Today, Trevor is reviewing the new SMART Weber Genesis 2022. There are very few in stock so we are super happy to show you this BBQ! Watch as Trevor gives a quick review of the Genesis and dives into what makes it a "smart" grill.
This grill definitely comes with some upgrades compared to the regulars 2022 editions. First off, it comes with a lot mire lights. there are lights inside of the grill and and also light up knobs. These are both upgrades for the smart edition. Next, you gain more access from the app to control your grill. Such features as monitoring the temp of your grill and turning the lights on and off are available through the smart functions! This is so cool and a huge upgrade for the future of smart grills!
As always we appreciate you taking the time to watch our videos. Please leave a like, comment, and be sure to subscribe! Let us know what you think of the Smart Weber!!

Thanks for the review, but a few comments:
1.) Why would you want to control the interior lights by the app? The lights automatically turn on when the lid is opened, and turn off when the lid is shut.
2.) Temp control by the app would be cool, but I hope no one grills while they're "away from home" :P
both very good points
FYI my original Weber from the 2000s had the same batteries in the handle for lights. Stopped working around the same time as the starter lol
really?
@@embersliving yeah I wish I could remember the model. The BBQ lasted 20 + years
The i grill sucks the bluetooth doesnt have enough range if you walk away like 15 ft it disconnect from your phone and doesnt notify u that it has and doesnt automatically reconnect whats the point mind as well buy a temp stick because u will be right near the grill anyways
thanks for the feedback
“I’ve read in the comments that I talk too much…” proceeds to talk too much
Haha 😅🤣
Another great review. I went with the E335 in the end. The price difference in the UK for the smart features didn’t quite stack up for me. Light features are great though. Oh and ignore whoever is commenting that you’re talking too much!?! Isn’t that the point of a review 👍🏻
Haha thanks! Good choice
If Webber can make temperature control a key feature in the "Smart" part in the future, that will be game changer for the gas grill. The Pullet grills already have this feature today.
1000% agree
Dude, your video is only 21-minutes long. I've done videos that were 2-HOURS long and people appreciated them immensely. If you are providing information, there are people out there (LIKE ME), who want to see and hear that information. Be thorough because most people appreciate that. Or, do a cliff notes video and then a full blown video and give the people with short attention spans a choice to be less informed. I've never bothered with being less gabby because I'm just a gabby type of guy but people have really appreciated the fact that I am very thorough and they like my personality. As a matter of fact, a gentleman bought me the 4-burner version of this very grill because of my gabby videos! Now I'm going to make some of my own grillin' videos and this brutha' can grill!
Keep up the good work. 😉👍
nice! Thanks for watching! have fun grilling let us know what you think
I'd like adjustable wheel height as most ground is uneven, I currently have a 20mm lump of wood under two of the wheels to make it level. Cheers
wow there ya go
Your reviews are thorough and honest. Keep them coming
Thank you! Will do!
You don't talk too much, at all. Very informative and insightful. Really appreciate it thank you.
I almost bought the Genesis II SP335 but couldn't justify it.
Now I'm torn between the Smokefire EX6 and this one. Ribs, burgers, chicken, steaks for 6-8 people.
What say you? If you could only pick one... :)
Glad it was helpful!
just wanted to let you know that your reviews and comparisons helped me significantly. Thank you!
Glad to help!
Any chance to have you include insights on the various grills specific to how easy or difficult they are to maintain (clean), with one focus on the drip pans? When looking at the Weber and Napoleon Prestige Pro 500, their drip pans seem to be a bit of a pain to pull out and put back in as opposed to let's say, Bull, Artisan, Blaze, etc. Thanks for the always informative videos...!
Napoleon pro all the way. We have more videos coming with comparisons
@@embersliving Has Napoleon modified the location of the drip pan and/or simplified how it is removed/replaced? I like that they sell the aluminum liner pans but it's getting the actual pan out and back in while keeping the cart doors out of the way and or internal wires. Thanks!!
I don't have special insight into the options available, but I'm impressed by the 2022 weber pull out tray that brings the drip pan with it.
