EASY GRILLING....GREAT RIBS!
Reviewer : C. Barnes "Realtor" (Carriere, MS)

This rack works well. Using indirect heat, a drip pan with a little water in it to catch the grease and create a little moisture and you are set to go! The rack holds more than you think it will hold. Can be used for chicken breasts, quarters, etc. also. I spray my racks with a little olive oil before I put everything on the grill...this helps with the clean up....makes that job allot easier.

for skinny ribs
Reviewer : Eriocaulon (Broadview Heights, OH United States)

I typically buy baby back ribs. This rack just does not have wide enough spacing. Most of my ribs simply do not fit. I like the stainless steel but not happy with the spacing. I tried widening it but not the greatest results.

Works very well.
Reviewer : Eddie K. Stoddard "skemartion"

Weber products are always good. I bought another of these
at a local store and they work very well, but best with the
St Louis trimmed style ribs. The full racks come over too far
and will limit your load to 2 rack at a time without touching.

The trimmed ones are best anyway and use the trimmings for tasters.

Not bad to clean and the finish comes right back each time.

Product Description

The 22-1/2-inch Platinum Grill is loaded with clever extras that turn classic Weber design into a grilling machine. We start with two heat and weather resistant thermoset work tables to make grill-side seasoning and preparation easy. The grill and table are set in a rugged heavy duty steel cart frame and adorned with six handy tool hooks. To facilitate indirect cooking by heaping coals on either side of the grill grate, use the two Char-Basket charcoal fuel holders. We then added a convenient Tuck-Away Lid Holder to create a windshield for lighting the grill (and to hold the lid while you tend to the food), and tucked a wire storage rack below. Like its little sibling the One-Touch Gold Kettle, the One-Touch Platinum Grill boasts a stainless steel One-Touch Cleaning System, with a removable, black aluminum high-capacity ash catcher; a plated steel hinged cooking grate for easy, safe, and quick addition of charcoal; a no rust aluminum vent; built-in thermometer; a large front mount glass-reinforced nylon handle; and durable all-weather wheels with full wheel hubs. The result? A kettle so fancy we had to call it Platinum.

Amazon.com Review

There's nothing quite like cooking outdoors with charcoal, especially with the help of this sleek-looking, user-friendly grill. The unit features a durable plated-steel hinged cooking grate, which offers a generous 363 square inches of space for anything from barbecued ribs and corn on the cob to salmon or summer vegetables from the garden. Even more, the grill provides dual Thermoset work tables with plenty of room for platters, condiments, and sauces; six tool hooks for keeping spatulas, tongs, turning forks, and brushes within easy reach; and a built-in thermometer for monitoring the heat at a glance. Other highlights include a 22-1/2-inch-diameter porcelain-enameled bowl and lid, a rust-proof aluminum vent, and a large front-mounted glass-reinforced nylon handle, as well as two charcoal fuel holders, a heavy-duty steel cart frame, a wire bottom shelf, and two crack-proof all-weather wheels with full wheel hubs for smooth transport. When finished cooking, the grill's stainless-steel One-Touch cleaning system and removable black aluminum high-capacity ash catcher ensure easy clean-up. Durably built for long-lasting performance, the charcoal grill measures 26 by 50 by 41-1/5 inches.

Very versatile Weber Kettle Grill!
Reviewer : W. Bedford

I absolutely love the stability of the footing design on the Weber Platinum. Originally I was gonna buy a One Touch Gold, but the extra height, extra workspace and stability of this one made it a winner. Originally we were just going to use this on weekends.... We use it all the time now instead of our gas grill. The charcoal experience and smell always brings up fond "memories past" of charcoal grilling. The smell brings everyone back to a good place. When our guests/relatives taste the food, they are really blown away. Without a doubt, get the charcoal chimney. It provides a quicker and cleaner start than user lighter fluid. Your Kettles are excellent Weber. We are converted......

Best grill for the money
Reviewer : Brandon Fong (Sacramento, CA)

It cost a little one than the gold series, but it is stronger and better built.

Product Description

Not only do these grills live up to their name, they live up to the Weber tradition of quality, performance and long life. The premium version of the classic Smokey Joe Grill, the Tuck-N-Carry features a lid lock that secures the top in place for carrying. The lid lock lowers to serve as a convenient lid holder and wind shield, a must for grilling in unpredictable weather. Dampers are located on top of the bowl for quick, safe pack-ups.

Amazon.com Review

Perfect for cookouts, tailgate parties, or car camping, Weber's Smokey Joe Gold grill is the classic traveling grill. With its 14-1/2-inch-diameter grate, the Smokey Joe Gold easily cooks three steaks at a time or twice as many burgers. The porcelain-enameled bowl and lid resist rust and deliver even heat. When it's down, the lid lock doubles as a lid holder, letting you slide the lip out of the way while you cook. And, when the feast is done, simply fasten the lid lock over the top handle, pick up, and go. As an added bonus, Weber throws in a 31-page owner's guide filled with cooking tips and time-tested recipes for grilling everything from pork chops to bratwurst to Cornish hens.

Great Little Grill for Home or Travel
Reviewer : Al the Pal "Al the Pal" (The Fruited Plain, United States)

This is the third little Weber I've had in the past 20 years - I've never worn one out; the first two were stolen! I like the locking handle on the new model. One great feature of these grills is that when you are done cooking, you can close all the vents and the fire will go out in about 15-20 minutes, saving whatever's left of your charcoal for the next time. With the handle locked, it won't spill in the back of your pickup on the way home.

It really does do a great job of cooking, as good as the larger Webers, just for a smaller crowd. We had a Mulberry tree trimmed in our yard and I saved all the chipped up wood to use for smoke flavoring. You still need a charcoal fire for heat; just throw in a handful of chips before you put the meat & corn on the cob in and close the top vent down to make it smoke. Mmmmm, Mmmmm!

You can eat like a gourmet anywhere you tote this to! Just add a cooler full of longnecks.....

10+ years old and going strong!
Reviewer : Satureja douglasii "herbabuena" (United States)

I got this grill on the advice of a friend when we were in grad school. She'd been trying to save money, and bought a similar type grill from a different manufacturer. It didn't vent right at all, and she was right, this one does. Brand matters.

I've lugged it with me through something like 5 moves, and it's still fine. The grill has eventually accumulated rust, but it's nothing you can't scrape off at the beginning of the season, and besides they're always telling us we need more iron in our diets, right?

If I hadn't left it outside for a couple of winters the rust might not have happened. It doesn't look like it's going to wear out in my lifetime, so I guess I'll never have a chance to find out on a new one!

I like using the charcoal made of real wood chunks more than the compressed bricquettes (they don't last as long, but they taste WAY better).

Couple it with the Weber chimney starter, and you have a way of getting rid of junk mail, too! (Just don't burn paper with colored inks, *blech*.)

I fed 12 people on links and venison last Friday night with just one of these babies, started with the chimney (that part took only 30 min, honest to Gawd). Afterwards there were still enough coals left to roast marshmallows on fondue forks. (We didn't have real sticks available, OK? You use what you've got.)

I have a Diversitech grill pad under it to keep the heat and crud off my deck, and it works great.

Enjoy!

Much longer cooking time than Smokey Joe Silver
Reviewer : Joann Stadler (Brookfield, WI United States)

We love Weber grills and have been using a Smokey Joe Silver and larger Weber grills for 30 years. We like to camp and always bring our Smokey Joe with us so I purchased the Smokey Joe Gold becasue of the locking top and carrying handle. However, this grill has vents on the side, not on the bottom, so the air flow does not circulate through the coals as Weber grills are usually designed. It took twice as long to cook our food in the Gold as opposed to the Silver. It is good for transporting but not as good as the Silver for cooking.

Solid Value, Durable Grill
Reviewer : A.Trendl HungarianBookstore.com "What should I review next?" (Glen Ellyn, IL USA)

Though this is a portable grill, it is terrific for at home use if you're single, or have a small balcony apartment. It takes very little space, and is easy to maneuver when cleaning time comes.

I've used this gem for years. My apartments, on the whole, mandated the simplicity and efficiency offered up by the Smokey Joe.

