Great information. The Egg is a significant investment so a little R&M along the way is always good.
Thank you for all of the great videos!
You are very very welcome.
I have watched all your videos! Fantastic! Thank you. I feel like I'm ready to start my BGE journey.
You got this! Welcome to the addiction!
I came here for advice on washing the exterior of the BGE and I appreciate your tips! Question: how does one brag about how amazing KickAsh Basket Gloves are…. But not actually be using the amazing KickAsh basket or KickAsh Can… these 2 products are essential to my system. Can’t live without.
We do! We actually sell the KAB on our website now! I also cannot live without my Lick Ash Can
Another practical common sense way to maintain the BGE or any other grill. Thanks !!
David
You bet David, we are glad that you liked it!
Thank you! Ready to clean our egg!
You got this!
Great video. Just finished my first Egg cook and was wondering how much cleaning I needed to do. This answered all my questions. My biggest problem was the grate, but now that I know the best tools to use my next cleaning will be much smoother. Thank you.
You’re very welcome Mary! Welcome to the addiction!
Captain Ron, your videos are great I just got a minimax couple of days ago, your videos have helped a lot! You have a sweet watch!
First-- Welcome to the addiction. Second--Glad you enjoy the vids, 3rd---great eye, thanks my new friend
Thanks, that was great!! I really enjoy your videos. I am in Australia and only recently got my first Big Green Egg after having Webers. I love the Big Green Egg and your videos are really helpful.
That's great Aaron, welcome to the Big Green Addiction!
So good! Information is perfect!!!
Glad you like it Jessica! follow us on FB and Insta too! @fogocharcoal @cptnron302
Thanks for the info, we’ve had our large BGE for roughly 15 years! Still working great 👍. I do a thorough cleaning a couple times per year, and maintenance cleaning in between. The only thing I’ve ever had to do was change the gasket, otherwise flawless!
That is awesome!
Love the channel! Ron is entertaining and very informative.
Hi Mike and thank you. Glad you enjoy it!
Suggestion make sure to line up the opening of the firebox with vent door opening to prevent air flow issues. Good info Ron. 👊🦅🔥
Thanks Russ, that's exactly right
Great vid, as always.
Appreciate that, thanks so much.
I Love these videos! I just re stained my BGE xl table and now gonna do a clean burn then clean the egg itself. Very Helpful. Oh and a new gasket hahah
Wonderful! It means a lot to hear that these videos are providing some value!
Very informative and well done....simple and a few different options for some of the cleaning . Thanks for the video.l
You're very welcome Michael
Excellent as always!
Thank you! Cheers!
Love your videos! Very helpful and informative.
Thanks Judy, I am so glad that you are finding them useful!
Great channel, love our egg
Awesome! Thank you! I understand, I love everything BGE
Nice clean egg captain
Thanks James!
Hey buddy hello from Australia. I don’t have a BGE but have a KJ classic. Love your videos as they are very informative and entertaining as they apply to both grills. Just wish we could get fogo charcoal in Australia. Keep up the great work
Yes sir Jim, you are absolutely right!
Love your videos
Thanks, we are glad that you are enjoying them!
Love your videos. They have helped me a make better food on my large BGE. Could you do a video on desserts on the BGE? I have tried grilled pineapple and a apple crisp in a dutch oven on mine. What have you tried??
First, thank you, you just made my day. Second, I love that idea. With the help of @annfernandez I have made cookies , cheesecakes and even a pistachio pudding cake that's green on the inside. I am definitely adding a desserts on the Egg to the list. Here's a link to the cake that is on BGE's website that we did. biggreenegg.com/recipes/pistachio-pudding-cake/
Great comment and video
Glad you enjoyed it
Good video. I highly recommend putting foil over the plate setter (ConvEggtor) to make for easy cleanup. Just replace the foil. I also use drip pans to keep the drippings from burning on the plate setter and adding an acrid taste to the cook. The plate setter gets HOT. I space my drip pans off the plate setter with little rolls of aluminum foil so they're not in direct contact of the plate setter.
I actually do the same thing John. I wish I'd have included it in the video. I have done it in previous videos. Thanks for the remnder!
@@FOGOcharcoal You're doing a great service here to potential and current BGE owners. You can be forgiven for not posting it on this video. Keep posting! It's great info that BGE owners need to know.
thanks for thus video lesson.
You're very welcome Rob
Thanks...
You're welcome, we are glad that you got something out of it!
Very nice video boss..
Hey there Jose, thank you sir!
Fantastic video!
Hi TJ, thanks so much sir!
This needs to happen here!! Hopefully the 3 inches of snow we’re getting tomorrow will be the last we get this year. Then I’ll be a grill cleaning maniac!!😂😂
Hi Kathy! Yes, that definitely sounds like you're ready for some warmer weather! Come down for a visit and make a video with us!
@@FOGOcharcoal I can’t make it there, but I am going to be at Memphis in May!! 😱🙋🏻♀️🙌
Hello from Austria - thanks for your great Videos! The are really helpful for me as a BGE newbie ✌️! Too bad that the Fogo charcoal is not available in Austria.
Hi Roman, welcome my friend!
Thank you for the tips
You are very welcome!
Very informative
Hi Bill, glad you got some value out of it!
