In 1952, George Stephen Snr. worked at Weber Brothers Metal works, helping in the production of marine buoys - a light bulb moment occurred and George cut a marine buoy in half, added air vents and legs - The Weber Original Kettle Barbecue was born.
This is a one of a kind opportunity to get your hands on a Limited Edition Weber Charcoal Grill, celebrating 70 years of Weber BBQs.
Weber says, "ignite the coals and barbecue for the entire family - plenty of space for barbecuing up a bunch of steaks or a burger for anyone who stops by" on this 70th Anniversary Edition Kettle. This grill oozes style, with a nostalgic looking metallic grey porcelain enamel lid and bowl. The triple plated Gourmet Barbecue System grates allows you to do a lot more with your grill - with the addition of a GBS accessory you can now cook authentic Italian style pizzas, a whole chicken, steaks with restaurant quality char lines, a full English breakfast and many more dishes besides. This grate is also hinged so you can easily add more fuel during those long cooks or wood chunks for extra smoke - no need to lift out the grates.
This Weber BBQ is ideal for both direct and indirect style cooking (read more about grilling techniques). Either load it up with burgers and hot dogs and grill directly above the heat or set up your BBQ for Indirect roasting and cook a larger cut of meat such as a leg of lamb or whole chicken.
All Weber Charcoal BBQs have a porcelain enameled lid and bowl which is weather proof and backed up by Weber's 10 year guarantee, truly built to last.
The lid on this Weber 70th Anniversary Edition Kettle has a faux wooden handle and a rust proof air vent with a faux wooden touch handle will allow you to easily control the air flow inside the BBQ. You will also find a lid thermometer which allows you to accurately gauge how hot your grill is and adjust accordingly.
The legs on this model are taller than some others and has been designed for the perfect working height. On the enameled bowl you will find a wooden like bowl handle which has integrated hooks to hang your tools. A vintage looking solid bottom tray is a handy place to stow away GBS accessories and tools with rubberised all weather retro fitted wheels.
Weber's one touch cleaning system allows for safe and easy ash disposal, with a simply push of a handle the ash is swept into an enclosed bowl which can be easily removed when you are ready.
A great barbecue suitable for grillers of all levels; novice, experienced and veteran professional grillers. A stylish and robust addition to your garden or patio.
