I already know how to barbecue.
Why should I read this book?
Your Weber Genesis II LX is different to other
barbecues you may have used before. This book
will show you how to master Weber’s ‘direct’
and ‘indirect’ cooking methods, so you can cook
incredible food you may never have thought
possible on a barbecue.
We’ll show you how your Genesis II LX works and
you’ll find some suggested methods and recipes to
get you started, but remember – barbecuing and
outdoor cooking on a Weber should be an amazing
journey!
We encourage you to get to know your new
Genesis II LX, master the Weber cooking methods,
and then start experimenting! Try different foods
and cooking styles. Take your favourite tried and
tested recipes and try cooking them on your
Genesis II LX. Even better, add your own flavours
to make them your own.
Above all, have fun discovering the magic of
outdoor cooking and entertaining on a Weber
barbecue.
If you have any questions, or just want to talk
about your ideas or recipes, we’d love to hear
from you at Weber customer service.
Why should I barbecue with the lid down?
This is one of the greatest things about your
new Weber Genesis II LX. It’s actually been
specifically designed to be used with the lid down.
Over the last 60 years, Weber has perfected lid
down cooking to create incredible flavours and
memorable meals.
Whether you’re barbecuing or roasting, by cooking
with the lid down, you will create an amazing
barbecue flavour that you just can’t get by cooking
with the lid open. This comes from the barbecue
smoke that is trapped under the lid. It circulates
around your food, giving it a wonderful flavour.
With the lid down, the heat produced by the
burners circulates evenly around your food. That
means you can use your barbecue to produce
amazing outdoor roasts, pizzas and desserts. But
even when you’re grilling things like steak, chops
or sausages, cooking with the lid down results in
beautifully seared, evenly cooked food with more
natural juices retained.
Finally, the Genesis II LX will save you time, gas
and money. Instead of wasting gas on producing
heat that escapes straight into the atmosphere,
your barbecue is finely tuned to be as efficient as
possible, but still easily powerful enough to sear
restaurant quality steaks, chops, sausages and
chicken.
We’d like to introduce you to your new Weber® Genesis® II LX barbecue
