- Anyone with a grill and a patio is
raring to get started on outdoor summer
cooking fun. Before you invite the gang
over for a feast, use the following
timeline and tips to get prepared so your
party planning will be easy and
smooth.
The weekend before:
Get
your yard ready by cleaning lawn
furniture, deck and patio. Trim weeds
and mow the lawn.
Shop
for these essential barbeque
ingredients: ketchup, FRENCH'S mustard,
relish, mayonnaise, chips, soft drinks,
paper plates, plastic cups and
utensils, grilling tools and
briquettes.
Clean
your grill.
The
day before:
Buy
meat and other fresh ingredients.
Prepare
salads and desserts.
Party
day:
Set
up outdoor games.
Buy
ice and place in coolers.
Set
out appetizers and snacks before guests
arrive.
Cleaning
the grill may be your least favorite
barbeque chore. Using an oven cleaner like
EASY-OFF makes grill cleaning easier and
can help you get the job done quicker.
Wear
long rubber gloves while cleaning your
grill.
Remove
racks from grills. Place them on
newspaper on a non-wood surface. Remove
any remaining food by brushing the
racks with a stiff brush.
Hold
the can away from your face and spray
from a distance of 9-12 inches. Allow
the foam to work for at least 20
minutes.
Wipe
the racks clean with a heavy duty
scrubbing sponge, rinsing frequently.
After drying, wipe again with a clean
sponge.
To
clean the grill window, apply EASY-OFF
to a wet scrubbing sponge. Wipe the
glass surface vigorously to remove
soil. Avoid contact with the grill
housing.
Wipe
clean with a wet sponge. After drying,
wipe again with a clean sponge.
DO
NOT USE EASY-OFF ON GRILL EXTERIOR.
Wash the exterior with mild soap and
water on a scrubbing sponge to remove
white spots caused by oxidation.
Rinse
well with water.
