It all started in 1952 when George Stephen revolutionized outdoor grilling with the invention of the Weber kettle grill. Now a relic of 1950s American pop culture, its signature saucer shape would mark the beginning of Weber’s status as a leader in the grilling industry. Even today, after 70 years, Weber continues to be a tour de force with a strong lineup of grills. Explore gas and liquid propane models for new-school grill masters, charcoal and pellet fuel grills for traditionalists and the next generation of grillers, plus electric grills for smaller outdoor areas.
Whether it’s Wi-Fi compatibility or Flavorizer Bars that reduce flare-ups while imparting iconic grilled taste, Weber also delivers exciting features that inspire outdoor cooks to get grilling. Let’s take a closer look at the brand that started it all as we explain why Weber grills are so good, which Weber gas grills we recommend buying, and the differences between each series of Weber gas grill.

Weber Grills of Today
Intelligent design is being able to turn any Weber grill into a smart Weber grill with the Weber Connect Smart Grilling Hub.
So, how does the Weber Connect Smart Grilling Hub work? It’s easy:
➕ Convenient setup: A rechargeable battery-powered hub attaches to the grill using a magnet.
➕ Twice the control: Two stainless-steel probes (sold separately) monitor temperatures from two different zones — a probe for food cooking inside and another to track the temperatures outside the grill. Connect up to four probes to handle multiple grilled foods at a time.
➕ Endless possibilities: Once set up, the hub connects to your home’s Wi-Fi network, giving you the power to check in-time food progress, access and store recipes, receive “flip” and “serve” notifications, and even gauge how much fuel your grill has.
For many grillers, Weber’s Connect Smart Grilling Hub is an affordable alternative to purchasing an individual smart grill, and one more way the brand continues to change how grilling is done.
