Ratings & Reviews for Weber Kamado E6 24-in W Black Kettle Charcoal Grill

Leaking smoke

Great grill, but leaks smoke around the back of the lid.

Great grill and smoker. Terrible leg design.

Awesome grill/smoker. I would give it 5 stars if it wasn’t for the leg assembly. The screw holes never align right. Could definitely be better designed. The grill itself hold heat for a very long time and could get up in very high temp.

Charcoal Grill

Best Charcoal Grill every owned and reason being it hold heat very well and the options for even smoking low and slow and its a real sturdy grill that will last for years.

EXCELLENT, HUGH QUALITY SMOKER

Love the Summit, used many times for smoking brisket, plus beef spare ribs and pork baby back ribs, even turkey breasts. Excellent heat retention and constant temps make long cooks a breeze. Have used one batch of lump charcoal for up to 12 hours of smoking time. Clean-up of ash is very easy, and the grill can be used for high temps as well. I have done great pizzas on the accessory stone insert. The unit is well built and solid, looks like it will last a long time.

Loving it so far

Have used it 1/2 dozen times now, just now starting to understand how to control the temp. Thing gets hot for sure, very hot, the low and slow is different than I am use to but achievable once you figure it out. Doesn’t use much charcoal, very stable to roll around, coming from kettles thats appreciated. Everything we have smoked or grilled has been great so far, honestly no complaints.

Mostly I like it, but a few tweeks wouldn't hurt

I bought this because I prefer Kamado smoking and grilling over my Pellet or offset. I needed to be able to cook larger cooks, like two turkey's. My 18 inch just can't do that. I have done the turkey, ribs, and 1.5 inch cut pork steaks. I am still getting used to the vent setings but was adle to hold temp easily. Accept when opening the lid the vent moves under its own weight, please increase its resistance if Weber is reading this. Last thing I am used to more head space between the charcoal an...

Possibly the best kamado grill available

This Weber Kamado grill is the best grill out there. The price is up there, so of course it deters many customers. But I wish I would’ve bought this grill first before any kettles were purchased. The temperature holds for a very long time, which makes it great for long smoking sessions. It’s hard to get used to if you’re coming from a regular kettle grill, since regular kettles lose heat quickly.

Summit, Kamado

This is an absolute, hands down one of the best cooking inventions humans have created for cooking and smoking eateries. The double wall invention holds in the temperature even in sub-artic conditions where I live. The inner chamber temperature is never effected and holds either the smoking, or grilling temps perfect, once you understand the charcoal layering technique. The ceramic coating works brilliantly and the shielding base plate works beautifully, once you dial in your very own expressio...

Fantastic grill and oven

I got this to replace my previous Weber grill that I had to let go of when I moved. I have been wanting a Kamado-style grill for a long time, but when I looked at the expense and weight of a traditional ceramic kamado grill, I had second thoughts. I bought this lighter Weber alternative just before Thanksgiving and used it to do our turkey. This grill is fantastic! The heat retention is superb, it makes very efficient use of the charcoal, and the temperature is easy to regulate. I have been a fa...

Solid all round cooker

Purchased this cooker for its versatility and capacity. I really like how fuel efficient it is. Because of that I can do over night cooks in below zero temperatures and not have to worry about running out of fuel. I like the fact it is steel and not ceramic like some other Kamado grills. Weber builds a solid product.

I love the size of the grill, the ease of use.

My first cook was some short ribs, had to cook them for about 5 hours, I got the temperature to 275 once there the grill held that temperature for the duration of the cook, the ribs came out great!
