I just realized that I'm getting old when I found myself watching a video of a guy washing a grill. 🤣

[@JPBBQ]

Welcome to the club, lol. Thanks for watching.

[@abrahamo8934]

Lmao yeah 🤣 it needed some build up to get to the repair

[@Buford_T_Justice1]

Every time a Weber Kettle gets refurbished an angel gets it’s BBQ wings. Great job dude!

[@susanw179]

I'm a 65-year-old female with a 26" Weber Kettle and I just replaced the One Touch Cleaning System today all by myself. If you think it's hard on a 22" Weber, try it on a 26" Weber! *LOL* This took some ingenuity, but what I did was run string through the bottom of the handle holes of the blade system and then dropped the string through the bottom of the kettle to hold the blade system in place at the bottom of the kettle when I flipped the grill over to install the washer and handle to the underside of the kettle. This worked great! Thank you for the tip on the Simple Green Grill Cleaner plus SOS pads. This worked so much better than products I have tried before.

[@JPBBQ]

That is too Cool, I appreciate you watching and commenting Susan. And you are so welcome glad I could help. Thanks again. 😎

[@adoboy60]

Thanks for this great video. Much easier than the paper instructions from Weber. It worked-even that tricky keyway which I would never have figured out on my own. Saved me $550.

[@jny78]

Had mine for about 8 years. As long as you cover it and clean it regularly, it will last years. Love Weber’s

[@JPBBQ]

Appreciate you watching and commenting. They are absolutely amazing grills. Thanks for sharing.

[@bkaley8974]

It's only a simple grill with the same design it's had for decades. You shouldn't need to "clean" a grill other than removing ash.

[@tonyg.3696]

Thank you for your detailed video. Same thing happened to me, I noticed I couldnt shut off the air so the coals would keep burning even with the lid vent closed. My Weber is about 5 yrs old.

[@JPBBQ]

You are very welcome. Glad you liked the video and thanks for watching and commenting.

[@giow2331]

Bought a kettle from Facebook marketplace and the cleaner was rusted so bad but your video helped me replace it, thank you 🙏🙏🔥

[@Chuck-1121]

I think you're meaning Aftermarket Parts, OEM is Original Equipment Manufacture. Thanks for showing the cleaning and repair.

[@JPBBQ]

You are correct, thats what I meant. thanks for watching

[@carterscustomrods]

My original kettle is 30+ years old, and in perfect condition (other than a gazillion fine scratches). I do a thorough clean every 20 smokings, or every 30-40 grillings. However, the newer kettles don't seem to last as long. They're lighter in weight, and have a thinner coating. But, they should last a decade still as long as they're cleaned, and protected from the elements. Once a year, I like to do a 10:1 of peanut oil, and food grade silicone grease on the inside/outside of the body. I start with about a teaspoon of the food grade silicone in an automatic mixer. Then I slowly add a warmed (135f-145f) peanut oil ,a 1/4 cup at a time, every 60 seconds. It'll have a total of 1-¾ cups peanut oil to the teaspoon if Food grade silicone. Just make sure you don't add too much h of the silicone, or it will end up trapping ash/debris in it. Once I coat the inside of the grill (a paintbrush is adequate) I then do the outside. Then, I turn on the propane starter, or I will put a propane torch head up, into the grill, and run it on high about an hour. Hopefully you get it to 350f. Then I wipe down inside and outside, looking for any oil that's pooled, or not bonded, and voila.... i put it back together. I'm in hot, humid, salty-aired environment of Florida. I cover my grills with appropriate covers, and leave them outside year round... but I use them about 4+ times a week. So if you're not using it as much, it'll last wayyy longer. 😀

[@josephkee1298]

Great video thank you I’m gunna try the simple green was gunna use oven cleaner But gunna use the simple green 👍👍

[@larrysmith1873]

This is what I needed to know. I have the same exact same grill as you demonstrated on. Thanks for the demo, I really appreciated it.

[@chillz0052]

Dang, that simple green worked like a charm

[@JPBBQ]

Appreciate that Glenn. Glad you liked it. Simple green is good stuff

[@bobbyk2126]

Thanks for this good tutorials! I'm restoring 2 Weber kettles this weekend and will use the Sime Green as well. Dang, have to go get some SoS pads...bringing back childhood memories on products! Thank you sir!

[@JPBBQ]

Glad you liked the video. I used to use sos pads to clean my bike rims back in the day. It would leave them so shiny. Appreciate the compliment.

[@indylive4926]

Great video! I have 3 22" kettles including my 1st which Ive had since 2006

[@JPBBQ]

Thanks for the compliment, very much appreciated. They are awesome grills and smokers. Thanks again.

