Thorough Cleaning
A clean grill is a happy grill! Before storing your grill for the winter, give it a deep clean. Remove all food debris and grease buildup from the cooking grates, flavorizer bars, and interior of the grill. This will help prevent corrosion and attract pests.
Protect with Oil
Apply a light coat of high-temperature cooking oil to the cooking grates and flavorizer bars. This will help protect them from rust and corrosion during the winter months.
Store Your Gas Cylinder Safely
- Disconnect: Disconnect the gas cylinder from the grill.
- Store Outdoors: If storing your grill outdoors, leave the gas cylinder connected.
- Store Indoors: If storing your grill indoors, remove the gas cylinder and store it in a well-ventilated area, away from heat sources.
Protect Your Igniter
- Remove Batteries: Remove the batteries from the igniter to prevent damage from cold temperatures.
Invest in a Quality Grill Cover
A high-quality grill cover will protect your grill from the elements. Ensure it’s a snug fit and properly secured to prevent water and debris from entering.
Storage Tips
- Garage or Shed: If possible, store your grill in a garage or shed to provide optimal protection from the elements.
- Outdoor Storage: If outdoor storage is necessary, ensure it’s covered and elevated off the ground to prevent moisture buildup.
