Thank u so much. We have gone everywhere to get this information and nobody knew the answer. U have been a lifesaver to those of us the live in hurricane alley.
Thank you that was so helpful I have the grill to go and brought to a friends house and didn’t want to spend the money to buy a new larger tank being that she was 3 hours away I went to Home Depot and got those small tanks and wondered how long they last and how to install them and now you showed me thank you Diana Vaiano
Thanks! I've never owned a grill of any kind, but my family gave me a Weber Q for my birthday. I'm excited but I really know absolutely nothing about using or maintaining it. Finding your channel has been so helpful!
Yes I went to tractor supply today and after you buy the new empty 20lb tank they will fill it for $10-$15. Just need to find that transfer valve online somewhere so I can refill them.
Hi there - Thank you for the video! Say- for safeties sake Please consider opening the cover before turning gas on / igniting just in case there was a delay in it lighting you dont want a kaboom !
We RV full time and I didn’t like purchasing the one pound tank so often. Have been using the new 11 pound tank for two months almost daily with my WeberQ. Very convenient to store and use. Bought my WeberQ largely due to your videos. Found a heat shield and cook grill at Thrift Store, works great. Thanks for the tip!
Glad I discovered you! I just got my weber Q2200 and the Coleman 1lb tanks…4pk for backups. And I’m new to the Q… charcoal in the past, but my apartment balcony has been okayed for the Q. I was nervous about trying it tonight.. but watching your video showed me how easy to attach, as well. Thank You!
Welcome aboard! Enjoy your new Q. I've got a new video coming out next week that will show you how to really clean it when the time comes. Cheers Julie!
@@GallaghersGrub Thanks! Looking forward to it! And btw, I was excited to see that you put a small foil patch of wood chips! I did that on my past charcoal grills…but I really want to do that on the Q!!! Cheers!
Thank you so much for that experiment. I've always wondered how many 1 lbs tanks I would go through if that was mainly what I would be using with the Weber Q.
Another great video. I use my Weber Q as a backup for family cookouts or for a quick grill session. Never tested to see how long these little tanks last. Almost alway have an extra cylinder or two in the grill box. Good to know one little tank is good for 3 hours or so. Keep the videos coming. Really enjoy watching your work.
That's a cool experiment. I just bought a brand new in the box Weber Q1200 for $75. I'm a charcoal guy all day but couldn't pass up the price, and this will be great for quick weekday meals.
Very helpful! I used those little cans for my Q when I rented - and always ran out at the worst moments - then upgraded to big tanks when I owned a house (then threw the Q away after mice moved in one winter). Now I just have to convert 3:45 into number of beers consumed...
Nice test! Our q1200 is primarily our camping grill, but I bought the hose and use the big tanks with the grill in our garage (with the garage door open) in the winter when I don’t want to get rained on.
I had no idea I could use these on my Weber! I always assumed those dinky little canisters would only attach to a Bunsen burner style stove or something
Your videos inspired me to buy a Q2200 gas grill. I use it in my balcony and I am sure that it's not disturbing for my neighbours as another gas grill would be. I live in Greece and I use a 11 lb cylinder which also has a "one click" valve for easy connection. That feature and also size of grill and cylinder make it portable as well. Thanks...
Thank you for this. I've been curious myself and thanks for revisiting the ol' Weber Q. Any chance you can make a video about maintaining, seasoning and your best non-sticky practices for the grilling grates? :)
Thank you soo much for this video! I was looking at one of these for tailgating but wasn't sure what to expect in grilling time. This is better than anticipated, so it's a go for me. Again, super helpful!
Good subject to cover. I gave a few tips on some of the comments like these little bottles can be refilled if you get the adapter. You can normally find them in sporting goods stores and instructions. The thighs looked great. Let's get going with some tailgate foods. Or some fall roadtrip meals. And again it's great to see you back doing your vids.😀👍
@@TheCorporateCollege Well, if I have all the time and resource to test all the queries I have in life, I wouldn't get much accomplished in the same amount of time. That's why I came online to search for test results performed by people who enjoys doing them (and hopefully compensated well for it). What I'm trying to say is although I appreciate the video creator's time in creating this video, his tests are statistically insignificant when he's only testing a setting in the middle. What I don't understand is the purpose of your comment; it's neither constructive or informative. For others who is equally as curious as I am, I saved some time in calculating the theoretical maximum usage time per 1 lb bottle. Each 1LB bottle (assuming has exactly 1 LB of propane) has theoretical value of 21591 BTU. Assuming q1200 indeed burns exactly 8500 BTU/hour at maximum setting. It should in theory last around 2 and a half hours. Obviously this is all on paper (and i don't know the propane usage at lowest setting) which is why I searched for videos like this to answer my question. P.S. Obviously, I know most people are content with the information that was presented. However, coming from a scientific background, the way an experiment is designed means a lot to me. If it was designed and executed improperly, the information presented might be false or misleading. What I pointed out is in fact just the biggest blatant gap in the experiment design; there are other gaps that stood out to me too. I know youtube isn't a peer reviewed source of knowledge which is why I overlooked everything else and kept my original comment simple and sweet.
