There’s no reason to put the grill all the way when cold weather hits. Instead, put it where it’s protected from the weather<\/a> (and won’t smoke you out), and grill all year long. Take care of your grill so that it’s in good working order whenever you need it, no matter the season, and check out some delicious seasonal grill recipes.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” centered_text=”true” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” gradient_type=”default”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1672415009127{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 50px !important;}”]\n

No matter the season, it’s important to take care of your grill. To deep clean your gas grill, start by turning off the propane. Then, carefully detach the burner, tubes, and grates. If using ceramic briquettes, remove them as well. Wash the pieces with warm, soapy water and use toothpicks to clean out any gunk. Scrub the interior and exterior of the grill with a stiff-wire grill brush. After towel drying the pieces, put them back into place and turn the propane back on.<\/p>\n

For your charcoal grill, start by removing the smoke and debris build-up from the underside of your lid with soapy water. Then, toss out anything left in the kettle bowl and scrub it clean with a steel and wool pad. Whether your grill is charcoal or gas, make sure you brush it off and preheat it completely to disinfect it before using it and when you’re done cooking, turn the heat up all the way to burn off any of the grease or drippings. Once it’s cool, put the grill cover back on.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” max_width=”1000″ text_direction=”default”]\n
