Worth carrying for small cookouts away from home, since the lid locks to the bowl for transport. The grate area is not stated, so it suits a small group rather than a crowd.

Overview
Carrying charcoal grilling to a tailgate, campsite or beach is what the Weber Smokey Joe is built for. The kettle bowl holds the coals under a single grate, and the Tuck-N-Carry lid lock clamps the lid to the bowl so the whole grill lifts as one piece.
Portability is the reason to buy: a light kettle with a lid that locks down for the walk from the car. Weber lists room for a small group, so anyone feeding a full table will run out of grate space. Finish wording is inconsistent, with the description citing porcelain enamel and the spec sheet citing powder coating.
Who it's for
Small patios, campsites and tailgate lots call for a grill that travels in a trunk and needs no propane. Families who cook for larger gatherings at home will want a bigger kettle.
Pros and cons
- Lid lock secures lid for carrying
- Light kettle design for travel
- Porcelain enamel resists scratches and rust
- Stainless steel handle
- Cooking surface area not listed
- Single grate limits batch size
- Finish described two different ways
- Charcoal only, gas is not an option
Performance notes
Heat comes from a charcoal bed directly under the single grate, so cooking temperature follows how much fuel is lit and how long it has burned. The compact bowl places food close to the coals, which suits direct grilling of smaller items. Weber lists heat retention as a feature, so closing the lid holds warmth around the food.
