Burner Placement Question
Hello all:
Looking at buying a new gas grill. Is the front & rear burner arrangement better that side by side or the other way around. I would think that side by side is better for slow cooking with indirect heat. Thanks in advance!

Just turn on the front burner and it works fine for indirect. -- Steve Men are from Earth. Women are from Earth. Deal with it.

: Hello all: Looking at buying a new gas grill. Is the front & rear burner arrangement better that side by side or the other way around. I would think that side by side is better for slow cooking with indirect heat. Thanks in advance! We had a Weber with 3 burners - front, middle, and rear. This grill was always a joy to cook on no matter what we were cooking. We used the rear burner for slow cooking. Last summer we bought a Brinkman Pro with 4 burners - left to right. For high temp cooking we can reach and sustain a higher temperature 650-700°F that we could rarely approach with the Weber. Our best high temp with Weber was about 550° F. As far as slow cooking, the Brinkman has been easier to adjust and maintain the 225 or 250°F. we prefer. I think we've also gained a bit more room, since I only use one of the side-positioned burners. That leaves 3/4 of the cooking surface available for indirect heat. With the Weber, only 2/3 was indirect. -- Wayne in Phoenix If there's a nit to pick, some nitwit will pick it.
