Your flower gardens are looking great, the fertilizer is working on your lawn...now it’s time to enjoy!

Check out ACE for the Weber grills when you are in the market for a new grill.  These reliable grills are great additions to your outdoor entertaining:  they are built to last, designed to offer you the best in outdoor grilling and are easy to maintain. Once you have your grill, take these simple steps to ensure years of hassle-free performance:

 

Every time you grill:

Clean the cooking grate. Burn off any residue by simply turning the grill on high until the smoke stops, then brush the cooking grates with a wire grill brush.        

 

Clean the warming racks and control panel. A soapy, fine steel wool pad will keep the warming racks clean and free of smoke stains and debris. It will also remove grease spots and stains from the control panel, but take care to not scratch the porcelain.                             

 

Clean the Flavorizer Bars.  You really don't ever need to remove the Flavorizer Bars from your Weber since preheating the grill and burning off residue by turning the grill on "high" is enough to turn any accumulated debris to ashes.

 

Periodically:

Change the Catch Pan Liner. Buy replacement Drip Pans right here at ACE. They are made to fit your catch pan under the bottom tray of your gas Weber. Regularly changing the liner also discourages animals from visiting your grill for a midnight snack.

 

Remove smoke stains from the grill lid and side burner cover. Carefully remove any smoke stains from inside the grill lid with a soapy, fine steel wool pad and a very light touch. For the stainless steel side lid or burner cover, use only warm, soapy water and a sponge or dishcloth-even fine steel wool will scratch it.                                                                                     

Clean the bottom tray. Remove the cool (never hot!) bottom tray from under the grill and place over a trash can. Carefully scrape the inside with a 1" putty knife or other straight, flat object. To deep clean the tray, use warm, soapy water and a soapy, fine steel wool pad, being careful not to scratch the porcelain finish. (NEVER line the bottom tray with foil, as grease can accumulate in the creases in the foil causing a grease fire.)

 

Never:

Wax or paint the lid. The finish on your Weber grill is baked-on porcelain enamel, so you never have to wax or paint it. This finish is glossier and much more durable than paint, and wax will only streak when the grill gets hot. Just wipe the lid down with warm, soapy water when it gets dusty or dirty.

 

NEVER use oven cleaner on your gas grill. Oven cleaner is not friendly to the painted surfaces of your Weber grill; it can remove the paint.