What advantage does the thermostat have at reading "ambient temperature" that a "thermometer in the lid" does not (like the one in every Weber)?
PS. Lighting is silly to me... On a baby q yes cool it might go camping but who grills at home in the dark?
They have similar roles
How do the electronics hold up in light rain? I use my non smart rain or shine here in the PNW. Curious if the smarts will make less versatile for that reason? Thanks
I'm not really sure to be honest
The Weber Smart grill has to be plugged in or runs on battery?
Reply
Plug it in
So you can't tell the temperature unless it's plugged into mains or a battery pack?

I think the knobs seem a lot cheaper and less robust compared to the Genesis 2 models. They should’ve went with the metal knobs like they did in the spirit series redesign given it‘s the more expensive series.
Metal knobs would be great
whoever says your "talkin too much" must not like the golden content your providing- keep on keepin on man- thanks!!
lol we want to keep making long format content!!
thanks
I know this video is old but is there a way to add that lighted handle to the other models as it is battery powered and the same handle?
That im not usre about. There has got to be some sort of attachment
The front handle looks the same as all the other 2022 genesis it should bolt right on if it was available as a part for sale I would think
Does the Stainless version of this had the light up knobs ?
I actually have not seen that one!
Great review! The USB-C port can be found on the control box (the box next to where you plug in the mains). It's under a white sticker and has a red rubber plug in it.
I've just built my EPX-335 in the UK and don't have any way of knowing what the fuel level is. I was wondering if you would be happy to share some photos of the analogue gas measurer as I can't work out if the US version has something different or if I'm missing something. Thank you 😊
Hey Adam! You can see the meter behind the propane at 4:01. There's no red metal piece like the others that shows you from the outside. Instead you have to open the cart and look.
@@embersliving Thanks for the reply. I got in contact with Weber and asked why the US model has the gas level indicator and the UK model doesn't. They said that our gas canisters are different to the US and the gas level indicators are built only for the US market gas canisters. Bit disappointed to find that out, especially as we pay about £400 more for the same product (the equivalent of about $2,230).
The purpose of grilling is to disconnect to the modern world and give homage to the beginnings of man with fire. If you have to connect your grill like you connect your phone and apps… I’ll pass.
haha ok
I don't think Cavemen used Gas Grills 😂
Caveman had Grub Hub...👍👍👍👍
I'm a bit late, but you are a bit wrong with the wiring to the lights on the handle. Here are plenty of wires on the market which can stand 180°C or even higher when not PTFE covered. The batteries so close to the warm area worries me more. I think that it is a design problem. Finding a nice route for the cables would cost many ingenering hours.
Question…..What are you thoughts on the Saber Grills and there cooking system that prevents flare ups and a more constant heating surface
not to sure about that grill
Weber genesis or Napoleon Rogue Phantom??
napoleon
My big question was will the digital temperature component work after a brutal Chicago winter?
The office reference was my favorite 😂
😁
When you said Weber had an announcement coming up I was thinking/ hoping it was something in their kettle lineup or something charcoal. Especially since you was comparing 4 different kettle grills. I’m sure this thing is cool it’s own way but I’m rather disappointed
this isn't it. Youre on the right track though haha
Might be awhile before you hear about that announcement again. As soon as we know we'll let you know!
So they are coming out with something new in the charcoal lineup? Interesting
@@kevincantrell1459 This isn't the special announcement, but we do have weber Kamado videos coming soon.
Wish I could afford the Weber kamado. That’s the only grill I would ever need! Or atleast that’s what I tell myself. Looking forward to the videos I believe they had a gas assist model without the cart but I don’t see that one anymore.
how does this stack up against the camp chef apex with side griddle?
Which model is this ?
sx-335 smart grill
It’s only smart, I guess, if you have efficient WiFi/ internet.
Alas though, living on an island , the Internet is not as reliable as yours- hence why I would love you to do the best charcoal grill for 2022 please
Have had Weber before, but to be honest, after reviews, I think I would now try Napoleon.
we are working on a new video for that
This grill, or the prestige 500?. More bang for your buck! Thank you in advance
prestige all day
Weber recommend having the bottle outside the grill in EU, is that different in the US?
that I am not sure
I hear you can use a power bank to power it up instead of plugging in? any vids on that?
no videos, but that is true
Aside from its smart functions, how well is it built? Which is built better the Genesis or the Summit? Thanks!
that is about the same
Talking too much saying nothing.
