Having the right knowledge about gas grill parts
for replacement will potentially save you a lot
of money if your outdoor Bar-B-Que ceases to work
properly. There are several key grill parts of a
BBQ that are more likely to fail than others, and
these include the burners, cooking grids, rock
grates, heat shields, and valves. There are also
several other parts, but these are the most
likely to fail.
3
Burners The burner is a hollow, tube-like
structure at the bottom of the BBQ grill that
provides the heat for cooking. Most grills only
have a single burner and oftentimes the burner
forms the shape of a capital H, but it can also
be oval, a figure eight, or other shapes. Some
outdoor Bar-B-Que grills, typically more
expensive models, have multiple burners that are
usually straight. They are comprised of gas inlet
holes in one or more key areas and outlet ports
along the length of the burner. Burners will
usually fail after about one to five years of
usage. The reason is that the drippings of meat
are devastating to burners as they contain
moisture and acids that cause the burners to rust
and corrode.
4
The cooking grid or grate This is the surface
where the food is actually cooked, which is among
the grill parts that often need replacement.
Chrome-plated steel grids are the cheapest and
shortest lasting of the grids. Porcelain-coated
cast iron and steel grates are mid-range types of
grids. Stainless steel grids are the most
expensive, but they will last the longest and
they typically come with a lifetime warranty.
5
Rock grates and heat shields Rock grates are
metal case grill parts that hold lava rocks or
ceramic briquettes while heat shields are a plate
or tent-like sheet of metal that covers the
burner. Heat shields have several other names and
are often found on newer models of the gas BBQ.
Both rock grates and heat shields share the same
purpose they both disperse heat from the burners
and protect the burners from drippings.
6
Valves Valves are the other grill parts that
will rust and begin to fail over time this is
because valves need to be exact copies of the
original, they can usually only be obtained
directly from BBQ grill showroom. Most of the
time when there is a valve failure the grill will
be thrown away and replaced.
7
There are many other grill parts that may need
replacing during the life of a BBQ gas grill.
Some of the other parts that are cheap to replace
include knobs, handles, gauges, and condiment
trays. Almost anything can be replaced. Buying
genuine replacement grill parts is a great way to
keep costs down while doing grill repair and
extending its usable life.
