I watch this religiously at the start of every grill season. “It’s the most wonderful time of the year”. Thank you!

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!

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.

This is the cleanest grill to undergo a deep cleaning I've ever seen

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.

My grill is really dirty and I just took it apart to clean it. I decided to look on YouTube 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!!!

Dave, Thanks so much for walking me through it all. I believe your guidance will allow me to extend the life of my grill.

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.

These instructions were terrific! I loved your homemade cleaner recipe, too! One of my burners lagged in lighting, and I had ants invading my grill. The cleaning did the trick on both!

Dude, you’re the best grill video maker out there thank you.

[nanettelarochelle]

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. :)

The best gril cleaning video I have ever seen. I only watched 3, but still. Awesome!!!

[triydent]

Thank you the baking soda and vinegar mix saved so much time!! thanks for making this

[kathleenoboyle]

Thank you SO much - I was clueless about how to clean my Weber, which desperately needs to be cleaned. Now I have more excuses.

[ChrisZennNYC]

Appreciate the note not to fuss about getting all back to the original shine, leaving traces is fine. Totally useful—THANKS!

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.

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!!

[tracydee]

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. 😊

Can’t possibly get anymore dad than this guy!

Nice demonstration. I am deep cleaning our 6 year old Weber Q3000 for the first time, this morning. Thanks for the tips. Happy grilling!