[@indylive4926]

@@JPBBQ I was told that the grill cleaner from Samsclub works great also. I'm about to try it some weekend

[@90RangerXLT]

You dont need to replace the one step kit when that happens. It happens because grit builds up underneath and bends the blades. Stick some 2 inch wood shims on each of the blade, as close to center as you can, and bend the blade down. Then pull the shims out, and the blade will slap tight. Then do the next blade etc.

[@JPBBQ]

I did see someone do a video on that and yes looks like it works great. Appreciate you sharing and thanks for watching.

[@BbqMikeG]

Spray some Pam on the cooking grate as the last step of cleaning to help the rust brush off more. Great video!

[@Brianmlife]

I will have to try out that simple green stuff on my kettle grill manufactured in 1975 or 1976. I had to make a new handle for it. she will be good to go soon.

[@JPBBQ]

Thanks Brian, appreciate you watching and commenting.

[@veritas4685]

Thanks - I think I will be cleaning mine soon.

[@JPBBQ]

You are very welcome. Appreciate you watching and commenting.

[@JamesEndo1]

Great maintenance video! Your Weber looks great.

[@CloudznSmoke]

Thanks for sharing 👍

[@patmac1134]

JP, great video. I subscribed & gave a thumbs up

[@terrytysinger6022]

Nice tips; thanks. You may want to consider a SnS stainless steel grill grate, though. They are well made.

[@alzawalich9829]

Great how to video, I bet you wash away some good flavors

[@JPBBQ]

Hey there AL. Appreciate the comment brother, I know what you mean, If it was for that part that got damaged I would of just left it alone thanks again.

[@baronvonwhat]

JP. thanks for the videos I Finally did this today bought this weber 22 kettle in 2018. Time change out the one Touch and clean this built up dusty, moldy, dusty, pollenated, greasy , well used Weber Grill. thanks Juan. great tips

[@JPBBQ]

No problem, you are very welcome. Thank you for watching and commenting.

[@SNeal5966]

I have had my kettle for a little over a year. I just did my first cleaning yesterday like that only I tried the CitruSafe cleaner. I think I may try the simple green next time, or possibly the easy off that is marketed for grills....yours came out a tad cleaner. I had a bend in one of my blades on the one touch too but I was able to take mine apart bend it back down and reassemble good as new. Nice job!

[@JPBBQ]

thanks for watching SNeal5966. That Simple Green is no joke. It works good on a lot of things. The Easy Off for grills is a good product as well. thanks again for watching and commenting.

[@SNeal5966]

@@JPBBQ the Citrusafe did a decent job don't want to diss it too much....but I deff am going to try the simple green next time for sure

[@kingneptune8120]

I scrap the inside of my with a wood shim doing so keeps the grease build up from having the cleaning system from bending up.

[@JPBBQ]

Appreciate the tip Kenneth. thanks for watching

[@bluelizard1969]

Soak your grill grates in white vinegar, baking soda, and blue dawn dish detergent.

[@KatMa664]

Soak your grate and vinegar. After the rust comes off coat with spray oil.

[@lumber-jackha5123]

I noticed that your charcoal bin was melted, How did hat happen?

[@schutzhund3933]

My 30 yo one touch has a 10” flat brace attached to the center nut that the ash basket attaches to. Doesn’t attach to the legs! No parts! Might have to get a new ash catcher if it will fit.

[@JPBBQ]

Wow, your Weber is 30 years old. Goes to show these little bad boys are made to last. Thanks for sharing. I think you can get parts for it as long as the style model did not change. good luck.👍

[@stanherbert3772]

[@JPBBQ]

Thanks Stan. Appreciate you watching

[@EntropyGuardian]

I buy a new grate every year. Just not worth it for me lol

[@JPBBQ]

Nothing wrong with that, appreciate you watching

[@ilbaffonero]

You must have had a pretty intense cook to melt your charcoal bin.

[@JPBBQ]

It can get pretty hot. Appreciate you watching and commenting.

[@richardwalley2862]

Weber would have sent you one for free

[@JPBBQ]

Good to know. Appreciate you watching.

[@ShopperPlug]

13:10 - Oh god... it's just a simple piece of metal lol it really makes no difference if it's counterfeit... bare metal is same as bare metal.

[@JPBBQ]

Appreciate you commenting Max. It may be just a piece of metal, but where that metal came from and how it was manufactured makes a difference. There is also a business threat of counterfeit products, as it results in a loss of revenue for the brand that is being copied. Thanks again for watching.
