Key Features

Snap-Jet gas ignition system lights the charcoal with ease
  • Two position charcoal grate can be raised for improved searing or lowered for smoking
  • Air insulated design allows grill to respond to temperature adjustments quickly
  • Stainless steel hinged diffuser plate for indirect low temperature cooking
  • Includes a convenient work table with tool hooks and a charcoal storage bin
Taking the classic design of the Weber kettle grill and making it bigger and bolder in every way, the Weber Grilling Center is designed to make backyard grilling and smoking more easy and convenient. Made of premium-grade U. S. Steel coated with porcelain enamel inside and out, the Summit Charcoal grill features a double walled bowl and lid. Air is trapped between the double walls and acts as an insulator, retaining heat and keeping the temperature consistent for up to 12 hours on a single load of charcoal. In addition, the air insulated design allows the grill to respond to temperature adjustments much faster than grills made from ceramic. The 24-inch stainless steel cooking grate offers 452 square inches of cooking space, so you can cook for the whole family easily. The Summit Charcoal grill also features the Gourmet BBQ System hinged cooking grate with a 12-inch insert that can be replaced with other components (sold separately) such as a wok or pizza stone, allowing you to cook a wider variety of food on the grill. The Snap-Jet gas ignition system runs off a 16 ounce propane cylinder so you can start the fire with a gas flame and be ready to cook in 15 minutes. With the two position charcoal grate, you can set the grate low for smoking or high for high searing heat. For more improved cooking at low temperature, place the stainless steel hinged heat diffuser plate just above the coals. The plate deflects heat away from food, keeping the consistently low. The plate is also hinged so you can add more charcoal or wood if needed. The Summit Charcoal is designed to take the guesswork out of perfecting the airflow during cooking. Three bottom vent positions make it easy to dial in the right amount of air. Use the smoke setting to minimize the airflow, or open up the vent wide for searing with high heat. The RapidFire lid damper features a hinged design, so you can open it up for maximum airflow or adjust it side to side to dial in more precise temperatures. Although the lid is not as heavy as a ceramic kamado, the Summit Charcoal includes a heavy-duty, easy open lid hinge makes opening the lid nearly effortless. The lid also features a braided stainless steel gasket which seals the lid and the bowl, holding heat inside like a vacuum. The One-Touch 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. The Summit Charcoal Grilling Center is equipped with a large, durable stainless steel table which provides ample space for food prep and serving. It also includes a removable Char-Bin storage container that holds up to 22 pounds of charcoal with a tight closing lid to keep moisture out. The heavy-duty steel cart features a bottom wire rack for extra storage space for grilling tools and accessories.

Does it all grill

I got the Summit Charcoal as an early Father's Day present from my wife. I've cooked anything from low and slow pulled pork to beautifully seared ribeyes. This grill can go it all. I can't wait to grill more food!

Best Grill Ever

I bought this grill because all the reviews I had read BY current owners we so positive. I couldn't find a single negative review. When ALL the owner are raving about it I needed to look. I was looking at buying a Kamado until I started reading about the Charcoal Summit. I have had it now for nearly a month and couldn't be happier. It is a great grill, a great low-n-slow and a GREAT Kamado! It is amazing!! I have cooked steaks, burgers, a brisket, pork butts and last night a smoked meatloaf. Every one came out perfect. Truly the "BEST GRILL EVER!!"

Holding Temperature

I've been purchasing Weber products for 25-years. Amazing products and service. In particular I recently purchased the charcoal Summit. The amazing part is that it holds temperature as if it was controlled by a thermostat. Once you adjust the vents you can relax. It makes the difficult task of smoking your favorite meat easy and more enjoyable.

A little more work ... a LOT more flavor and fun

I've had a Weber gas grill for what seems like forever and always loved it. But it felt like a good time to elevate my game and try some new things like low and slow smoking. After researching options, the Summit had everything I wanted: nice big cooking service, the ability to light the charcoal quickly with the ignition system, quick cleaning, and - of course- the way it holds heat. Yah, it takes a few more minutes to load up the charcoal and get things good and hot but it's so worth it. Everything I've cooked on it tastes amazing. Took a try or two to get the slow cooking down pat, but once I did it's now a breeze. All in all, couldn't be happier with the choice. Lives up to Weber standards!

I'm very happy with my Summit Charcoal

It holds heat very well and has all the features of my former Weber Grill. PLEASE offer a grilling surface with no breaks. The circular break in the middle makes it tough to grill a large number of salmon filets. Also, the charcoal holder is a waste. Other than that, it's a wonderful grill.

Love the build quality and performance

I love the versatility of this grill at being able to do both grilling and slow cooks. It has been terrific at grilling so far, and I am looking forward to my first brisket cook on it.

Great Smoker and indirect cooking.

Have done ribs several times and pork shoulders a couple of time great for smoking. Have also cooked some indirect and came out well...Holds temp real good except if in a strong wind then it tends to rise, I need to locate out of the wind in the future.

The best charcoal grill you can buy!

I've had this for about 3 months now. It's so easy to grill and smoke. It's much nicer than the Big Green Egg or Kamado Joe. The temperature s are a breeze to control. I have hold a smoking temperature without adjusting the vets too much and if I overshoot, I can bring it back down with very little effort.

leaks

Overall, I really like this grill. Two complaints: I get leaks on the gasket and out of the thermometer and the grates that come with the grill are flimsy.

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.