A great feature is the rounded top. This enables better smoking, as air and smoke circulates more fluidly.

The downsides:
The legs aren't as sturdy as they could be. Given time, a bit of bumping around and general abuse, and the screwed on legs might turn askew. If you notice this while the grill is hot, you've a problem. The solution is to keep them tight during non-use.

The air intake at the bottom gets clogged with ashes. A key to good charcoal grilling is the manipulation of air flow. The intake might be open, but stopped up. If you are diligent to clean the ahes, you'll be OK.

Because the grill is so close to the ground, you need to be careful. Unlike most of Weber's grill, this one os also apt to getting kicked over, run into by dogs, cars and children.

I fully recommend Weber's Smokey Joe. Now, I'm hungry. Time to stir the coals and pop on a few brats.

Smokey Joe Exceeds Most Grilling Needs
Reviewer : WTRW Incorporated "Mark Heller" (Two Rivers, WI USA)

The smaller sized Weber kettle comes through with all the quality and performance as it's larger big brothers. For hamburgers, medium steaks, shish-kabobs, and small family get-togethers, the Smokey Joe lives up to its' family name. Food is prepared to your liking in quick order and domed cover returns heat from charcoal to cook evenly and retained heat and adjustable vents on top and bottom greatly reduces flare-up. Best way to start charcoal with this unit, is with electric starter, and only drawback we found is accumulation of ash in bottom of grill after a few uses. Cleans up easily, and 14" grilling surface is able to meet most needs.

Good for small patios, but not so good for travelling.
Reviewer : K. Morris (Silicon Valley, CA)

I've had one of these little Smokey Joes for probably 15 years now. It definitely has some strong points, but also a few drawbacks.

Pros:
1. Durable. Mine's been outdoors in the weather for 15 years now. When I give it a good cleaning, it looks almost new.
2. Cooks well. I've grilled steaks, burgers, dogs, etc. It does a nice job on them all. And it doesn't use a whole lot of coal to do it. I've got a 22 1/2 weber too, but sometimes when cooking for only 2 of us, I use the smokey joe to save on coals.
3. It's small and does a nice job in a small space like apartment porch or patio.

Cons:
1. It's inconvenient as a Portable grill when traveling. It's got no carry handle or way to seal it up. Also, once you've grilled and need to go, there's nothing to do with the hot coals. You've got to seal all the vents and wait for them to be extinguished. Even then I'd be nervous about dumping them out or putting the grill in my trunk.
2. The legs get bent out of shape easily. I never abused mine, yet somehow they always are bent out of shape. Sure you can bend them back again, but later on its the same story.

If I were buying a small portable grill today, I would go with a rectangular grill like the Weber Go Anywhere grill. The legs fold up and snap over the cover. Then you just pick it up like a tool box by the top handle and go. If you choose a propane version you avoid the problem of dealing with the hot coals afterward.

This cover fit perfectly over our new Weber 22.5 in. Gold grill and work table. The fabric is think and repels water. A must have if buying the work table!

Must have with Weber worktable
Reviewer : P. Sallmen (Murfreesboro, TN USA)

This item is essential if you have the Weber 7412 Work Table. It is the only cover that will fit over both your grill and table. In fact, the fit is great and adjustable if needed. It looks sharp and does it's job equally well. Highly recommended!

Fantastic Cover for Weber 18.5" grill
Reviewer : B. Morris

This grill cover fits perfectly over the side table and grill perfectly in both sizes, but I have the smaller grill (18.5"), it has sturdy Velcro straps to adjust the sides to fit perfect. This cover is definitely worth it becuase it is very thick and heavy as well, nothing bad has happened to my grill thanks to this wonderful Weber cover.

Weber's Go-Anywhere charcoal grill makes a great companion for camping and tailgate parties. This compact unit has a surprisingly generous grilling area--large enough to fit four medium steaks. You can lock the lid into place with the pivoting legs and carry this lightweight grill around in one hand. Built-in lid hangers allow you to rest the lid on the side of the grill to create an effective barrier against the wind. The triple-nickel-coated steel grate is easy to clean, and the porcelain-enameled steel lid and cooking box are built to last.

Efficient and Portable -- A Great Grill for Travel
Reviewer : B. Goldbeck "Travelholic" (Mongolia)

My first "Go-Anywhere Weber Grill," purchased in 1984, sold me on design and efficiency. After cooking my dinner, I'd shut the side and top air vents thus suffocating the fire. I found I could get two, three, and sometimes four meals from a single load of charcoal (depending on cooking times). And, on picnics, the fire would be out and the grill "touchable" after about 15 minutes. The grill is large enough to handle most meals for say 6 to 8 persons and even small (4-6 lb) chickens, but if you're cooking turkey, this isn't the grill for you. I'm now on my second "G-A" grill, as the first bounced around the world with me in Korea, Yemen, China, and the U.S. until the movers crushed it in 1993. Ended up contacting Weber directly when I couldn't find a replacement locally, and number 2 is in good shape after 8 years of rigorous use.

very nice grill
Reviewer : Dallas A. Babineaux "DallasAB" (Mackinaw, IL USA)

Hi there, I've just recently purchased this grill and have used it 2 times already. I can honestly say that this grill has exceeded my expectations! It is well built, and folds up very compactly for storage. It (like all Weber products) cooks very evenly, and refuses to flare up. The air dampers are easy to operate, and the porcelin coating will ensure many years of use. You will also be suprised at how much food you can cook on it. (I have 5 kids, and the grill is still hot when we've eaten our full) We enjoy it, and I'm sure you will too!

Great portable grill
Reviewer : ---- N. Miller "Be Honest" (Vermont, United States)

My grate just died after about 10 years of heavy use. Rather then buy a replacement grate, I wasn't thinking and just purchased a whole new portable grill. The next day I purchased a replacement grate online from the weber folks and that transaction was very smooth as has always been the case with Amazon. So now I have two functioning portable grills. It seems to me that the food sits closer to the charcoal on this then it does full sized grills, so heat has never been an issue with mine, although the charcoal may loose it's heat a little faster as you can't really make a pile of charcoal or stack the brickets very much. I actually think it is easier to burn things on this grill then others, and learning how to use the vents to control heat is something you will need to do. Honestly though, this is the only grill I have any real experience with and I love the portability and often wrap it in a trash bag and take it to state parks for 'eating out'.

My only complaint is they have changed the handles to plastic on the new models which now require mits to handle during the process. The old model had wood handles and I never needed a mit to take the cover off and check my food.

Char-Griller Patio Pro
Reviewer : Customer

I love to BBQ and I have had my 22 ½" Weber Charcoal grill for the last 5 years. The issue was for day to day grilling when I did not have any guest over, the Weber was just a waste of charcoal and time for light cooking.

I wanted something way smaller for my deck for only 1-2 people. Requirement had to be charcoal (of course). I searched around the market for a while and found that Weber and several other manufactures had mini charcoal grills. The issue was that most of them were low to the ground. They were all selling for $20-$30 depending on the brand. I then discovered the Char-Griller Patio Pro. After seeing the build material (cast iron) and the sturdiness of the support frame in which the cooking box sat on top of, I knew this was the product that would meet my expectations.

Delivery:
I ordered the product from Amazon and received it within ~ 4 days. The correct package arrived on time and undamaged, so the ordering experience was perfect. I arrived from work around 7 pm and saw the package at my doorstep and I was excited to grill that night. However, I had read the review of other customers who ordered this grill and I knew assembly was going to be a nightmare. Sure enough, assembling the grill was absolute HELL!! Needless to say, I was not able to grill the day the product arrived.

Assembly:
The grill will arrive with all the pieces for it within the actual grill box. Everything is sticky as it has been coated with oil from the factory, so make sure you assemble your grill in the proper location. The grill has numerous screws and mini pieces which are not clearly identified at all in the instruction manual. The instruction manual is absolutely worthless as its measurements for the pieces are inaccurate and in my particular case, I had less pieces that what the manual said I needed, yet I still assembled the grill without running out of pieces. I will spare you the agonizing details of my assembly experience and summarize it as: Assembling the grill is going to be the ONLY bad experience in owning this product.

