You should burn in a new gas grill before using it for the first time to remove production residues. The available fats, oils and possibly plastic residues are unhealthy and change the taste of your food.
Burn in the gas grill - that's how it works
Not only to remove any production residues, a new gas grill must be burned in before the first use. This measure also creates a patina on the material of the grill. This layer protects your grill from rust.
- Oil the grill thoroughly. It is best to use rapeseed oil or sunflower oil. Both oils are very heat-resistant.
- The temperature plays a crucial role. To avoid damaging the material, slowly burn in your gas grill. This means that you start with the lowest level of the burner.
- With multiple burners switch them on one after the other at intervals of about one minute. Then slowly increase the temperature until all burners are running at the highest level.
- Let the grill run at the highest setting for about 30 minutes.
- Then slowly turn the temperature down again.
- After this process, the grill is burned in and can be used.
Burn in accessories: grillage and grill plate
Grill plates and a grill made of cast iron, like iron pans, must be burned in before use. The resulting patina also protects the metal here.
- Highly heatable oil is also used here. Brush the accessories thoroughly with sunflower or rapeseed oil. Both oils tolerate high heat well.
- Then put the grill accessories on the grill and heat the cast iron as much as possible.
- As soon as smoke forms, remove the grill accessories from the grill and wipe them briefly. Important: Do not forget to put on gloves so that they do not burn yourself.
- If you repeat this process two to three times, the grill accessories are also perfectly baked. Then nothing stands in the way of the first barbecue evening with the new gas grill.
