Having an outdoor space where you can host a gathering with friends or just enjoy a quiet night on your own can be a great addition to your home. But having an outdoor space with a built-in gas grill can come with some added maintenance.

Once you have your gas grill, it’s important to know what goes into the maintenance and cleaning your grill. Today, we will review the steps to cleaning and maintaining your grill for enjoyment all summer long and for years to come.

Outdoor grills are generally easy to use and maintain, making them perfect for any outdoor living space. A built-in grill can contain a variety of added features like countertops, a warming oven, rotisserie and smoker units to give you many ways to prepare food and keep everything ready for your guests.

When it does come time for maintenance, there are several things to do. To start, you want to clean the grates after every use. You should do this while the grill is still warm and use a wire brush that helps to remove any residue from food away. You can wipe down the rest of the grill and the countertops with a damp cloth to keep those areas clean as well.

That cleaning will at least keep your grill looking good for several uses, but depending on how much you use it, you will need to do more intense cleaning at times. When doing this, turn off the natural gas for the grill and then use a solution of vinegar and water with a washcloth to clean grease and other juices from the grill grates and other metal surfaces on the built-in gas grill. When you do this, there is no rinsing that is needed. This kind of maintenance keeps everything clean for longer periods of time and helps to take away some of the buildup that occurs from cooking multiple times on the grill.

Once a year, you should deep clean the grill. This is where you disassemble the components of the grill and use a barbecue cleaner to deeply clean the cooking surfaces and remove more than just residue from cooking from the parts. This will help reduce other debris like rust and other corrosion. You also want to check the fuel lines for any cracks or bends when you do your deep cleaning of the grill.
