I watch this religiously at the start of every grill season. “It’s the most wonderful time of the year”. Thank you!
This is the cleanest grill to undergo a deep cleaning I've ever seen
I did it the hard way with stinky cleaners and a lot of elbow-grease and just as I was beginning to wonder if BBQ was really necessary in my life, I came inside and watched your very common-sense video! I really appreciate the safer cleaning solution and not needing to clean until sparkling again. Thanks a bunch!
"I was beginning to wonder if BBQ was really necessary in my life" I felt exactly the same after my first time using my grill lol
Thank you the baking soda and vinegar mix saved so much time!! thanks for making this
You are so welcome!
thank you as a seventeen year old art major i have no idea what the hell i am doing, thank you sir have a lovely day
You’re welcome, from an art school graduate.
omg you’re so sweet🥺❣️
@@Hytzii thanks?
Never have i felt more seen
Clearly you don’t know what you’re doing. Why else would you be an art major
I bought this as my first propane grill. It's been a fun, learning experience czcams.com/users/postUgkxCx5fHawkK9OoV-ojFrY8JLnZrFwAmvUt . I think it's a bit too pricey after looking at other grills, but it wasn't hard to put together and it works really well. I love the side burner option for heating food during a power outage. I have an electric stove and live in the South (Hurricane season), so this was a bonus. I also bought a cover for it and it has protected it nicely (the Char Broil All-Season Grill Cover 3-4 Burner: Large). Every few grill sessions, I take the rack (or grate) and burner covers off and clean them with a non-abrasive scrubby and mild soap. I wipe the excess off of the bottom as well, taking care to avoid the gas and pilot lines.
Thank you for great video! I'd like to add that if you are purchasing a plastic scraper (so necessary), make sure it is hard, not bendy, plastic. Also, I find disposable vinyl gloves useful. You can buy a big box of them for not much $. And I learned today that orange flames are bad, so don't skip brushing those burners!! Lastly, in case anyone reading this hasn't heard, little bits of those metal scrub brushes can break off onto your cooking grates, be ingested, and cause great harm. After scrubbing with a metal brush, it is a good idea to use a paper towel to brush the grates.
Dave, Thanks so much for walking me through it all. I believe your guidance will allow me to extend the life of my grill.
Jim Amy Jim! How are you my friend. Glad I can help you clean your grill. Hope you are all well.
Thanks for posting Dave. Good to note that Weber will replace burner tubes up to 10 years after purchase date, as long as you have registered the grill when you bought it. Great company with solid customer service.
will Weber do that for second hand owners of grills if they register the serial number? I bought a 5 year old Genesis grill.
My grill is really dirty and I just took it apart to clean it. I decided to look on CZcams how to clean a grill because I didn't want to use any chemicals. This is exactly what I was looking for. My husband ordered a couple of parts that were in bad shape. Thanks so much Dave for your guidance. It help me a lot. Love your voice!!!
Maggie Maga thanks for watching Maggie. You are the first person to ever comment on my voice, I appreciate that.
Bought my first Weber gas grill..love it. Thanks for the cleaning video.
Big shoutout from Minnesota! Thank you for the video!
This was excellent. Simple process but I needed it... Thanks!
I just took delivery today of a this same model. I can't wait to begin using it. Your video was extremely informative. I'm sure by Summer's end I'll be cleaning mine.Thanks.
I have a similar Webber and love it! Wishing you some great cookouts, enjoy it!
🙏THANK YOU Sir!! Young people today are lost without people like you to help us. My daddy died and he used to take care of this stuff. Daddy always had the answers to my questions and I could always count on him. RIP Daddy.🙏😭😢 Thank you for helping us daddy less girls out here sir!! 🤗💞🤗
I’m glad I could help, and I’m sorry for your loss.
This has saved me from using the wrong tools and chemicals, thank you for putting this out for those of us who need a 'community dad' to explain it to us.

I’m glad I could help
Dude, you’re the best grill video maker out there thank you.
I do t know if that’s true, but I really appreciate it.
