Is there a trick to getting the grills back on?

You have to work it slowly like I'm sure youve already tried. I Even slightly bent in a small bit of the side to get it to at least start. Then wiggle it around in a circle til it finally seats. Its a pain in the Butt. Sorry no great secret way.

I bought them a few years ago, but as far as I remember they just pop in. I think going straight at it worked best.

Hmmm. Mine is pretty well seasoned so nothing really sticks even when I overcook. I wonder what would happen if you heated it up again (with good ventilation so your smoke alarm doesn't go off!). Maybe it would burn off like what you'd do with your gas grill. It might even help to brush some cooking oil on the remnants to help them burn/flake off. Otherwise I guess you can try just scraping with something that won't scratch it too much; maybe try wetting the grills a little by placing some wet cloths on them (since you can't actually soak them); then either scrape or see if it will cook off once the burnt stuff is softer. Good luck. I hope I'll be able to see a response that states how you made out.

sorry to say that is common withe these types of grills. green egg included. the easiest thing to do is coat with pam and then burn the grates every use. thats not fixing the problem it just cleans them. It's like having cast iron pans. you could bring them inside every use but that may be a hassle. sorry about the issu. :(

The grill is at my cabin, but if I remember I think you just pull them tight around the grill. Meaning they are not attached to grill, I wish i had it in front of me.

After a 5 min warm up, turn off burners and spray Pam - 'grill' version and restart the burners. Zero problems cooking even the most BBQ chicken or hamburger.

removed protective covering on device base, then stuck them to the grill. (I have a Ford Focus)

Just me recommending a few things....Try a new tank, then start the grill, once lit...let run for a minute, then turn off, turn back on high and light.good luck!

Here is a YouTube video on the replacement. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ve-kcKxbXx4 It doesn't take that long to do it the right way and it isn't that difficult. There are videos for doing it the "quick way" but I wouldn't recommend them. With the "quick way" the grills aren't actually attached and could come loose in an accident. Good luck!

Yes, I scrape the grill itself and use the wire brush after each time I use it so it is ready for next time. Then every once in a while I take the grate off and scrape the sides into the aluminum throw away pan underneath that collects all the debris and grease and replace it with a new one. That is about all you need to do......easy.

Not sure what you mean. I replaced my old ones and fired the grill up. They have been great so far.

i could not find a way to do so. the angle on them is not very steep and so the stuff does not drip off fast at all. before grilling I would take plastic spatula or something and scrape off the crusty stuff and make it relatively smooth and spray with Pam or something. the other aspect is that I had to be very careful to keep the heat on pretty low with high fat stuff like burgers or it would invariably flare up. Medium heat---&gt;always flared up with burgers.

There are bolts on top the radiator, and underneath the radiator that you remove. Next there are plastic fasteners in front of the front tire that comes out. Once those are removed th front end pulls straight out. Replace the grill and reverse the possess to reinstall. If you break any of the plastic fasteners you can pic up new ones at an auto store.

I haven't had that problem, but I've only picked them up by the wooden handles. After having used the grill for a few times, I now have several cracks on the grates, and they still don't index securely into the supports. The quality of the cast parts is poor.

Assembly of the grill is very easy. Just set the grill plate on the grill and pull out the pins on either side of the plate and it will drop in and just release the pins. Do the same for the other grill plate.

I use a bunji cord to keep it on, rubber is best wont slide off and make sure the grill is cool before you put it back on.

I looked again and there may be 6 screws in the rear. Also - there may be additional screws behind the front silver grill. I did not attempt to pry the grill off but that may be your answer. Good luck.
