The ash catcher alone is worth the $50 upgrade... you can bbq three or four times before dumping out the bin... vs everytime on the original model and not make a huge mess on the ground. Thermometer on lid is a very nice bonus.
Yeah man I had the premium one and sold it for like 40 bucks cuz I wasn't using it anymore then now I got the urge to bbq had to buy the original 😩 with out some of the perks I wish I had now
@@JosePerez-ok8ez Ouch! Sorry to hear that man. If you got free time, you might want to check out Craigslist, you might find a model with the ash catcher... ppl are always upgrading or moving, and just looking to get rid of it cheap.
My favorite weber is the one I find on the curb for free... drill out and replace the one-touch cleaning system. $25 grill. You can usually find one or two per year if you're looking. The things look and work like brand new.
I love my Weber Premium! I smoked a whole chicken on it today, yum! I’m going to do a brisket for Easter! I would recommend those charcoal holders for anyone buying it, they are inexpensive and do a great job! I think most of the great pit masters, in their heart of hearts probably love their Weber 22” the best! Klaus
I have the 18.5 and 22 inch Webers. Get the 22inch if you want to smoke meats (brisket, slab of ribs X5, 1/3 of beef clod, etc.). The taller height of the 22 makes it easier to cook food such as beer can chicken, slab of ribs on its side to smoke. I've smoked meats using the snake method on both 18.5 and 22; 22 gives you more width and height.
I had a huge char griller smoker that I was using as a regular grill for burgers, and it was awful to maintain. I decided to get the Weber premium $175 for the burgers and veggies and it's so easy to maintain.
Don't be afraid to go with the basic 22" as prices have skyrocketed lately (2024). I clean my grill out before every use to get gunk out of the bottom, so the one-touch is not really needed. I also dial in the vent on top for temps because I do a lot of low and slow using the snake method so leaving the bottom wide open to avoid getting blocked with ash or drippings is wise. I have had mine for many years and paid $74 for it new. I use it for everything but brisket and pork shoulder and for those we use the offset.
Wow, that is an impressive collection. I love the original 22". Thing Idon't like about the new Weber Kettles is they move the hook from the old location, old location worked better. Nicely done video!
I got a 22" Premium black kettle with a cover as an anniversary gift from work. It's the best thing they've ever done for me, that's for sure. 5 years ago I got a small wine refrigerator which as also cool though. Before that it was nothing but junk, but man this grill is something else I'm tellin' ya!
I have a weber 22.5 grill and I added a Weber rotisserie insert. Goes between the pot and the lid. Works great for rotisserie chicken, pork and beef roasts.
Great explanation! I graduated to pellet from propane last summer. Now summer 2021.....if we are all still around I'm looking to learn charcoal. Thank you sir!
Oh Yes! They are awesome value, REALLY hard to beat, and almost indestructible!? 22" is a great cooking size too. Mine sat outside in the weather for 5 years (live in the Mid South). I actually installed a thermometer on the lid before Weber ever did! ;-) I passed it on to my son, who had it for 3 years (lives on the Gulf Coast) and he passed it on to a friend, who still uses it frequently and it hasn't weathered a bit after 11 years! Love, love, love my Webers!
The wife when she cooks goes for the weber gas. Going to buy the master kettle when i grill. Best of both worlds, and we are both happy. Great review, sir.
Don't know when you posted this but just today I was at Home Depot. They have the Weber BBQs on a shelf so I wasn't able to compare. I had to leave my beloved 22" inch behind when I moved and now I want a replacement. Thanks for the video.
I got my 22 deluxe for Father’s Day about 12 years ago. I have used it a couple times a week since I got it and it’s still rock solid. Too bad everything you buy isn’t built like a Webber
Cool thing about these are you can modify it thanks to amazon you can buy the original 22 inch, upgrade the ash catcher install thermometers, add a handle to the damper,
40 and inmid life crisis. Just bought my first Weber. 1993 Red Master Touch that looks as new, even the wood! €125 well spent. With the extra money I bought a Red Box Smoker. From a wobly barbecook to a real setup. I am a happy Belgian pit apprentice.
Awesome video man. I knew nothing about Weber grills until i bought one at a garage sale for 10 bucks a few years ago. (18 inch older model) Since then i learned how to smoke a brisket using the snake method. Unfortunately the grill is pretty beaten up so i'll be getting a new one soon. This video really helped me a lot
I'ver had the Premium 22" for about 10 years. The ash-catcher housing that is attached to the bottom the kettle rusted away at the attachment point -- where the lip slides into the leg connection. Time for a new one, me thinks, but my wife says deal with it.
I've been on the road a bunch this past 2 months. The next video release is a 26r cooking brisket , hot n fast!!! 2 weeks (still on the road) Thanks for tuning in!
