Weber Traveler Review: Is the Premium Portable Grill a Good Buy?

Sufficient and consistent output power over a large grilling surface provides more than enough heat to sear thick-cut meats. Yet, it is versatile enough to put beautiful grill marks on veggies or thinner cuts like a tri-tip without burning them. The fully enclosed lid offers protection from high winds, and the wheeled, stand-up design is so easy to transition that you can do it with just one hand. The Traveller is a top-of-the-line grill built to last and features performance that can’t be beaten. For most items over 150 pounds our free standard shipping service will be freight and will include free curb-side delivery and lift gate service.

My testing of the grill consisted of turning it on and seeing how long it would take to get to max temperature. The hottest I ever got the grill was around 500°F which took about 7 minutes. Cleaning the grill and the grates is painless, but having the grates seasoned properly is key to preventing all that grease and gunk from sticking to them.

Weber suggests cleaning the cooking grates after every use. They recommend preheating the grill on a high setting for 15 minutes with the lid closed and then using a stainless steel grill brush to clean. After my first cook, the grates were so clean that I just took them to the sink to clean. If you need to do a more thorough cleaning, Weber has a cooking grate cleaner and scrubber pads in the Weber Maintenance Kits.

Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can’t be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery.

Once the cooking tests are complete, we consult with experts and seek advice on the best ways to clean, store, and maintain the grill. The Weber Traveler is an ideal option for people with limited space who need to move their grill out of sight after cooking. It is also a great choice for those who want to take their grill on a trip in an RV or move it around the yard to avoid the sun.

All stock availability and shipping times vary and can change rapidly. If you have any concerns, please contact our customer service team. If you’re seeking a grill with more capacity than a traditional portable grill but more mobility than a typical full-sized grill, the weber natural gas grill is a solid buy and represents good value at $399. It’s a sturdily built unit that comes together in a snap and is completely user-friendly. If you’ve never grilled a single day in your life, I still don’t think you have any problems assembling and operating the Traveler. In my testing, the grill heated quickly (hit 500 degrees F in minutes) and stayed hot.

Nothing beats its balance of features, size, portability , design and durability. Most items shipped via standard parcel service may be expedited for an additional cost to decrease shipping time or guarantee delivery by a certain date. This does not include processing time, which may or may not be altered subject to manufacturer resources and discretion. Items shipped via freight are shipped at the fastest available speed (Priority Freight) and are, therefore, unable to be expedited further. Finally, the grill grates are made of heavy-duty, cast iron which I personally prefer cooking on over others made of porcelain-coated or stainless steel. In my opinion, cast iron holds its seasoning longer and sears meat the best.

It combines the ease of transport with the performance of a full-sized Weber, ensuring that no matter where your travels take you, the promise of a perfectly grilled meal is never out of reach. At home, I cooked all kinds of meats, from chicken thighs and wings, to brats and salmon filets. Everything cooked in a reasonable time with that delicious, grilled flavor that Weber has built an empire with.
