With the Weber Summit S 420 grill you will be taking your normal BBQ grilling to the next level with this truly amazing piece of equipment from Weber. The professional looking, high grade aluminum cart with external chrome handles ensures that the grill is protected, easy to maintain and an addition to your garden area. This model also has an in-built central thermometer which enables you to monitor your food and ensure it's cooked at just the right temperature.
The Summit S 420 is one of the best Weber Summit grills you will buy and it will last you for a long time. It has a cooking system rated at 48,800 BTU's and includes 4 powerful stainless steel burners. The in-built flavourizer bars ensure that you don't have any flare ups from greasy food, the fats and juices from the food are quickly evaporated away adding a BBQ flavor to the food rather than burning it, which may BBQ's do.

In addition the grill has a 12,000 BTU side burner which allows you to prepare side dishes easily along with your main food.

This Weber Summit grill, as well as the entire Summit line has a design flaw that Weber refuses to consider an issue. Whenever it rains, water runs down the back and enters the internal drip tray, then flows into a drip pan, which then overflows a greasy water mess onto the cabinet floor. This problem occurs with and without the Weber Premium cover in place. (The cover has a mesh on the back that lets the rain in.)
I give the grill a two star rating because it does do a nice job of cooking … once the mess is cleaned up.

After much reaserch my spouse and decided on the Weber S-420. So far, it has been excellent. It was delivered 98% assembled so as soon as we had the natural gas line hooked up, we were ready to roll. So far steaks, burgers and hot dogs have been cooked, all to perfection. Great grill marks, too! It cooks quicker than my former BBQ so I do have to watch it as things tend to get done sooner. We are quite plesed with this BBQ!

I bought this grill for my recent let’s say, milestone, birthday. I researched grills for over 2 months. I knew Weber was a good brand but wished to consider other options. My research always pointed back to “buy a Weber”. Weber’s customer service was always rated A-1, they’ve been bbq/grilling experts for years, and you know they’ll be around in the future. The one kicker for the Summit S-420 model over a stainless Weber Genesis S-320 was a comment from a friend of mine with a nice stainless Jenn-Air model found at Lowes. He wished the rotisserie was positioned higher on the Jenn-Air. In my assessment of grills, I had never considered the importance of the rotisserie height. After looking at the Genesis S-320 and Jenn-Air models again, it became clear that a turkey or large roast might not work on the rotisserie of the other models. The Summit S-420 and other Summit grills solves this problem by providing a much higher rotisserie position. Add to that a much taller cover, and you’ll see there is greater height for convection around whatever you’re cooking. I’ve grilled hamburgers, salmon, T-bone steaks, and slow cooked smoked pork ribs – all to perfection. No need for a high end smoker feature that permanently reduces grill space – an aluminum foil tray with wood chips atop one of the burners works fine. The Snap-Jet individual burner ignition system was tricky at first. Once you actually read the instructions – Hey I’m a guy – you’ll find the technology is easy and reliable. Quality is the final key to this grill. The stainless everything is impressive and high quality. The side-burner is more than an afterthought and mimics many high-end kitchen gas cook-tops. Even the doors of the storage area below are double sided for sturdiness. I usually have a minor stint of buyer’s remorse after an expensive purchase. I have none. With this grill I can proudly say it’s one of the best purchases/investments I’ve made in years!!!!
