Thanks for the awesome video and advice. Just one thing everyone is aware do not use the wire brush on the grates. The grates have a porcelain coat on it. The wire brush will ruin it and you will have to buy new grates in the future. I called Traeger and they said not to use a wire brush. They recommend a wood type brush or a heavy duty nylon brush like the blue one he uses.
@ChefJasonMorse2 жыл бұрын
Hi Willy, the grill brush im using is a nylon brush with a bit of abrasive in it. works great on the grates and I have been using this plus wire brushes for years without any issues. Good call playing it safe, but those grates are tough!! Chef Jason
@ParadigmUnkn0wn2 жыл бұрын
If a wire brush ruins your grill grates, you have a cheap grill. This is why uncoated cast iron grates are superior.
@thisguy72012 ай бұрын
Or you can just put the grates in the dishwasher and not worry about any brush 😂😂

A 99c addition to your cleaning kit that I find extremely useful. One of Ace’s 1 1/2 inch toss out paint brushes. Cheap hair on almost a paint stir stick handle. I use it to brush all that clingy ash off the sides and down into the bottom of the grill before using the vacuum. Also great in getting ash away from that crevice along the auger cover and bottom of the grill. Unless you brush some really greasy stuff, the 99c brush will last the season. Or longer. Thanks for a great video covering the necessary basics.

Hello from Southern Alberta. We use a really older model by Traeger that we souped up by replacing the temperature control panel with a dial control with about eight or ten settings. It transformed our whole attitude about smokers. W3 are finding we can cook almost anything we want. With increased use comes increased cleaning which I do probably monthly or more if we use it more. I watched the video and am happy to say I have been doing pretty well everything covered and must agree it is prolonging the life of this old Traeger. Thanks for confirming what we are doing.

Tip: buy (or use) a vacuum that you're going to dedicate to grill cleaning. You can never get the smokey/ashy smell out of the hose etc. I tried to use one vac for the grill as well as car care but didn't like that smokey smell. I didn't want to impart any of that smell into the car mats (or garage).. I retired my older car care vacuum and now use it only for the grill and bought a new one for car care. I keep the old one out in my grilling area in a large plastic storage bin (where I keep all my pellets, wood chips, fire starters etc).

Couple of questions: Once we got the message to clean our grill, which we do regularly, we've never been able to get the "clean your grill" message off. Today it told me the firepot won't clean itself (literally), yet my husband always vacuums the firepot. Where is the sensor? How do we get the Ironwood to acknowledge that it's been cleaned? As you said, it's like a vehicle. I feel there must be a switch we're supposed to reset when it's cleaned, like my Road Glide tells me how many miles it's gone between oil changes. 2nd question: What's the honeycomb in the hopper for? It's a pain and makes it hard to empty pellets. Will it hurt anything to take it out? I notice there isn't one in your pellet hopper.

Hi Abby, those warnings are setup in the software. As annoying as they are, its that subtle reminder. :-). The honeycomb in the pellet hopper is to prevent you from accidentally putting your fingers into the auger, its an auger guard. Chef Jason