USAGE:
With that said, the actual functionality of this grill is EXCELLENT. It is PERFECT for its intended cause...cooking for 1-2 hungry men, or 1-4 average people. The grate is made out of cast iron and requires to be initially coated in vegetable oil over 300 degree fire for 2 hrs (according to the manual). I recommend doing what I did to get the grill ready for use...in order to burn off all the factory oils and "crap," I just filled it to the rim with charcoal and left it to burn...when I came back, all the oil's, crap, and "new stink" disappeared and the cast iron grates were seasoned and ready for use.

The first time I grilled was excellent. The air ventilation system allows for even heat distribution so you can control your fire. Another excellent feature of this product is the cast iron grates...they get so hot and leave an awesome grill mark on your meat...something I could never get with the grate on my Weber.

In addition, the little tray on the side is a HUGE convenience factor when cooking. You can actually put pretty heavy things on it without worrying it will break. During assembly, when I felt the wood material that was used for the tray, I was extremely concerned because I thought when the grill would get hot, they would burn away. So far, this has not been the case, however, time will tell how long they last. But at the present moment, they are perfect. Not shown in Amazon's picture for this product is three little hooks that you have to manually screw into your tray, which will allow you to hang your cooking tools...another cool convenience factor.

Cleaning:
Cleaning is pretty easy too as the charcoal tray box easily slides out and you just dump the ashes into a trash bag.

Overall quality is excellent and I am pleased that the grill does not wobble. In my opinion, aside from the assembly experience, you will not find a better mini charcoal grill with all the features that this grill has [...].

Not the first review of this
Reviewer : David Lawrence Reckinger "davebuoy" (austin, tx)

This is the bomb. The instructions for assembly are poor but well worth the effort. Once you see the quality of it you'll understand. Cast iron grates that need to be seasoned will last a lifetime and beyond.

Great small grill
Reviewer : Matthew D. Walker "myspace.com/funnymatt" (Whittier, CA United States)

Great small grill- if you don't have a lot of room, this is the grill for you. The iron grates are great (pun intended) for even heat distribution. It is too small to use charcoal baskets, but if you scrape the coals to both ends you can do some indirect grilling. It's just big enough for a 5-6 pound beer can chicken. The assembly instructions are terrible, but as a guy that's half the fun. Be sure to properly season it before use- coat all surfaces with vegetable oil and fire up enough coals to burn for a few hours. It'll burn off all the excess grease, paint, etc. used in manufacturing.

Amazon.com Review

Made with durable, even-heating cast iron, this rugged, charcoal, hibachi-style grill works great for picnics, tailgating, car camping, or anywhere a self-contained outdoor cooking source is needed. The unit's cooking grate is also made of cast iron--a treasured cooking material that heats slowly yet retains its heat for long periods of time, making it far more efficient than aluminum or steel grates. The grill's cooking surface measures 17-1/4 by 9 inches and comes seasoned and ready to use. Easily temper the cooking speed of food by rotating the grate away from the heat source. The grill has two adjustable heights, along with a draft door that regulates the heat--so in addition to frying or grilling, the unit can warm a pot of coffee or chili. Coals are accessible behind a flip-down door. Other convenient features include four steady legs, a useful carrying handle, and a simple-to-clean design--just hand wash with a stiff brush and hot water. The Sportsman's charcoal grill measures 19 by 10-1/4 by 8-1/4 inches and carries a limited lifetime warranty.

Awesome and then some! Plus an update...
Reviewer : Gary H. Webster "ghw" (Atlanta)

I ordered this heavy (33 pounds) little jewel from Amazon a week ago, got it much earlier than expected and tried it out the day I got it. I now have 4 grills: An "oil barrel" type that is perfect for when the family tribe shows up, 2 Weber kettle types in different sizes for weekend entertaining and now the Lodge.

I've had several cast aluminum discount store hibachi's over the years and after the wooden handles fall off, the legs become impossible to tighten and then the "adjustable" supports for the grill crack. I don't see that happening with this hibachi.

Let the grill pre-heat, spray it with PAM and then enjoy the meal. The heat is even, cooking times may be a bit faster than you think, but the dish will be excellent.

HOWEVER! If one is cooking on a wooden deck, as I do, invest in some bricks or concrete pavers to go under the feet. Like all cast iron, this sucker retains heat and you don't want to burn your house down while entertaining guests.

Look for the book "The Honerable Hibachi" by Kathryn Popper. An excellent guide/recipe book.

I wonder if this would be safe to use in a large fireplace in winter months. Any ideas?

I'm thinking about getting another Lodge and then finding a home for the smaller Weber.

Get one and then enjoy your hibachi.

Update :

I've now had the Lodge Hibachi for 4 months and typically use it several times a week. Clean-up is even easier than it was when new. Remember to put a little olive oil or PAM on the grids first and the seasoning improves. In cold, rainy weather, the hibachi fits and cooks nicely in my fireplace (thanks, Ukiechris!), but I crack a window when I do that.

Although quite heavy, it's a great picnic grill and will easily cook chicken, steaks or burgers for 4 people. My Webers must think I don't love them anymore. I do, but the Lodge is perfect for 1-4 people and chicken cooked on the hibachi has a flavor my kettle or barrel grills just can't match.

Besides cooking for that tribal gathering, I'll let you know if I find something the Lodge can't do.

Wonderful Grill for Steaks and Burgers
Reviewer : B. Lefever (phila, pa)

A great little grill! Though I grew up with weber, kettle type grills, and even tried a trash-picked gas grill, I have never used a grill that cooks so consistently well.

I use mine with hardwood charcoal -- this gets the temperature hot, fast. As soon as the charcoal is lit up I spread the coals outward, drop the grill on top (on the high side of the legs), and let it warm up for a couple minutes. Once the cast iron is warmed up the heat radiates evenly across the cooking surface. To check the temp, I hold my hand 4 inches over the top of the grill -- if I can hold it there for more than a couple seconds, it is not hot enough. Without adding charcoal, I usually have just enough time to do two batches on the grill.
For steak, I leave the meat on for four minutes each side. When I pull it off, it has a nice crispy crust, and a perfect pink inside. When I cook burgers, I leave them on five minutes each side. And, chicken, I'll take a boneless, skinless chicken breast and pound it flat with a fry pan before tossing it onto the grill (this prevents the common problem of dry on the thin end and too pink on the thick end). Four minutes each side, and when the milky juice flows out when pricked with a fork, you know that it is perfect and juicy. I cook fish in a similar fashion. A little flavor tip: Some coarse kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper added to your meat before cooking is usually all you need to have excellent results.

Now, for roasting or smoking, this is not the product for you. Since there is not a lid it would be impossible to cook a whole chicken, for instance. Buy a weber for that. But a weber will never acheive the kind of perfect steaks and burgers that you get from one of these.
We have had our grill for three years now. It has lived outide our home the entire time in all kinds of weather - rain, snow, ice, or sun. And I was grilling in all conditions. I have performed absolutely no maintenance -- never oiled it, never cleaned the ashes. It seams perfectly happy in this state of useful neglect.
If you want a great charcoal grill, this is what you want.

Rescued from the Trash Pile!
Reviewer : Spyce

One of my friends received this as a gift to use for tailgating parties. After a few uses, he decided it took to long to cool off, was to hard to clean and had put it back in the box with the intention of setting it out with the trash! Fortunately before he did, he saw me looking at it on this website and asked if I planned on buying it. I said yes and he said don't because he had one that he was going to throw away. If I didn't mind it being used and a little rusty, I could have his. I took it. It was rusted but I scrubbed it, oiled all the parts, and seasoned it in the oven (it was still cold outside so I couldn't fire it up)!

This little grill came in so handy when we bought another house in the spring and removed the stove to make way for the new one. I cooked on it everyday. What my friend found as a disadvantage, I found as an advantage, it stays hot for a long time!

I grilled everything, half smokes, kabobs, burgers, chicken, veggies, fish, etc. . . and nothing stuck! I also grilled ribs on it. I sliced them into individual ribs, placed them on the grill, and covered them with foil (crimped the foil around the rack with tongs). They turned out really good. I used my little cast iron skillet on top of the rack to scramble eggs, and blacken steaks (lots of coals needed for that).

