Cleaning your grill is essential for the next grilling season. To make sure your barbecue is ready for use again next season, it's a good idea to give it a little wellness session. Here's what you need.

The days are getting shorter, the temperatures are dropping and the first frost is making itself felt. Grilling season is coming to an end for many of you. But before you put your barbecue away for the next few months, cleaning it properly is well worth the effort. The following products will help you look after your little darling.

Brushes

A barbecue brush is the ideal choice for removing stubborn dirt from the grill. Depending on the shape, you can get to every nook and cranny of your grill. This way, you'll get to the bottom of any encrusted remnants.

Cleaning products

Water alone isn't enough to clean your barbecue. So it's a good idea to rely on special cleaning products. You still have to choose which one you want to use. I'd advise you to get one that's suitable for greasy leftovers.

Cleaning accessories

The barbecue brush isn't always ideal for certain dirt. To clean the outside of the grill, I choose a sponge. The metal brush would be rather useless and would scratch the surface. The best way to get rid of stubborn grease residues is with a spatula. Chicken from three months ago doesn't stand a chance against its sharp edges.

Barbecue cover

To protect your little gem from garage dust, protecting it with a cover is a good idea. You can, of course, choose the one you like. A simple tarpaulin or even an old tarpaulin lying around is already enough. A suitable cover is often available with almost every model. These already have the right shape and are also more elegant optically.