The 1lb tanks just make it so convenient, even if dont camp or take this thing out. I use this as my main grill and love the quick swap of the 1lb tanks. Toss n go. I always keep a spare on hand. Once you get used to the way this cooks its a good little grill for 3-4 people easy.
Welcome back! I use the connector-hose to my portable Weber. This is interesting as I have considered bringing my Weber on trips with me. Thank you for this demonstration. Looking forward to more videos! Have a great fall!🍗🥩🌭🍷
Thanks for the video. Coincidentally I just bought a one pounder for the first time a few days ago and was wondering this as well. The 1lb tanks are best if you're going to the park for a cookout and don't want to lug around a big tank
NIce. We dont have that size here, only the webre original sized tanks. I need to try this using one of them - have actually always wondered :) Nice chicken too!
Just found your channel, the smoke pouch and grill grate look like winners. Have had my little Q since before they put thermometers in the lids. Great cooking tool. PS Subscribed.
Nice video. I have the exact same Weber grill, having owned and used mine for seven years. It does light every time! 🔥I always preheat for six to seven minutes on the highest heat setting to disinfect the grill surface, and then crank it all the way down to the lowest setting for grilling burgers, brats and hot dogs. My compliments to the chef here on your indirect grilling and smoking method! Thanks for the tip. I would ballpark my grill to use one full camping gas canister at 3 hours on average. Question is: how to properly dispose of these gas canisters?
This is hard to believe. I guess most tanks are losing gas over time due to small leaks, and people probably don't realize what the potential is if they keep a cap seal on the tank to prevent such leaks.
@@GallaghersGrub im sorry to bother you with this but I've seen most of the videos that you have and there really helpful... but I got this question I want to ask.. ima be going on a road trip from Chicago to California and were gonna be camping throughout the the whole trip for a week. Go and come back ..do you have any brand that you favor the most for camping wise.. its gonna be our first one and I want to be fully prepared
A normal sized steak takes about 10 minutes to pre-heat the grill, and about 10 mins max cooking time. About 20 mins total. That would be about 8-9 cooks for steaks.
Thanks for this! My 20# tank that I used on my big old grill just ran out. Looking at using something small for my new Q. Might just get the small canister as a backup until I can get the big tank refilled and up to my deck.
My question is, that was medium heat. Let's say we have a smoker. To maintain 250, would that be considered less than 'medium'? Basically how long do you think it would last maintaining 250 on a smoker?
Medium heat on a Weber Q runs about 400 degrees F. I really would have no idea how long a canister would last on a smoker. Sorry I can't be more helpful.
Anyone's guess about....'how long the bottles last'....Unpunctured. In other words...is there a shelf life of the Propane, despite it be sealed in the bottle?.....I have about 15 or so...of these 1lb Green bottles....None of them used yet; but was wondering how long ( as 'surplus....hopefully in Years?) they'll just sit there, and still be good say...in 5 years or something? thanks and great video!
I always had this question and now the mystery has been resolved. By the way since weber is not making roast rack for Weber Q 2200 (one I have) what would be a better alternative ?
Sorry I missed this comment. You just have to look around for a roasting rack. Maybe try one from a toaster oven. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend.
If the Q is in one stationary place, then yes you can. But if you're putting it into your car to take it somewhere, disconnect the tank. You don't want to bump the gas knob on.
@@GallaghersGrub the one gallon tank is a bit hard to find and sometimes more expensive than the 5 ( 20 pounder) gallon tanks. But they are really nice to have on some occasions.
You can leave it attached. But if you're transporting your Q, you should take it off, because it's very easy to accidentally turn the gas knob on, and you'll lose all your gas.
I always keep the little black cap and replace it when storing the canister. I've had no issues with leaking gas. That said, if you leave it plugged in and put it in storage, you may accidentally turn on the gas and find an empty tank.
