Weber is the standard and the most recognized name in a charcoal grill, period.
Their grills are built like brick chicken houses, and since the get go, (that means a long time ago) have offered superior grilling and barbecuing ability even for the beginner.
Walk around your neighborhood and you will almost always spot a Weber grill, especially the "kettles". Of course, there is the name, but they have always kept their prices to the point that almost anyone, even someone on a strict budget could afford.
I like to use this analogy. I live right next to the Willamette River in Oregon. During salmon season you will see hundreds of boats out on the river fishing for Chinook salmon all at once.
There are the folks that think they have to have the $35,000 boat to catch fish. Then there is the guy who has the hundred dollar boat that he rows with the old oars.
Hey, the fish don't care if you paid $35,000 for you boat, or a hundred bucks. The guy that has the $100 boats (the guy with the oars) will catch as many fish, if not more than the guy with the fancy $35,000 boat.
The basic $100 boat, with oars in the BBQ world is the Weber Silver Kettle Charcoal Grill. Although, the price is under a hundred bucks.There are lot's of imitators, but there is nothing at that price that is superior, or comes close to the quality. And, if taste is the final denominator, the $5K grill won't taste any better. In fact, it may not taste as good!
The "Silver" can grill and/or barbecue most anything the folks that have the $5000.00 grill can. They just may not have all the conveniences, the guy on the $5K grill has.
But, and if you must, and if you are into conveniences you can move up to a couple of different models, namely the Weber Gold Charcoal Grill and the Weber Performer Charcoal Grill.
What do they have over the basic Silver model? Basically, they both have removable ash catchers and hinged cooking grates for easy re-fueling. You don't have to get your hands dirty at all cleaning ash from the unit. And, you can deal with the lid a lot easier.
In the case of the Weber Performer it has a bin for storing fuel and a propane ignition system and a cool work table.
All can easily accommodate six large succulent (big word) steaks, or twelve juicy mouth-watering hamburgers, or a dozen shish kebabs.
Maybe this isn't quite as much food as the guy with the $5K grill can accommodate, but it tastes just as good..... most likely better, for a lot less bucks.
If you are in the market for a charcoal grill, none comes better than the Weber brand. I would take the Weber Charcoal Grill in a heartbeat over any gas grill that's in the same price range. Hey, maybe even some of those gas grills that are in the $5000 price range.

With barbecue season right on top of us (It's always on top of us), it's time to talk once again about the Weber Performer Charcoal Grill. (Well, just kinda of an earlier post thingy, too)
First the Weber Performer is not some type of an El Cheapo charcoal grill. This is not a ten dollar grill designed to destruct after one BBQ season. It is a grill designed to last and last.
As of the date of this post, there are 173 positive ratings of this product. There are a few minor gripes (A rednecky thing: "I so busy fightin' off the flies, I done forgot to light the charcoal and dat your fault. (And An And/Or thing): I done left the charcoal out in the rain all year to dry out and I won't light."
But, in short, most folks just love their Weber Performer to pieces! It's goin' light your fire, dude!
The BBQin' results you're goin' get are goin' be phenomenal! It's going to impress your family! It's goin' impress your friends, providing you didn't leave all that charcoal out in the rain all year!
All Things Equal: The Performer makes it easy to light charcoal and takes the pain out of having to use foul repulsive smelly, not so good for the environment, dude, charcoal lighter fluid, or a chimney starter to get things going.
They have an auto-ignition feature�a button that you push that gets the charcoal going. How hard can this be? Rally your brain...get with the button!
Technical Time: Basically, what it consists of is a propane welder's torch built into the base of the kettle that ignites the charcoal. This definitely solves the lighting problem�.especially on cold windy days. In essence, this combines a convenient feature of gas grills with charcoal grills.
There are some additional cool features like a dual-purpose thermometer that monitors the temperature inside the grill while you are cooking and then you can removes it to test whatever you are barbecuing for doneness.
You don't have to take the lid off to add charcoal. They have what they call a Tuck-Away holder that holds the lid up and out of the way while you add charcoal, or check internal temperatures of the meat that you are barbecuing.
There are aluminum vents that you can adjust to provide perfect airflow so that the Performer can meet any cooking condition. Hey, there is even a storage container that keeps up to 20 pounds of charcoal nice and dry.
There is also a rack to hold all your BBQ tools and a great set of wheels makes your Weber extremely easy to move around.
Make sure you get a cover�.they are thirty some bucks, but worth every penny. You grill will last much longer if you cover it when not in use.
Is this a recommendation for the Weber Performer Charcoal Grill? Yes! And, I think you will find the price is right�.and, there are 173 folks that have given a super positive review on Amazon.

If you are looking for the best price for Weber Grills this is it, but you also should be looking for quality and the best customer service along with the best price.
For Those Who Are In The Really Fast Lane & Can't Wait To Start Barbecuing...Here It Is:
Up to 20% Off on Weber Grills! Free Same Day Shipping on Select Grills at ShoppersChoice!
But, For The Rest Of The Really Cool Folks Who Can't Wait To Start Barbecuing:
Back in the Sixties my very first barbecue was a Weber Kettle Grill. I let it sit out in the weather uncovered (I live in Oregon) and it lasted probably ten times longer than any other comparable grill would have under those conditions.
Now, if I had taken the time to cover it, or store it out of the weather I would still have it 50 years later. Meaning: Most Weber Barbecues are built like "Brick Chicken Houses"! Well, that expression kind of goes back to the 50's and I won't get into all the guy things about that expression!
Ok, ok! Concerns about quality of some of the Weber Gas Grills are the ones that you find in the Big Box Stores. I recommend you invest only in Genesis Gas Grills and above. There is one exception and that is the Weber Baby Q. Neat grill for the money.
If budget restraints are a concern, buy a Weber Charcoal Grill instead of a low-end gas grill, even over the Q. You will get a lot of grill for the same money that will last you for years.
Especially, look at the Weber Performer Series�.they light easy, get up to speed easy and you be turning out chow like the pros, and I dig the cool utility table that it comes with!
The Finale: "Busy Fingers Are Happy Fingers, Dude", so get off your duff and look at the Weber Grill choices on ShoppersChoice! Go back to beginning and use your fingers on this really cool link!
