From a 1959 Ad.  I bet it did not run for long!:

In an ongoing relationship with a kettle named Bisbee.

Weber literature at one point included the notion that you could cook indoors.  Different times, to be sure.

The 1958 brochure says that too. They MIGHT have been referring to the "Weber Fireplace" but then again, backyard BBQ was still in its infancy back in the late 1950s.. I can imagine someone lighting their grill out back in the winter then rolling it inside the screen porch or garage after a while...

I think they referred to using the standard kettle inside the fireplace - maybe without the legs.

Maybe, but then why have this one?






   I am all for that "Bust-Proof Porcelain Finish" 
"If you want it fancy there is BBQ spray paint at home depot for that. "
    Covered, damper-controlled cooking.....IF YOU PLEASE !!!
           "But the ever versatile kettle reigned supreme"

It's a solid-triangle 56/57 kettle in a '59 ad.

I only use kettles with lid bales.

Still trying to wrap my mind around no smoke and no flames.


Tell me boy, what is the riddle of steel?
