Nothing beats a good BBQ with your family and friends. The best BBQ meals are cooked on a clean hot grill. We have put together a few handy tips that will help you keep you BBQ looking and performing as new.
Before cleaning your BBQ you should check the manufacturers manual for cleaning recommendations. To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, routinely perform the following safety checks:
- Check the gas hoses for cracking or gas leaks before lighting the BBQ.
- Empty and clean the grease tray regularly
- When lighting a grill, always keep the lid open.
- Keep the gas hose as far away as possible from hot surfaces and dripping hot grease.
- Never pour lighter fluid or gasoline on a propane or gas grill
- Do not use your grill in a garage, carport or under a surface that can catch fire and ensure you meet the minimum clearances as per manufacturers instructions.
- Always preheat your grill and brush or scrape with your brush/paddle of choice to remove any left over grease. Ensure your cooking surface is nice and clean before you start.
- Get in the habit of maintaining your BBQ grill to maximize the lifespan of your investment.
