kettle grill

Domed barbecue vessel

A kettle grill is a charcoal grill with a rounded, lidded cooking chamber resembling a kettle.

The dome shape allows heat to circulate around food, enabling both direct grilling and indirect roasting or smoking.

Weber popularized the design in the 1950s, and it remains a backyard staple: He fired up the kettle grill for the cookout.