Got a Q1200 couple years ago thanks to your videos. Thanks! Have had fun trying some of your recipes as well as general cooking. Was wondering when you'd start releasing new videos :) Ironically I've been having problems with using 15lb tank with adapter hoses. The flow of propane keeps stopping and flame goes out. I've googled the problem and something to do with increased pressure of large tank versus small one. Tried all the fixes, worked for a while, but now won't ignite at all. Just using regular propane tanks now. Have you had any problems? I see you always use large tanks. Thanks for any info... keep up the good work!
I've used many larger 15 and 20 lb tanks as well as the small tanks and have never had an issue. Unfortunately, your grill may have some defect, but I'm not certain. Thanks for watching!
There's a safety valve/diaphragm that senses high flows of gas just as the gas leaves the hose and enters the grill. It triggers, and the flow is greatly reduced, if you just crank the tank valve open. Try to turn it about 1/8 turn per 4 seconds until the first turn is over, it should cure the problem (this takes patience). The diaphragms age and get stiff, which makes them more sensitive. If you turn the tank valve slowly, the safety system does not activate. For City Escape Griller - pictures of where you set the heat control would have made this video better. Also, if you put a hand behind your phone, the lens will focus there.
You said you are using the bigger gas tank than the 1lb. How do you use it? Do you have an adapter? What is it? I just wanna have big tank and forget about the gas problem.
City Escape Griller: Thanks for the informative video. If I placed a small 2 quart cast iron Dutch Oven on the Weber Q would it fry fish or would I be better off getting a small burner designed for frying? Also do you think the 1 pound tank would fry fish for one or two people 2 or 3 times during a 2 night camping trip? Trying to keep it simple, compact but still practical. Thank You
This has happened to me several times. Occasionally, the threads on the tank may be stripped a little bit. It will usually attach, but it may take a few minutes of really pushing to get it on. The Coleman brand tanks tend to have better threading.
It would be interesting to find out if a smaller oven would last longer. Its a bit frustrating that you only got a bit less than 4 hours of this. If someone needed to depend on this daily then they'd basically be using up a lot of propane all the time.

3 hours and 45 minutes on medium heat. You’re welcome.
No thank you
You sir are gentleman and a scholar
@@deadringer2349 Hear, hear!
Is that on full blast or medium or low? How many burners going? What size grill?
@@joea9222 that's a Weber q what was once called the baby but I think it's a 1200 now. That has one u-shaped burner on it
Sounds right! I camp for a whole weekend and just use these. Ive never had to replace one during a 4 day adventure.
Thanks Rob. Cheers man!
Thank u so much. We have gone everywhere to get this information and nobody knew the answer. U have been a lifesaver to those of us the live in hurricane alley.
You're very welcome. It was a question I needed to answer for myself. Happy Thanksgiving!
I would have guessed that the 1lb tank would have lasted about half an hour or so. Dang, was I off! Thanks for making the video.
Right on Gunbu. Cheers!
It lasts for 7 - 40 minute meals or 14 - 20 minute meals. You can get yourself a quick breakfast and a quick supper for 1 week on that one tank.
Most helpful answer, thanks! I don’t plan to use it in one sitting, as I’m about to do vanlife full-time and I have 2 of these ready to go!

So a 20lbs at Medium heat will last roughly 75 hours, I'm sure outdoor air temp may change how long a tank will last.

Mine last a little over 2 1/5 hours in my buddy heater . I refill the bottles , so always have extras ready .

Excellent video! Really appreciate the info! I only use the 1lb. Bc I rent and don't have a permanent spot for it and a larger tank.
Thanks. The small tanks are great, but they add up $$$ after a while if you grill a lot. Cheers!
same here! lol 1lb still works pretty good just get a three pack of propane at walmart for $9.00 can’t beat that

Interesting question answered. Thanks
Any time!
CAN YOU LEAVE THEM CONNECTED IF YOU ARE NOT USING THE GRILL... OR WILL IT LEAK SINCE THERE IS NO SHUT OFF VALVE... ? TIA
If the Q is in one stationary place, then yes you can. But if you're putting it into your car to take it somewhere, disconnect the tank. You don't want to bump the gas knob on.
If the tank is not empty, can it be removed from the grill, stored, and reattached for
the next use?
Yes, definitely
Thanks
Good video! Pasta looks great!
Thanks Brett. Cheers!
Agree. Just bought an 11 pound tank. Will keep a one pound canister as backup
11-lb. What country? I think here in the U.S. we mostly have 15 and 20-lb tanks. Cheers Terry!
