Should have this in a few days. Was looking at some old bbq recipe books and was drawn to this one as it came up in a search on ebay. The pic shows a better homes and garden bbq book from the 50's - not a big deal, several of these can be found on eBay and amazon. But, the Weber Grill on the title was referring to pic number 2. This must have come with the kettle or used for advertising. Must be old as it says weber bros metal works on the first page. Probably was put in the recipe book 50 years ago and forgotten about. Paid $9 for both.

Awesome Find!!!!!
Haven't seen that one before, looking forward to seeing the rest of it
-
I saw that too! Good score!

That is way cool. I have never seen that one before. 8)

Number Six
"Eliminating the need for a grill adjustment crank for over 60 years"
Gives you also some idea of the distribution in those days.....that little figure in the left corner "10M" means the printing was a run of ten thousand.......I think the 4 58 is April of 1958, maybe.......
-
That's awesome
-
When it arrives, will post some pics. I can also scan into PDF as well.

Who had the other Woodale Weber brochure and what was it's date?
WKC is fast becoming the unofficially official online Weber authority.

Fantastic find!

Wow - there is another one of these that has surfaced. Will be interesting to see if there are any differences. I googled it some, but I didn't really find anything.

Just searched covered cooking in the WKC forum and found it

Looks similar but does have differences
-
Yours is older because G's say's "Weber-Stephens, formally known as Weber Brothers Metals".
Very nice

Just got the brochure today.
Here a few pics of some of the inside pages.

The other pages are some recipes/cooking times, etc. I do believe this was the instruction sheet for the barb-b-q kettle. It is pretty cool that it says weber brothers metal works. It looks like it was printed yesterday - no creases or stains.
It makes reference that you can use in an indoor fireplace or covered patio if you eliminate grease flare-ups.

That is very cool!
I like what #8 states in the first pic .... "Don't have to stand guard over food... just relax!" 8) 8)

Very nice pickup Bbqmiller! :D Id be lying if I said I prefer cooking on a One Touch. Yes I love them for cleaning the ashes, yeah the ash cans are nice but I prefer cooking on a daisy wheel/Bar-B-Q-Kettle for temp control. Call me old fashioned, old soul, old school, whatever. ;) I've been tempted to cook on my 18 in my fireplace, but my Wife vetoes it whenever I mention it.
-
Excellent pick up BBQMiller! I want to perve that whole book. i bet there are some cool recipes in there.
-
Thanks for posting the pics. Very cool. I would love to see the the recipes if you get a chance.
-
Here is the whole thing - I used my printer to scan pics, and when I zoom on them using the computer - they are clear. For some reason, they don't zoom on my phone too well ( I use tapatalk)

Thank You for this clear copy !!!
There it is, plain as day.....bottom of Page 2......
" Damper in Cover ALWAYS Remains Open When Cooking"
-
Great stuff. Someone needs to cook up one of the recipes.
-
Thanks, very nice. I might try to make the WB Barbecue Sauce.
-
Id like to try all of these sauces, but the Soy Sauce Marinate I'd have to skip the pinch of MSG. ;) It makes you wonder how many brands of BBQ sauce were readily available at the store in 1958, my guess is, very few if any. I've watched the selections double since the 80s alone.

'Plain as day' is right. . . this whole brochure is like a perfect distillation of weber grilling best practices. Simple, uncomplicated, easy!
Kudos to the OP for posting.

That's very cool! If you get me the hi-resolution (and perhaps uncropped) images, I'll put together a PDF of the brochure. I could probably do that with the images you posted ...
I've done that with the manual that came with my CGA (and which I am about to update with pictures of the box) and I liked the results. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B40OVhhFaentZzNmdEx3a0dub3c/edit?usp=sharing

Let me know. I think I have scanned PDF's on the computer. They may be higher definition than the photos I uploaded.
