Grilled! After completing her planting, Brigitte made a grilled lunch for herself and a friend. The gas grill was in sad shape. If your gas grill is in rough shape from a summer spent barbequing, do what Brigitte did to get her grill back in business.
Spring Cleaning for your Barbeque
- If you have a gas grill with a propane tank, check the tank’s expiration date. If it’s over ten years old, it cannot be refilled. However, you can buy a new tank. Just check out your local gas station or hardware store to see if they exchange propane tanks.
- Remove the briquettes, if they appear to be in bad shape. You can easily wash these out or buy replacement ones.
- Use a wet/dry vacuum to collect the ash at the bottom, then Scrub the entire inside of the grill.
- Check the condition of your burner. This, too, can be replaced. Make sure you have the model number of your barbeque when ou go to purchase a new one as burners come in many shapes and sizes. Check manufacturers suggested guidelines for installation.
- Attach your new gas tank. Remember to turn it off when the grill is not in use.
- Fire up with grill with a childproof lighter. Put the flame from the lighter in the lighting hole on the side of the grill and turn the burner on to “high.” The grill will come on right away.
- Slap some meat on that puppy and you’re good to go!
