Good stuff Ronnie! I never thought to vacuum out my grill but that was an extremely helpful tip that I will be sure to use! Can’t wait to see you fire that baby back up!!
I honestly can't believe I let it get that bad. I didn't know it was that bad till I took those nasty grates off. I will never buy another grill with cast iron or porcelain coasted grates. Thanks so much buddy.
Nice upgrade Ronnie. I haven't even opened my gas grill in 6 months, to many other cookers. This makes me what to look at my gas grill tomorrow.
I Know it. It is hard to figure out what to use when you have so many haha. These grates are still working "Grate" haha. See what I did there?
Those look like some really nice grill grates Ronnie, definitely an upgrade for the grill!! Take care over there sir!! Dan
Thanks Dan. So far I’m loving them and really wish I would have done this before now! Thanks buddy.
great upgrade! I need to do the same thing! Thanks for sharing.
Danny & Lynn
So far they have been great! I’m so glad I did this and wish I had a few years back. Thanks 🙏
Yup. 2 years into my Broil King Baron, a big chunk of rusted cast iron grill came up with my perfectly prepared, medium rare, thick cut, NY Strip. Time to get those Stainless Steel ones. Thanks !! Also, thanks for the Amazon link. You saved me $20 versus another Amazon replacement grill.
I was really disappointed in the original grate and I’m still super happy with the stainless one I bought. They are so much cheaper than the ones fro
Broil King and others I found. These are almost as think too. Thanks for your comment.
@@SouthernFoodJunkie Just received from Amazon. Baking them in now. Perfect fit. Thanks again.
@@pgrutube I hope you enjoy them as much as I’ve had! Thanks again.
This is awesome, well done and great presentation. My monthly chore is grill maintenance for Feb!
Hey thanks so much. I really appreciate that. I need to start doing maintenance more often. Did you see how nasty it was? I think I am going to spray it down with some simply green and degrease it before long.
@@SouthernFoodJunkie I did baking soda on mine, try without chemical first. On the big smoker we just pressure wash and air dry in the Florida sun we also burn out with 3 bags of charcoal and we are ready to go next big cook out.
Mins was disgusting too and I missed an entire tray inside the little Weber.
I did use the Weber spray and won’t use it again I ended up using baking soda. Have a good week friend
@@TraywickMade I will try that first. Will it not scratch my stainless surface areas? Simple Green is supposed to be environmentally safe and biodegradable according to their company. To be honest I have never researched it to find out if that is a true statement though.
@@TraywickMade I got ya. Thanks and you too!
Thanks for sharing bud!
You are welcome 🙏
Great this is awesome tips
Thanks so much!
This was a grate tutorial...
Hey I appreciate that. Thanks.
Ha, love it.
@@TraywickMade Thanks so much!
#1 underrated comment.
I know right??? 🤪🤣
Good idea.
Thanks 🙏
I have the exact same situation going on with my Baron 320. Those cast iron grates started rusting like 2 months after I got it. I complained to Broil King and they did nothing. That BBQ now comes with stainless steel grates instead of cast iron so it's obvious they had a problem but did nothing to help customers that purchased the prior gen that had the cast iron grates.
Yeah I agree! I reached out too. I’m still using mine and love these stainless steel ones. I’ve had this grill 10 years now.
Thank you for make the video..
You are welcome. I hope it helps you out. I still love my grill grates I bought!
Yeah man those grates never seem to last for me either, I’m waiting until I get a house to go buy a new grill they are crazy expensive lol.. might just build an outdoor cooking area out of blocks instead.
Yeah you got that right. At least now I might can squeeze another 6 years out of this one! The grill itself is very sturdy and has held up. But those grates suck. It’s worth 50 bucks for new ones like this. The new grates are very awesome so far!
I treat them like a cast iron skillet. I clean my grill about one a month and brush oil on them. Then I fire up the grill and put it on high for about 15 minutes to cook on the oil. I have the same grates from 17 years ago! Not cleaning your grill up will cause moisture to build-up and then it will rust. Honestly go check out any Grill forum and the key is keeping it clean!
That is 100% correct! Plus Teese were porcelain coated and I used a wire brush back when and that made the coating come off. I did oil these and bake them every few months as well. It was always kept with a cover on it. When we moved in a temporary home while building our house, it had to set in the yard with the cover on it and when I go to use it, it would have lots of moisture trapped under the cover. That most likely what did it. Thanks for your comment. It adds some great points!
Hey Ronnie. I sure miss doing some smoking on the smoker. Did y’all have a good Christmas and New Year? Sorry I haven’t spoken with ya in a while. Life keeps everyone busy. This covid is gonna drive me crazy. I can say without a doubt I am growing closer with God daily. Back strong in my word and prayer. Just having to learn that the things that happen are Gods will and that’s the perfect will. I will keep you and your family in prayer and hope to speak with you soon. God Bless my friend.
