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.

Awesome Product

Awesome grill, going on two years. I've grilled, smoked, baked, etc on this and it's been a very good cooker. Lots of versatility with how to arrange the fire/food and much easier to use overall than its ceramic counterparts. (Yes I have one of those too)

Igniter problems

We bought this for the gas igniter, and it keeps failing. We've had someone out to try to fix it at least twice, and it always goes out again. Pipe cleaners, etc. have not worked. We would never have paid this much for a grill had we known that the igniter fails.

Weber Summit Charcoal Grilling Center Review

My Weber Summit Charcoal Grill is, hands down, the best grill/smoker I have ever owned. Over the years (40 years) I have owned a ceramic egg, pellet, gas and stick smokers/grills. The temperatures from low and slow smoking to searing steaks are well maintained throughout the cook. Anyone thinking about buying this grill will have no regrets!!

As good as it gets

Weber really hit a home run with the Summit Charcoal Grill Center. Like the first Performers, this has a beautiful and very functional stainless steel table. And along side the table is a double steel walled 24" kamado style kettle. In fact, it works better than the Smokey Mountain because of it's double wall build. Fantastic heat retention and charcoal economy, super easy to maintain smoking temps for those long smoking sessions. When grilling, it's just as easy to get higher temps for searing. And these are not out of control temps, I have complete control of how hot a temp I want. All the Gourmet Inserts I use on the 22" Gourmet grate fit perfectly of this new 24" Gourmet grate. I've owned a lot of Weber grills and smokers over the years, the Summit is by far the best grill/smoker I've ever cooked on.

Best Grill I've Ever Owned

If you want a charcoal grill, this is the one. From grilling to smoking, this is a tremendous grill. I've owned one for 4 yrs and 1 yr ago I gave my expensive gas infra red grill away because I wasn't using it. It grills hotter when you want it to, roasts with indirect heat, or smokes. I use real charcoal --not briquettes. They burn hotter and have no additives. Its also easy to add wood chips for flavor to whatever you're cooking. The design is very practical and I can store everything I need in the grill stand. With the gas charcoal lighter, heat up time is nearly the same as a gas grill. Since 1972, I've owned various grills--charcoal and gas infra red. This is the best grill I've ever owned.

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.

This item leaves our warehouse within 10-14 Business Days
