    Does this have the hook on the inside of the lid to hang off the side? Last time I was looking at my mates new weber it didn't have one.

      https://www.weber.com/AU/en/barbecues/charcoal-range/weber-k… is the manufacturers page for this one. It shows angled lid hook inside lid in the specifications. I am pretty sure all their models have this now. You can always go to a weber store and have a look at everything and then shop around. Pricing doesn't tend to vary too much though.

          Sorry mate! Blame Glady's not me! Also I forgot Costco does delivery now so just assumed you would have to go out to get one anyway.

      This Kogan kettle is 47cm. Slightly different.

      I've just inherited my weber from my parents that purchased it in 1986. You'd be lucky to get 2 years out of a jumbuck. You may as well just save time and throw it on the nature strip straight away.

      • kongkee on 24/08/2021 - 11:18

        Exactly.

      You got negged by fanboys. End of the day, it is just a tin can to put charcoal for cooking.

      They probably will have the same result on your food. But Weber's quality is what sets it apart from the Bunnings model. Especially the coating on them, so easy to clean and will not let you down for years. Just a little bit of wipe and it looks brand new again. My dad likes to cheap out on bbq grills, buying every now and then on Aldi/Bunnings when they are on sale. After a year or two had to dump them because they are rusting and just looks bad or broken down. Meanwhile when I bought a Weber when I first moved out 7 years ago, it's still looks good and coating is still the same as the first day I bought it. Meanwhile, I don't even see dad's cheapo bbq grills anymore. Cheap is expensive. Buy a good quality and will last you years and reduce your landfill contribution.

    • beefsandwich on 24/08/2021 - 11:27

      They both cook food. But the Jumbuck will be rusting and falling apart in a couple of years, while the weber will last decades, even left out in the weather.

      If you're unsure about whether you'll get much use out of it, i'd recommend a second hand weber over the jumbuck. You could use it a couple of times and sell it after 12 months and get what you paid for it.

      My Jumbuck started rusting almost as soon as I got it and after 3 years I put it out for kerbside collection. Have had no such issues with my Weber Kettle. I also have a Weber Genesis Silver gas BBQ bought in 2004 and still working just as well as the day I bought it. I am happy to pay double the price for something that will last many decades.

    I've had my US-made Weber kettle for about 20 years. I wouldn't touch one now as they are made in China

    Time for the China Fanboi squad to start their negging!

    • sfac on 24/08/2021 - 13:21

      You might wanna check where your 3XL was made?

      • R4 on 24/08/2021 - 14:53

        Bought way before my non-China buying policy started.

        I try to buy non-CCP products - whatever the cost, but unfortunately there's sometimes no other choice.

    I have a Weber that is nearly 30 years old now and still going strong.

    My only complaint with the model shown here is the ash catcher is completely useless as even a light breeze will mean ash spread all over your back yard. You can buy the removable cup style ash catcher from Weber directly and it is probably one of the best upgrades you can do (second only to the in-lid thermometer).

    • retainer on 24/08/2021 - 19:20

      Where do you purchase the high capacity ash catcher for the 57mm weber kettle? Can only find hits in the USA on google, nothing local ?

        I bought mine from Amazon US a long time ago, but Weber AU can supply them upon request.

    I'd rather pick up better old weber from marketplace or gumtree

  • mshanann on 24/08/2021 - 16:36

    I've got the same size Weber - albeit an old one with the wooden handle. It's fine for cooking some steaks (tomahawk), or a small roast. But anything bigger that takes longer to cook and I find the issue becomes the limited amount of charcoal briquettes that you can realistically retain (in baskets or otherwise).

    If you have to re-fuel mid-cooking and you DON'T have a charcoal starter (which enables you to prelight the charcoal), then you are left with the choice of either taking your food out, or having your food covered in the first smoke of the replacement charcoal which is generally horrible stuff.

    As the Weber being sold here has the hinged cooking grill, then re-stocking the charcoal is at least possible - so definitely invest in the separate charcoal starter.

    My only other gripe with the Weber is the cleanup. These don't have a proper ash catcher, and some small percentage of the ash inevitably seems to get fats/oils mixed with it forming a glue paste like substance in parts. I try to vacuum most of the non-contaminated ash up using one of those cheap ozito bag-style web and dry vacuums. You are still often left though with some fat/oily ash mix that you either put up with and leave be, or try to clean out using hose/soap-water etc. I fall in the latter category, and this adds another block of time to the cleanup routine. In hindsight, I wish I had purchased the full-size kettle.

      I have the smaller, portable Weber kettle that I bought more than a decade ago (still going strong after all this time). I've been using it so often recently that I decided to line it with aluminium foil (bottom half and drip tray) to save a bunch of time and effort with cleaning. Works a treat and leaves very little mess!

      Was led to believe that the foil would catch fire or that the aluminium would leech into the food, according to an internet search.. perhaps I would be better off making a hat out of it if I were to believe any of it.

      I didn't line the lid as it didn't seem to stay in place too well but that doesn't get too greasy anyway and along with the grill, letting it burn off after the cooking is done is an easy and simple way to clean up. A quick scrub with the grill brush, wrapping up the foil, a wipe down and a brisk vacuum for the cooled ash is a no-brainer in comparison to what I had to do previously.
