It sure looks like rust. What else could it be with that color?

Hello, When removing the flavorizing bars at some point, I scratched the inside of the firebox. The scratch is about an inch long, and has developed rust. What's the best way to deal with this? Thank you, John

Thanks for the replies. This is not a new problem. It was like this from day one. I love the grill. It would just be good to know whether there is a way to fix this.

Here are some images:

I will. What am I looking for?

So all the way in the back against the back wall it isn't hotter at all? How can that be given that there is a horizontal flame back there? It is a bit windy here typically, but where the wind is coming from would not make the back hotter. It would make the front hotter perhaps... Could there...

My Spirit 2-burner is hottest in the back and gets progressively cooler towards the front. It is hottest where the bar connects the two burners, against the back wall. I constantly need to shift things around. Is this a known issue? Any suggestions? Thank you.

The IT did fall below 140. I put it back in the oven at 225F an hour ago. IT is currently 100F. I am not sure whether to keep it at 225F or increase to 325F as Charles suggested above. I am concerned about it drying out. Bill, what's the concern with falling below 140F?

No worries. I actually love cast iron and am accustomed to dealing with rust. I just wanted to make sure I didn't need to do anything special in this case.

It's my first Weber, and my first cast iron grates, so it was just a question. I have a lot of cast iron cookware and know how it behaves.

Should I spray all over the grates or just the rusty spots? Do I need to remove the rust from the grates somehow first?

Thanks for the info. Here are some photos. What should I oil it with? At this point, I just let the grill run on high for about 15-20 minutes to burn off some of the treatment.

I purchased a Spirit E-210 on Craiglist. It was a year old but had never been used. It still had the stickers on. It was kept outside, with a cover on. Everything looks good. There are a few rusty spots where the grates meet the body and on the bottom of the grates, in the same spots. I...
