Rust on Weber grill
The thread on recommended grills made me think of an actual
question. :-) I live just above Puget Sound. My Weber Silver A has rust spots on the handles, on the porcelain-coated CI grates, on the Flavorizer bars, and anything else you can name (not on the porcelain exterior). I don't have a covered area to place it, and nowhere to store it in an enclosed space (no garage or carport, for instance). I just tried smearing peanut oil on the worst spots on the grates, but haven't tried anything on the bars as yet. Do you folks have any suggestions for how I can deal with the rust and protect the grill? It's usually covered now, but the winds here blow the cover off frequently. Weber's only suggestion was to replaced all the rusted parts, which could be quite an expenditure. Thank you for any help, Desideria |

Why do you suggest lard in particular? I am actually curious here. Desideria |
