Always remember to pre-heat your Weber Q.
To do so open the lid, unfold the work surfaces, and
turn the burner control knob to START/HI. Press the electronic ignition button to light the barbecue.

Once alight, allow the gas to run for 10 minutes with the lid closed. Your Weber Q is now pre-heated and ready for barbecuing. Leave the burner setting on START/HI throughout the barbecuing process.

How often should you turn the meat?
Your Weber Q will produce the most impressive food when you let the ‘convection process’ do its work with minimum interruption.

For this reason, resist the temptation to continually turn the food. Each time you turn the food you have to raise the lid, allowing the hot air to escape. When barbecuing meat, outstanding results are achieved if you use tongs to turn the meat (once only) half-way through the cooking time.

Cooking times for my Weber Q
The following cuts, thicknesses, weights, and barbecuing times are meant to be guidelines rather
than hard and fast rules. Cooking times are affected by such factors as altitude, wind, outside temperature, and how well done you like your meat.

Cooking times on the amazing Weber Q for beef and lamb are for grilled-steak-lifestylemedium but we encourage you to experiment. Let larger cuts of meat rest for 5 to 10 minutes before carving.
