How to season a new charcoal grill (Weber performer)

alright guys so for my first video I'm gonna break into brand new whoever performer deluxe I just bought it it's never gonna look this nice again I enjoyed it pretty nice girl what I'm gonna do is season it and I've got here some canola oil just a little rag I'm gonna season the great inside of the lid and I might do the inside of the bowl it's not really all that so anyways this is a very nice grill got steel up it's got propane ignition name comes up right here a little rest on there haven't used it yet but I did later the chimney from a performer but it's just the standard one other deluxe still works great all right so first thing and the dip is ragging to some oil on the grief he's just to burn off any metallic flavor that you get sometimes from a new grill [Music] it's brand new I'm not gonna film all this but I'm just gonna keep rubbing some oil in there all right now I'm doing the Oh the inside of the of the lid here brand-new I said it's never gonna look like that again so I'm not gonna record all this cuz I'm just doing it one-handed here but basically I'm just gonna rub all around in here just some canola oil everywhere just a thin layer not to be thick nice and oiled up just stuff performer deluxe has a nice little storage bin over here old rags whatever so I'm gonna be using a Kingsford professional today it's just what I have it doesn't matter what you use I actually prefer regular Kingsford I just I like the way it burns better I think it smells better my my build in my head so I'm just gonna get this chimney going you know I'll be back with chipping a bowl here I'm not using a whole chimney just cuz it's just to season the coil I'm gonna cooking it on it awesome now let's uh let's try out this the ignition system here turn it on and all I'm gonna do is just hit that button right there that's great the chimney over it and I think they say to run it for five minutes but I only run it about a minute let those bottom coals catch fire in the date the chimney starts right up I mean it'll be ready in about 15 minutes so all right just Whitner all right so the flame has been on down there for about two minutes it's smoking a lot you can see it on camera but the coals on the bottom are lit so I'm just gonna go ahead and shut it off this igniter is great I mean I don't even used I used to use cubes on this this one right over here or you know some cotton balls soaked in rubbing alcohol but now that I have this a performer deluxe I mean I was lied about here that's my AC unit is care about the noise [Music] to get me his beard and all some of the guys are going to be talking smack about my beer choice people this just like something depression my kids screaming back home they're all right guess so sorry about the air-conditioner noise here I'm in there's almost about things like 108 today so they see you know non-stop so we're gonna do it with uh with where the baskets we're gonna pick this up baskets keep everything pretty clean everything went had that account belong to that extra lever there [Music] [Music] alright guys so there it is no it's not for for chimney just a little bit just to get it warm and we're going to let it cook on and hopefully get a nice nice coating on there inside of the lid inside of the bowl so now we're gonna put the great back on there and let it go is I'm gonna have the vents completely open the the Weber are deluxe it nice it's got this nice little plastic thing here so you don't burn yourself and I've got the bottom vent open all the way to just right there and now we're just gonna let it go Marya to 280 290 almost 300 this I know these aren't the most accurate but I don't mind using them I made twenty thirty degrees up or down it's not gonna make a huge difference it's just my opinion I don't I don't have any any ropes [Music] but I've never really needed them of drilling almost 20 years and everybody needed him so let's just let it burn up those been burning about 20 minutes and staying around 400 which is pretty good [Music] charcoal that I put in there see the grates getting a little color it's not perfect I mean when you click on it the more season you kids and leave they'll just nickel-plated grates that weapon makes I think they're all stainless steel so they're gonna get ugly we're just fine actually let me show you I'll show you guys the way it's gonna end up eventually this was dirty I mean I clean on before every cook so Allah I'll get it up to temperature get my grill brush screw up all this junk in there this right here is the up the vortex this I mean I did a quick cook to two nights ago some chicken thighs and I you know I had some cold leftover we're just fine you can reuse those but yep this is the way it's gonna end up eventually very pretty foot make some good food have a vortex and I have the baskets that don't have a slow is here might be my next purchase I don't know you guys let me know what you think is it even worth getting a slow in Syria party hugging the baskets and or vortex okay my daughter complaining that her brother's crying go in here and check on them so that's it guys it's gonna let this burn out and and it will be ready with its first hook river performer he looks green very nice [Music] thanks again please hit like and subscribe just just a dad we're doing that stuff dad videos