The grill is very durable and as long as it is properly taken care of will provide many years of grilling pleasure! I really like it because the grill rack can be put in the sink for easy clean up and as long as it's properly seasoned, I don't have to worry about my food sticking to it.

I also have a 22" weber kettle grill that I use when I want to grill a lot of food or large items. If I don't, I set this one inside of it on the grate and use it instead. This is an excellent grill for a small household, and I recommend it over the other hibachi type grills. It's great for camping but keep in mind that since it's cast iron it takes a long time to cool down, so start grillin' early!

Meco Model 4100 Outdoor Grill
Reviewer : CandyCluz (Texas)

This is the fourth Meco 4100 Grille I have owned. They have never let me down when it comes to regulating my cooking and my time! They are easy and time-saving to cook with. I have owned bigger, "easier" propane gas grilles but for the comvenience, nothing comes close to this little whopper! I will never own anything else again.

GREAT GRILL
Reviewer : Allan J. Jacobson (Philadelphia, PA USA)

My second grill of the same model. The first one eventually rusted out after 10+ years. I bought another, this time in red. But I would recommend black because the red wears out prematurely.

Great Grill!
Reviewer : Valerie "Valerie" (Michigan)

This is a wonderful charcoal grill with an adjustable grill surface which was the main feature we were interested in-- this feature is apparently hard to find-- my husband's family has used this grill for years, and we are happy to have one of our own now!

Amazon.com Review

Whether you're a backyard barbecue hero or a professional chef cooking for big events, the Char-Griller Wrangler's cavernous interior and even cooking temperatures wrangle up large quantities of delicious barbecue for any occasion. The Wrangler features 635 inches of cooking space to feed family, friends and neighbors. Heavy gauge steel and a double reinforced bottom offer years of dependable use.

The Wrangler is designed to accept rotisserie and side-fire-box attachments for a wide variety of versatile cooking applications. Large round legs offer sturdy support. A large drawer slides out and let's you add coals without removing the grate. --Brian Olson

Happy with my grill
Reviewer : K. M. Eichhorn (Brewerton, NY)

I am very happy with this grill. I looked at both the Patio Pro Model and the Super Pro model as well. I chose this one based on it's size, and that I wanted to be able to easily cook for myself or for a group of friends.

The grill arrived with a few dents in the body. I contacted Char-Griller and they shipped replacement parts to me immediately - they arrived within two days.

The set-up was fairly easy. The instructions recommend 2 people, but I was able to set it up by myself.

I seasoned the grill, and I have grilled 3 - 4 times on it now. Every time I learn a little bit more about grilling, and controlling the temperature on a charcoal grill.

Overall, I think this was a great decision for me. Sure, you can spend $10 more and get the Super Pro - but that is just more grill to heat.

Good grill for the money.
Reviewer : Nancy Hartwell "appreciates a bargain" (Vermont)

Assembly took a while but wasn't difficult. It is a lot of grill for the money.

Every home should have one.
Reviewer : Roberto Smith "callmeberto" (Kissimmee, FL USA)

There are a few factors that led me to choosing this grill. (1)Heat source - I am from Jamaica and we use nothing but coal! (2)Price - Bought it for right around the $100 price tag plus free shipping, that to me was a good deal. (3)Size - I didn't want a grill that was too large neither too tiny like the Weber Kettle. This was right in the middle, I could roast fish (seasoned and wrapped in foil)or Jerk chicken on any given weekend without using a whole lot of coal. The last social I hosted had over 40 people and this grill was the champ.. The Grates can hold a 10 lb bag of leg quarters and the warming racks can take quite a number of hot dogs. Its moderate size also meant less space for storage.

Assembly could be challenging for some but if you have the required tools, common sense and can read then you will be fine. I had the box with a picture of the grill on it in the same area I was assembling for reference.

The only concern I had with this grill was (as you can see from the picture) how to haul it. You had to hold onto the side shelf, which is constucted of a thin wood, to move it. Though properly secured with metal support, the wood shelf part feels like it could break off in my had if I wasn't very careful. Since I don't move this around everyday, I only notice it when that time comes.

I am very pleased with my purchase would say to anyone considering it "Go For It!"

CONVENIENT TOOL FOR YOUR GRILL
Reviewer : C. Barnes "Realtor" (Carriere, MS)

Convenient...handy....fits good on the Weber Round Grill. You just have to make sure that all of the utensils you wish to hang on it have a hole in them the right size and not too small. The tongs I bought didn't fit so I'll have to either improvise or look for other tongs that do fit!

YOWCH!
Reviewer : Seamus O'Gueira

Your tools may get incredibly hot while hanging on this tool holder. It also interferes a little with the lid setting properly. Technically, it does indeed hold your tools, but the heat issue deters me from using it. I don't recommend this product, even if it is cheap.

It does hold things.
Reviewer : K Man (Boise)

Works okay, but it does make closing the lid a little cumbersome which could mean a loss of heat while cooking.

No more blackened mixing bowls!
Reviewer : Sean P. Logue "If you can't win, change the rules." (Research Triangle Park, NC USA)

Before I bought this for moving charcoal the three feet from the container to the grill, I tried using tongs. The little bits always slipped out, particularly when using lump charcoal instead of briquettes. Took forever, too. Then I tried using a plastic mixing bowl. I couldn't get the charcoal to scoop well because the lip was too thick and the bowl wasn't the right shape. Plus, the plastic is now scratched and seems to be permanently black at the top from the charcoal. Clearly not the best idea I've had lately.

This scoop solved all that. It is large, and seems like it would stop a bullet. It has a nice polish that looks nice, while not collecting charcoal dust. All aluminum means it won't rust when left outside (as mine is).

Surprisingly good quality -- it looks like it cost a hundred dollars at a specialty store. Would make a good gift, especially if you notice that the griller in your life has been scratching up the mixing bowls.

Not just for ashes
Reviewer : Thistle (The Desert Southwest, USA)

I buy 50 pound bags of dog food and have been using plastic bowls to scoop out the chow into a bucket to carry into the dog pen to fill poochie's dish. After going through several bowls which tend to crack and break, I purchased this aluminum scoop.

Hot dog, does it work so much better than a bowl!! It's strong and durable and will last no doubt for many years. I didn't measure how much, but the scoop holds a lot, and I can fill a bucket in no time.

What else can I say about a scoop? It's strong, has a nice finish to it, it's easy to use, and holds a lot. In fact it's so nice, I'll probably have to hide it from the Grill King so he doesn't scarf it to use for the charcoal.

Very well made / heavy duty scoop.
Reviewer : Joshua J. Roberts "PingZing" (Denver)

I use it to scoop lump charcoal into our grill & works very well for this. Would purchase again.

HIGHEST Quality - greatly superior to the wire version tool holder
Reviewer : The_Tech_Son

Money well spent. I never was impressed with the tool holder from Weber that is made out of wire. The wire version is 1/3 the price, but you get what you pay for. I use my Weber kettle as a low temperature smoker (250 degrees), and it's vital to keep the temp constant for 6-8 hours. My initial concern was the the tool holder would cause an air leak between the bottom and lid, and create a problem, but the fit is tight as ever, and my latest smoke with this tool holder in place was the same as before using it. HIGHLY recommended addition to the Weber, so spend the extra money on this version.

The right way to round out the griller's toolbox. This 3-piece stainless steel set includes a spatula, chef's tongs, and a barbecue fork. Dishwasher safe. Made of stainless steel.

Amazon.com Review

A useful addition to any outdoor grill, this three-piece barbecue tool set makes it easy to move things around on the grill. Flip burgers with the 18-inch spatula, pick up shish kabobs with the lockable chef's tongs, or use the 18-inch two-prong fork to lift off a juicy steak. The spatula offers a slotted design for easy grease run-off, while long handles on all the tools help keep hands a safe distance from the heat. In addition, hanging loops on the end of each handle allow for keeping the tools within reach and conveniently stored when not in use. Made of professional-grade stainless steel, the tools not only look great, but they also promise high-quality performance for years to come. The spatula, tongs, and fork all clean up easily by hand or in the dishwasher.

