“Our product lineup for the upcoming barbecue season pushes the boundaries of the types of cooking that can be done outdoors, including bringing popular methods like flat top cooking and baking right to a WEBER grill,” said Jennifer Bonuso, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Global Product Management of Weber. “These new products are shaped by insights from grilling enthusiasts around the world, who crave to create more when they cook outside. We answered that desire by bringing together our best smart technology, new features, and a unique grillware collection.”

ABOUT THE NEW WEBER CRAFTED OUTDOOR KITCHEN COLLECTION

The WEBER CRAFTED Outdoor Kitchen Collection is a line of exclusive, high-quality, interchangeable grillware that enables a variety of different cooking methods. Outdoor cooks can use traditional grill grates or switch in a flat-top surface to open up a world of new foods at the grill, like eggs, pancakes, smashed burgers, and more. Exchange the grates for a baking stone for pizzas, crispy flatbreads, and cookies, or use rotisserie skewers for kabobs and roasted chicken. The Collection transforms the grill into a versatile, complete outdoor kitchen.

The WEBER CRAFTED line features six cooking pieces -- each providing a large cooking surface -- that facilitate steaming, baking, roasting, searing, or flat top cooking right at the grill. The complete grillware Collection consists of a Dual-Sided Sear Grate, Flat Top, Glazed Baking Stone, Roasting Basket, Wok & Steamer, and Rotisserie Skewer pieces. Additionally, it includes specially designed grates and an insert that allows the grillware pieces to be easily changed out on a WEBER gas, charcoal, or pellet grill.

Each WEBER CRAFTED item is sold separately.