Just brought one.
Welcome to the addiction!
How do you clean the inside of the dome? What do you do with the cast iron dome caps?
See our clean burn video
Ron, keep up the great work. Just got my first BGE - a used large egg with the 49" metal rolling cart shown on BGE website. The egg is in great shape but the finish on the cart top is cracked and flaking. Maybe from hot pans. Do you have any suggestions to restore the cart top? Thanks for your excellent channel and thoughtful content.
Hey Peter, congrats and welcome to the addiction! I do not have any suggestions for that other than contacting BGE customer service and seeing if there is anything that they can do.
I have a few chips in the paint. Do they have touch up paint for the dome?
If you contact BGE, I do believe that they sell a touch up paint.
I always thought i was a bit weird because I clean my egg after every cook. But i reckon it helps.
The way I figure it, it just can't hurt to have it clean all of the time.
the green egg grill brush you used is exactly the one I am looking for but can not find it. Any suggestions? I tried the BGE website but that is a challenge all in itself. keep up the great videos
Hi Steve, try out yur local BGE dealer. If not, I'd send at email to BGE headquarters.
Hi Ron, thanks a lot as usual,great video.. quick question, my regulator is getting stock, do you have a recommendation of how to clean it to avoid this? Thanks again
Hey Gaston, i haven't encountered it much with my REGGulator cap but I used to simply throw my Daisy Wheel on the grates after a cook and let it heat up really well or throw it right into the hot coals while the egg shuts down. You will have to reseason it afterwards just like any cast iron. I'd try scraping as much as you can with a razor blade first though.
For the inner rings, should we use the wire brush like you did on the plate setter? I have some build up on them from some drippings and haven’t cleaned them yet.
Sure, you can do that or use a paint scraper. Making pizza or a hot burn will work well too.
One thing I do if the grill grate is building up residue is to loosely place aluminum foil on top of the grate once the cook is finished. Open up the vents and let it get to 550/600* for 5 or 10 minutes, then shut the vents. The grate should be clean enough for the next day.
That's a great idea! Thanks Mike!
I recently bought a used BGE off of Craigslist to see if I like it and go from there. The seller said … and I can see it … that a new gasket had recently been installed.
I would like to do a clean burn to clean the inside. If I put aluminum foil on both edges of the lids, do you think the gasket would survive or disintegrate? Also, if I do NOT do a clean burn, how would I clean all of the interior stuff, conveggtor, the lid and base?
If you have a new gasket, I would skip the clean burn. The inside is supposed to turn black and get some buildup. You could scrape it with an aluminum foil ball and that'll work pretty well.
I do what you did pretty much. I remove ash after every cook with the ash tool and I remove everything from the egg every bag of charcoal. You didn't say anything about the lid. I have a lot of black stuff building up on my egg's lid. Once a year I take a electric wire brush to the black stuff on the lid and the inside of the egg. I only brush only till when the black stuff starts turn dark brown so I don't wear down the ceramics. Is cleaning this black stuff off the lid necessary? I do it so it doesn't add flavor to my cooks. I looked into a lot of professional places and they don't clean the burnt grease out of their grills.
It is really a matter of personal preference. Depending on who you ask, you'll get different answers. I rub mine with balled up aluminum foil when I see it starting to flake off. I don't want that getting in my food.
@@FOGOcharcoal Good idea to use Ron.
Nice..
Thank you! Cheers!
Hey Ron, any tips on how to clean the acacia wood egg mates?
Oh boy, that's a tough one. I don't have those but I know some have had to sand and restain them with waterproof stain, ie. Thompsons.
@@FOGOcharcoal I will give it whirl. Thanks man.
I use a Dawn/water mix...a couple of drops of Dawn in a sprayer with water.
@@davidm8997 Cool thanks man. Much appreciated. I’ll give yours and Ron’s a go.
Nice video. The one touch system on the Weber kamado is far superior to anything kJ or BGE have. Just saying…
Thanks Michael, I appreciate that. I'm glad that you found one that works better for you. We just love that people are out and enjoying grilling, whatever grill you're cooking on!
What type of gloves are those again? Thanks
The gloves came from Kick Ash Basket. I got a pair (free) when I ordered the Kish Ash Basket. I like them as well when handling lump.
Exactly right, thanks for the help! I love those gloves!!
@mike m is exactly right, they come from Kick Ash Basket
Surprised you didn’t hit on cleaning the underside of the upper dome.
Hey Mark, thanks for the comment. We did a video about clean burns already. I suppose I could have hit on that without doing a clean burn as not everyone agrees with the high heat cleaning. A balled up piece of aluminum foil works pretty well for cleaning the inside of the dome. Thank you for the reminder, I'll put it on the list of topics to cover.
Hi Ron, thanks for another informative video as only you can present! 🙂 I would like to make one comment. I really dislike the off-axis shot of you talking to another camera. So, you're talking to cam 1. Cam 2 is shooting you talking to cam1. I just find that very distracting and off-putting. Other than that, the presentations are great. Keep up the great work.
Hey David, I see what you mean, we will work on that!
The entire reason I clicked on this video was to figure out how to clean the top vent. He didn’t even bother to explain that.
Sorry Joe, what part of the top vent are you speaking about?