Stands up to Weber Qualite
Reviewer : D. M. Edinger (New Jersey, USA)

Easy to handle and love that it is dishwasher safer. The tongs are the best I have ever used. I dont know why I waited

I Love My Weber Grilling Tools!
Reviewer : Diana de Avila "Gkygrl" (Malta, NY USA)

I take great pride in my Weber Genesis Silver grill. It treats me well and I enjoy the Weber name and quality ... so I decided to splurge on the Weber grill tool set. They are awesome. They are weighty, ergonomic and durable. Worth every penny whether you grill on a Weber or not.

Money well spent!
Reviewer : Ben Keeler "BBQ enthusiast" (Sacramento, CA United States)

I have used lots of different types of bbq tools and these by far are the best. The tongs are really where it is at, the other tools don't really matter as much. Some tongs aren't spring loaded unlike these which are and don't open very far, maybe far enough to grab a chicken leg, but that is it. These tongs will open to the width of a pork chop and the thing that I like most is the actual gripping surface, the jaws are nice and smooth so they will not tear skin! If your thinking that this set is too expensive at least buy the tongs individually, well worth it. I used to think that anything that had the Weber logo was just expensive because of the brand, but the more I use their stuff, the more I can justify the price tag.

A Valuable Accessory for the Weber Kettle
Reviewer : Daniel F. Moore (Yarmouth, Maine USA)

One of the few drawbacks, if you can call it that, of the Weber Kettle Grill is the lack of a shelf on which to place your food, cutting board or platters. I own the earlier wooden shelf that sits atop a frame fastened to one of the grill legs. It works well enough, but you can't easily remove the frame if you want to store the grill and you can't use a cover if the frame is attached.
Enter the Weber 7412 Work Table! The unit clips to the bowl and can be easily detached. The surface area is much larger than the earlier model too. The hard plastic construction assures that the table will stand up to even the most ardent grillers. The legs snap into place and can be easily removed for storage. One nice feature is that the table can be positioned anywhere along the grill bowl. This is accomplished by creating a cutout on the table that enables you to position it over one of the grill handles. The three pegs on the front of the table will hold your favorite tools too.
How much do I like this new accessory? I ordered a second one just before I wrote this review!! Now if it will only stop snowing....

A Must for the One-Touch Grill!
Reviewer : L. Villanueva (Sterling, VA United States)

This worktable fits perfectly on my 18.5" One Touch grill and it's the just the right surface area for plates and other cooking utensils. Very minor assembly required. Shipping time was quick. A great buy no doubt!

I don't know why I waited so long.
Reviewer : R. Thomas (Far Northern CA United States)

I have had a weber for 20 years and have always seen these tables around. I finally purchased one and am so happy with it. It's great, finally some place to set my food, instead of playing the balancing act. It's very sturdy and doesn't interfere with the lid catcher that I have on the side.

A battle tank, if you would.
Reviewer : "mrcoffeetv" (Minneapolis, MN)

I have had this grill for three years. It has been used almost daily for two seasons. Twice, I dropped the lid chipping the porscelin. It has been relocated by careless movers once. It still survives and is completely functional. Not only that, no parts have rusted on it. If I order a...lid, it will look like it just came out of the box.

Maintenance is easy. In fact, if the grill is emptied thoroughly, the ash catcher can be used to hold the rinse water if you are unable to clean it outside (you do have to empty it often). I have, in fact, cleaned this grill in my kitchen, with out much of a mess. It really hasn't been any more difficult then cleaning a regular oven.

Cooking is very even, the swing-outs on the grid make adding charcoal easy during indirect cooking. I purchased a set of rails to hold the charcoal to each side. I insert my drip pan in the middle, and then put more charcoal as needed in the grill without disturbing the food by opening up the swing-outs in the grate to add charcoal. This is a very handy feature. For direct cooking, you just place the charcoal over the bottom grid as per instructions.

The manual contains several useful recipies to get you familiar with this cooking device. I highly recommend reading it, and following its instructions. The Weber One-Touch Gold 18-1/2" is a worthwhile purchase if you are cooking for one or two people, and will more then pay for its self as compared to eating brats at the hot dog stand. Buy this grill, and you'll eat T-bones and baked potatoes for FAR less then at a steak house, for a very long time!

A Brilliant Design
Reviewer : A Customer

The classic Weber One-Touch charcoal grill is an example of excellent engineering and design. I recently purchased the 18 1/2" model and have found it to be very effective and easy to use.

The shape of the kettle and lid distributes heat evenly across the cooking surface. The heat can be easily controlled using the vents to allow more or less airflow. Easy to assemble. Cleanup is quick. The simplicity of the design means there is little that can break or go wrong with it.

Obviously the engineers at Weber put a lot of thought into how people will use the product and came up with a truly elegant design. Brilliant!

This grill is fabulous!
Reviewer : R. Prabhakara (Washington DC/Baltimore)

I am no pro at grilling, but this grill makes it all so easy! It was easy to put together, easy to use, and easy to clean up. Everything I toss on it turns about perfectly grilled and absolutely yummy! There are cheaper charcoal grills out there, but if you're a petite woman, like me, who doesn't grill for a living, it is well worth the extra money for the little conveniences of this grill. I got the 18 1/2 inch grill, and it has plenty of room for preparing dinner for 4-6 adults. Since putting my grill together, I have cooked out every weekend.

Amazon.com Review

Weber's One-Touch Gold kettle grill is a great buy for anyone looking for a classic model with a few convenient extras. The design is sleek. The results are delicious.

As with all Weber grills, this kettle's lid and bowl are constructed of premium porcelain-enameled steel--which means not only does heat radiate evenly, but the grill will survive if it's left out in the rain. The cooking surface (22-1/2 inches in diameter) is big enough to accommodate six large steaks, twice as many burgers, or up to a dozen kebabs, and the grill's classic kettle shape keeps flare-ups to a minimum.

When designing this grill, Weber clearly kept convenience in mind. The grill's nickel-plated grate has two built-in hinged side openings that make adding more charcoal briquettes easy and safe, and, when the lid's not in use, it can hang from the bowl by a handy hook. The grill is durable, too. The porcelain-coated steel bowl and lid are exceptionally strong and designed never to rust, fade, or peel. The grill's aluminum vents and ash catcher won't rust either, and its tripod base, nylon handles, and all-weather wheels--besides being exceptionally sturdy--make the grill remarkably easy to maneuver. Weber's patented One-Touch cleaning system--a clever setup of lever-activated blades--sifts ash out of the kettle and into a cooking-pot-shaped ash catcher. You never have to get your hands dirty--and emptying the kettle takes only a few seconds.

To top it all off, Weber throws in a 31-page owner's guide filled with cooking tips and time-tested recipes for grilling everything from pork chops to bratwurst to Cornish hens.

This is the one to get
Reviewer : rishman (Barcelona, Spain)

You're probalby thinking that there's no reason to update the 10-year-old Weber you've got in your back yard. Well, turns out Weber has made some smart improvements over the years-- the new "gold" model is worth the upgrade.

The ash-catcher is super, the one-touch vent system is a big improvement (no more knocking each vent with a trowel), the plastic handles stay cooler... you get the idea. Nothing dramatic, but good progress.

But here's the clincher: setting one of these up (takes about 20 minutes, even if you make a mistake or two) just makes you feel like you're in heaven. It's summer embodied. People rhapsodize about the new car small... well, fughettaboutit. The look of a shiny new grill that you've assembled yourself is about as good as it gets.

Highly recommended accessory: the charcoal companion. Put your lighter fluid (or your MatchLight) away and use this instead-- it works flawlessly, and it's better for the environment.

Hard to beat
Reviewer : Carlgo (Carmel Valley, CA)

When it came time for us to get a new charcoal grill I searched every site and checked out dozens of different grills, some costing many hundreds of dollars, all promising some advantage.

Some units were really interesting, and not too expensive, but upon close inspection many of these proved to be tinny and cheaply made. The very expensive systems were very nice, but did not offer rotisseries and other useful accessories and were just too expensive for us anyway.

