Your weber q is not just a barbecue it as a convection cooking system ideal for camping, picnics or days to the beach
The Weber Q1200/ Weber Baby Q doesn't have any big weaknesses. The Weber Q 1200 heats up fast and grills quickly and evenly. It has porcelain-enameled cast iron cooking grates that are a delight to cook on because they are non-stick, super easy to clean and maintain, and can even go in the dishwasher. The Q 1200 has a sweet, handy thermometer, and its 189 sq in of grilling space holds a surprisingly large amount of food. The Q would do well on your tailgate, on a picnic table, on your apartment patio, or as part of your RV setup.
You do have to carry it in hand, and it is not super light. If you want a grill that is easy to cook on, easy to clean, and simple to light and maintain temperature control with, the Q could be the one for you.
The Weber Baby Q 1200 is a strong contender. Service, sales, and parts are widely available for this popular brand. My experience with the Baby Q 1200 has been 2nd to none..
I've had a number of barbecues over the years and none compare to the excellence of the weber q. If You haven't already you should certainly consider the Weber.
The Q 1200 has one stainless steel burner tube that delivers. It heats up quickly, cooks evenly and leaves beautiful char marks. Cooking time on this Baby Q grill is less than expected for such a small product.
The Q 1200 makes grilling simple and fun. Its push-button electronic ignition starts with just one press of the button every time. It has an infinite control burner valve that allows the flame to be adjusted to clear low, medium and high settings, and the built-in temperature gauge allows for even greater temperature control. This grill does cool down quickly when the lid is open though, so when you're doing your flipping, make it quick. The regulator is attached snugly, and the grease trap is large, easy to take on and off, and comes with a disposable (or reusable) aluminum insert.
At 31 pounds, this is heavy for a tabletop grill. This Weber Baby Q grill has a cast aluminum lid and body which means no rusting or flexing, and a glass-reinforced nylon frame. This grill is sturdy and durable and will likely last a very long time.
This grill is simple to transport at the same time. You can grab it and put it in your trunk and then place it on a picnic bench which is simple enough, but you do have to carry it in hand . It is closer to average weight if you consider all of the contenders , but that's including the rolling, cart style stand-alone versions.
The Weber Q 1200 is built with the regulator positioned directly underneath the right handle. This means that with propane bottle attached you will have wks. if not months of barbequing with your weber baby q.
The Q's side tables fold inside for travel effortlessly, but you will want to make sure that it's completely cool before you do so as they are made out of plastic and could melt. We wish this model came with a latch on the lid. The lid is heavy, so it doesn't do much moving around, but if you're going four-wheeling to get to your BBQ site, consider using a bungee cord.
Cooking Area
This product has 189 square inches of grilling space on top of porcelain-enameled cast iron cooking grates. I love the porcelain-enamel. It's the bomb. It's a breeze to clean with a grill brush or a sponge and soapy water. It can even be put in the dishwasher. It's also dreamy to grill on and wonderfully non-stick. No worrying about non-stick sprays or oiling of cast iron - it will never rust. But don't use a metal or wire brush to clean it or you'll ruin the surface. Use a soft bristle or nylon brush.
The 189 square inches of grill space holds a surprisingly large amount of food. i am able to load it up with enough meat to easily feed 3-4 people.

Thankyou you helped me make my decision. Before I buy we need a better more thoughtful one made.
So giad I could help, whatever bbq accessory it is.
I will always give honest review from my option as a consumer, whether it be a Weber product or other brand.
Glad I could help , thankyou for great comment and support of my channel.
Really Appreciated 👍🔔
I don't like washing if I don't have to!
Another aspect as a con for re -use is;
We travel and camp alot, often remotely, and for camping where possible.
We take our Baby Q with us. If we used a re usable tray we would be wasting our precious water supply, cleaning it.
Disposable allows the residue, in a hot fire, to burn off, for "hygienic"disposal.
...So when you put the remains/ aluminum residue into your trash bag or bin, it won't smell.
The mentioning of locating the drain holes correctly IS very important!
Any fat, not draining away correctly, is more at risk of pooling, overheating, splattering and getting on to the burners!
We all have our likes and dislikes...I like disposable 😁
I can totally agree with what you said , i have the family q and bought this tray , thinking it would make life easier.
To me it just adds to cleaning that i don't want to do.
Plus the slots are missing to locate correctly so as you said i think they should make life easier not worse.
I always find your reviews helpful and open.
Thankyou for sharing as this is a product people need to discuss and there were no real consumer reviews out there.
Thankyou for your feedback and continued support of my channel, like I said I will always give true honest reviews of products I use on both my channels.
I will not be influenced by any company whether I have worked for them or not .
