep you posted as soon as I get used to it as I have never cooked with a Weber but always with an open grill BBQ. I will watch your videos for tips.

CG, really well presented video on the older and new Webers. It explained the adavantages and possible disadvantages of both in a balanced and informed way. Good stuff, keep up the good work!!

Have had my Q for over a decade. Still going strong and use it all the time! Great grill!

Hi Jerry! long time subscriber here!! Ive had my Q2200 since 2018 and it still functions perfectly. Its left outside continually here in UK and there's no rust as you'd expect. I do rub down the plastic parts now and again with a thin layer of coconut oil and the whole thing shines like new. Absolutely love the Q2200, its already perfect in my humble opinion, I wont be upgrading. Thanks again :)

Hi From Australia Just picked up my new Weber Q1200n Baby Q what a massive improvement over the version 2 Weber Baby Q

I've had my Q220 for at least 12 years and it's awesome....this year upgraded the griddle to the new ceramic 2 piece and it's like new again ❤

Fire Escape Griller is ESSENTIAL. MUCH Thanks Chicago Griller!! ✌

Oooh, I think I still prefer the 2nd Gen body style. Thank you for bringing this info to us!

Just bought my Weber Q1200N couldn’t be happier with the upgrades

Hi Jerry. Am in New Zealand and yesterday received the Q2800N+ as a surprise birthday present. Am new to Weber BBQs and so far learning a lot from your chanel. Will report back with results! Cheers mate.

I am from Australia and purchased the new Baby Q 1000N yesterday. Must comment on the very clear instructions for the table, and packing for all was exemplary. Spur of the moment buy, otherwise would have gone for 1200N. We thought the 1000N would have temperature guage and side tables 😢. First lesson learnt 😊

I have had the Q3200 LP Titanium(No +, Premium or N in the manual description) here in the US since 2017. It has the 2 burner knobs and center burner setup.

I was initially excited about the update. And agree low and slow is welcome addition, as the Q models don't run low, even at lowest setting. But I was hoping for side by side two burner set-up. I find it nice to have a hot section and cooler section on a grill to help with moving proteins that are starting to flair up to a cold grate and for indirect heat.

I’ve just gotten a q2800n over Christmas and am loving it so far! Unfortunately I haven’t owned a Weber before so I cannot do a proper comparison but I’ve gotta say I’m impressed with the quality and setup. I’m excited to see what it can do especially with the added burner.

hey, Jerry! I am in Wellington, New Zealand, and will be getting the new "sky blue" Q3200N+ once it releases for shipment around 3 November. I've also preempted the purchase by buying a 9kg bag of cherry wood pellets, so I FULLY intend on making use of its low-and=slow capabilities ;) We've been without a BBQ in our yard, and I've been researching grills for months and got really lucky that the new Q line released at the perfect time for our buying cycle. Cheers for all your content-has really helped my decision-making with choosing Weber.

I bought a Q1200 a few years ago. Love it except there is no hot side/cool side as on a larger 2--3 burner grill. To solve, I purchased a griddle plate for half my grill and keep in under the grill grate on the right (grill grate stacked above solid griddle plate) preventing direct heat on one side. Now I can sear meat on left side and move to right side to finish without burning. Grill lid doesn't go all the way down as it used to but works great for me.

Because of you I’ve purchased 2 q2200s! Paired with our Weber performer…still cheaper then 4 burner genesis and the ability to take two grill while camping! Keep up the great work! Dennis Aptos CA!

Cheers from BRANTFORD Ontario. I'm looking into one of these to ad to my BBQ collection. Thank you

6:07 Just recently I was thinking the center was cooler because the air comes up from the hole in the center and out the sides so IMO that area is cooler.

I’m glad you gave a shout out to fire escape griller! Now known as “Gallagher’s grub”! he is def the OG!

Does the new version have cut out controls as running off bayonets in caravans without it is illegal.

Have you tried the + series yet? Wondering about low/slow capabilities.....thnx!

Your presentation was very informative! Thanks...

I bought my Weber Q1200 about nine months ago. I hope Weber will continue to offer suitable accessories and spare parts for the 2nd generation for a long time? I'm also curious when the new Weber Q's will go on sale in Germany. Another interesting video from you. Best regards, Uli

great video. I am in australia and am looking at upgrading. I have a Q100. You answered all my questions

Had my webber family Q for 10 yrs still young 💪 and noooooo issues at alllll

As an owner of an original baby q bought brand new in '04, I can't imagine getting another one just because it works so well. This grill has been run hard and put away wet whether in the back of a truck in a motorhome you name it. I did upgrade some stuff on it. New stainless steel burners, and I got rid of the cast iron grate was rusted and I figured I'd try the stainless steel grate instead which I believe I got off at eBay. It works great I think but that's me. Think the only problem with the original series is I can no longer buy The wing trays for it anymore. Something changed on the new ones will not fit.

