Was on the hunt for a quality charcoal grill and stumbled upon the Weber Kettle Premium 57cm at Bunnings. It's not on sale/clearance, but the price is very low compared to other retailers and Weber's website. Plenty of stock available for pick up and instore buy at the time of posting.

It might be a grey import though, but at such a great price for a BBQ grill, would you even care?

One thing to note: This model doesn't have the black bottom ash tray, so it could be an older version. Also, I'm not sure about a built-in temperature gauge, but most of us would use a thermometer probe anyways.

Order went through smoothly, so no price errors here.

Some info from the website:

          A couple of reviews on weber.com talk about the vents being hard to open when hot. Any truth to it?

            +2

            @soan papdi: Yes as the vent cover gets hot you will need gloves to pull it upwards with your hand to open it. It's stiff in the first place, and it gets stiffer due to the differing rates of metal expansion for the different parts.

            It's no big deal in my opinion:
            If the lid is open, i don't think the vent makes a difference.
            If the lid is on, hold the lid down and tap the vent flap up with the back of your tongs/whatever, or keep the vents open and just tap down on it to close it

            +1

            @soan papdi: The vents do get hot and become harder to open due to expansion of metal. But is not a deal breaker and i usually use the tongs to knock it up or down to move it to my requirement.

      I've not used a new one but common opinion among the weber community is that quality has gone downhill since production was moved to China. Buying second hand you're probably getting better quality, you'll skip the 'cant put a scratch in it' phase, and you'll have more money for accessories (the rotisserie kit is great)

      I have the $69 jumbuck, the price might be tempting but I wish I get the Weber one, despite the huge price differences. My friend has a Weber one and it's miles better than the jump buck. It does the job but with frustration. I love charcoal BBQ but the jumbuck makes me hate it now.

      the go anywhere looks kinda cute but maybe too small? like maybe a habachi grill is more your speed?

      • soan papdi on 05/12/2023 - 13:02

        I get what you're saying and you're right, it is a bit small. My usage won't be heavy. Just two young kids, so a few sausages, chicken drumsticks or steak. No plans to cook an entire chicken or pork shoulders etc, we're not much into meat but want to add it to our diet maybe 1-2 times a week at most.

        • Jimothy Wongingtons on 05/12/2023 - 13:04

          Put it this way

          I have a nice outdoor dining area, and a Weber bbq (gas) and I still rather just cook up sausages steaks etc on electric cook top instead lol too much effort to clean up

          It does taste better bbq though

          • soan papdi on 05/12/2023 - 13:07

            @Jimothy Wongingtons: That's a valid point, however my wife's a vegetarian and I'm trying to keep meat away from our kitchen and do any cooking outdoors. Speaking of which, might need to get a bar fridge too, for drinks and meat storage.

            • Jimothy Wongingtons on 05/12/2023 - 13:11

              @soan papdi: Ok I can appreciate that.

              I would still suggest a gas Weber.

              While I love coal char grilled taste it’s so much effort to get it going and consistent. Gas, you’re pretty much ready to go once it hits the right temp and can regulate as needed.

          • Irishness on 05/12/2023 - 13:14

            @Jimothy Wongingtons: I have a weber Q & i prefer to cook on that as there's little to no clean up, leave it running on high heat after cooking & the grill grates will burn off almost everything then just lightly brush with a wire bbq brush or wet cloth when cool

      Definitely go the Weber for what you're after. Light 9 briquettes and bank them against the side and it'll run at about 120c for an hour, which is enough to cook your snags or reverse sear a steak. A bag of charcoal will last you for ages. The jumbuck will be really inefficient.

    • Ulysses31 on 05/12/2023 - 16:46

      +1

      Don't have the jumbuck but the WGA is fantastic and can cook for a small family very efficiently. The concept of it is that you actually cook with the lid on, so once the coals are really going, it's much quicker than you might think. Plus, extra smokiness to your food.

  • cobknob on 05/12/2023 - 12:22

    A tip for anyone not use to this style of BBQ - with coals it is a convection style heating system which can easily exceed 260°C, and quite often I recall the temperature maxing out on the steel probe. Great for roasting, partial grilling/smoking. This weber is unlike conventional BBQs which have heat directly underneath the plate/grill.

    • Ricktheroller on 05/12/2023 - 13:48

      It uses charcoal/coal briquettes like all charcoal/coal briquette style BBQs. The heat comes from where you put the fuel, if you want the heat from directly beneath the grill you put it directly beneath the grill, if you don't want it from directly beneath the grill you don't put it directly beneath the grill. If you want more heat you put in more fuel, if you want less heat you put in less fuel… it's good for anything, just takes longer to start than gas.

      • cobknob on 05/12/2023 - 14:43

        Owned a gold plus weber while back and putting coals (in basket or out of) directly beneath the grill was not the recommendation by weber and their BBQ grill book. Whilst I did not follow this recommendation, it literally does burn your food cause the heat is to close to the grill. Sausages/steaks (not adding the smoke wood chips) taste better on gas BBQ but the weber aces roasts of any kind. I've also seen professionals in the city cook with webers during market time and the meat is as tough as fuk - some people got no idea how to use em. The kettle BBQ cooking isn't like flattop BBQs which are just switch them on, slap your food on the plate/grill and cook.

        • Cheaplikethebird on 05/12/2023 - 14:55
          +3

          You can grill directly on a weber you just use less coals. Not rocket science.

            @Cheaplikethebird: My Weber cookbook has a plethora of both 'direct' and 'indirect' recipes. Only use the kettle a couple of times a year these days, invariably for indirect roasting. Fabulous smoky flavours and retains meat juices.

            Kettle cooking is all about experimentation with the fuel. Like cobnob (I suspect) my first direct cook resulted in somewhat burnt offerings.

          +2

          If sausages or steak taste better on a gas bbq you're doing something very very wrong. To start with, fill up a coal basket and put it on one side of the bbq, use the hot area directly above to sear the steak for a short time then place the steak on the other side of the bbq with the lid on and a thermometer. It takes time to get the right skills built up but it's like that with cooking anything, it doesn't have to be perfect the first time.

    This is the original series, without the ash pan , then came the premium with the ash pan, then came the ultra with the ash pan and markings on the air flow controller at the bottom then came a number of "special" editions as they got popular with specials colours .. premium is the best bet .. the VB deal recently had a premium in VB colours and that keeps coming up.. a charcoal BBQ without an ash basket is not much fun …specially with Kettle style ones since they encourage briqquettes which produce way more ash than lump charcoal
