Product overview

Weber Searwood 600: What to Know

The Searwood 600 is Weber's second attempt at a pellet grill after retiring the SmokeFire, which drew persistent owner complaints about grease flare-ups and uneven heat before Weber redesigned the platform from the ground up. The Searwood's headline feature is DirectFlame technology: a full-width opening under the cooking grate that lets you drop from smoking temperatures straight down to a genuine 600°F open-flame sear without switching appliances, which is unusual for a pellet grill — most either can't get that hot or can't sear evenly across the whole grate.

In practice that means the Searwood 600 is aimed less at the 'set it and walk away for 14 hours' overnight-brisket crowd and more at cooks who want one grill that can smoke a pork shoulder on Saturday morning and then sear steaks hot enough to get real color that evening. Rapid React, Weber's PID-style controller, is built to recover heat quickly after the lid opens, which matters more on this grill than most because searing means opening the lid repeatedly.

One verification note: this Amazon ASIN is shared between the U.S. and U.K. Amazon marketplaces, which is why it briefly rendered in GBP pricing with a false shipping-restriction banner during part of our research session. We confirmed it's a genuine, actively-sold U.S. listing — matching exact listing title, real product images, 66 customer ratings at 4.5 stars, and independent confirmation from a U.S. deal-tracking thread and Weber's own U.S. product page at the same model number.

Buying questions

Quick Answers

Is the Searwood 600 the same as the discontinued SmokeFire?

No, it's a different, later design. Weber retired the SmokeFire after persistent flare-up and heat-consistency complaints and rebuilt the pellet grill around new DirectFlame searing hardware for the Searwood line.

Do I need Weber-brand pellets in the Searwood 600?

Weber's manual recommends its own pellets and the auger is tuned around them, but many owners report running other hardwood pellet brands without issues as long as the pellets are dust-free.
