@alanmochinski 5 лет назад

After lightly coating my grill surfaces with the oil of my choice (peanut oil in this case), do I cook off and season with the hood open,,, or closed? And what temperature am I looking to reach for proper seasoning?

@OutdoorBeards 5 лет назад

Sorry for late response! Cook off should be with the hood open. Otherwise the excess you’re burning off will rise up and burn to the top of the hood. Since your doing this with the hood open and on a high setting you’re not looking for a specific temperature. You’ll know it’s done when you stop see the wisps of smoke.

@mortalstorm 3 года назад

Hmm, the owners manual that came with my grill says to close the lid when initially “burning off” the manufacturing residues from the grill. Was your recommendation to leave the lid open straight from your owners manual? If so, why would it differ between manufacturers?

@OutdoorBeards 3 года назад

They may be wanting it closed to get to a higher temperature. My recommendation comes from not liking the idea of the stuff that is burning off staying inside the grill. I just disagree with what the manufacturers say.

@CottageontheCorner 4 года назад

That was super easy and helpful! What's the best way to get rid of and clean the grill plates after cooking?

@OutdoorBeards 4 года назад

I assume you meant get food off instead of "get rid of". If so you want a wire grill brush for scrubbing the bits of food of the grill plates. periodically, spray a little oil on the plates after cleaning and scrub it in with the wire brush.

@brianwagner9518 3 года назад

@@OutdoorBeards i heard you should use a nylon brush not a wire bush you take off the cermaic coating with a wire brush

@OutdoorBeards 3 года назад

That would depend on the grill. For instance, my grill has cast iron grill plates, though I have had other grills with coated plates in the past. The downside to nylon is that you can’t clean the grill while it’s hot because you will melt the nylon. I don’t like having to wait for the grill to cool down and since I have cast iron it’s not an issue for me.

@Manners03 4 года назад

I know when seasoning cast iron, you should repeat the seasoning proces multiple times to make a better non-stick surface. Should that also apply to a grill?

@MrTreece13 4 года назад

Manners03 I could see that being beneficial for the grill plates. In the case of my grill those are the only parts that are cast iron. Cooking on them will also season them further just like a skillet. Just depends on how much time you want to spend on it.

@danroh001 4 года назад

I followed the instruction exactly told, with canoil oil. After 20 mins of heating, my flavorizer is all brown with burnt oil marks. My grills as well super sticky with dark browns on it. Is this ok? Or should I be replacing these?

@OutdoorBeards 4 года назад

Nothing should be sticky. The hood may brown during this process but you should not have sticky residue left over. Could be the oil you used? Or perhaps too much. This is the first I’ve heard of this problem and I have never had it happen. For the sticky residue, the best I can suggest without having it in front of me is a good scrub with a 000 steel wool combined with a grill cleaner.

@BradfordRMcKnight 4 года назад

Yes this happens when you apply to much oil. You want a VERY thin coat.

@jameskininmonth3602 9 месяцев назад

for the second burn (with canola oil), is it with the lid down or up? 😅

@OutdoorBeards 9 месяцев назад

I did that one with the lid down but you have to keep an eye on the temperature. It can get really hot really fast.

@JC-JC20 3 года назад

Hey man. What if I just let it burned for 30 min. Should I still wash and then oil and burn again??

You could probably skip the wash but you never want to skip the oil. It’s like a cast iron skillet. Wash rarely, oil frequently.

@TriMeX1987 2 года назад

One question. Pam leaves sticky residu on non stick pans. (Because of the quick cooldown?) Im leaning more towards avocado oil for seasoning my grill now? I allready have pam but after baking an egg i.e. what is the best way to clean the pan for the residu? I dont want to use bakingsoda/soap mix cause baking soda is harder on the pans. Same goes for my new grill. Any tips are welcome. Untill then I will either use avocado oil or wait with seasoning the grill.

@OutdoorBeards 2 года назад

Avocado oil is great choice, it has a higher smoking point. The Pam I used was a canola oil version which also has a higher smoking point but in the can form it’s not as good as if it came from a bottle.

@TriMeX1987 2 года назад

@@OutdoorBeards thnx for the quick respond 👍💪

@TriMeX1987 2 года назад

Gues I should have let it burn the initial 20min closed like it states in the manual. Then after.. rub it in and don't go higher then 500. (Avocado oil) Feel like I messed up with closing it and letting it rise to 600 once with oil on there. Probly burnt my oil on the grates? Any recommendation in how to clean em off and season them again? This time open and not letting them get higher then 500?

@OutdoorBeards 2 года назад

Wire brush, medium firmness, and some elbow grease. I sways leave the grill open when I do this so it doesn’t get so hot. Not sure what you were using to apply your oil but it sounds like you may have had too much. You may not need to clean it off, might add some good flavor to your means. Just a thought but without seeing it I can only guess

@TriMeX1987 2 года назад

@@OutdoorBeards I f'd up cause I did not heat it up first and the manual said heat up max for 20min with lid closed.

Brother, you are not going to be happy when i say this, but I went from my weber to nexgrill, thought i would be happy with nexgrill, but, my third cook, the grill came up in flames because of the residue grease from my previous cook burgers. I never cleaned my previous weber for 5 years and never had this problem. So, i brought back nexgrill and bought a weber again. I bought a grill because i need a durable, minimal maintenance food cooker, Not a grill i need to clean every time after i cook. have you had this problem with your nexgrill?

I bought this as my first propane grill. It's been a fun, learning experience ru-vid.comUgkxCx5fHawkK9OoV-ojFrY8JLnZrFwAmvUt . I think it's a bit too pricey after looking at other grills, but it wasn't hard to put together and it works really well. I love the side burner option for heating food during a power outage. I have an electric stove and live in the South (Hurricane season), so this was a bonus. I also bought a cover for it and it has protected it nicely (the Char Broil All-Season Grill Cover 3-4 Burner: Large). Every few grill sessions, I take the rack (or grate) and burner covers off and clean them with a non-abrasive scrubby and mild soap. I wipe the excess off of the bottom as well, taking care to avoid the gas and pilot lines.