Hey Ashley, good to hear from you buddy. Yeah I really want to get me a pellet smoker soon. Man that is good you are back growing closer to God. That is what it is all about. It is a process for everyone, we all go through spells. The main thing is that you serve Him and know Him. Its about a relationship with Him. Yes please keep us in your prayers man. Things are hetic for sure. I don't have it all together either. We all struggle with things. I will keep you in my prayers too. God is good! Later man.
What I generally do is to put on my old telephone man tool belt and white hardhat and drive around town looking for someone who owns the same grill as me. When I walk behind the houses or Apt. buildings, I don't look suspicious. I simply find some grates that are in better shape than mine and I swap them out. Doesn't cost me a dime. It's best to do this in the city. Country folk usually have dogs.
Hahah man you are crazy. I wouldn't expect anything less than this! Yeah don't come snooping in my yard. My cameras will alert me and I will have a gun ready! haha. Thanks AS!
@@SouthernFoodJunkie Pro Tip: Stay in the city to use my method.
Best comment EVER
Lol yeah he is a funny guy. Go check his channel out, he is a good friend of mine!
where is the link or what are they called on amazon
The link should be in the description unless I forgot it. I’ll double check it and if not add it. Thanks 🙏
Yes all the links are in the description box fir you to use!
No, I do not have rusty grill grates, I try to clean my completely spotless every single time I use it, whether charcoal or gas. (I never thought about stainless steel). I also never leave my grills set out in the rain. Steel rusts 10 times faster or more when it's wet. I made a barrel stove for the shed out of a 55 gallon drum, it never gets wet in the shed. Still fine after maybe 30 years. The 55 gallon drum outside "burn barrel" has to be replaced maybe every 3 months.
Yeah these never stayed out in the rain either. Always had a cover on it when it was on my back porch. Now it is under a cover so no cover on it now. This grill is too heavy for me to pick up and move into a building and such. I also oiled the grates everytime before and after use. Just a process of heating and cooling that causes them to rust bring outside in the humid south. This grill is about 6 or 7 years old. I'll never have to worry about the grates rusting anymore with stainless steel though.
I usually get about 2 years out of my burn barrels outside. I actually got one I now that is starting to rust through that I got to replace.
Thanks for stopping by buddy.
@@SouthernFoodJunkie I think you have solved the grate problem, but the burners may still rust. I've seen many grills that were ruined by rusted away burners. The key is to keep it as dry as possible. Both of my grills are little and light, I move them into the garage after using, (one rolls on wheels).
At the mill where my dad worked, they gave away 55 gallon drums, wanted the workers to take them. Now the mill is closed, gotta pay like 20 bucks every time a burn barrels rusts away.
@@clintonearlwalker Yeah I got to find me a new burn barrel guy too lol. They are usually 10-20 bucks around here too. Thanks 🙏
Have these rusted at all yet?
Nope. They still doing great and I’m happy with the purchase!
this link does not work anymore, they might be sold out. 😢
Hey Matthew, I just checked them and all the links worked for me. Not sure what went wrong. Maybe try it again and let me know.
You didn’t fix the grates. You replaced them witch is ok I guess. But why label the video “let’s talk about how I fixed the grill grates” wasted 3:57 minutes of my life!!!? Thanks keep up the good work. 🤣😡
I’m sorry you felt this way. To me replacing the grates is fix. I appreciate you taking the time to watch either way. I know not everyone will like my videos and I’m ok with that. Thanks for your comment in letting me know though. I will try to find a better way to name videos in the future. Have a good one!
i feel like grill grates just don't last very long for how expensive they are.
You are right. These were so much cheaper than the ones the manufacture offered too. They seemed pretty heavy bilt and I hope they last for a while. This grill is about 6 or 7 years old already. Hopefully it will last another 6 before having to get a new one. Although I do go my eye on a pellet grill lol.
@@SouthernFoodJunkie 6-7 year old grill is pretty good for a standard grill too! Yea, those grates were priced pretty well compared to others i have seen in the past.
@@southerncharlesfamily6089 I think so too. These one has all stainless steel parts in the inside except the grates. I would say this one is almost or close to being on the same scale as a weber. They do last a good bit longer than your standard charbroil or what not. But had I kept the inside washed and cleaned more often would have been better lol.
@@SouthernFoodJunkie gotchya!
Hey you know me
I do know a Joesph Steel.
Yes it me
Joesph Steel?
@@IBeatYou-tw4wj Steele lol 😆 Sorry just spelled it wrong.
Lol
You didn't fix shit. You replaced.
To me, it fixed my problem which was rusty grill grates. Easy fix! Thanks buddy for your kind words! 🙏
