  • This video is about my easy way to clean a Weber kettle. I'm going to show you the best way because it's the easiest and you'll have more time for other important things in your life, like cooking BBQ.
    I've been asked by a lot of people how to clean their Weber grill. I'm not going to lie, it's the worst part about owning one.
    But here is an easy way that you can do it after each use and every few months just to keep your Weber in good shape.

    Materials Needed:
    0000 grade steel wool
    Course steel scourer
    A bucket
    Dishwashing liquid
    Kincrome razor blade scraper
    Spare razor blades
    Paper towel
    A couple of old towels
    Gloves
    Hydration:
    2 x beers
    Whether it be grilling, smoking, low n slow, how to videos or just your basics of BBQ, my aim is to help you along your BBQ journey. So make sure you have hit the subscribe and bell buttons, that way you can be reminded every time I upload new videos.
    With 30 years of experience cooking on Weber grills, you are getting my knowledge compacted into small weekly videos. These techniques work and I know this, as it is how I have been cooking on these BBQ’s for three decades.
    There is so much wrong information out there and my aim with all of my videos is to help you Master Your Grill by sharing my knowledge and experience and passing on actual practices that are tried and tested, not just copied.
    If you are interested in working with me or getting some social media videos or photography done, don't hesitate in contacting me. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This is equally as important - if not more - than your cooking vids. I believe in a clean BBQ and these are some great steps to keep it ship shape! I have done most of what you said in this video by piecing the info together from other sources (prior to you putting this vid up), but this is a great summary; best I've seen so far actually. Keep up the awesome work!

    Pretty much exactly how I clean mine. I am a bit pedantic and usually clean if after every 1 to 2 cooks. For a good clean of the grill, I soak it overnight in a tub of hot water and nappysan. Comes up spotless. Also works great for oven grills.

    • @SchueysBBQ
      @SchueysBBQ  Před 2 lety +2

      Ha Ha being half a grot and having to lift your game Matthew McKenzie could mean two things. Are you half a grot as you don't clean yours properly and you want too, or because you can't clean yours due to lack of scraper and you figure you may as well just leave it and become a full grot?

      Or, like I said I only have to clean the lid after every 30 to 40 cooks, as it is the bowl that collects all of the fat. That fat will ruin any towels you place into them to protect the lid, as I did in the video. Hence cleaning the bowl first, but thanks for your input @joeespo177
