A question for you guys who own gas grills that get alot of snow and cold weather. If I leave mine outside full of gas without a cover on it will it be ok. I dont want it to be ruined or have busted gas line or anything like that. Will propane freeze? Thanks.

I grew up in PA and we left ours out and used it all year.

No problem. I would advocate a cover over the grill to make it last longer tho. Remember, all those big propane tanks stay outside all winter.

A cover will do a lot to extend the life of the grill.

Real men use REAL WOOD charcoal. Although, briquettes are FAR better than gas, its only Royal Oak natural wood chunk charcoal for me. Complemented by my selection of different wood chunks soaked in water of course.

Yep. Five years of AZ sun has just about killed my grill?

I use a cover and I live in the Great White North, I do suggest keeping a spare tank around though, you may find that your grill is harder to light when it hits -30C or colder. At least that has been my experience.



The cover is strictly to keep my grill alive.