So, we ended up with another Weber, the Gold Model. In the many years since our last Weber, there have been a lot of improvements that kept it attractive. The ash catcher really does make cleanup much easier and the vent system is more functional. The grill itself has the new flip-up hatches that allow you to add more coals and move them around without having to lift up the grill. I did that all the time with the old grill.

The optional little bent-wire style of charcoal retainers do help to keep the coals out to the side when you want to use a drip pan in the center.

Others have recommended the chimney style charcoal start for ecological reasons. It is also just plain faster to use as well, and it is made of heavy gauge metal that is both attractive and long-lasting.

I love the optional rotisserie (see those reviews) and it comes with an extension ring that is also useful for other cooking options.

We got the green colored kettle and it looks very nice on the patio. The general design and those odd white-wall tires give it a kind of vintage look.

This is a well-made and very functional grill with all sorts of interesting available accessories that really work well. There is a reason for the popularity of the Weber. I looked, I bought. Hard to beat.

Solid Grill With Only One Complaint
Reviewer : Carolyn Vo

We bought this grill as our first grill based on reviews. The Weber grill is a solidly built grill. You don't feel they skimped on materials when they built this. Assembly was only difficult when installing the base ring for the ash catcher but once I got past that, it was easy. The metal grate for the charcoal is smart for allowing air to come up beneath the charcoals, helping keep them hot, which the cooking grate is smartly designed, with two sides able to be flipped up so that you can add more charcoal if you need to. The two handles on the cooking grate make it easy to move the grate. The wheels make it easy to roll the grill around, although I would have preferred rubber wheels as opposed to plastic wheels.

The only complaint I have about this grill is that the handle for the lid can get really hot when it's been sitting on the grill for a while. You can remedy this by wearing a grilling mitt when removing the lid. I'm not sure if a wood handle would make a difference. Just a minor complaint.

The big cooking grate is terrific. I can throw all kinds of stuff on the grill at once and it doesn't matter where it lies, if you spread your coals evenly, everything cooks great whether on the outskirts of the sides of the grate or on the center of the grate. I attribute this to the Weber design and the grill's ability to distribute heat evenly and well.

The ash catcher is one of the nicest features on this grill. If you are trying to decide between the silver and the gold Weber grill, make no mistake that this is the better option hands down. The ash plate on the silver model will most likely get filled up with ash quickly, not to mention it is a possible fire hazard if hot charcoal bits fall off the side of the ash plate. The ash catcher on the gold model is like a pan and can hold a lot of ash and hot charcoal bits with no problem. Spend a little bit more and get the better feature and you won't regret it.

Great grill, hate the clean up
Reviewer : D. Corral "Hollywood" (Chicago, IL)

I was a little unsure if this type of grill would work with charcoal, but it does. The spacing between the grill and the charcoal is a little close for my liking. You have to keep a close eye on the food so that it will not burn. The food taste great because of that charcoal flavor that a propane grill just would not give. Now the problem, it makes a mess. Cleaning the bottom of the grill is a pain. You can not clean it a 100%. It leaves a little bit of the burn charcoal at the bottom. Also, the handles are a little "weak" for the weight of the grill in my opinion. Don't get me wrong I do enjoy the grill, but I wish it didn't have the problems that it has for the price that it cost.

A Great Little Cooker!
Reviewer : Brian Battuello (Ossining, NY, United States)

I've been using a round Weber for years, and it was finally wearing out, so I decided to try this new model. It is excellent, with strong design and construction, easy to use lid and vents, and one of the most effective grill plates I've ever encountered. I've never been a big fan of propane grills or monster-sized charcoal cook-a-ramas. This is just what I need to do perfect steaks and fish for six people.

The only drawback, which doesn't affect the unit itself, is that the Weber stand accessory is not well designed. Just plan to put this on a sturdy table.

Does the job, somewhat
Reviewer : M. Avrutsky (New York)

Light, portable, ergonomic, has some nice features like the wholes on top that can be open or closed, and the bottom tray for easier ash removal. I wish the tray that holds charcoal was deeper - this is practically my only complaint about the grill.

Amazon.com Review

For classic Texas-style barbecue in any backyard, Char-Griller offers their Smokin' Pro Charcoal Grill. Using a traditional barrel design, Char-Griller optimizes heat convection and circulation to cook ribs or burgers evenly and efficiently. The grill offers 580 square inches of cooking space in the main grill, ideal for hosting a family barbecue in the backyard. The charcoal side firebox offers an additional 250 square inches of cooking space, bringing the grill's total space to 830 square inches. Barbecue chefs might employ the side firebox to roast a side dish of corn or vegetable shish kabobs for vegetarians in the family.

The barrel of the grill and side firebox are crafted in heavy-gauge steel with powder-coat finish to endure high heats and long-term use. A double bottom also increases the grill's durability. Nonstick grill grates constructed in cast iron resist warping and embellish the heat and flavor distribution to meats as they cook. Grate height also may be altered for different dishes. Slide-out coal drawers enable cooks to add charcoal while cooking without removing grill grates and dump residual ash easily. A rack below the grill supplies convenient space for seasoning spices, paper plates, hot pads, and barbecue accessories. The airtight-flanged grill hood keeps bugs and debris out while containing flames and heat. The hood also features a heat gauge for temperature monitoring. The grill stands four legs with two sturdy feet and two wheels for transport. Char-Griller has several Smokin' Pro accessories available for separate purchase, including a warming shelf, rotisserie kit, and propane igniter. The grill requires assembly upon delivery and includes thorough direction, as well as several barbecue recipes. This item is covered by a one-year warranty for material or craftsmanship defects. The grill measures 62 by 29 by 50 inches and weighs 146 pounds. --Jessica Reuling

Best Grill I've Ever Had!
Reviewer : Smok'n Dadoo (Chicago, IL)

After months of dropping hints to my wife about the grill I've always wanted, I received my Smokin Pro for Christmas 2008!

I could not have been more happy! Even though it was 17 - 20 degrees in the garage that time of year, I spent the next couple of nights assembling my new grill. I seasoned it the next day, and the meals I have prepared from it were outstanding - in my humble opinion.

Finished my first Smoke of three slabs of ribs and they looked perfect and tasted just as good!

After a hard day's work, I come home and light up the grill and make a quick meal. I've grilled in the middle of Seven degree (yes 7) weather because I love this grill so much.

I've got the optional rotissarie set that goes with it, so I can make juicy birds that taste good and are good for me! Any reason to use my grill...I'll do it. And yes, even vegetables also!

With the side box, refilling fuel for the smoke is easy! And if you don't feel like lighting up the main grill, you can use the side fire box as a mini grill that cleans up easily!

I've owned many different grills, but this one is my favorite! If it ever fails or rusts out, I will be at the store to purchase another.

Can't beat the versatility for the price! Buy one and see!

Oh, and there are plenty of forums with helpful owners of this grill who are more than willing to help you get the best out of this product for many BBQs to come!

The best smoker in my opinion
Reviewer : Richard Dawson "Bama Man" (Anniston AL USA)

This has been one of the best smokers that I have ever had/used. It took a little while to assemble, but it is not that tough to assemble. The only thing I would suggest as a big improvement for this smoker is to have better and larger wheels to move the smoker around. It would not add that much cost to this smoker, but it would be well worth it. I'm going to try and up grade mine to larger wheels on my own.

Rick

This is a Great Grill
Reviewer : D. C. Eaton (Avon, IN United States)

I agree entirely with the two other reviewers. This is a great grill, but I would like to add some additional comments. I have rated this only 4 stars because of some assembly issues (see below) and because it is not quite as good as a dedicated smoker (such as the Brinkmann Vertical Smoker). However, if you want to be able to both smoke and grill, or if you are not sure you want a smoker (like me) then the Char Griller Smokin Pro with Side Fire Box is for you.

