Cooking System - Weber Summit Series Owner's Manual

COOKING SYSTEM

Extensive thought was put into how your charcoal
grill was designed. Weber grills are designed so
®
that you never have to worry about flare-ups, hot
and cold spots, or burnt food. Expect excellent
performance, control, and results every time.
Bowl and Lid
A
The air-insulated, double-wall bowl and lid
retain heat for longer cook times and excellent
temperature control. The unique kettle shape
of your Summit charcoal grill allows for true
®
convection cooking.
Dampers and Vents
B
A major component in charcoal grilling is
air. The more air allowed into the grill, the
hotter the fire will grow (to a point) causing
the charcoal to burn much faster. The bowl
vent on the bottom of the grill should be open
while grilling or in the smoke position while
smoking. The top damper is used to control the
temperature within the grill; however, should
never be completely closed.

Cooking Grate
Made of heavy-duty stainless steel, the cooking
grate provides ample area to make all of your
favorite meals.
Diffuser Plate
D
The stainless steel diffuser plate is used to
maintain a consistent temperature and to
direct heat and smoke around the food. It
is always used while smoking. However, it
can also be used while cooking indirectly to
maximize grilling space.
Fuel Grate
E
The fuel grate has what it takes to withstand
the heat of any charcoal fire. Made of heavy-
duty steel, this durable grate will not warp
or burn through. The grate can be moved to
a higher position in the bowl for grilling and
lower position for smoking.
One-Touch Cleaning System
F
™
The stainless steel One-Touch
system makes cleanup hassle free. As you
move the handle back and forth, the three
blades in the bowl move ash from the bottom
of the grill into the high capacity ash catcher
for quick and clean ash removal. These same
vents act as a bowl damper, to help bring
oxygen up to the fire or to allow you to easily
extinguish the fire.