I've got the 26, It's incredible. I cook for a crowd so the space is nice. It does required more charcoal . I look at my 22" now and it seems TINY! I find myself using it way more than the 22". I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!
thank you so much for this video. i'm in the market for a new kettle and you provided us with a concise breakdown of the differences between the master touch and premium. now if only i could find the master touch in red 😝
THANKS FOR WATCHING MATT! So, the anniversary edition that came out last year is red. But, it's not the master touch gourmet, but it has the one touch system. You can customize it to be just like the Gourmet though.
@@btfoaccounting2902 Aha!!!! so funny, i just watched Baby Back Maniac give a tour, and thought the same!! I have about 30 or so at the house, and about 10 or so in storage..Issues!! lol
I clicked on your link to the Master touch, and Weber is not offering any of the extras such as the coal baskets and warming rack in the purchase of the grill. . It's just the grill.
Love your videos sir! I have a 26 inch and I’m struggling with it can you do some videos with the 26?! I feel like the size of the grill stops it from getting hot enough a tutorial videos would be magnificent!
I just bought my second green premium grill. The only way that I know of to get a Weber Grill in a color than black is to order it online. I got mine on Amazon with free shipping. If you go to the Weber website they charge for shipping.
What's's up? You said we would get to the 26" later...I watched the entire video and we never got there. Why was a 26" even pictured? Im trying to decide between a 22 and a 26
So I'm going over some Weber grills with my 75 year old dad. As soon as you said "SSSSSSSS, Sear City", in complete monotone voice he goes "That's the one" with that old man, deadass look in his eyes. I absolutely lost it.
My Dad has a 22" kettle that is about 30 years old that has THREE Daisy wheels on bottom for ventilation. I'm not sure if it has the external lever for ash cleaning. I've never seen another like it and I've never seen anyone online talking about that set-up. How about you? BTW: My only kettle is a red, gen 1 performer that I picked up in 1998 or 1999 for $25. It was years later before I realized what a bargain I got.
I love your reviews! I was leaning towards Napoleon Pro 22, but after watching your reviews, I'm gonna stick with the Weber, and go for a master touch premium 22.
I caught the basic one on clearance at my local wall wrld for 49 bux 2 years ago. Could not pass on that. Added a thermometer to the lid. Love that grill
I bought the premium 22" im happy to see the function of the small lid to put the cover on the side ! I didn't know that! I choose the cooper edition can't wait to receive it
How did I miss your channel? A fellow Weber aficionado. I have the Weber platinum performer bro with the propane starter it’s awesome. You need it. Nice video very nice.
THANX but what about the 4th and largest one you have there?? Here in Greece, it's 2ice the price!! Any advice as to where in the US I can order from??
I have an original , it must be a 26 inch. I’ve had it for over fifteen years, and it’s still going. Thinking about getting a lazy man smoker. Electric with an app
Good video. Reminds me back when I was living in Costa Rica for a year 8 years ago. While down there my roommates and I (with some help of course) built ourselves our own grill by cutting a stainless steel barrel in half. It's probably still there being used to this day.
BBQ IT. I have a family of 3. I just ordered the 18” weber original charcoal kettle grill. Do you think this will work for me or should I have gone with the 22”? Your opinion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Chris
Christopher Vogt 18” is good for family of three. Anymore and you should go 22 or 26. Im family of 5 and have the 18”. I can only cook meat and no room for veggies. Many times my fam has to wait until everything is cooked. Well, at least it teaches my kids patience.
I would say you can cook most meals for 3 on that one. Buuuuut, I would look into a Weber Performer, perhaps even used online FB, Clist, and you'll be overjoyed at the versatility you will have by having 2 grills at all times!!! GOOO LUCK AND RING DA BELL!
I like the new 22" for 109.00. Do mods yourself and save 169.00. The Weber Thermometer lasts about an hour, and that fancy Ash catcher? You pinch it together and the pan swivles and dumps on the ground. You can view mods all over TH-camland.
Can anyone tell me why the price might be justified compared to the cheaper 150 dollar nexgrills at with offset smokers at home depot? Im trying to decide which one to buy and if its worth it to get the weber instead. And also what is the purpose of the charcoal pans vs just putting the charcoal in without them?
COVID-19 Quarantine time and... I'm going with the Master Touch, thank you for the video... I had the charcoal baskets in my cart on Amazon which is $20.00 right now. So basically for $35 more I can get the nicer wheels and a few extra perks. Thanks again!!
I love my 15 year-old 18" but it's just a bit too small for my needs and I want to upgrade... but I just can't bring myself to do it because I love that little guy (gift from my Dad) and I'm not a 2-grill-owning man. Yet.
