Your Weber ® gas barbecue is a portable outdoor cooking appliance. With the Weber
gas barbecue you can grill, barbecue, roast and bake with results that are difficult to
duplicate with indoor kitchen appliances. The Weber
can easily change its location in your yard or on your patio. Portability means you can
take your Weber ® gas barbecue with, if you move.
Liquid Propane (LP) gas supply is easy to use and gives you more cooking control than
charcoal fuel.
