Hey I have a gas grill. Will I have to preheat before cooking hotdogs, chicken, and beef (steak and burgers)
Is it important to turn the valve on full after you have lit the grill and closed the lid? Does the 1/4 turn not suffice to cook your food?
Thank you so much!! Simple steps for a future grill master!!!
Put my burners on high lit it with lid open and burnt my hair, eye lashes and hand DUMB put them on low do NOT put on HIGH
Thanks a million for this video. You learn something everyday. Great tips!!
I am a first time gas grill owner, great tips!!!
I fixed up an old grill our neighbor tossed when he moved out. After cleaning with a scraper, hot water+lemon juice, & detergent, it was good to go. Also replaced the cracked O-ring on the regulator. The batteryless ignitor wasn't working well. It would take 3 to 6 presses to light, so I used a longhandled lighter instead. From my experience with batteryless ignitors, they're not very reliable & I prefer the long lighters as they're safer.
BTW, before you light, check for leaks in the piping, tank, & regulator wt soapwater. Especially if you haven't used it for a long time. Any leaks will form growing bubbles.
Hank HIll would've approved
In Step 7 you turned on the other two burners without igniting them before closing the lid? So far you only ignited the middle burner, correct?
Thanks, I am very nervous about lighting my propane grill. I was turning the tank all the way on, so 1/4 turn sounds better. Sometimes my ignition switch doesn't work so I have to use a long handled lighter to light the grill and that is what I really hate. Just found out that there is a battery to work the ignition switch. LOL
Good to know.
Thanks Gary, I didn't know about only turning the gas on 1/4 turn.
Thanks, Gary . . . I almost blew my head off 25 yrs ago trying to light one of these things . . . <lol> No offense, but I'll just stick with charcoal 🙂
All best and thumbs up, Jersey Joe
excellent Gary! there was one step I didn't know, the one where you only turn on the propane tank a quarter turn to light. thank you.
You mean yelling FIRE IN THE HOLE isn't the proper way to light my grill. LOL Great video.
