Know before you buy
This special edition features a unique Hollywood Gray porcelain-enameled finish to celebrate Weber's 70-year history. It maintains all the functional benefits of the standard Master-Touch, including the GBS-compatible grate and One-Touch cleaning system, but with a distinct aesthetic design.
Yes, the included hinged cooking grate is fully compatible with all Weber GBS inserts. This allows you to swap the center section for accessories like a pizza stone, wok, or sear grate.
With 363 square inches of cooking space, this grill can comfortably accommodate up to 13 burger patties at once. It is well-suited for medium-sized family gatherings or hosting a small group of friends.
The Tuck-Away lid holder features a spring-loaded hinge that allows you to slide the lid into a cradle on the side of the bowl. This keeps the lid off the ground and out of your way while you tend to the food, preventing it from getting dirty or taking up extra table space.
Cleanup is straightforward thanks to the One-Touch Cleaning System. By moving the lever back and forth, you sweep the ashes from the bottom of the bowl into the removable, high-capacity ash catcher, which can then be easily detached and emptied.
While not strictly required, the Char-Basket fuel holders are highly recommended for organizing your charcoal. They make it easy to switch between direct heat for searing and indirect heat for roasting or smoking, ensuring more consistent temperature control.
