My Weber was pretty easy. It comes partially assembled, so you only need to assemble the stand, really.

You'll really like that cover, it's not your typical 20 dollar vinyl cover that's going to rip after a couple uses.

Congrats on the new grill.

Ditto on the cover. Mine still looks like new after a few years.

Not as difficult as waiting 2 weeks for it to arrive with BQed meat on your mind.

I'm not what you called mechanically inclined, but I put mine together myself over two nights. First night I basically got all the parts out, made sure everything was there, and got up to about step 3, then I did the rest in night 2.

just curious if anyone with the weber genesis 300 series has purchased the smoker box accessory.

Apparently for 90 bucks you can buy a little smoker box that fits into the side of your weber genesis grill... It comes with a stainless steel grill that is reduced in size to allows for the smoker box to fit in like it does on the Summit (except no dedicated smoker burner of course.)

At 90 bucks, I think it is a little steep, but I found it here for $39.

The only thing I don't like is the smoker box itself is porcelain enamled and not SS... hmmmm contemplating on ordering it.

David, I'm not sure how well that will work without being directly over a burner/heat source, but it may be fine. For $15, I've had decent success with one of these. It is placed under the cooking grates, directly on top of the flavorizer bars near the heat.

My only complaint is the volume of chips it holds. I've often thought of picking up a second or third tube.

There is another tread a couple of years backs where tt mentions about mixing wet and dry chips. It's a good tip.

I had the same thought (about not being over a burner), but it is an official weber accessory so who knows.

I also saw some of these:

I wonder if those would fit between the cooking grates and flavorizor bars?

I've used one similar to that but not on a Weber. On mine, Charbroil I think, the smoker box worked pretty good.
