Weber Spirit E-330 Gas Grill

Gas grill from above. The lid is open to show metal tents covering the burners. There are shelves on both sides.

The Spirit E-330 was introduced in 2016 to replace the E-320.  The 330 and 320 are identical except, the 330 adds a 7,500 BTU sear burner between the left and middle main burners, (shown right). The three stainless steel main burners are 10,600 BTU each, and a 12,000 BTU side burner is integrated into the left work shelf. It remains the largest Spirit model with 424 square inches primary cooking surface and a 105 square inch warming rack.

A big change for Spirit in 2013 was reconfiguration of the burner layout. Burners used to connect from left to right with control knobs on the right side shelf. The new Spirit burners connect from front to back with control knobs on the front panel. This not only frees up work space on the side shelf, but provides better performance when cooking indirect or 2-zone. Indeed Weber Genesis, Summit and most other manufacturer’s gas grills follow this burner design. Also included is Weber’s in cart LP tank fuel gauge that gives an approximate indication of fuel level by weight.

The E-330 has black porcelain enameled grates, flavorizer bars, housing and single door enclosed carts with stainless steel work surfaces. The lightish hood is made of porcelain-enameled steel. The stainless work surfaces have cast aluminum end capes with built-in tool hooks. It rests on four casters (two locking) and has battery powered ignition.

Spirit was always a very basic, well made, serviceable BBQ grill line. The 2013 redesign offers significant upgrades and considerable value. Owners of previous Spirit grills may rub their eyes in disbelief as they behold these new cookers that barely resemble past models. Although Spirit is Weber’s entry level price point, it is still more expensive than many other popular grill brands. However, most Spirit owners feel the quality, durability and performance are worth the price.