Better low and slow would be very welcome as here in the subtropics of Queensland the idea of having my indoor oven on for any length of time is unthinkable. Will definitely check out the new models and report back.

Thanks for the update sir! You are the man!

Still waiting for the specs and pictures for the 3600n built in. Can't find any details or pictures anywhere on line. Local supplier said they will have them in January (NZ) for $1,399 NZD so will pick one up then. Had the mid sized one for years and it has been great, and still going.

Do you know if the Q2800 Pro is compatible with the WEBER Q Series Black Compact Grill Stand and/or the WEBER Q 1000/2000 Gas Grill Rolling Cart?

i have the Weber Q 1400 and I love it :) cant have gas grill

With the addition of the new burner down the middle, are the two outside tubes spaced further apart? With the center burner turned off, a wider spacing of the outside tubes would create a larger indirect cooking area. Thanks in advance!

I found an add on on my Weber Q 200. Add a 12inch pizza stone wrapped in foil to the grate. I havefound many use for it Cheap too

What about the fat tray relocation? I am from Oz. I have the previous model baby q. After what you said about the new model and replacing all the accessories because they are not interchanagable I am happy with my current baby q. Weber is a bit like Apple with their iPhones except that Weber is better quality. I like that blue version you have. I suppose you have to be a Cubs member to receive one. I could take photos for you of the new weber q so you can see how the inside looks.

From Australia. Can’t find anything from Weber etc re how to use the N+ burner as yet. It’s all a mystery. So far I am using trial and error. We have a 3200N+

Hi Jerry. I am in Auckland, New Zealand but I bought my 1200 model only last December so I'm unlikely so get a new one now :( but I'll keep an eye andn send you photos if I see one of the N models inthe shops.

Way to go Jerry!! well done explanation and reassurance..Much Appreciated!!!

Informative video Jerry thx👍

Excellent job!

That's the video I was waiting for

Yes I have seen one and I have one in my garage ready to set up lol

The new models also have the drip tray at the front so you can easily see how many earwigs crawled in overnight :)

I'm from Perth and seen the 3200N in demonstration at launch in the Weber store, the cooking surface is bigger and the searing function looks ok, I think it's a gimmick, all said it's not a worthy upgrade from the previous generation, If one really cares about searing or cooking surface then he should upgrade to the Genesis series, I'm really happy with my Q3200 and intend to keep it for now

Saw the new Q1200n and didn't like the changes. I use the side tables a lot, put the pans, bowls... Heavy stuff and they work well. The new ones are smaller and fells weak. The cooking area is bigger but I don't know if this is a plus because when my q1200 is full at max gas it lacks the performance so the new area pm the 1200n at full will work less efficient and that is because as basically the same burner. I do like the new way to put the tray for meat juice. For me does not worth the price to "upgrade".

Great job!

Jerry - In the US, where can I find the saucepan & rack holder?

They don't rust out like every grill I've had. Parts are also easily available.

BTW They are advertising the new models quite heavily here on prime time TV!

Have a 2800n+ model on order. Cant wait👍👍👍

Hi Jerry, yet another very informative video: Thanks a lot for this one. Over here the new models are not available - but I really don't care. Why: First of all to me the 2nd burner is pretty useless. Like you said we already have a hot spot in that middle zone - and 2ndly : Long jobs? Really ???? Like a 15 hours job for a brisket and burning a complete tank of gas ??? Not my cup of tea .... I'm rather thinking of purchasing a rotisserie for whole chicken and pork roasts. Maybe the rotisserie is worthwhile purchasing for you to improve your setup ??? In my eyes this would be a real update aka game changer ...

Do you have a review for the webber q1400 electric grill? I have a q1200, love it, but cant use it at my current apt. So i got the q1400 electric. Thank you

Have just bought the new 2000N model in New Zealand (where they are kinda expensive). Unfortunately, I didn't notice when in the store that there is no thermometer in the lid. I loved that about the big old model I used to have. How annoying and disappointing!

Shits me that they changed the body size so the new plates don’t fit the old model. It’s now hard to find anything but the N models on shelves here.

Do the newest N+ models accept screwing a 1lb tank directly to it?

Thank you as always!

You forgot to review the electric Q.

My gen 2 model is still kickin' & grillin'. I'll replace it when it dies.😂

My friend says he wishes he would have never sold his older Q Family Grill. He says these new ones are made in China.

Thanks for this video. It finally cleared up a question I've had for a while about my grill being one solid piece of iron instead of 2 like yours. The new plus burner for slow cook is a good point. I'm waiting for more test results to decide whether to upgrade. There aren't many videos about it though, I only find this 1: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mKDe5d5nLvA.html.

Why aren’t the new models released in the US initially?
