Tipp des Tages : 06 September

Clean the barbecue


It's the end of the summer but the days are still beautiful enough to have a barbecue. Then, of course, it must be cleaned.
We begin by spraying the grids with a product to clean the oven and rub with a sponge before rinsing.
We can also put them in the dishwasher.
The inside of the grill can also be degreased with the product for the oven.
The burners can be cleaned by soaking in vinegar before rinsing and drying them.
