Weber Original Charcoal Grill, 22 Inch Kettle Charcoal Grill, Black

This was my first use of my new Weber for July 4th. I was excited to BBQ for my youngest daughter return from her vacation. I cooked wings, ribs, hot links and thighs and the grill handled each protein extremely well. For dessert we grilled fresh peaches and they were delicious.

Decided to buy an original Weber kettle to take on a vacation. The price was right and the Weber name is great. The instructions for assembly were good and it was easy to assemble. I was blown away to find out how many accessories are available for these. My only complaint about the original kettle is it doesn't even come with a thermometer in the lid so I bought one and added it.

I have spent a lot money on gas grills from the big-box stores and they didn't last in the Florida coastal climate. With every purchase, I eyed the simple Weber Kettle as a much cheaper alternative. I finally bought one and, with a small learning curve, am enjoying true grilling!

Primarily got the Weber for an easy smoker. I don't have all the attachments or a temp probe…but a bit of patience and some know how, this grill smokes chicken, fish, ribs, pork butt , etc. I'm gearing up for a brisket…I'll let ya know how it goes. No complaints. Great grill/ smoker for the money.. probably am gonna upgrade my grill to the sides that open, so I can feed it charcoal and wood on long smokes.

Classic for a reason. It does not have bells and whistles because you don't need them.

Exactly what you'd expect when getting a Weber. This is my second kettle so I can cook more stuff at the same time. Thinking about a third kettle and if I do, it's guaranteed to be a Weber!

A classic is a classic for a reason. This Weber Grill is that, it's a classic because it is well made and functions like a perfect traditional grill. I know that this grill will last and never disappoint me. I'm very happy with my purchase.

I purchased this to use becuase our natural gas grill was diconnected after 30+ years and I did not want to risk the old line leaking, I had it removed. I wanted to go back to charcoal and this grill worked good, it would be better with an adjustable rack, but it worked fine.

I had one of these 22" Webers for 20 plus years. I also have a Weber gas grill 26 years old. It still working great but I mostly use the 22". Nothing better than charcoal or wood cooking/smoking. The only reason I bought the new 22" is the old one had a broken cleaning apparatus on the bottom. The new grill cooking grate came with a dent in it. So, I used my 20 year old seasoned one. Flavah! < Boston accent I have some after market items in going to add (hinged top %26 thermometer) , but it will void the warranty. So, don't do it unless you are a long time Weber user and know the grill will still last. Smoking meat requires temp control and I use the old school analog method. Enjoy your cookout!

Due to the shortness of the grill, constant use of it while keep bending /crunching over is going to give you lower back pain. Thats the downfall for me. Its still brand new never used and I've bought it over 2 months ago. For this reason its been sitting there.
