We simply wanted to cook a better steak
Grilling Is More Than What Sears On The Grate
1952
Born from a buoy.
In 1952 George Stephen Sr. was working at Weber Brothers Metal Works in Chicago, Illinois, manufacturing marine buoys when he came up with an idea for a better grill. His invention: a dome-shaped grill with a lid to protect food from the elements, while sealing in that only-from-the-grill barbecue flavor.
George Stephen cut a buoy in half, added some air vents and legs and, in the process, invented the grill that would spark a backyard revolution.

When George Stephen created the first Weber® grill, he wanted to be able to bring his family together for a good meal. He insisted on a product that would exceed customers’ expectations. Since 1952 Weber has been a staple in backyards. We’re in it for the long haul. We back our products with generous warranties and a lifetime of customer service. We have the most rigorous quality control measures in the industry. It’s not good enough until we’ve proved it. This is why every grill is inspected and lit before it leaves our factory to ensure that only perfection arrives in your backyard.
TODAY, THAT SAME BOOTSTRAP SPIRIT OF
INNOVATION GOES INTO EVERYTHING WE DO.
When we wanted to add more flavor in our food,
WE INVENTED FLAVORIZER® BARS.
Flavorizer Bars are angled just right to catch drippings that smoke and sizzle, adding that irresistible smoky flavor that we all know and love to your food.
When we became frustrated with grilling in the dark,
WE ADDED A HANDLE LIGHT.
The powerful LED of the Grill Light illuminates the entire cooking area of the grill so that you see the true color of your food, no matter what time of day.
THE WEBER ORIGINAL COOKING SYSTEM
Our legendary cooking system is the heart and soul of every gas grill we make. It’s the reason our grills perform the way they do, and why they last so long.
