Maintenance of Barbecues and Parties
When making a barbecue, the most important thing, in addition to the dish itself, is a grill. Because it is important, anyone who owns a barbecue grill should be aware of how little maintenance is required for a successful barbecue. Caring for a grill (also known as barbecue maintenance) can add years to the life of your grill, as well as tons of memories. Whether it’s a family reunion or a barbecue party, keeping a grill clean and in good condition should always be one of the top five priorities in addition to the obvious: cooking meats, alcohol, and of course, friends and family. . Who wants to cook on a broken barbecue grill?
Cleaning your grill, whether it’s propane or charcoal, doesn’t actually affect the cleaning process. Cleaning the grill requires a wire grill brush. Some believe that other items are needed to clean a grill, such as sponges, dishwashing liquid, steel wool pads, and dry baking soda, but I personally feel that once a fire is started, the fire burns everything and makes the Brush With Wire Grill Brush so much easier and effortless – just watch your fingers! Ideally, you’ll want to clean your grill after you’ve finished grilling. Totally understandable if you don’t because you were getting so excited with your friends. If you go crazy with your friends and don’t clean the grill, then the next time you fire up the grill just grab your wire brush and clean the grill. If you’re going to grill something, it’s also not a bad idea to use cooking spray. Once you’re done grilling, another BBQ maintenance tip would be to put up a grill cover…let the grill cool down first!
Barbecue maintenance is important because the best-maintained barbecue grill will last much longer and never cause a party foul. Speaking of party crowds, let’s talk super rad BBQ parties. We’ll be talking about themed BBQ parties like Southern BBQ, Hawaiian, Halloween, and any kind of themed party. Grilled meat goes well at 2 am when you feel like eating. When discussing a certain topic, everyone is encouraged to dress accordingly and since it’s a BBQ…eat the part too. For example, a Hawaiian-themed barbecue would have traditional Hawaiian food on the menu, such as:
– Beef, Chicken or Pork Ribs
– Shrimp, Lobster, Crab, Etc.
– Tuna or whatever you prefer
– Fruits: bananas, pineapple, mangoes, papaya, limes, strawberries, etc.
– Vegetables: onions, mushrooms, zucchini, chives, tomatoes, etc.
Live the Hawaiian life and feast on all these ingredients or go caveman and catch the meat sweats at 2 am… it’s your BBQ party, go crazy with it! As in any theme party, generally people play the part of the subject. For a Hawaiian themed party, you should have torches, a bar, inflatable or real palm trees, button down Hawaiian shirts, lei’s, hula skirts, patio lights and lamps and much more. Those are just a few ideas, get creative with them!
A barbecue should be a party regardless of whether someone is cooking for themselves or for a large group of people. You are outside around a fire… mine too put on some music and have fun. When it comes to grilling and party maintenance, these two go hand in hand, so don’t let a sloppy grill ruin your party! Boom! So have fun with friends and family, but don’t forget to maintain your BBQ grill!
