Constructed with the sleekness and durability of stainless steel, Weber's Summit grills are arguably the most refined gas grills ever built. The Summit Gold D stands 61 inches tall, 68 inches wide, and 30 inches deep and features an input of 57,600 Btu's per hour. A brand-new burner system, featuring six burner controls on the front of the grill, allows all 648 square inches of the primary cooking area to heat evenly and thoroughly. The Crossover Ignition System lights all burners in succession with the push of one button. The Gold D's expanded total cooking surface of 902 square inches, including main grates, warm-up basket, and warming rack, makes it easy to use various cooking styles: direct grilling for steaks and hamburgers combined with indirect heat for keeping grilled foods warm, toasting bread, or cooking delicate foods like fish and vegetables. The deluxe model in the Summit series, the Gold D also comes with 1) a handy side burner for whipping up side dishes as you grill, 2) a stainless-steel smoker box to give your feasts the option of a smokehouse flavor, and 3) a stainless-steel rear-mounted rotisserie, powered by a 110-volt heavy-duty motor, that allows heat to radiate evenly when cooking roasts, or chicken, or turkey.
The Summit Gold D also boasts restaurant-grade enhancements, such as a commercial-grade front-mounted thermometer and two stainless steel grates that are robot-welded together for incredible strength. With the 12-foot quick-disconnect hose, connecting your natural gas supply is, literally, a snap. There are even spiderproof screens specially created to eliminate the frustrating problem of burner tubes clogged by cobwebs--Weber really did think of everything.
Redesigned for the Summit series, Weber's sturdy cart gives you even more strength and space with two swing-up work surfaces. When you've finished cooking, you can store all your tools and gear in the enclosed storage area equipped with stainless-steel doors and side panels, then roll the grill away on its crackproof all-weather wheels. Setting the grill up for the first time is a snap, too: thanks to Weber's StopWatch Engineering, all summit models take only 40 minutes to unpack and assemble, and--presto!--your grill is ready to go. Made in the USA. --Rhonda Langdon
