Weber Charcoal Grills & Smokers at Ace Hardware

If you’re like me, you might also prefer a reverse sear, especially if you’re cooking thick cuts of steak, or pork chops. Instead of spreading out your lit coals, gather them to one side of the grill. Now place your steaks on the opposite side of the grill grate, where they’ll get seared with indirect heat. What’s more important to know is how hot things are at grill grate level. That’s why I suggest using a metal grill clip to mount your thermometer right on the grates.

The Kettle’s foldable hinged cooking grates making it easy to replace charcoal as it burns out. Its 22-inch width gives you a 363-square inch cooking surface to work with, which is more than enough for a portable unit like this. In the case of kettle models, we arrange coals in a semicircle around the grill’s inner wall.

Requests for orders to be placed beyond the first threshold/entryway may require an additional fee at the local store’s discretion. While this might put some people off, it’s also what has drawn so many people (including us!) to the beautiful cooking art form.

Our R&D department develops high-quality, fairly priced grilling equipment. While a charcoal chimney is one of the most highly recommended methods for lighting charcoal, Electric starters, such as the Looftlighter, work great (and they’re fast). There are many seasoned grillers who will only use lump charcoal no matter what kind of grill they’re using. Our experts lean toward lump charcoal due to the lack of additives often found in briquettes. Outstanding Customer Service- Weber is well known in the BBQ industry for having excellent customer service.

The same goes for searing burgers, steak and vegetables, as well as grilling seafood. Not only this but charcoal cooking gives you a far smokier taste than can be created with most gas grills. Largely because of higher cooking temperatures, but also because you can use charcoal and portable bbq wood chips. We placed two steaks on each grilling grate near the center and seared them for five minutes before flipping them over and searing for another five minutes. With a good, reliable grill, this will give you a steak with a seared outside and a medium rare to medium center.
