Cleaning a Weber Baby Q


I was just wondering how others get the stubborn grease off a Weber baby Q.

I want to give ours a good clean before putting in the car. I have tried a spray and it was useless.

Are you talking of external grease or the grill plate?

About once a year I strip mine and spray de-greaser everywhere, leave for 20 mins or so then hose off.� This will remove any grease but not the stains in the lid for example.

For the grill, after every use I leave it running on high until there is no more smoke, about 10 minutes then, while still hot, I dip the webber wire brush in water and give the grill plate a scrub.� Brings it up spotless.

Cheers Neil

We had a weber2, which became very greasy inside, so much so that it attracted the flies! bleh�Found cleaning instructions in the book..... confuse

Scraping the grease off with a plastic egg-lifter which had just the right curve helped, then I put as big a dish under it as would fit, and poured boiling water over , emptying the dish quite a few times.�More scraping, wiped out with paper towel, more hot water etc until it was shiny again.

I soaked the grill-plate in the laundry tub overnight, lots of cleaning/wiping under the lid needed too.

The grease doesnt burn off this kind of BBQ as it does with others, after a few cleans I went on strike, furious�and�we eventually sold it.smile

Good luck with it Pauline!

The selleys spray is very good . Always clean it after use though . Don't allow a build-up .

if the grill plate it self gets too much build-up , get some molassis , soak it in that for a couple of hours and hose it .

It'll come off .

Thanks for all the suggestions.
Its mainly the fat splatter inside the lid from cooking roasts. It then drips down the hinges when the lid is opened and leaves a mess .
I think I will get some tough wipes to try. I will also try leaving the bbq burning for 10 mins after cooking has finished.
The Baby Q does cook the meat beautifully as well as vegies.
I am yet to perfect pizzas and cakes seem to burn on the bottom even when sitting on a rack.

Pam,

Try placing 4 layers of alfoil under your cake/pizza tray. This will stop the bottom burning. Place foil on top of rack NOT directly onto barby plate.

We only bought ours 2 days ago & the person who sold it to us is one of the original Weber BBQ dealers way back when. She showed me that by putting good thick foil, shiny side down, under the grill plate, cut a hole in centre over where the juices would run into the drip tray, would prevent a lot of the mess around the gas ring.
Cannot say whether it works because BBQ still in box! I intend trying that anyway & because I am ALWAYS the cook I will automatically clean the cooker straight after each use- that is just me I guess. Makes things much easier to clean while still hot. HWMBO does not cook at all. Bugger. LOL
We find that a spray under lid of big Barbie at home with the domestos cleaner from Aldi allows the spray from cooking to wipe off very easily.

Slightly off topic but we are just looking at buying a new "portable" BBQ and were looking at the webber q 100 0r 200. Went to BBQ Galore and saw a Ziegler & Brown which seems a better proposition....only issue is we worry whether we will be able to fit into a locker when we get our van. Was told there can be a few issues cooking with the webbers due to size of cooking area, ability to take roasts due to size of dome and always having to have the lid shut..... Anyone any experience with the Ziegler?

I have had the Q220 at home for 3 years now and cook all meat and roasts in it with never a let down or problem. I recently got the Baby Q100 to take away with me and used that for 2 months with same results. The lid is designed to keep closed when cooking, redjcw. I would never look at any other type of BBQ from now on. Just love My Q.

Topic's always stray a little redjcw but always get back on.

Oh! to get back on topic, I use the Q wire brush and Selley's BBQ Wipes just before cooking on it. Did I say I love My Q?

I have a trick for cleaning any greasy oven racks, baking trays or bbq plates. Run a laundry sink with only hot water. Immerse the trays, racks etc one at a time and as it fills over each layer, sprinkle each layer with a scoop of laundry clothes washing powder as the sink fills. Yes, it uses a bit of powder but it is cheaper than oven cleaner, and less dangerous. Wait overnight or up to 24 hours. Next day pull the racks out, give them a light scrub. All that burnt on grease will soften to a gummy residue which can be pretty much wiped off. I discovered this while working in an environment where we needed to clean ovens but couldn't use caustic cleaners. Pretty much any clothes washing powder works, even the cheap stuff, just sprinkle it on very generously. The enzyme type powders like bio zet work even better.

I can't for the life of me understand why some folks go to extraordinary lengths to clean, what is after all, only an oven.

There are only 2 items needed.

Works for me.

I agree Hylyfe, for a once in a while big clean, but ya gotta be a bit careful where you spray that stuff. It also takes the powdercoat off the lid.

Cheers, John.
