Hier een uitleg hoe je kunt zien uit welk bouwjaar je Weber houtskool/briketten BBQ is.
Deze lijst staat ook elders hier op het Genootschap maar hier bij Tips, Tricks & Tutorials makkelijker te vinden.
De codes staan vermeld op de luchtschijf:
In 1979, Weber began using an alphabetic date code to represent the model year of each Weber charcoal grill.
Initially, the date code was a single letter, starting with the letter A in 1979 and ending with the letter P in 1993. Since the WSM was first introduced for the 1981 model year, most of the oldest WSM cookers have a C date code, but a few have a B date code.
Starting in 1994, Weber switched to a two-letter code based on the word "AUTHORIZED", where A = 1, U = 2, T = 3, H = 4, O = 5, R = 6, I = 7, Z = 8, E = 9, and D = 0. For example, the code EZ is 98 for 1998, DD is 00 for 2000, AU is 12 for 2012, and so on.
Starting in 2013, in addition to the two-letter date code, Weber introduced a new alphanumeric serial number consisting of two letters + seven numbers. The serial number is etched into the lid vent damper only and is also printed on the carton barcode. The two letters represent the year of manufacture based on the word "CONSUMABLE", where C = 1, O = 2, N = 3, S = 4, U = 5, M = 6, A = 7, B = 8, L = 9, and E = 0. For example, CNxxxxxxx is 13 for 2013, CSxxxxxxx is 14 for 2014, and so on.
Note that Weber's model year is not a calendar year. The Weber model year runs from October 1 to September 30. For example, a grill with date code AT or serial number CNxxxxxxx is part of the 2013 model year. It may have been manufactured anytime between 10/1/2013 and 9/30/2014.
It seems likely that the older two-letter code will be discontinued at some point in the future, given that it duplicates the function of the newer alphanumeric serial number. At the time of this writing in 2014, both continue to be used together on Weber grills.

Here's the list of alphanumeric serial number date codes and their corresponding years:
CNxxxxxxx: 2013
CSxxxxxxx: 2014
CUxxxxxxx: 2015
Since this code scheme was also used for gas grills as early as 2005, it’s likely this code scheme was also used that far back for charcoal grills, too. But the earliest known example I’ve seen is this special edition 18.5″ Jim Beam kettle with date code BL from 2012.

2012-Today: “BLAQKSMIXH” Code
Yet another nine-character alphanumeric code found on some Weber charcoal kettles consists of two letters + seven numbers—two letters represent the model year using the word “BLAQKSMIXH” as the key and seven numbers as a serial number.Since this code scheme was also used for gas grills as early as 2005, it’s likely this code scheme was also used that far back for charcoal grills, too. But the earliest known example I’ve seen is this special edition 18.5″ Jim Beam kettle with date code BL from 2012.