Thank you for taking the time to do this, it was very helpful...gave me a game plan for deep cleaning my own Weber tomorrow. I'm grateful for the guidance. :)
You are welcome. Thanks for watching
Appreciate the note not to fuss about getting all back to the original shine, leaving traces is fine. Totally useful-THANKS!
The best gril cleaning video I have ever seen. I only watched 3, but still. Awesome!!!
This was extremely helpful, thank you! Great explanation and thank you for including what tools and pans you use! Made cleaning and cleanup a breeze! 👍
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching
I agree with Kaitlyn!😊👍🏻
Simple and effective techniques. Thanks for the video!
First time checking out your videos (finally decided to give my grill a proper cleaning). Excellent information. Stay well Dave.
Excellent. Come to think of it, I really need to clean mine again too. Thanks for watching
Loved how you explained and showed everything you were doing. AWESOME
Nice demonstration. I am deep cleaning our 6 year old Weber Q3000 for the first time, this morning. Thanks for the tips. Happy grilling!
vinegar and baking soda neutralize each other to form sodium acetate. For the greasy internal parts hot water in a sink with a tbs cascade dishwasher soap plus about 2 tbs washing soda (sodium carbonate) which really cuts the grease with a bit of scrubbing.
I actually usually use Simply Green to clean it now.
Great Video Dave! You gave me some really helpful tips on how to clean my first Weber BBQ Grill 👍🏼
Glad I could help
Just wanted to take a minute to wish u a happy thanksgiving Dave. Thank you for all the time you take to make these videos for us so we can be better pitmaster!
Elliott and Shelley Carman Wow. Thanks. I really appreciate the feedback. Hope you and yours have a happy Thanksgiving.
Thank you SO much - I was clueless about how to clean my Weber, which desperately needs to be cleaned. Now I have more excuses.
mmmm isnt it cheaper to buy another one kkkkkkkk
This is so helpful again, thank you Dave have a nice summer
Thanks Dave. Very helpful and to the point tips. Appreciate your time.
Great tutorial i will trybout the natural cleaning...I just got my weber an want to keep it top knotch...thanks again...new sub.
God Bless and thank you. When cleaning my grill, i always run the burner on high and super hot to burn the grease and powderize any food particle, around 30 minutes after grilling. Then, i can easily scrape off the ashes and wipe clean. No chemicals needed.
Well Done, nice and simple (and all that needs to happen)
Can’t possibly get anymore dad than this guy!
Proud father of twins. Although I’d argue most dads don’t have CZcams channels.
Thanks for posting. You helped me bring my grill that I hadn't used in 3 years back to life!
Thanks Dave! Nice to get some insight from someone who spends a far more appropriate amount of time at the grill than I do! ...while staying away from chemical, as well.
Wade Remington Thanks. I appreciate it.
Thank you for doing this video step by step, Dave. I have a brand new gas grill and need to know how to clean it. 😊
I just bought a used Weber and this is exactly what I needed.
I like to use Dawn dishwashing soap. It does a nice job on grease.
Half white vinegar and half dawn dish soap water. Works great on hard water stains also
Thank You Michael Ott💖 I agree : while watching this video, I'm using DAWN to clean the grill at this very moment of leaving you this comment. I guessed we both make great spokespersons for the dishwashing product.😊
@@Sasquatch__ I truly appreciate your helpful information. THANK YOU 😊💖
Dawn, baking soda and hot water works real well as a degreaser.
I just bought my first gas grill and I was reading that after the first use to clean it right away and i cleaned the grates by brushing it. but the inside still needs to be done. Your video really helped me i have been searching and searching and this has been the easiest and in-depth video I have found. Thank you!!
MotherAngel0482 Thank you. I really appreciate your feedback. Thanks for watching.
Excellent video Dave, very helpful!!!
Very useful information. Seems simple to clean your grill but you gave good ideas. The shop vac idea will work great!
Thank you. This is all you need to know on bbq cleaning.
I love your videos. Great detail! Keep them coming. BTW, I tried your wing recipe for smoking on a gas grill, BEST wings we had ever had!!!
