Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2024
I have owned several Weber products and am a happy user of them. They work great, they last, and I recommend them.
The first meal turned out great.
During my first initial use, I experienced the blowing ash problem which others detailed in their reviews and used some water in the pan to retain them as suggested. In all fairness it was windy and I used Publix Greenwise 100% wood lump charcoal and it does burn quite hot and much of the ash was initially from some newspaper that did not burn completely yet fell through the vent. Next time I plan to use the Weber Paraffin Cubes in my Weber Rapidfire Chimney Starter, which I highly recommend, and see what the results are. I also may try a modified coffee can or something that has more depth to it, but that will still provide adequate airflow.
Assembly is easy, great pictorial directions and all you need is a Hammer, block of wood and a Philips screw driver. The lower vent assembly was a little tricky for me to get completed as I found the damper/ash door had a little spring in the sheet metal and you have to put pressure on it from the top in order to slide the handle into the hole, with the spacer on the bottom being hard to hold, it required some dexterity to accomplish. I just placed a bag of charcoal on top to free my hand from holding it down. You could also bend the sheet metal to fit a little more flush but you may risk the chance of deforming it incorrectly in the process.
The build of the grill is great typical Weber quality, though they got some heat a few years ago for stating "Made In USA", from what I saw and what's listed on the box states it's is Made in the USA but from a mix of parts sourced from all over. I only ever owned Weber Gas Grills and the quality on those was always quite good, I read the gauge or thickness of the metal changed, but it looks like this will hold up well for the most part but time will tell for how long.
Aside from the ash pan which could be deeper, I really have no complaints and am happy with my purchase. I do now prefer cooking on charcoal, it's amazing how well it cooks and how good the results are.
Still getting use to closing all the vents after the cooking is done to drop the fire and having a hot grill on the patio for several hours. A video I saw on the net said to not use water to cool or put out the hot charcoal since it will damage the porcelain finish, I tend to agree.
This is perfect for about 6-8 burgers or 2 chickens cut up. You'll need to experiment a bit with your style of cooking, but the Weber kettle provides the most even and complete cooking solution compared to other grills I've used. I think it has a lot to do with the specific shape and how it moves the heat around.
One thing you need to know about the charcoal is that once it catches, you should use your lid to control air flow and how fast the charcoal burns. Left off, you won't have coals for long because it is that efficient.
While this isn't a wood grill, a few chunks of wood on the charcoal add some nice flavor. Or if you prefer and have a longer grill time planned, there are those wood cold smoker boxes that can be used on the cold side of the grill and you can get hours out of that.
When the grill is new, remember that it must be broken in a bit. Don't fire up and throw your meat on immediately. Wash the rack thoroughly and I prefer to do a first run fire that I don't cook on. Make sure the rack and the grill top are put on so that anything that could remain on the surface from manufacturing is cooked off. After this first run, or a first run that lasts at least 30 minutes, then food should be fine to put on without risking any residue in the combustion process.
Some will likely call this overkill, but skilled grillmasters will also acknowledge that the best grills and smokers are those that have been broken in. This accomplishes both, though the latter is arguably a gradual process over time.
I don’t like gas grills even though they are quicker to light.
