"It's been 30 years since Weber launched a line of grills as extensive and innovative as Weber's new Genesis® II, providing consumers with more choices than ever before to suit every life stage and lifestyle.
The Genesis II line includes eight new models that offer a range of price points (MSRP:  $599 - $2,249); sizes  (two, three, four and six burners); and a variety of features designed to accommodate today's griller. In addition, all of the grills feature a front-mounted docking station for the iGrill® 3 grilling thermometer—a Bluetooth enabled device that delivers grilling alerts and data directly to users' smart phones.  With so much to offer—from design to technology—the new Genesis II line is sure to fire up the grilling community in 2017.
Please click here to learn more about Genesis II.
As you are planning your grilling stories for 2017, we are sure your readers will want to know about Genesis II, so please let us know if you would like to test and review one of the grills, or if you'd like images or more details. In January, Weber is also introducing Weber Briquettes, made from 100 percent all-natural hardwood. "

I just saw these at the Lowe's, here in Carlsbad. I'm on the same page @fedex , I can't bring myself to spend over $1lb for these briquettes. I was really tempted, but passed this time around. I don't know if I can resist the temptation for long though... :-\

They have them at my Lowes, but like @Jason I can't bring myself to pay $1 Lb when I just paid .26 Lb for KBB.
