Weber Cooking on Gas

When cooking on a gas barbecue, we recommend you always cook with the lid on. It helps the heat to 
circulate evenly and seals in that smoky flavour we all love. Food stays succulent and no heat is lost, so it 
cooks quicker too.

GRILL

For small cuts and food that takes less than 20 minutes to cook.

  • Light all the burners and turn up to full heat.
  • Allow the barbecue to pre-heat for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Place the food on the cooking grate and close the lid.
ROAST/BAKE 


Using this method, the gas barbecue works like a fan-assisted oven. This is great for all kinds of cooking, including roasts, bread and cakes.

  • Light all the burners and turn up to full heat.
  • Allow the barbecue to pre-heat for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Switch off the middle burner(s) and arrange food above the un-lit burner(s).
  • Turn the other burners down to medium to lower the temperature and close the lid.

​

50/50 


As the name suggests, 50/50 allows you to cook on a gas BBQ directly and in-directly at the same time.

  • Light all the burners and turn up to full heat.
  • Allow the barbecue to pre-heat for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Switch off the middle and right or left hand burners.
  • Sear food over the lit burner (direct heat), then move over to the un-lit area (in-direct heat) for slower cooking.
