Weber Searwood XL 600 Wood Pellet BBQ – Black | 1500202

The Weber Searwood XL 600 Pellet Barbecue brings together the convenience of a digitally controlled pellet smoker and the higher-temperature performance expected from a traditional barbecue. Its exceptionally broad 80°C to 315°C cooking range lets you smoke brisket overnight, roast a whole chicken, bake pizza or finish steaks over intense heat—all from one outdoor cooking system.

• 80°C–315°C temperature range for low-and-slow smoking, roasting, baking, grilling and high-temperature searing
• DirectFlame™ cooking and full-grate Sear Zone for deeper browning, crispier results and distinctive sear marks
• Large 6,270cm² two-level cooking area with space for family gatherings, parties and batch cooking
• Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® connectivity with remote monitoring and control through the Weber Connect® app
• Rapid React™ PID and SmokeBoost™ for fast preheating, temperature recovery and enhanced wood-fired flavour

Smoke, roast, grill and sear on one barbecue

Set the Searwood XL 600 as low as 80°C for long, controlled smoking sessions or raise the temperature to 315°C for grilling, browning and searing. This versatility makes it suitable for brisket, pulled pork and ribs as well as steaks, burgers, chicken, vegetables and wood-fired pizza.

Instead of requiring constant fire management, the digitally controlled pellet system automatically feeds hardwood pellets into the burn pot to maintain the selected cooking temperature. You get authentic wood-fired flavour with considerably less supervision than a conventional offset smoker.

DirectFlame™ cooking with a full-grate Sear Zone

The Searwood is designed to overcome one of the traditional limitations of pellet grills. Its DirectFlame™ cooking system allows heat from the fire to reach the food more directly, helping to create stronger browning, crispier skin and more defined sear marks.

The Sear Zone extends across the full cooking grate rather than restricting high-temperature cooking to a small section. This means you can place more steaks, burgers or chops over intense heat at the same time—particularly useful when cooking for a crowd.

Rapid React™ temperature control

Weber’s Rapid React™ PID controller is designed to reach the selected cooking temperature in 15 minutes or less under Weber’s test conditions. It also responds quickly when the lid is opened, helping the barbecue recover lost heat and return to its target temperature.

That faster recovery is particularly useful when checking several items during a cook and when barbecuing in the cooler or changeable conditions commonly experienced across Ireland and Northern Ireland.

Enhance wood-fired flavour with SmokeBoost™

Activate SmokeBoost™ at the beginning of a low-and-slow cook to maintain a temperature designed to encourage greater smoke absorption. This helps develop a deeper barbecue flavour and bark on foods such as brisket, pork shoulder, ribs and larger roasting joints.

Once the food has absorbed sufficient smoke, the temperature can be increased to continue the cook normally.

Large two-level cooking capacity

With a total cooking area of 6,270cm², the Weber Searwood XL 600 provides enough room for substantial family meals, parties and batch cooking. The 4,064cm² primary cooking grate is supported by a generous 2,206cm² upper warming rack, allowing different foods to be arranged across two levels.

The upper rack can be used for slower-cooking foods, warming buns, finishing vegetables or holding cooked food while the main course is completed below.

Monitor your barbecue from the Weber Connect® app

Built-in Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® connectivity allow the Searwood XL 600 to communicate with the Weber Connect® app on a compatible smartphone. From the app, you can monitor and adjust the barbecue temperature, follow food-probe readings, view cooking graphs, receive readiness alerts and access guided recipes.

This is especially useful during longer smoking sessions, allowing you to keep an eye on the cook without remaining beside the barbecue throughout the day.

Manual Mode for open-lid cooking

Manual Mode provides a steady fan and pellet-feed level rather than relying solely on the lid-closed temperature setting. It is intended for cooking techniques where the lid may remain open, including griddle-style cooking and other direct-heat applications.

Easy front-access cleaning

Pellet barbecues naturally produce both grease and wood ash. Weber’s pull-and-clean grease and ash management system is positioned at the front of the barbecue, making routine cleaning more accessible.

Regularly removing accumulated grease and ash helps maintain consistent airflow, dependable ignition and even cooking performance.

Expand your outdoor cooking options

The Searwood XL 600 can be expanded with compatible Weber accessories, including a griddle insert, rotisserie and selected WEBER CRAFTED® grillware. These accessories allow the barbecue to be used for griddle breakfasts, rotisserie chicken, pizza, stir-frying and a wider range of outdoor meals.

Please note that optional griddles, rotisseries and other specialist cooking accessories are sold separately unless specifically included in the selected promotional bundle.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Weber Searwood XL 600 a smoker or a barbecue?
It is both. The 80°C minimum temperature supports low-and-slow smoking, while the 315°C maximum temperature and DirectFlame™ system allow higher-temperature grilling and searing.

Can the Searwood XL 600 sear steaks?
Yes. It reaches temperatures of up to 315°C and uses DirectFlame™ cooking with a full-grate Sear Zone to create stronger browning and sear marks than are normally associated with a traditional pellet smoker.

How large is the Weber Searwood XL 600?
It provides 6,270cm² of total cooking space across two levels. It is designed for larger families, regular entertaining and cooking several foods simultaneously.

Does the Weber Searwood require electricity?
Yes. A mains electrical supply is required to operate the digital controller, ignition system, pellet auger and internal fan. The barbecue must complete its proper shutdown cycle before being disconnected from power.

Can I control the Searwood XL from my phone?
Yes. Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® connectivity allow the barbecue to connect to the Weber Connect® app on a compatible smartphone for remote temperature monitoring, alerts, food-probe information and selected controls.

What type of fuel does it use?
The Searwood XL 600 uses food-grade hardwood barbecue pellets. Pellets intended for heating appliances should never be used for cooking.

Are the rotisserie and griddle included?
No. The compatible Weber rotisserie, griddle insert and most specialist WEBER CRAFTED® accessories are optional and sold separately unless included as part of a specific retailer promotion.

Can the Weber Searwood be left outdoors?
The barbecue is designed for outdoor use, but a correctly fitted Weber cover is strongly recommended. Pellet fuel should be kept dry, and the electrical connection must be suitable for safe outdoor use.

†Weber’s stated preheat time is based on laboratory conditions at an ambient temperature of 25°C using premium hardwood pellet fuel. Actual preheat time may vary with weather, fuel condition and selected temperature.
