Cooking on a hotplate increases the versatility of your barbecue. It's great for cooking breakfast items
such as scrambled or fried eggs, sliced mushrooms and tomatoes, hash browns or pancakes.
Hotplates are also great for burgers, frying onions, cooking beef patties and toasting burger buns. You
can also make toasted sandwiches and char grilled vegetables.
The WEBER CRAFTED griddle is made from heavy duty, porcelain enamelled cast iron. This will result
in more even heat retention and a better cooking result.
Preheating for the WEBER CRAFTED griddle:
Whenever you use your GENESIS for hotplate
cooking, it's important to preheat the barbecue
first with the lid closed. This ensures the
porcelain enamelled cast iron hotplate is at the
right temperature when you start cooking.
To preheat your GENESIS for hotplate cooking:
1. Check that all burner control knobs are in the
OFF position and check with the supplied tank
scale that there is sufficient gas in your bottle
(for LPG models).
2. Open the lid.
3. Remove the right hand cooking grill, place the
WEBER CRAFTED frame kit into position and
place the hotplate onto the frame kit.
4. Turn the gas supply on at the source.
5. Light all 3 main burners according to the
instructions in the owner’s guide. Adjust the
burners to MEDIUM.
6. Close the lid and preheat the barbecue with
the 3 main burners on MEDIUM for 15 minutes.
Cooking:
1. After preheating for 15 minutes, your barbecue
is ready to cook. Leave the burners on
MEDIUM unless a recipe indicates otherwise
and you are ready to cook.
2. Open the lid and place your food on the
hotplate.
3. Close the lid and cook for the estimated
cooking time (refer to the relevant recipe for
timing).
