Founding Story

We were founded on the belief that there is nothing better than enjoying a delicious meal outside with the ones you love. This premise is at the heart of Weber. In 1952, George Stephen took his love for barbecue -- along with his passion for the perfect grilled steak -- and combined them with a revolutionary grill design inspired by the shape of a buoy. This gave birth to widespread enthusiasm for the kettle grill and the start of what would become the world's leading barbecue brand.