235brady awesome. I love to hear that. I have another wing video coming out soon on the pellet smoker. Slightly different method. Thanks for watching
Tip, swap the flavorizor bars around if not all are used equally. A spray bottle with water will work well for each post grilling cleanup.
You did a great job with instructions for me! Thank you.
Gina Friend Glad to be of service. Thanks for watching.
Nice work dave. thanks. very well organized
Thank you. I had cleaned the barbecue but could not fit the grills back into the barbecue so needed that info.
Good job I own the same grill 5 urs now. I like to take the shop vac to it about everytime I run thru a tank or 2. I haven't used a flat scraper though might have to try that. The vac usually gets most of it. Definitely important to keep it clean as it breathes better when cleaned out and avoid fires. I build high end outdoor kitchens that we install 3 to 5k grills and cost upwards of 50 to 100k and at home I use a Weber just like yours
Thanks for the tips! Used your vinegar / baking soda solution and it worked great!
Awesome. Thanks for watching
Very helpful. Thanks for posting
Great video Dave. I’m really glad I found you on here. Cheers...
COOKING WITH CAD thanks for watching
You bet...you have great content. Cheers from Texas!!!
Thanks! This was incredibly helpful.
I followed this video almost word for word and it worked wonderfully. I'd owned a Genesis 3 burner for a few years and never properly deep cleaned it. A few weeks ago, most of the bottom caught fire while I was grilling chicken (it was cajun blackened, so nobody was the wiser :-/ ).
I removed everything and was shocked to see how much crude was under the burners and grates.
The steps in this video brought it almost back to new. If I'd cleaned it annually like I was supposed to, it probably would have been good as new. I esp liked the use of a non chemical cleaning solution. I'm not that worried about the chemicals...fire kills everything, but it's a good consideration, esp when the solution in the video worked as well as it did.
Great video.
Awesome. Glad I could help
I have the same Weber. I was happy I picked it up years ago before they changed the design. Nice tutorial my man.
Thanks. I agree I don’t like the open bottom design on the new ones. I like doors to hide the tank. Cleaner look.
Nice work. Thanks for sharing.
My son Bryan introduced me to your BBQ site. Good tips . You have me thinking of getting a smoker.
Ciro Sinagra Mr. Sinagra!!! Your son Bryan is a very smart man. Let me know if your going to get a smoker. I’ll talk you through it.
Thanks for posting. Very informative video. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
This is an awesome vid. Very quick, to the point! Clear and easy to understand as well. Love the homemade feel of the video, feels more real unlike all the try hards out on CZcams these days haha. Thanks!
Thanks. If you watch any of my videos, one thing should be obvious. I don’t try all that hard. Thanks for watching
Thanks Dave! I’m getting ready to clean my grill for the first time 😅
Awesome. I really need to do mine as well
We were just gifted my moms 3 yr old Weber Genesis II 310- gonna try this this weekend to get it dialed in and clean
Nice. Since I’ve made this video I’ve stopped using vinegar and baking soda, which is basically just weak vinegar. I use simple green now. Or any environmentally friendly food safe grease cleaner.
Great video, all the info I needed, not too long of a vid and you have a good pace and amusing commentary. Thanks!
Thank you for the feedback. I appreciate it.
You are an amazing phenomenal teacher and your guidelines were spot on. After 3+ years of neglect looking amazing🌞. Thank youuuu very much 🤗🤲🙏
You’re welcome. And I truly appreciate the feedback.
Really good advice, always feel I had to do a deep clean to remove cooking matter, so advice really useful.
Wow! Great video. First time cleaned my grill like that. Looks and feel new again.
Awesome. Glad I could help. I was just using that grill this weekend and it’s in desperate need of a cleaning.
You make the best BBQ videos on CZcams
Thank you. I’m pretty sure that’s not true, but I appreciate it nonetheless the less.
This is what I use to clean my Weber gas grill. Spray the outside of your grill, the stainless and porcelain, with easy off oven cleaner wipe with wet damp sponge and dry with paper towel. Then spray with stainless steel cleaner and polish with dry cotton towel. Comes out looking brand new.
