Experience the charcoal revolution that started it all with a Weber kettle-style BBQ grill! Weber combines traditional, iconic design with innovation in production in this grill that is large enough to feed the neighborhood! Made of premium-grade U. S. Steel coated with porcelain enamel inside and out, the bowl and lid of the Weber Original Premium charcoal grill are precisely formed to allow heat to circulate evenly inside the grill and across the vast 508 square inches of cooking area. The black porcelain-enamel coating is baked on, fusing the finish to the steel to prevent rusting and peeling through years of use. The aluminized steel Original cleaning system makes clean-up hassle free. As you rotate the handle, three blades in the bowl move ash through the vents and down into the removable, high-capacity aluminum ash catcher below, which is enclosed to prevent ashes from blowing away and creating a mess. Only the unburned coals remain in the bowl and can be re-lit for your next barbecue, which helps you save money on fuel. With this versatile Weber Original Kettle Premium grill, you have the option of direct or indirect cooking by using the two included Char-Basket charcoal fuel holders in various positions. The adjustable, no-rust aluminum top vent provides the proper airflow needed for perfect grilling and, along with the built-in thermometer, helps you to control the temperature inside the grill. This Weber Original Premium grill also features a hinged stainless steel cooking grate, for easily adding more charcoal, two glass-reinforced nylon handles that will withstand the elements for the life of the grill, one of which has built-in tool hooks, and a Tuck-Away lid holder that conveniently allows you to store the lid while you grill. Aluminum legs elevate the grill to an ideal height for grilling and two durable all-weather wheels, that are virtually indestructible, make moving the grill easy. A classic, dependable design, the Weber Original Premium Kettle charcoal grill is engineered with the backyard griller in mind!

A k R SoCal ![]() | ★★★★★ ★★★★★ Original Kettle Premium Charcoal Grill 26" Review I cannot say enough about how much I LOVE this grill. The only downside I could say is there is not any or enough accessories like what is available for the 22" like the removable cast iron sear grate etc. wish that there were replacement parts avail (I do not need them it's more of a "just in case") too. | Was This Helpful? |
Patrick T San Diego ![]() | ★★★★★ ★★★★★ 26" Weber Kettle checks all boxes Everything I expected. Finally have enough space to cook meat and veggies at same time using indirect cooking. Can use cast iron pan for searing with plenty space left for indirect cooking. Included charcoal boxes are helpful and extend charcoal cook. The charcoal rack is closer to grill grates than the 21" which is welcome for searing on grates. | Was This Helpful? |

James Hartley Undisclosed ![]() | ★★★★★ ★★★★★ Weber 26 us Awsome! I have truly enjoyed cooking on my new 26 I have had a 22 for years and now the two of them side-by-side are helping me do all kinds of things that I have not tried before on my Weber. The 26 gives me plenty of room to get into smoking Meats like turkey and hams and briskets. Using the indirect method I have totally revolutionized my entire kitchen and storage systems to accommodate my passion for Weber cooking. | Was This Helpful? |
