    Tailgating ideas with Q100

    Something completely different to try. Have a look at Jamie Purviance's Yakiniku. It is in Weber Nation www.webernation.com Grilling classes - video library about halfway down. Instead of using a kettle do it on the Q120. I have done this dish several times when demonstrating with the Q300. I...

    Burner Tube Maintenance

    I have had my Q220 for 5 years. The only thing that I do to my burner is to give it a brush with my weber triangular brass brush once in a while. I have had no issues with clogged holes during that time. My Q220 is used at least twice a week. Cheers

    James I always recommend that you season the CI grills whether porcelain coated or not. It certainly doesn't hurt them and any weak porcelain covered areas will be protected. Cheers

    Grease fire in my Q200

    Thoughts/ Yep. It is not the fact that the slope is wrong, it's the fact that you have not been carrying out the recommended maintenance. What happens is that there is a build up of carbon from fat etc that has burnt from the intense heat and this traps more fat which burns and carbonizes and...

    How to light the Q grill

    Bob Waiting a minute has nothing to do with the grill. This is the recommended procedure for use with gas regulators so they don't trip the internal regulator shutoff valve. You should also open the valve slowly. Most of us just turn on the bottle with the BBQ controls off and open the BBQ...

    Fish Fry Failure on the Q

    Heres my thinking on this subject for what it is worth as I don't "Fry" fish, I grill them. It takes about 12 - 15 minutes to get my Q220 bouncing over 550 F. If I was to add a grddle the preheat time will increase to about 15 - 20 minutes If I was to add oil to the CI pan then the time would...

    Scandalous Controversy

    Good post Doug and good explanation of the method in which you did it. If you like it that way keep doing it, you never know you might get some converts. One of the things about smoking on a BBQ is that the food takes on the smoke taste and negates the difference between charcoal/briquettes and...

    The ones in Australia replace one side of the grill. I don't use a griddle I use a BBQ sheet if I need to use something. Easy to clean up and allows you to place it where ever you like. Still get great grill marks especiually on salmon. Available from Amazon Vic Cherikoff BBQ Grill Sheet As for...

    Performance

    What George and pat said and more. The Q220 is world class. I use mine mostly on week nights and have done for the last 5 years I am guessing that I have had over 500 cooks on it and it is still going strong. Here is a photo of a couple of porterhouse steaks that I did on it on Tuesday Night...

    Cleaning kettles: Anyone use CLR?

    I have river pebbles ontop of my garden and have an area where I use for such type cleaning. It is not as thouigh it is used on a continual basis and it does break down over time. If you are worried about polluting the area. Dig a hole and fill it with a mixture of vegetable matter/grass...

    Ever heard of the Weber 22.5" Compact Kettle

    Actually Carl They are not used for grilling but for roasting the pork/turkey or both indirectly. Roast pork leg or loin with the skin (crackling) on cooked in the kettle for about 3 - 3 1/2 hours is the best in the world and is one of the main dishes in our Christmas Dinner. Turkey although...

    Cleaning kettles: Anyone use CLR?

    Like George I use oven cleaner then wash with soapy water and rinse with clean water - this method works well I just did my kettles and performer this way last weekend. Cheers

    gas grill on a covered deck...clearance question

    The good thing about rain is that it is generally accompanied by a breeze (or a gale) I have both Poly Carbonate and metal over my Outdoor Decking. I situate the genesis/performer/Q220 so that it/they are on the opposite end to the prevailing wind and cfook away. The breeze blows away the...

    Smoking on a Genesis?

    Like mike says. Foil packet with holes You can use wood pellets in the foil pouch. the best position is over the interconnect tube on the flavouriser bars ensuring that it is also over the burner that is on. Situate the Genesis so that the LH side is into the prevailing breeze and the hood is...

    Pizza Stone Inserts

    Did anyone notice the Pizza Stone inserts in the "Kettle + Pizza Stone thread in the grilling section. Pizza Stone Inserts What a fantastic idea. It sorta makes me want to buy one of those cast iron grills that you can change the quarter sections around in. Cheers

    Ever heard of the Weber 22.5" Compact Kettle

    The compact kettle is made to a price point and is, in my opinion not that good. The fire is as Rolf points out closer to the grill and reduces the useable area for indirect and puts the coals too close for direct. Having said that a lot of people use the compact kettle with good results. Most...

    Indirect food in the front or back of the grill?

    Dave Welcome back. The aluminium will work fine, my only concern was over time, with the heat, the strips will sag, however, as it is so cheap, cutting a few additional lengths and keeping them on hand will fix any potential problem. Lets face it you don't use this configuration all the time. I...

    Saturday night chicken breasts

    Jay I understand what you are saying about charcoal being better than gas, In a blind tasting test that I did some time ago the charcoal grilled meat was prefered over the gas, however some did select the gas grilled. I did another blind taste teste on some chicken that had been rubbed with a...
