Genesis Grill Flavorizer Bars 17.5in and Heat Deflectors - Stainless

In this review of the Genesis Grill Parts kit, the bottom line is straightforward: this set is for owners of older Weber Genesis 300 series grills who need durable replacements that restore even heat and protect burners. The kit includes five stainless steel flavorizer bars and two stainless steel heat deflectors sized to match Genesis E, S and EP 300 models, and it delivers on fit and material quality without fuss. If you want a straightforward repair that adds a bit of smoky flavor while preventing flare-ups, this is a practical choice.

Key Features

• Complete kit: Includes five flavorizer bars and two heat deflectors so you can replace the common wear parts in one purchase.
• Correct sizing: Flavorizer bars measure 17.5 in x 2.25 in x 2.375 in and heat deflectors are 13.25 in x 8.75 in, matching Genesis 300 series geometry for reliable fit.
• Stainless steel construction: Heavy duty stainless steel provides better corrosion resistance and longevity than painted or thin alternatives.
• Flame protection: Bars prevent direct contact between food and flame, catching drippings to protect burners and reduce flare-ups.
• Even heat and flavor: The bars help distribute heat more evenly across the cooking surface while adding a mild smoky flavor.
• Easy to clean: Non-stick, water-resistant surfaces clean with soap and water for low maintenance.

Who It's For

This kit is aimed at owners of Weber Genesis E-310, E-320, E-330; Genesis S-310, S-320, S-330; and Genesis EP-310, EP-320, EP-330 who need replacement flavorizer bars and heat shields that match original dimensions. It is particularly useful for people restoring older grills where original parts are worn, corroded, or missing.

People with Genesis II 300 or Genesis II LX series grills should look elsewhere because the parts do not fit those newer models. Also, if a user specifically needs coated or porcelain parts to match a particular factory finish, these all-stainless replacements will differ in appearance from some original components.

Pros & Cons

Pros
