Customer Reviews
I've owned this grill before and just bought a new one, because it's the best for grilling with wood chunks. Great smoked flavor and char!
This unit perfects any complaint I ever had about my base model 22" kettle I ran for over a decade. The propane assist to light the charcoal is worth every penny. It makes lighting leftover charcoal from a previous cook a breeze. Or if you run a vortex for all kinds of chicken cooks (and you really should) it's in the perfect spot to light that up every time. I have it hooked up to a 20lb tank. The heavy duty stainless grate is excellent! The lid holder rocks! The side table is useful. The charcoal hopper is great to store a bag at all times. No more running to the garage to grab charcoal every time. Love the copper color! I'm hoping this is the last grill I ever own…..unless Weber comes out with a 26" performer! If they do……take my money! Like the title says…this is the best backyard grill ever made that anyone could reasonably afford.
I have used both charcoal and gas weber grills for over 50 years. This unit is the best one yet. The propane lighter is a great addition. However, according to the assembly instructions, the match stick holder should be located behind the "WEBER' logo on the grill. It was not. It is actually located behind the gas control panel / behind the timer panel. Not at all useable.
Good grill a lot of space the best things I like is the spacious table and the gal light for getting the charcoal lit
I love cooking on my new kettle grill just wish it had a meat thermometer on it as well
This is our third performer over the past 25 years. We recently moved and left our old one for the new owners, a young couple. I hope they love it as much as we did. Now we have this new copper beauty. The scent of charcoal wafting through a neighborhood is so nostalgic.

Came with damaged parts which made assembly impossible. Also did not come with any assembly instructions either.

Thank you for your feedback. We are so sorry to hear about your experience with the broken leg frame bracket and missing instructions. We are here to help. We see that one of our reps has already shipped the part out. Our Care team will be reaching out to follow up. Please look for our outreach soon. Thank you!
I decided to return from gas to charcoal. This was a great choice, and enjoy using it.
I've had the weber performer deluxe about 2 months now. I like features on the charcoal grill: Easy charcoal lighting with the propane starter, grill baskets for direct or in-direct grilling, grates with removable center, storage for charcoal. I bought a cast iron searing grate for it and it does a wonderful job at searing and cooking steaks. I've cooked chicken wings, chicken and pork on it so far. Plan on cooking pizza this summer as well as beer can chicken. Weber makes great products!!

When will my item arrive?
Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.
- Most freight products ship on a pallet
- Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
- We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.
For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:
Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.
For carriers that deliver without an appointment:
Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
