I expected more from Weber... Great idea but poor follow-through for the price. This app is "half baked". Don't waste your money!
Nice but one feature to add.

Nice app. One feature i would like added is when switching to the grill timer from one of the other areas and back the program remembered where you were. As it stands when going back and forth from the timer screen you have to re-select the reciepe or item you are cooking.
Great 1.0 - bit more is needed...

I am not upset about the $5 bucks I spent on this. I hve all the weber grilling books but I wanted this for convenience. Here is what I think is missing: From the grilling screen where I select what I want to cook, the timer should start from that screen - and the timer should include a pause in case of flare ups. I shouldn't have to go back and forth from the grilling info on how long for direct and the back timer, then back to grilling for how long for indirect then back to timer - it should be - if I chose a steak, and choose it's thickness and ALSO chose my desired cooked method - and the program givese back - 6min direct High, and 20min indirect medium, from right here I should be able to start the timer accordingly! My other suggestion is more meats - ie. Bottom Round Steak is missing, or allow for a basic steak to cover other steaks not mentioned or allow me to enter my own configurationso I can automate how I prefer to cook my food in the grill. Having said all this - I'm happy, and I look forward to updates!!!!
One feature is missing

On the plus side, there's enough recipies to keep you grill'n for quite awhile. Also, the grilling guide is great, as it tells you the temperature and cooking times for all kinds of food. The issue I have is with the "grocery list" feature. It's very handy if you're the one going to the market. However, if your spouse is going, there's no way to give the list to someone else. You can't email it, text it, or even copy/paste it. That makes this seemingly handy feature useless for me. Fix it, and I'll be very happy with the app.
A solid first revision

A reasonably large number of recipes, but by no means the complete collection of recipes found in the numerous Weber and Weber-Sunset Magazine collaborations. In typical fashion recipes are separated by type of meat & vegetable, but once in a category they are sorted alphabetically by the name of the recipe, not the cut of meat. It would be great to be able sort by cut of meat within each type, e.g. all rib recipes within the pork category. All steak recipes within red meat.
The cooking time feature is logical and easy to use, but often there is only one thickness. I know many cooks ask for thicker or thinner cuts from their butcher, so having a larger number of thicknesses or selectable thickness you could adjust (like the timer) would be really nice.
There is a serious problem with the timer. Unless your phone is awake it will not go off. Until this bug/omission is addressed, stick to the timer that comes with the phone.
The shopping feature is very handy.
Finally, on the chance that the folks at Weber are following these reviews for ideas. iPhone 3.0 supports bluetooth, it would be over the top cool if in future versions this app communicated with a bluetooth enabled Weber Style Digital Thermometer. (Even better if it could display 2-4 thermometers something I often use with a smoker or multiple types/cuts of meat.)
Perfect

A man, a grill, and an iPhone. What could be better? Maybe a woman and beers waiting for you inside...no, wait the beer needs to be next to the grill. Awesome app!
Needs updates

This is a great app, BUT, I have had this app since early last summer and there has been no updates. I'm a member of weber nation from the weber website. This is free to sign up and weber sends me a differant BBQ video every week. I was hoping weber could update this app with more videos. Weber, update this app with BBQ videos once a month and it will be by far the best BBQ app out there and worth every bit of 5 stars. But for now I can only give 4. Sorry guys.
Good app

Good app. Love the feature of the grill guide. I do wish you could change the doneness there and start the grill timer in that function as well. The grocery list is top notch. Can't wait to try some of the recipes.
Good

Great concept, great layout. I would give it 5 stars if it had an e-mail option. Say I wanted to share a recipe with my wife? It would be great if I could e-mail the recipe and grocery list to her.
Great app will be better when you can export the grocery items lists.

I love this app, lots of tips and hints. When it lets you export or at least email the grocery lists then i'll give it 5 stars. I use the GROCERY G app for my groceries. It will be great when I can export my Weber ingredients list to my GROCERY G app so I can get my stuff and start grilling.
I like to see an Update2.1

I love this app. I do have a couple of suggestions. First a way to organize by types of food rather than aphebetical (have all beef together under red meat). Second, I could not figure out how to start the timer in the recepie. Third, keep adding recepies.
Awesome App

This is a must for Weber fans. The first app that I purchased, and I think it is informative and helpful. It's also very easy to use. Would like to see some recipes reflect the WSM though...perhaps for the future.