I will share my experience from a consumers point of view.
Thankyou once again for continued support of my channels. 👍🔔
I got mine 6 months ago and I find if to be ok, no issues here.
Thankyou for sharing I love to hear from everyones prospective of how they have found the products they use .
I had to share my review with the pros and cons I found with this product and what they could do to improve it .
Thankyou for you comment and support of my content. 👍🛎
Sounded more like a Cons video than a Pros & Cons Video.
I’ve only had my steel tray for a month and only used it 6 times. Personally never had an issue. $45 from eBay.
I paid $45 for mine this is just my opinion. Like I said they need to address the issues I found when using it .
For now I will stick with what makes my life easier .
I review many product across both my channels and will alway share my honest opinion of these products.
I am not paid to do reviews I just share what I feel is the best review from my own personal experience of using them.
Thankyou for comment and support of my channel. Really appreciate all feed back .
Totally disagree with your review. Ive have three of them for each size. Never had an issues with lining up. Friends have them and we all love them. You make it like lining it up is critical. You put it smack dab in the middle of the plate and its done. The only time it warps is if you put it in by its self with nothing on it. As soon as it cools its straight. I put it in with a roast on it. No problem at all. But you work for Weber so why would you have anything nice to say if it takes money off Weber and saves us money. Put it in the dishwasher with a soak. Comes out perfect.
Thankyou fir sharing your opinion I appreciate all feed back .
I work for Weber occasionally to demonstrate.
I’m just sharing my experience with it as a consumer as how I feel about it
. Like I said in the video it’s up to everyone who watches to decide fir themselves. I give no bias reviews on both my channels.
I’m not going to promote something I’m not happy using .
@@WeberEnthusiast agree and it’s also just my opinion too. But I wouldn’t be without mine. I think they are one of the best purchases. Along with the drip tray they sell for the back of the hinge.
The drip trays I just buy the grill mate ones from coles as if you pull the tray out to slide in they fit perfectly
Sorry, but lining up is critical. That is why Weber design their convection trays the way they do. If not positioned correctly or they accidently slide out of position, or if the Q is not level, Fat drippings will not go between the grill bars, but drip or funnel directly on to the burners....risking a fire or flare up.
@@robyncrighton1255 well I must be lucky after 100 times I’ve used it. But placing smack dab in the middle has never been an issue for me.
Well this is the same reason I do my turkey in a disposable as well come Thanksgiving in the states. Great video and explanation thanks.
Thankyou VRA fam , for support . I hate doing cleaning I don’t have to . 👍👍
Like the disposable one you don’t have to clean it
Me too , I’m not one fur scrubbing.
Takes all the enjoyment out of roasting on Weber . 👍👍🔔
Great job VRA BROTHER.
Keep working the system
Always thanks for support
I just use a bit of aluminium foil and poke a few holes in it, does the same thing as a convection tray.
The guy in the Weber shop gave me this tip and I think they mention it on the DVD that comes with your Weber.
I used to do that when first started demming webers .
Then convection trays came out made life a lot easier .
Less chance of fat fire and we had a few with tin foil not having holes in correct place or fat build up due to not flat.
I still use tin foil if I’m desperate and have no trays .
Thanks for comment and support really appreciated 👍🛎
The real trays are so cheap for a 10 pack, do a way better job and the whole point is to have the holes lined up nicely to prevent fat fires.
I wonder if you spray it down with oven cleaner if it would be easier to clean.
Problem is oven cleaner is caustic and flammable. Even after washing you still have possibility of flammable fumes
@@WeberEnthusiast if you wash with soap and water you will never have problem metal is not a sponge. After all you do clean your oven with it. If it being caustic is your concern you can spray vinegar on it. That will neutralize the lye which is what oven cleaner is. That is what i strip my old cast iron pans with never had a problem.
@@WeberEnthusiast Personally I don't use "oven cleaners" on my webers. But, they are made for exactly that purpose. How many of the millions of oven cleaner users around the world have flammable gas fires for you to base this statement on ?
Wow never heard that. But im sure you would not want to spray it in a oven that was on. I dont think lye itself is flamable. But the propellants are. Some common sense is required when using any propellant. When i clean our oven i always warm my oven up a little turn it off for a few minutes and then spray it down. I have been doing it like that for 40 years have not blown up yet. I would not clean an aluminum grill with it though the aluminum may not like it. But that stainless is ok though. I like your steam method for the grill. As always great video.
What about using a baking tray, with holes drilled in the same spots as the Weber tray?
A lot of people do that , my issue is it moving and then draining straight on centre of burner risking a fat fire .
I still use Weber trays that’s my choice , plus I hate scrubbing burnt on fat . 👍👍
Never had mine move, warp or be anything but perfect.
