The subject of Weber 70th Anniversary Kettles came up in this thread, but I want it to have a dedicated thread for discussion here.
I have confirmed with two independent sources that for 2022, Weber is introducing four 70th Anniversary Edition kettle grills insatin black pale blue, metallic gray, white pale green, and a yellow that's reminiscent of vintage kettles.
These grills come with retro features like wooden lid/bowl/damper handles, wooden rollers on the lid bale, whitewall wheels, and special 70th anniversary badging. However, one source says the wooden handles are actually wood-grained injection molded plastic, so we'll have to wait for confirmation or denial on that.
Pricing and timing of availability is unknown at this time.
Note from Moderator: On 9/28, I received an email from Tom Fuller, Weber's Global Category Director, Charcoal Grills, requesting that I take down the two images in this post showing 70th anniversary kettle concepts. These restricted, confidential images found their way into a Facebook group post where TVWBB member Kyle in Woodstock spotted them and reposted them. In the spirit of ongoing cooperation and good relations with Weber, I have taken them down per Tom's request.