Now that I tried Smoking, I am a convert. It does take longer than grilling, but this slow cooking process results in more flavor and more juicy meat. The intensity of the smoke flavor is increased by using more wood and reduced by using more charcoal. For instance, an all-charcoal smoke will result in subtle, but pleasant smoke flavor. I find it very easy to control the temperature of the Smokin Pro grill when smoking - I add more charcoal or adjust the vents only once per hour. Otherwise, it basically runs itself. Cleanup is easy because the firebox has an ash pan. Furthermore, since smoking is done at lower heat, there is no grease spatter in the cooking chamber. I find it helpful to place a pan directly under the meat to catch all the grease.

ASSEMBLY ISSUES: Assuming that you buy both the Smokin Pro grill and the Side Fire Box, do NOT follow the instructions to first assemble the grill, and then add the fire box. The problem is that installation of the fire box requires punching out a knock-out panel on the side of the grill lower half. Unfortunately, the knock-out panel may not be easy to remove, and this step then will require considerable hammering. This step will be very difficult to do if the grill is already assembled!

INSTEAD, as the first step of assembly, take the lower half of the grill firebox and place it on end with the knock-out panel on top, and the other side on hard ground. Firmly wedge a 2x4 piece of wood between the two sides. This will give firm support to the end of the grill with the knock-out panel. It will help to place the support close to the site of the hammering. Now, follow the firebox assembly instructions to punch out the panel with a hammer and a screwdriver. Use of the 2x4 will prevent damage to the side of the grill body due to hammering. After removing the panel, proceed normally with the assembly of the grill, and finally attachment of the fire box as directed in the instructions.

The top of the three-legged Weber line
Reviewer : A photographer (Planet Earth)

After using a 22 1/2 inch Weber for 12-13 years and never paying any attention to taking care of it, I decided to get the new One-Touch with the bucket ash catcher--the "Gold" model. I also went with the blue color for an extra ten bucks.

There is nothing wrong with the Silver model but the addition of the enclosed bucket-type ash catcher is enough of an improvement to make the Gold model the top choice. As much as I loved my old Weber, I always had ashes scattered around on the patio after using it. That open pan-type ash catcher could be mighty messy, especially in the wind. It's not a concern with the One-Touch Gold.

It's easy to love a Weber grill. The design is a classic and it has proven itself for around 50 years. The grill is incredibly versatile. I only rarely use my big smoker since it's pretty simple to slow cook roasts, ribs and briskets on the Weber. And it's ideal for direct grilling of steaks, burgers, sausages and vegetables.

The one accessory you should get is the Weber chimney starter. Take it from me, you won't regret it at all. I've owned three or four other chimney starters and ended up going back to charcoal lighter because none of them ever worked well enough to reliably get a fire going. Well, the Weber works and it saves the expense of the lighter fluid and the time it takes to burn off the odor and taste.

If you're on a budget, the Silver model will work just as well as the Gold. If you're willing to spend extra for more convenience, the Gold One Touch is the way to go. The blue one looks nice too.

Easy to use; well-designed
Reviewer : Mr. Grumpy "Mr. Grumpy" (Newport Beach, CA USA)

Don't know much about grills or grilling, but this seems to be a quality product from a serious company. I appreciated all the recipes and detailed instructions that came along with the barbeque. The grill itself was simple to put together (not too many parts), but is admirably sturdy. The ash-catcher is a useful feature, especially if you keep your grill on a balcony or somewhere possibly windy; I'm glad I paid extra for it.

Weber One-Touch Gold is a Terrific Grill
Reviewer : John Volkman "john98103" (Seattle, WA)

We've been using Weber grills for years and the One-Touch Gold is the best yet. Cooks well, durable and easy to clean with the one touch/ash catcher combo. Cooks better than propane units and as easy, if not easier, to use. Start the charcoal with a chimmey unit (Weber makes a nice one for about $15)- No starter fluid or electric coils --, buy the charcoal (Kingsford) at warehouse clubs & home centers -- 48# for $10, and you're good to go. Weber has terrific customer service too -- phone and web.

Customer Reviews

Seems well-built and functional with very few annoyances.
Reviewer : John H. Henderson (Las Cruces, NM, USA)

I bought myself this grill for Christmas when nobody else got it for me, and now I've had it almost three months and have used it quite a few times. I bought it based on the Amazon recommendations, and the recommendation of FoodTV host Alton Brown in his book, GEAR FOR THE KITCHEN. Also, in perusing the internet, I found the "Blue's BBQ" web site from Australia. One reader asks, "How did the Weber become the icon for the Australian BBQ?" Blue had to disappoint the reader by informing her that the Weber is actually American. But if it has that kind of reputation in Australia, is must be good.

Judging from the reviews here, I'll have to wait 20 years to see how it holds up. It does live on my back porch, but with the Weber cover.

It is fairly easy to assemble, and in my humble engineering opinion, seems well-made and designed with few exceptions. The Silver model has an ash catch-pan hung between the legs. The pan sits on top of spring clips clipped to the leg. After how well everything else went together, this seemed really cheesy to me. If you're a prefectionist, you'll go nuts trying to level the pan.

I guess that the "one touch cleaning" feature is the vanes on the bottom that also act to adjust the temperature in the grill by adjusting the airflow. If you swish them back and forth, opened and closed, it'll push some ash through the vent in the bottom. The problem is that the vanes themselves are wide and flat, and half of the ash just rides back and forth on them. I think Weber overstates this "one touch cleaning" feature.

The vanes closely fit the bottom shape of the grill when assembled, but after a couple of uses, one warped. I don't know if this is from heat, or something I lodged under it. I had to disassemble the vanes, and bend the offending blade a bit, and it's been perfect since.

I am a bit disappointed in some of the accessories, like the tool rack and little side table. They hang on the edge of the grill, and compromise the otherwise pretty good seal between the lid and grill. They also sell a lid rack, but note that the lid does comes with a hook in it so you can hang it on the edge of the grill, although it is certainly not as easy as using the optional rack.

Based on recommendations here, I got the 22" (larger) model. I can't disagree with that. Unless you just don't have the extra 4" of storage space or REALLY need a good grill, but just don't have the money, get the bigger one. It doesn't use that much more charcoal.

The other thing I scratched my head over was whether to get the Silver or Gold model. The differences were not completely clear to me until I actually got the grill. First, the Gold model adds a catch can that fits closely to the bottom of the grill instead of the pan I complained about. That would be nice. Maybe when you're grilling, hot specks of charcoal won't fall out the bottom and burn your legs, and if you grill somewhere where you don't want a lot of ash, this might be worthwhile. But the Gold is almost twice the price of the Silver, and I had a hard time justifying the additional cost.

The other feature added by the Gold is a grate with folding sides to allow you to add more charcoal when doing a long roast. A handy feature for sure, if you're cooking includes that, but I found those replacement Weber grates locally for twelve dollars, so wouldn't pay for the Gold model to get them.

And I guess that's another advantage of the Webers in general: They're so popular, replacement parts are easily found locally.

Sometimes, I long for the built-in side table of the Platinum, but that's a lot of money.

The grill came with a small cookbook that has proved useful. I don't know getting burgers and steaks done right has been such a hit or miss, trial and error, proposition that most people make it out to be. You look up in the little book, "Beef, 1-1/2 in thick, well-done (I know, Alton Brown wouldn't like me), 10 minutes first side, 9 minutes second side" and they come out perfectly.

DEFINITELY pick up a Weber charcoal chimney if you don't have one yet. It's the best way by far to start the grill - no kabooms, no fumes, no smell, no dangerous fluids stored in your house, and a good use for Florida Today newspaper. If you want to try something different, pick up the book AMERICAN PIE by Peter Reinhert and try the grilled pizza.

New plastic handles
Reviewer : Ken Roberts (Waynesboro, Mississippi)

I have used Weber kettle grills for over 10 years with very reliable service. I recently purchased one of the new Silver Series grills. They changed the handles from wood to plastic, and I find the plastic handles to heat up to the point where you cannot use them without a glove or towel. This was not a problem with the wooden handles.

Perfect backyard grill
Reviewer : T. Bux (Barnesville, PA United States)

I love this grill. This is one of my four weber kettle grills I own.

Assembly is a snap. The only tool you'll need is a hammer to tap the wheel lugs on. In 15 minutes you can be lighting your coal.

