BBQ Grill Cleaning and Related Resources

Here are some grill-related resources and recommendations to enhance your care and grilling experience with your gas grill

Stainless Steel Cleaners

We have tested countless stainless steel cleaners, and these come out on top for ease of application and performance.

• Bayes High-Performance Stainless Steel BBQ Exterior Cleaner and Protectant
• Milsek Stainless Steel Cleaner
• Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleanser - 13oz - Great for removing tarnish and light surface rust.
• Microfiber Cleaning Cloths - Use these with all cleaners, and clean with the grain or brushed finish of the stainless steel.

Grill Brushes

Don't expect a grill brush to last forever - we recommend replacing these every six months or so. Listed below are some Weber-branded grill brushes, but you can search for other tri-twist grill brushes. These bristles do not fall out and are a lot less likely to break off.

• Weber Cold Clean 18" Three-Sided Grill Brush
• Weber Cold Clean 12" Three-Sided Grill Brush

Our suggestion for keeping your grates clean is to turn your burners to high for 10 minutes after grilling, then shut them off. Once the grill is cool, or the next time before you grill, thoroughly brush the grates. Doing this often and not allowing excessive buildup helps. Rather than a wire-bristle brush, you can also use a 5-in-1 scraper, similar to what is listed below, to remove stubborn buildup on the grates.

Grill Covers

We’re often asked about grill covers, and in many cases, the manufacturer’s cover doesn’t meet our customers’ needs or expectations. Here are a few grill cover companies you may find helpful:

• Covers & All
• Cover Store

Resetting A Propane Regulator

We receive calls almost daily about propane grills that won't light or have a low flame. Our first recommendation is to reset the regulator. Here are the instructions for resetting a regulator.

1. Turn off the gas at the propane tank.

2. Disconnect the hose from the propane tank.

3. Open the lid of your BBQ Grill.

4. Turn all the burner valves to high.

5. Wait for 2 minutes.

6. Turn off all the burner valves.

7. Connect the gas line back up to the propane tank.

8. Turn on the propane tank slowly - VERY SLOWLY for 1st turn. 

9. Light the grill using the proper ignition sequence.