Just a suggestion.
Very helpful and informative. Thank you!!
Awesome video thank you
Awesome video Dave. Very informative and detailed! I had a gas grill a long long time ago lol but what’s great about this video is that you can apply the some of the same principles to a stick burner or a pellet grill. Great job and keepbbqing
Smokin’ Jazz Bbq thanks I appreciated it.
Thank you Dave! I’m going to show my husband this video and we’ll get the bbq cleaned up and running in no time 😊
Great video on cleaning the grill. thanks
Thanks, man. I've owned grills for many, many years. And I've never done anything like this. Thank you for showing me how.
You are welcome. I need to get out there and clean mine again.
Dave! This is a great video! Thank you for posting!
Dave - love your work
Great advice. Thanks!
Great tips on cleaning the BBQ! Thanks for sharing Dave🇨🇦❤️
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching
Thank you Dave
I had read the cleaning instructions that came with the grill and I was like there has to be something to help me clean this grill that is safe and won't damage it besides just using the metal brushes.
I had already thought about using vinegar and was tempted to mix it with peroxide as it's a great cleaning agent mixed in equal parts. I used your cleaning mix instead and was surprised to see how really well it worked. It took me 7 hours to clean my grill from top to bottom it had not been deep cleaned since we started using it in 2010. I started complaining to my mother we were going to have a fire if we didn't clean it and then she said well I have the Weber Manual if you want to read it and tackle the job. Jeez that would have helped so many years ago and I would not have waited that long to deep clean it if it were mine. Needless to say my father has been gone from this world since 2007 and I'm divorced so we have no men in our life to help us so it's all up to me to take care of all the Man chores for both of us as my Mom is 74 and is no longer able.
simply use Dawn Dishwashing soap - works great -
TRY EARTH BRITE FRENCH CLAY... HSN. $20 or so...you will be amazed at how many uses it has...you don't need a man! 😊
@Koze -use a lot of paper towels- maybe a whole roll.
Just read learn and practice! God bless you
Thanks you sir. Watching this tutorial has made my clean up job easier.
Glad I could help
Fantastic, thanks Dave!
I like the way you clean it, using no chemical. My grill needs cleaning, I will do the same, thanks for the cleaning tips🙂
Thank you, I appreciate it
Very good guide on cleaning this. 🌟
Thank u for that and I love the natural cleaning solution!!
You’re welcome.
fantastic, thank you, and thanks for not pushing to have everything cleaned to showroom brand new!
No problem!
This is great! Very imformative. Thank you so much!
Dave, nice video. I've got same exact model (Special Edition). Time to get mine done. BTW - cool backyard as well.
PackFan2323 thanks my backyard is a ton of work. I have a love hate relationship with it Just cleaned the grill this past weekend. Have fun.
Great video, Dave! Thank you! First time cleaning my first grill! This was really helpful.
That Gurl glad I could be of help.
Thanks Dave. Great video. This is my pandemic project for this weekend!! God bless.....
David Culberson no problem. Glad I could help. I feel like I used to work with a Dave Culberson at compuserve/AOL in Columbus.
Dave's Ohio BBQ & More Wasn’t this one but.....thx for the videos!!
Nice work
My pit is close to yours, just no sear option, thanks for the video! Good info!
Awesome tips - thanks!
Awesome video.
Thank you. I was intimidated by thought of deep cleaning my grill. I even bought replacement parts to avoid it. Your clip has inspired me to clean my old parts and save my new parts for later down the road. Great tips, explanations on why you do what you do and lastly the recipe for the environmentally safe cleaner. You rock!
Jo Ellen Polite thanks for watching. I appreciate it. Now go clean your grill!!! 😃
Super job man.
Good advise, NO chemicals. Good tip only with vinegar.
This video is gold. Thank you very much!
Thank you for the feedback, and thanks for watching
Great job …. That’s pretty much the same way I do my Weber !!🇨🇦
Watched you do it then cleaned mine this morning! Thanks for your video
Awesome. Glad I could help