The beauty of this grill is the kettle design which maximizes heat retention and allows the grill to act like an oven with the top on. I've cooked whole chickens, cabbage, bread, and pizza using this method. The top also has a hook on it so you can hang it from the side of the grill while you add sauce or tend to what you're cooking.

For best results at indirect cooking, use the hinged 22 1/2 inch grate. That way you can add coals throughout the cooking process without the danger of having to totally remove the cooking grate.

Product Description

Forget charcoal lighter fluid. No more electric starters. The Performer charcoal grill uses gas to light coals fast so you get charcoal flavor with the convenience of a gas grill. There's plenty of cook space with a 22-1/2-inch porcelain-enameled bowl and lid. Other features include: a factory-assembled stainless steel One-Touch cleaning system with a removable black aluminum ash catcher; a heavy-duty, plated, hinged cooking grate that makes it easy to add briquets; Charbin storage container that keeps up to 20 pounds of charcoal dry; Touch-N-Go gas ignition system; dual-purpose thermometer built into the lid; Tuck-Away lid holder; and locking casters and crackproof all-weather wheels.

Amazon.com Review

Many outdoor chefs swear by charcoal for the smoky, old-school flavor it lends to meat--but no one likes the mess or the hassle of starting the coals, or the chemical aftertaste that lighter fluid can leave. The Performer’s Touch-n-Go ignition system uses liquid propane to light charcoal briquets with just the touch of a button. Once the coals are white-hot, you’re ready to cook. Even cleaning up afterwards won’t get your hands dirty, thanks to Weber’s patented One-Touch cleaning system--a simple sweep of a lever pushes ashes into a removable catch pan for quick and easy disposal.

The Performer’s exceptionally-durable construction includes a rust-resistant, porcelain-enameled steel bowl and lid. Heavy-duty, hinged grates made from plated steel offer easy access to the classic kettle-shaped bowl when it’s time to add briquets to the fire. A dual-purpose thermometer allows cooks to monitor the temperature inside the grill, then removes to test meat for doneness. A Tuck-Away holder holds the lid conveniently out of the way plus provides a windscreen for lighting. Rugged, weather-resistant wheels are crack-proof in the most extreme temperatures and allow easy transport, while locking casters prevent the grill from rolling while you cook. Rust-free aluminum vents adjust to provide perfect airflow in changing conditions. An integrated storage container keeps up to 20 pounds of charcoal dry and within reach, and the granite-look Thermoset work surface provides a handy place to store marinades and sauces while you cook.

Also included are welded steel charcoal fuel holders that facilitate cooking with direct or indirect heat as well as a five-pound liquid propane tank. The assembled unit measures 40 by 50-1/4 by 28-1/2 inches, with a 22-1/2 inch cooking surface. Bowl, handles, lid, and One-Touch cleaning system are covered by a 10-year warranty; cooking grate and charcoal baskets have a 1-year warranty; and the burner assembly, hose, test valve, and regulator have a 3-year guarantee. Weber grills are made in the USA. --Mary Park

Another Winner From Weber!
Reviewer : John G. Gleeson Sr. (Frederic, Mi USA)

I have used a Weber One Touch Gold for many years, but the truth of the matter is that in Northern Michigan winter, it is frequently more than I care to attempt to try to get the fire going. Nomatter whether I use the chimney or parrafin starters, that cold wind does not get me enthused to charcoal grill in January.

So my sons gave me a Performer as a surprise gift (Bless those lads!!)! And, like most Weber products, it's a winner.

ASSEMBLY: It took less than twenty minutes for my older son and I to assemble it. The directions are crystal clear, the parts are well and carefully packed, and the only item not included is the small propane container, which is readily available at hardware stores. (Our local Home Depot had four packs for just under $10.00.)

QUALITY: This is a solidly built unit. The kettle bolts to the frame with four large bolts, and the adjoining work surface is similarly attached. While some have complained that it is not as good as its predecessor, I can vouch for the overall quality of design and construction.

PERFORMANCE: With the gift came a demand for "RIBS!!" There were enough people here to warrant a comparison test with my old One Touch Gold. The Performer had a fire ready to go about 8 minutes before the One Touch was ready, and the fire was hotter by over 50 degrees as measured on the thermometers in the handles. (I believe that the air vents at the bottom are larger in the Performer, which would account for this.)

The work surface adjacent to the kettle is worth the additional cost of this unit over the One Touch. No longer is there a need to balance a tray of goodies on the rim of the kettle with one hand, while trying to place food items on the grill with the other. The tip out charcoal storeage bin is another neat feature.

CONCLUSION: I am an admitted Weberholic. I don't think that they make a grill that is less than excellent, and I cannot imagine any feature that a charcoal griller would want on a grill that this unit lacks. So, now there are four Weber Grills on the deck, and while I will still use the gas grills a lot, I know that this coming January will see charcoal grilling in Northern Michigan.

Thanks, Weber!!

ADDENDUM: I got some hardwood charcoal (not briquets!) and have done burgers, chops and steaks. The fire is super hot and lasts about 40 minutes, but the flavor of the meat is superb!!

Form vs Function
Reviewer : R. Glazer (Boston, MA)

There has been a lot of talk about the '05 model vs the older model. I just sold my old style model for New Performer and am very happy with it. For all its nice looks, the old Performer has some major design flaws and in some senses is more form than function. For starters, the stainless charcoal bin door lid also serves as the work surface, which is a huge pain when you are adding more coals as you have to move your food or dishes. It's also not that stable due to its dual function. Due to its placement, when taking coals out of the bin, the dust gets all over the stainless surface. Stainless looks pretty, however it's really not the best material for a work surface b/c it stratches and you will be be wiping it down all the time. The Thermoset plastic may feel cheap, but its very easy to clean and easier to maintain. The stainless tool holder attachments are also extremely flimsy in the old version as they clip on during assembly and are often knocked loose. Although I love the grill, these issues always bugged me, particularly the door issue.

Rather than trying to be cheap, I think that Weber has addressed some of the major design flaws with this grill with the '05 model. The charcoal bin can now be accessed from the side and the thermoset work surface is probably more practical when working with a charcoal grill. It also looks is if some solid tool holders have been molded into the frame. Given that the old 5lb gas tank would probably last a few years with regular use, I think Weber saw this as a chance to both save some space and reduce some cost without a great inconvenience. It seems as if you will only need 1-2 disposable cartridges per season. Finally, my guess is that by brining down the pricepoint and splitting the difference with the old one touch platinum, Weber is hoping this version will appeal to a larger crowd. As great as the old Peformer was, there just aren't a lot of people that are going to spend $400 on a charcoal grill, except for the die hards like me.

Money Well Spent! BUY IT!
Reviewer : T. Arseneault "Grilling in NH!" (NH)

When I first was going to buy a charcoal grill I knew it was going to be a Weber, so I ordered the 22 1/2 kettle gold one touch, and every grill accessory to go with it which came out to about $275- then I saw the price on this one and at first a little scared to spend that much on a grill but said what the heck, cancelled the other items and ordered this one and man am I glad I did! This is the mother of all Weber Grills! Gas starting comes with the charcoal baskets,large side table,storage under the grill,Tuck-Away lid holder,tool holder,charcoal bin storage. Starting this thing is SO EASY with the gas ignition I couldn't believe it! I can't say enough to buy this grill! My only problem was which Grill cover to buy because the measurments on the ad says that it's 50inches long which is NOT the case it's really 43 inches long- Weber 9911 Premium Full-Length Heavy-Duty Vinyl Cover is the one you want for this grill also the Dark blue color is really more purple than Dark Blue BUT it might darken over time and use, AND Weber changed the propane tank from the 5lb refillable to the disposeable ones- 16.9oz or the 14.1oz that can be used on the Weber Q grill- I hope I answered any question you might have had with this grill and two words sums up this grill-
BUY IT!
Update!!!!!!! 07/26/2008...............
After 2 years of owning this grill I'm still loving this thing, and it has never darkened over time either, it's still purple, or as some people call it blue, it looks just like the day I bought it too!In fact I'm going to sell my other grill (GAS GRILL) because it never gets any use with this one around!!!!
