Grilling Tips from Miguel with Cooking with Fire

  1. Wear warm clothing: Staying warm is key to being focused and crafting a delicious meal.
  2. Use propane for grilling: Propane is quick and easy to set up, which allows you to get your grill ready in no time.
  3. Keep extra propane on hand: Cold weather means longer cooking times, so having extra fuel ensures you're prepared.
  4. Preheat your grill: Take the time to warm up your grill in cold temperatures to help ensure the best cooking results.
  5. Prep indoors: Prepping your food indoors makes the process easier and keeps you warm.
  6. When not in use, keep your grill covered: A covered grill helps keep your grill free from snow.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where Should You Store Your Grill in the Winter?
If possible, store your grill in a storage shed or enclosed area during winter months if it is not being used. This will protect it and your propane tank from snow, ice, and cold winds. If the grill is being kept outside, protect it with a grill cover.

 
How Do You Prepare Your Outdoor Grill for Winter?
First, start with a comprehensive cleaning. Ensure all extra components are removed and cleaned separately. Next, if your grill will be kept inside, disconnect it from your propane tank.