How long is the power cord and is it manditory that it needs to be plugged in to power the temp gage and light up the knobs? The igrill at least runs off of batteries.
so you can run an external battery on this
Is this grill available in a stainless edition? Been looking around but only finding it in black.
Yeah. But they haven’t come in yet
Why is there an extension cord running from the wall to the grill, is it for the led thermometer or the lights? i.e. what is necessary to run from electrical power?
yes that is correct
@@embersliving I watched a video since yours and it showed a USB port that a battery bank can be hooked to the Grill for power. 3:30 in this video shows it, th-cam.com/video/zisZXSnzL78/w-d-xo.html
Hello good stainless steel cleaner for my BBQ
good idea for a video!
What are the model numbers for 2021 vs 2022?
the didnt change the model #
So the new Weber Geneis' are by no means worth the premium. They are well within Napoleon range which gives you much more for your money
agree
@@embersliving what Napoleon is comparable to this model in features and price? Why is Napoleon better?
th-cam.com/video/0cBuE2JWAew/w-d-xo.html
How would you rate this against the spirit epx-325s?
genesis all day long
Thanks for this review, happy I went with the Napoleon Phantom Prestige 500.
Good choice!
Sorry but the smart grill is not the only model with the interior lighting. The SP-E 235 and SP-E 335 also have the interior lighting.
Ok
@@emberslivingN.P just want peeps to know. Great vids!
@@Sneerk312 Good info thanks.
Does the SX-335 have the interior lighting also?
I do NOT believe it does. SP stands for special edition.
You talk to much. I wanted to hear about the grill and why I should buy one.
Sorry
You took 3 minutes to say the smartgrill was the same as the stand alone unit......I wish you would bookmark features so we can avoid the unnecessary chatting
We have started doing that lately ! Thanks for watching!
Let's have a video on smart feature...but I'll start 8 minutes into a20 min video
haha
i like the smart grill look the new light is nice. I feel like the smart features are for newer people to bbq or people who dont stay by grill. for me it needs to have stainless steel grates. i dont see how u can talk too much reviewing grills you need to explain all the features.
Ha thanks
We would like to know how much hotter the sear station is and it looks like they made the fire box much thinner.
I don't know how much hotter it gets but its 3 burners right next to each other. People have said In the comments its thiner. it looks the same to me.
@@embersliving Well the reason I bought up the sear burner on this model is in the past I asked you about an older model and you stated it was about 700 degrees,which is not as hot as say one of their competitors. I have a Weber s340 LX which at 50 degrees ambient temp hits 960 degrees at the grate.This unit does not have a sear station so the whole grate is one big sear station.It has a boost mode on the dial and note the total btu on this is about 43000 btu it gets hotter than the hinges of hell ! When the ambient temp is 60 degrees or above the grate temp is well over 1000 degrees.When I got this grill
it would only go to 400 degrees and I traced the problem to a defective regulator which Weber promptly replaced. I will take a set of veneer calipers and measure the thickness of the Firebox and report back.Always in joy your reviews,the best 👌
On your stainless vs cast-iron I have both but prefer cast-iron!! Thank you for chiming in and keep up the good work.
Hi - sorry, but I just bought the SP-E-335 has 9 mm grates and lights without the smart feature. It’s a special edition.
It arrived to me yesterday and I am excited 😃
Nice! We will be doing a full genesis review with every model soon!!
@@embersliving I wrote “with” I meant to say “without” I edited the comment
Thanks again and good luck
Marvin A.
I bought the same model. Love it
They need to take notes and learn from recteq pellet grills. There smart app and smart technology is hands down the best you can get.
I keep hearing that, we are trying to review one, but they won't work with retailers like us
Don't worry about those folks claiming you're talking too much.
Also, I love that you reset for jump cuts, and your editor just says Nah to the effort.
Haha
