Weber Original Kettle Premium 22-Inch Charcoal Grill
High-heat grilling, simple indirect cooks, steak, picanha, and burgers.
These cuts are approximate equivalents — similar in character but with meaningful differences in preparation or exact cut.
Both are flavourful, coarse-grained cuts from the plate/diaphragm area that benefit from high heat and slicing against the grain, but the hanger is a single thicker muscle while the skirt is thinner and wider.
These are related cuts, but not perfect swaps. Use the table below to judge how close your local option is before buying.
