Hopefully you’ve given your barbecue a thorough scrub down before you put it away for winter. But if you’re like many people who have to store their outdoor cooking equipment in a shed or outbuilding, your barbecue could be sitting in a damp place over the winter, creating the perfect environment for grill mold and rust to grow.
It’s best to store your barbecue indoors if you can, but if that isn’t possible, a garage or shed that’s out of direct sunlight should be ideal. And if you can’t afford to keep your barbecue in the house, make sure you invest in a quality cover for it that will help prevent moisture and mould build-up.
A great way to prevent grill mold is to give your barbecue a good scrub before you store it away, then spray it with cooking oil. It doesn’t have to be an excessive amount – just a light coating should do the trick. This helps reduce rust and prevents condensation, which is a key cause of mildew.
For added protection, you should also consider coating your barbecue in lard or a high-quality food-grade fat to add an extra layer of defense against mould, rust and other potential contaminants. But before you coat your barbecue, remember that it’s a good idea to check with the manufacturer first as some products may be unsafe for use on your specific barbecue. Also, a thick coating of fat can damage your barbecue’s finish.
