IGrill - don’t waste your money

I purchased my second Weber Genesis grill 4 years ago (4 burner). Love the grills. New one came with an IGrill. Thought this was a great idea. It didn’t work and Weber sent me a new one. It worked but connectivity is a mess and my router is only 20 feet away from our grill. The real issue are the probes. I think I have gone through a minimum of 12 it might be closer to 16. When they work its great but its short lived. They start giving out all sort of random measurement or just continuously increase in temperature making the alarm go off. And no matter how much you try to be gentle and take care of them they break. Just buy a thermometer.

I wish I would have listened to what the previous reviews written on the I Grill and I wouldn’t have bought one

We apologize for any confusion, however our products pair via Bluetooth, not WiFi. To help with pairing, we suggest resetting your iGrill 3 by following these steps:
- Hold down the power button for 15 seconds - Open your phone's Bluetooth settings and either "Unpair" or "Forget this device" - Open the Weber iGrill App and pair
I bought the iGrill a few weeks after I bought the Weber gas grill. It takes the guesswork out of grilling. More importantly, it frees me up to work on other parts of the meal.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Thermometer

Hooked this up today and it worked great on a pork tenderloin. Who knew I’d been over cooking these for years. Blue tooth was a little difficult but worked through it. Want two more probes. What is the number that fits the iGrill3? Only see the ones that fit the 2. Will they work? Love Weber products!

Thanks for your review! All iGrill products use the same probes, SKU 7211, which can be found here: https://www.weber.com/US/en/accessories/cooking/igrill-and-thermometers/7211.html?cgid=1339#start=1
If you are interested in an ambient probe, you can find it here: https://www.weber.com/US/en/accessories/cooking/igrill-and-thermometers/7212.html?cgid=1339#start=1
I bought the Igrill 3 online due to not being available at my local Lowe’s. I love my Genesis II E-310 grill but the I grill 3 makes it the most awesome grilling ever! If you don’t have it GET IT NOW!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great way to monitor temp

I just bought the Genesis II and decided to also get the iGrill 3. When I am cooking pork or poultry, I am always opening the lid to take the temp so this accessory has been a great addition to my grilling arsenal. It works well but the only draw back is the cord holder is clumsy so I swapped it out with velcro cable ties and it is disappointing that Weber wouldn't just include 4 probes. The device has 4 ports but only comes with 2 probes so if you want to monitor 4 different items, you will need to order additional probes. Also, for whatever reason, Weber is focused on Apple and not Android. I can't imagine that there are more Apple users than Android but that is their focus. The iGrill 3 app works fine on my Android but the other Weber grill app, with recipes and stuff, doesn't. It is Apple only...seems short sighted to not support a huge part of their client base.
There's no system for storing the temperature probes. The cheap plastic discs they came with both broke completely upon unpacking and there was no instruction or indication what they were to be used for anyway. So, now, I have two dangling, dirty probes that I'll likely never use. To me, it was a waste of money.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