@@GallaghersGrub the one gallon tank is a bit hard to find and sometimes more expensive than the 5 ( 20 pounder) gallon tanks. But they are really nice to have on some occasions.
So do I just leave this little tank connected to my grill when it’s not in use? Thanks for the video!
You can leave it attached. But if you're transporting your Q, you should take it off, because it's very easy to accidentally turn the gas knob on, and you'll lose all your gas.
Love my Q2000 kickass grill
I was curious too,thanks.
You bet.
Love your channel by the way and bought my Weber Q because of it. Looking for a roasting rack.
Terry Barnhart I use the rack out of my toaster oven. Works great!
Weber doesn't make the rack or shield available for the U.S. market anymore. So yeah, you've got to find an alternate. Cheers Terry!
I have one of these cans from 1995 I never used.
Wonder if it will still work
Hmm. Be careful.
Venison for supper? Nice!
Thank you for the video!
Right on Juan. Thanks for watching.
SKX on an olive Nato strap. Nice
The perfect watch for grilling. Cheers Wil!
That helped me a lot. Thank you.
Glad it helped! Thanks for stopping by the channel.
Hello, thanks for the awesome videos. Please tell us which Q you are using at any given time...3000, 2000, or 1000 series.
I use the Q1200. It's a great portable grill Tresa.
The BIGGER question is; once the canister is punctured for use, but, it is only used for 10-20 minutes, does the propane leak out?
I always keep the little black cap and replace it when storing the canister. I've had no issues with leaking gas. That said, if you leave it plugged in and put it in storage, you may accidentally turn on the gas and find an empty tank.
Thank you !
Thank you!
I'm interested in a camping grill. Can you unscrew the tank without losing the propane? Do I leave the tank on the grill until it's empty?
Yes, you should unscrew the tank, when transporting. It will not lose its gas. If not, you can accidentally bump the knob and turn the gas on.
Got a Q1200 couple years ago thanks to your videos. Thanks! Have had fun trying some of your recipes as well as general cooking. Was wondering when you'd start releasing new videos :)
Ironically I've been having problems with using 15lb tank with adapter hoses. The flow of propane keeps stopping and flame goes out. I've googled the problem and something to do with increased pressure of large tank versus small one. Tried all the fixes, worked for a while, but now won't ignite at all. Just using regular propane tanks now. Have you had any problems? I see you always use large tanks.
Thanks for any info... keep up the good work!
I've used many larger 15 and 20 lb tanks as well as the small tanks and have never had an issue. Unfortunately, your grill may have some defect, but I'm not certain. Thanks for watching!
There's a safety valve/diaphragm that senses high flows of gas just as the gas leaves the hose and enters the grill. It triggers, and the flow is greatly reduced, if you just crank the tank valve open. Try to turn it about 1/8 turn per 4 seconds until the first turn is over, it should cure the problem (this takes patience). The diaphragms age and get stiff, which makes them more sensitive. If you turn the tank valve slowly, the safety system does not activate.
For City Escape Griller - pictures of where you set the heat control would have made this video better. Also, if you put a hand behind your phone, the lens will focus there.
You said you are using the bigger gas tank than the 1lb. How do you use it? Do you have an adapter? What is it? I just wanna have big tank and forget about the gas problem.
If you’re in the U.S, you can buy an adapter hose at Home Depot or Lowe’s for about $20-$25.
City Escape Griller: Thanks for the informative video. If I placed a small 2 quart cast iron Dutch Oven on the Weber Q would it fry fish or would I be better off getting a small burner designed for frying? Also do you think the 1 pound tank would fry fish for one or two people 2 or 3 times during a 2 night camping trip? Trying to keep it simple, compact but still practical. Thank You
I would take 2 tanks
Can someone till why my Benzomatic canister will not connect or thread to my Weber grill?
This has happened to me several times. Occasionally, the threads on the tank may be stripped a little bit. It will usually attach, but it may take a few minutes of really pushing to get it on. The Coleman brand tanks tend to have better threading.
@@GallaghersGrub thank uou
i converted it to a 10 lb tank and couldn"t be happier! But its good to know about how long they last!
Thanks for watching, Kevin.
Thank you S
You're very welcome. Cheers!
Great video!
Thanks ULTron!
It would be interesting to find out if a smaller oven would last longer.
Its a bit frustrating that you only got a bit less than 4 hours of this. If someone needed to depend on this daily then they'd basically be using up a lot of propane all the time.
Using these on the regular would be expensive. I definitely recommend the bigger tanks with the adapter hose.
for cook in the balcony better to use this little shit or to connect a big one?
