Thanks for your question! Depending on the oil you use to season your grids and what that oils specific smoke point is, you should heat your grill between 250 to 350 degrees. You bake your grids for approximately 30 minutes. Please do not leave your grill unattended during this process! If you have further questions please do not hesitate to reach out via email at webcare@napoleon.com Thanks!

Hi Dale, Thank you for your feedback. The grids should be left in the grill or oven at about 250 to 300 degrees for 30 mins to an hour. Let me know if you have any additional questions. Regards :)

@@NapoleonProducts Are you sure? I think it is Fahrenheit, not Celsius. 300C equals 572F! That is way too hot! It would burn most oils. I season all my cast iron with Crisco, in my home oven which has better temp control, at 350 F.

I did not season the grill at the first. Instead I washed the grate and coat it with the oil and put it back to the grill and turn on the fire for 15 min. Is that long enough ? should I leave their for whole 30 min? I'm kind of worried to dry burn the grate for that long. The black smoke keeps coming up after 10 mins

The cast iron cooking grids need to be seasoned with an oil that is high in saturated fats (that has a high smoke point) like vegetable shortening or coconut oil. They should be baked for 30 minutes to allow the oil to penetrate the cast iron. This process may be repeated twice to complete the seasoning process. Please be sure to allow the grids to cool down between each time you season them. 🙂 If you have further questions please do not hesitate to reach out to our support team at webcare@napoleon.com

Yes, the grill needs to be closed while you are seasoning your grids to ensure a steady temperature. Great question!

In the instruction pamphlet with the bbq, it mentions to "preheat your grill for 15 minutes first, then place the seasoned cooking grids on the grill. Turn the knows to medium with the lid closed. allow the cooking grids to heat approx one-half hour. So should we preheat the grill for that amount of time prior too? Also it mentions in the manual to turn the knobs off first before the propane, but I was always told opposite. What are your thoughts and suggestions here? Thank you :)

Hi Brandon, We suggest you season your grids and let them heat up with your grill. This way, there is no chance of anyone getting burned. Please ensure you allow your grill to cool down completely before touching your seasoned grids. The manual advises to turn your knobs off first, then your propane at the tank to ensure it doesn't go into safety mode. The other way around could trigger it go into safety. I understand the logic of turning the propane off first, to clear the fuel out of the burners. What you could do is turn the knobs off, then the propane, and then turn the knobs back on if you want to ensure the fuel is out of the line/ burners (and then turn them back off). The most important part is that the fuel is turned off when not in use 🙂 Please let us know if you have any further questions.

There’s no mention of coconut oil in the manual. Is this safe to use to season?

Hi Sashia, Thank you for your inquiry. We recommend using a grease that is high in saturated fat like vegetable shortening or lard for seasoning your cast iron, however coconut oil has a smoke point of 350 degrees and will also adhere to the grids. Let us know if you have any additional questions.

Hi! Why if the cooking grids are "Porcelain Coated Cast Iron Iconic WAVE" do I need to season them? What is the purpose of the porcelain coating then?!?
@NapoleonProducts

Hi Alberto, Thank you for your great question. By regularly seasoning your grids you are adding a protective coating, which will aid in resisting corrosion and increase your grids non-stick capabilities. Seasoning your grids is recommended as a preventative measure as sauces and salts can be corrosive.

After. Treat all grill tops (even stainless) like a cast iron frying pan. If you get them seasoned properly, they create a non stick coating. When they're still warm, just wipe them clean with a rag and fat. TLDR - If you find you can't keep your grill seasoned, you're either using the wrong kind of oil with a low smoke point, or scorching your grill and burning the seasoning off. You want an oil with a high smoke point, like refined avocado oil with a smoke point of 520 F. A little smoke from the bare grill surface is ok, turn it down a little. Too much smoke and you're burning the seasoning off. People's biggest mistake when grilling is using scorching heat. The only time both burners should be on high is in the winter possibly, or to deep clean the BBQ.

Yes, you will need to season them more thoroughly, and often this way they will remain non-stick and easier to clean. On the daily, cleaning is required as well by just a pre-heat and using a brass brush or wireless is popular these days. I use the wood paddle before and after each use, just to remove the debris. The best way to clean your cast stainless steel cooking grids is to remove them from the grill every so often and soak them in hot soapy water, give them a good cleaning. This way you can get them almost like new again. Good luck and Happy Grilling!
