With the Weber Gas Barbecue you can grill, barbecue, roast and bake with results that are difficult to duplicate with indoor kitchen appliances.

USING THE STEAM-N-CHIPS SMOKER The Steam-N-Chips Smoker cooks with both Weber FireSpice Wood Chips and Chunks. For best results with faster cooking foods like steaks, burgers and chops, etc., we recommend using the FireSpice Chips because they ignite and create smoke faster. For longer cooking foods such as roasts, chicken and turkeys, etc., we recommend using FireSpice Chunks because they ignite slowly and provide smoke for a longer period of time.
MAINTENANCE Spider Stopper Guards DANGER Your Gas Barbecue, as well as any outdoor gas appliance, is a target for spiders and other insects. They can nest in the venturi section of the burner tubes. This blocks the normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow back out of the air shutter. Figure 5. This could result in a fire in and around the air shutters, under the control panel, causing serious damage to your barbecue.
