Real-World Consistency:
• While there will always be a slight gradient with the center being hotter, the cover creates reasonably uniform heat zone over their width. The heat variation across the 4 inches is minimal compared to the difference between directly over the bar and in-between two bars.

3. V-Shape Design:
• The “V” shape helps distribute the heat more evenly across the bar’s surface by deflecting heat outward.
• This design also helps to vaporize drippings evenly, which adds flavor and further evens out the heat over time.

2. Edges of the Bar:
• The edges are slightly cooler since they are farther from the flame’s core.
• Heat dissipates laterally, so the radiant energy at the edges will drop off a little compared to the center.
• The edges are slightly cooler since they are farther from the flame’s core.
• Heat dissipates laterally, so the radiant energy at the edges will drop off a little compared to the center.

1. Center of the Bar (Directly Over the Burner):
• The center, where the burner flame is directly underneath, receives the highest concentration of heat.
• This area will radiate more heat compared to the edges.

• This area will radiate more heat compared to the edges.

The radiant heat across the 4-inch width of the Flavorizer Bars (burner covers) is not perfectly consistent, but Weber’s design does a good job at minimizing major variances. Here’s what happens:

The width of the burner covers on a Weber GS4 grill varies slightly depending on the specific model, but they are typically around 3.5 to 4 inches wide at their widest point. These V-shaped covers are designed to evenly distribute heat and catch drippings, vaporizing them to add flavor to your food.

However, keep in mind that real-world factors like grease buildup, airflow, and lid position can cause slight variations. If you’re looking to sear or cook something quickly, these spots above the burner covers are where you’ll get the most heat.

. Theoretical Hottest Zone:
• In theory, the center of the grill and directly above each burner cover will have the most intense heat when burners are set evenly.

2. Heat Concentration:
• The radiant heat from the burners beneath the covers and the heat deflected upward by the V-shaped covers combine to create the hottest spot right above them.
• Areas slightly off-center from the covers might be cooler due to less direct exposure to the radiant heat.
• The radiant heat from the burners beneath the covers and the heat deflected upward by the V-shaped covers combine to create the hottest spot right above them.

Yes, that’s correct! On a Weber GS4 grill (or most gas grills with similar designs), the hottest locations are generally directly above the burner covers, which are often shaped like an inverted “V” or angled plates. Here’s why:

So the burners usually have a cover in a V formation, you're saying directly above that cover would be the hottest location theoretically?

To confirm, you can perform a toast test:
• Lay slices of bread across the grates and run the grill for a few minutes.
• The darker the toast, the hotter the spot, giving you a visual map of heat distribution.

2. Variations with Lid Closed:
• Heat circulates when the lid is closed, but the back of the grill tends to be hotter due to airflow and the way most grills are designed to vent heat upward and out the back.

1. Directly Over the Burners:
• The hottest zones are usually right above the active burners. If all burners are turned on evenly, the center burners often create the hottest area due to combined heat.
• On your grill, the left and right outer edges might be slightly cooler due to heat dissipation
