      Oh yes! The Q1200 is a great little grill. I highly recommend it for every day grilling. Save the charcoal for the weekend.

    I got a Weber Q1200 off of ebay for $102.00. Had to drive 30 minutes to pick it up. The guy threw in the cart, which was brand new in the box, for free. He had only used the Weber Q maybe 3 times. It was practically "new".

    Great to see this video. I purchase a Baby Q 200 when they first came out. I later bought a stand the came with it and a cover. It has gone with me on many a road trip. I am retired and now live it Florida. Last month i finally bit the bullet and bought a new grill and burner. Grill is a two piece now. Still the best grill i ever owned for its size and portability.

    Howdy, this is great to see. Baby Q, who knew, perfect for the car and road trips. I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the vids. And I'm always surprised to see or meet folks who have never cooked over brickets, or true charcoal or even rarer live fire ( wood ). The worst of our heat wave is hopefully over so I can cook outdoors again. Stay " frosty" 🍻.

    • @GallaghersGrub
      @GallaghersGrub  3 роки тому +1

      Yeah, hot as heck here in the Northeast too. The baby q really is great to take on the road or for an every day grill when you don't feel like firing up the charcoal or heating up the house with the oven. Cheers Victor!

    Oh wow, incredible, this is what we do here in Germany.
    We restore Weber Qs. I have at the moment like 15 Qs at home. Don’t know how many already passed through here.
    But another friend of mine hits all the way harder. Countless Qs went meanwhile through his hands.
    Our plan is
    Compare the 220 with the 240 and the 260
    Let people try the bbq result without knowing from what Grill the product comes.
    I guess my video will be out in August
    Best regards

    Amazing how cheap you can get them for over there. Here in Australia used webers are very pricey … I have 3 Weber’s high top baby q, 2200, and family q …. They are unbelievable to cook on and very popular here in Australia. I paid 400 for my family q secondhand… they are about 900 here new. Appreciate the tips on cleaning! I will do a factory restore clean on the family q I just bought .

      Weber has upped the prices on all of their grills over here in the U.S. The baby Qs are now going for $259. It's best to buy them used at this point. Or anything for that matter. Cheers Dan! Thanks for watching is Australia.

    And my family thinks I'm crazy for having 3. Bought my first Q100 for $40. Just bought a Q1200 Green for $40. Yesterday I bought a Q140 electric lightly used for $10. I really like the shallow lid of the Q100 but like having the thermometer on the ugly turtle shell Q1200. My new to me Q140 did a far better job with some brats today then I expected.

      @@GallaghersGrub yeah I have used a 3 burner Weber genesis for the last 10yrs. Selling that soon, those stainless steel grates are still ready for another 10yrs. It’s simply too big on the patio. I actually just bought a year old Weber spirit e210 with the fold down sides and like it a lot. Small footprint. Trying to sell my genesis and q100 which will leave me with the 2 burner spirit, q1200 and electric q140.

    I bought a new 2200 just after last Christmas with the cart. Almost 400 for both. A couple weeks later I bought a 220 off Craigslist with a cart for 100. A couple months after that I bought another 220 without a cart off Craigslist for 20 bucks. I would like to maybe trade one of the older ones for a baby Q. Less to clean and uses less gas

    • @GallaghersGrub

      Can you smell gas? I would take the burner tube off and thoroughly clean it. Poke holes in all of the holes and make sure the tube isn't clogged with debris. If that doesn't work you may have to replace the regulator
