Weber-Cook on a Q

You really can cook just about anything on your Weber Q, even desserts and bread. It’s all a case of using a 
different technique, cooking with the lid on and taking control of the cooking temperature. It’s really easy, so 
here’s a quick rundown on grilling, roasting and baking to perfection.




​ ​ ​GRILL

​ ​ ​ ​For small cuts and food that takes less than 20 mins to cook.

            • Switch the burner(s) on full.
            • Pre-heat the barbecue for 5 minutes with the lid down.
            • Arrange food on the barbecue and close the lid.

​ ​ ​ROAST/BAKE




​ ​ ​For Q1000, 1200 & 2200 models, the barbecue works like a fan-assisted oven. This is great for
roasts, bread and cakes.
        • Switch the burner on full and pre-heat the barbecue for 5 minutes with the lid down.
        • Turn the burner down to low.
        • Place the food in the centre of the cooking grate and close the lid.

​ ​N.B. Remember to use a roasting shield and rack when roasting and baking on smaller Q models to avoid burning the underside of your food.

​ ​ ​ROAST/BAKE



 ​ ​For Q3200 models, the barbecue works like a fan-assisted oven. This is great for roasts, bread and cakes.

        • Switch the burners on full and pre-heat the barbecue for 5 minutes with the lid down.
        • Turn off the middle burner and place the food in the centre of the cooking grate over the unlit burner.
        • Close the lid.