If I purchase the 22in premium, can I purchase the gourmet grate with the access doors separately at a later time? Or are those only made for the master touch grills? Thanks for the video!
I just got a free 18in original that needs a bit of work (needs cleaning and new grates). I feel like the 18in is a bit on the smaller side. I'm not a professional or doing a bunch of cooking; do people find the 18in being too small?
The 18 is fantastic! It's good for many things, it all just depends on the amount of people that are eating. HIt me back w any questions you have! Thank you as well for watching!! If ya can, hit subscribe and click the bell, and like when ya like. It helps me get my videos in rotation!
I'm just looking for a good charcoal grill, that's bare bones and will last a very long time. Something good for an occasional weekend cookout. I'm leaning more towards the original Weber, any recommendations?
OG Weber 22”. I’m not an occasional guy. I rip this thing up 3-4 times per week. The OG 22 is the advanced version, but if you need thermometers and ash catchers and all that, buy the more expensive types. And swallow your pride.
Do they sell the small kettle size with the ash catcher, thermo and different colors??? I hate needing to use a heap of charcoal when only cooking for two people..
Best grill ever made.. I have the 18 inch classic for 10 years and it’s still going strong. Excellent investment.
@Devitz DandruFF excellent purchase, not an investment
I bought my 18” kettle in 1973 and it still works great.
Ohhhh man!!!Send a photo Randy!!! I would LOVE to see it!
Damn I was born 3 years later. Talk about getting your money's worth.
The ash catcher alone is worth the $50 upgrade... you can bbq three or four times before dumping out the bin... vs everytime on the original model and not make a huge mess on the ground. Thermometer on lid is a very nice bonus.
The ash catcher is the winner for sure!!! I love my 26r the most!

Great explanation of Weber models!
I think the premium is the Best Buy. Has everything you need and price point is about right.
Swing by The Home Depot and pick up a pair of the side coal grate fences (before the baskets came out) for indirect heat BBQ and your all set.
Good information!
I'm so glad it helped!!! And thank you so much for watching the videos!
Got the Master Touch for Dad Day! Wish the rack below was tall enough to store my chimney.
Is it normal for Weber grills to feel "low"? I wanna get one but at 6'-4" they feel tiny to me

I love my 15 year-old 18" but it's just a bit too small for my needs and I want to upgrade... but I just can't bring myself to do it because I love that little guy (gift from my Dad) and I'm not a 2-grill-owning man. Yet.
radishjunk I would recommend the Weber master touch kettle in deep ocean blue, I own one and it’s awesome.
Your lamb tailgate video featured a gorgeous wooden grill table with a weber grill on each end. Is this table sold by online anywhere?
I made it for the show. I'll post some videos about it asap!!! And thanks for watching, Ring da bell and subscribe!!!
If I purchase the 22in premium, can I purchase the gourmet grate with the access doors separately at a later time? Or are those only made for the master touch grills? Thanks for the video!
Anthony you can get the grate separate
Jay Bennett o ok, appreciate the reply
I just got a free 18in original that needs a bit of work (needs cleaning and new grates).
I feel like the 18in is a bit on the smaller side. I'm not a professional or doing a bunch of cooking; do people find the 18in being too small?
The 18 is fantastic! It's good for many things, it all just depends on the amount of people that are eating. HIt me back w any questions you have! Thank you as well for watching!! If ya can, hit subscribe and click the bell, and like when ya like. It helps me get my videos in rotation!
Great prices now these grills, now the end of summer, after Labor Day (USA).
I’m a Weber fanatic. Great walkthrough of their fine products. I own a 22” basic kettle, WSM and a Weber Summit Charcoal Grill
Thanks again! So much more to come, so stay tuned! And thanks for watching, Ring da bell and subscribe!!!
I have three Weber grills 1985 22" a 18" Jumbo Joe and a 14" Smokey Joe the Smokey Joe is my favorite and most used
FANTASTIC! I have a few 22's, 18's, SJ's, and performers. Plus the 26r. I haven't even cooked on the 18's yet!! thanks for subscribing!!!

The only weber grill to buy if space is not a limiting factor is a 26in hands down.
I'm just looking for a good charcoal grill, that's bare bones and will last a very long time. Something good for an occasional weekend cookout. I'm leaning more towards the original Weber, any recommendations?
OG Weber 22”.
I’m not an occasional guy. I rip this thing up 3-4 times per week. The OG 22 is the advanced version, but if you need thermometers and ash catchers and all that, buy the more expensive types. And swallow your pride.
Do they sell the small kettle size with the ash catcher, thermo and different colors???
I hate needing to use a heap of charcoal when only cooking for two people..
They do!! The 18 at least, not the 14. Thanks for watching!! And thanks for the Sub!!