Last time I checked, the chicken isn’t going to run around in the Weber and have the tray move.. 😂
That’s good to hear I must have a faulty one thanks for sharing .
Last time I checked, heat expands and contracts flat steel
The perm at trays are a swine to clean, I’m going for the disposable ones. Find you’re videos great, thanks from Australia
Thankyou , for supporting my channel. I like to give the best and most informative reviews from my prospective on both my channels. 👍
and for those who are extra keen, you are not throwing away yet more aluminium, use once and throw away, use once and throw away, they are very expensive for what they are.
I agree they are expensive for what they are , but we live in a throw away society. I have a separate bin for mine so I take them to local metal yard and they recycle for free
@@WeberEnthusiast we dont have to perpetuate the myth of a never ending supply though.
@@roscored1000 I know but a lot of people out there hate cleaning ,.
I probably use 2 packs of these over a yr and way more aluminium foil
in the Uk we have throw away BBQs made out of aluminium trays , with charcoal in and a griddle ontop . The sell loads of those which people use for camping and day trip.
@@WeberEnthusiast we have them as well in australia, dont know of anyone who has one but they are there. Hey I hate cleaning too, but I also hate paying taxes and mean dogs but they are a fact of life. each to their own.
@@roscored1000 totally agree we all have our own views and I embrace them .
I will always give honest reviews from my experience, like I did with the Weber rotisserie, pros and cons and what improvements they should do for us consumers.
After all we pay a high price for products in Australia compared to 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 and Europe . So we should get value for the money we work hard for .
I haven’t seen throw away BBQs in Adelaide supermarkets
Really sucks not Available in the USA, I want to buy the Weber Convection tray for my Q2200
I don't understand why weber ship them to Australia but don't support the US when they are built in Chicago
I'm looking at doing giveaways like i do in my other channel so may have to do something for the US viewers of my channel.
Thankyou for watching and support of my channel really appreciated
The lazy throw away society lol. I've had mine for several years, never had a single problem. As for getting it looking all shiny and new after a wash, not going to happen. Have a look at the best chef's in the worlds pots n pans.. same same. Use it for a few months and get back to us.
PS. I do like a lot of your vids, keep up the good work:)
Thank you really appreciate comment and support.
I have used it a few more times , still not a fan .
I like the easy life 😂.
I hate paying for quite expensive foil trays, couldn't care less of it gets character.. I have a huge sink to soak the trivet and the tray overnight. Bung it in the dishwasher. I agree to disagree on this one
I just share what I think as a compliment consumer , everyone is entitled to make there own decision as I said at end of video . That’s why I shared the link which I am not Aphiliated with .
Love my convection tray mainly because I hate the throwaway culture
Good video 👍👍❤✋👏
Thankyou really appreciate continued support and comments 👌👌
Your constant talk on moving made no sense. With weight on it, nothing moves. As for me, I'll stick to aluminum foil. As to cleaning, it depends on if you have time to clean or money to toss.
Like I said in video , it’s everyone personal choice . I put across honest reviews on any product across both my cooking and cleaning channel no matter what the brand .
As I consumer I highly believe in getting what you pay for . Thsnkyou for comment and support really appreciated 👍🛎
@@WeberEnthusiast sorry that I'm one of those that reacts on first impressions. My first reaction as I watched was that you seemed to work a bit to hard to knock the permanent one. May be the truth but I thought it was nit picking taken to the extremes. Talking about the grease coming off or that one has to wash it. Well, grease or oil is a permanent fact of cooking. On the qs the grill is designed to cover the burner. As to washing, grilling always involves cleaning. So if I'm wanting to lessen that I prefer foil. On my q2200 I use foil in the grease tray rather than the premade pans. All that stuff adds up to dollars. But hey, if you have the bucks to throw away, have at it. I have watched other videos of yours and have had no issues. And thanks for those !
@@georgecurtis6463 all good I leave all comments up , as everyone is entitled to their option from there prospective.
As I said I do sponsored reviews and none sponsored on both channels and will never push people to buy some I think is middle of the rd . Thanks again continued support and sharing my channels with family and friends 👍👍
You work for weber, that says it all. That's why you don't like it.
I hate cleaning the q let alone having to scrub a stainless steel plate after cooking marinated meat . Not fun . Also as I said in video I demo for Weber occasionally all my reviews are none bias .
If I was bias I wouldn’t share that I work for Weber .
I’m sharing a review from my prospective and experience.
Everyone is entitled to an opinion . That’s why I don’t delete any comments.
I want to engage with all my viewers and give them the best information from my experience at home with my own Weber BBQs.
If I hate a product I will share it . Thank you for you comment and feedback .
