This grill is the real deal. From brisket to burgers it gets the job done. I've tried other products, but you can't beat this for your buck. Cooked 11 hamburgers with cheese in about 2 minutes for a large party. You can spend 2 grand, but you don't have to.
Easy to put together, works like a charm fairly easy to control the temperature. I downloaded the app tried a few of the recipes, they came out great, plenty of room for having a few people over. They make it pretty simple. The only thing I would change is I would offer more aftermarket products for the 26 inch kettle such as pizza oven and rotisserie.

Can't beat the size. Perfect for those running out of room on their 22".

Long time user and fan of the Original Kettle 22". Was excited to upgrade to the 26" for large family events and because its big enough to smoke 3 racks of ribs, large pork butts, etc.... The grill is fine for gilling. However, my first time smoking ribs was a big disappointment. I used to smoke on my 22"s and they sealed just fine, but the 26" does not seal and so you cannot control the temperature. It leaked from the lid and from the damper. Smoking meat requires a high degree of temperature control typically between 225 and 250 degrees and I could barely keep it at 300 degrees with the damper fully closed. You can actually see that the damper is not flush with the grill lid and so unable to fully close. This same condition prevents you from being able to extinguish the coals. I grill 3 or 4 times a week, sometimes more, so its important to be to be able to extinguish coals. The original kettle does not specifically call out its ability to be used as a smoker, but again, the 22"s smoke fine so I expected the same quality from the 26". One other thing, not as critical, the nuts and bolts that attach the lid holder from the inside of the grill actually make it more difficult to place the grill grate. You have to navigate around the nuts and bolts to place the grate into position.

Hello, thank you for being a long-time Weber fan and taking the time to submit your feedback. We are sorry to learn about the trouble you are experiencing with smoking on your new grill.

We are always ready to help. Thank you!
If you are debating the 22 or the 26, get the 26. So much room and cooks some of the best food as a grill or even smoker.
The extra room makes a huge difference on big cooks
This is # 5 !! I've had Weber Grills for 40 years, this is just a replacement. My kids bought it for me for Christmas, said my old one was shot. I said it's only well seasoned !
Great quality of the materials, easy to assemble, and love the size of it. With this grill you can easily feed 15 people no problem!

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.
