Weber Style 6452 Barbecue Apron


Weber quality with a bottle opener
This is an apron with a bottle opener attached. Done, and done. Seriously though, this is a great quality apron. It's about twice as thick as the "Kiss the Cook" type aprons you can get at the supermarket, and it looks more like what a man would want an apron to look like. It basically looks like they took a car mechanics uniform and turned it into an apron.

It has a small pocket at the top for a probe thermometer, a wide but not deep pocket in the middle, and a beer sized pocket to the side. It also has a bottle opener attached with a little cord.

It would be better with the addition of a small pocket for recipe cards and the like. Also, the neck hole is a little larger than I would prefer. I'm not tucking briskets under my chin or anything, but splashes do happen.

BTW I bought this because I ruined a pair of shorts when I bumped into a greasy part of my grill. Live and learn.

Update: I overlooked the fact that the neck strap and waist ties...
So far so good, nice BBQ apron!
I got this for my husband as an early Father's Day gift. We tried using a apron we had but it wasn't heavy duty enough and looked girly. :) This one is perfect. It's Weber which means it'll last a long time. (I have their 3 BBQ tool set and it looks like brand new after over a year). It has a simple design, is thick material, and the added pockets, adjustable neck strap, and beer can opener! are great add-ons. He likes it and it keeps the flying grease and burning bits off his clothes and body when grilling.
Useful and well made
This is a nice apron for grilling. It has a number of pockets which are great for thermometers, timers and other gadgets you might need, and the built-in bottle opener is at least amusing even if you don't use it often. The loop that goes around your neck is the same strap as the back ties so it is somewhat adjustable (you can shorten the neck loop by lengthening the back ties and vice versa). Pockets are all rather wide, except the one the bottle opener is attached to (which we reserve for that and bottle caps), so objects like cell phones often rotate and lay on their sides at the bottom which may make them harder to grab. Overall, the quality seems high and the detailing is nice.
