Our tips and tricks for protecting your barbecue in winter:
A thorough cleaning before winter storage:
- Remove any detachable parts such as the grates, grease tray, and burners (for gas models). Clean them thoroughly with hot soapy water or a natural degreaser made from baking soda and white vinegar.
- For the grates, use a wire brush or a cleaning stone to remove any encrusted residue.
Don't forget the nooks and crannies! Rust loves to take hold in neglected areas.
Protect sensitive materials:
- Apply a thin coat of cooking oil to metal surfaces, such as grills and cast iron parts. This acts as a moisture barrier and prevents rust.
- If your barbecue contains wooden parts (like the handles), apply a nourishing product to prevent them from cracking due to the cold.
Invest in a quality cover:
- Have you bought a swivel BBQ? A waterproof cover is essential for BBQs stored outdoors. Make sure it's weather-resistant but breathable to prevent condensation, which could promote rust.
Add a desiccant bag or some pieces of charcoal under the cover to absorb excess moisture.

Store it in the right place:
- If possible, store your barbecue in a shed, garage, or dry place. If you don't have a covered space, make sure it is raised off the ground and covered.
Take care of the accessories:
-
- Brushes, spatulas, tongs, and other utensils also deserve cleaning. Once dry, store them in an airtight container or bag so they're in perfect condition in the spring.
