Weber Fireplace Kettle?

I thought it was someone’s creation until I saw the literature. Weird to think people would grill indoors.

Rare Vintage 1964 Weber 22.5" Fireplace Barbeque Kettle Two-Tone FBK-530 | eBay

The lid is a Red Ranger, likely included by the manufacturer in the original set due to the lack of inventory in Weber-Stephen in 1964. The photos show the exact condition of the item. Condition is Used in Good Condition.

if these were still available, i'd buy one just to use it outdoors.

First time I've seen one, I would be a little nervous actually using inside though.

Yowza. I don't care how well it was designed, burning charcoal indoors is NEVER a good idea for people who want to stay alive.

Nowadays an item like this would have "ambulance chaser" "class action lawsuit" written all over it, if it even got approved for production in the first place.

That’s really cool! Scares the life outta me though, using that in my back room in the fireplace just sounds like a very bad idea!

I wonder how many of them were sold in either size!?

You know fireplaces burned wood in them originally, not all are gas, it would be safer than a open fire popping embers all over lol

I would use it in the fireplace in my grandparents home. The fireplace was pretty large.
