GAS bbq...

You need to keep the grills protected with oil when storing. Mines a few years old but can go rusty if they get damp. I clean before use and then oil cold before heating. After that oil the meat is best.

I use one of the pump oil sprays and refill with veg oil.

Just bought one of those sprayers you use for star San. Not a good one. More a water pistol than a mister and I’ve spayed oil everywhere! Smells like a chippy!

Or just now and then?

Steel brush, wiping, oiling, wiping, oil, food. Unlike a carbon steel pan in the house, my grill takes heavy scrubbing and removes coating/seasoning.
Spraying with oil works and I've done it too because it's convenient. There's a lot of missing the target with spraying though. A kitchen cloth (not terry cloth) dipped in oil and then wiped on the grill works. Paper towel does too but it's flimsy and likely to disintegrate.

I use rice bran oil, it has the highest smoking point after avocado oil, which has a price like gold.

Nice tip! I’m going to pick some up later and give it a go tonight.

Do people season the grills with cooking oil before use and again after cleaning with each use? Or just now and then?

I cut a spud in half spray it with oil and rub that across the grill, stops the food sticking.

Sounds like a top tip, I’ll try that later.

I used to use half an onion. The key to food not sticking is to get the grill hot enough.

Where are the mods when you need them?

More to the point how are you making the curries on that

Good point! I'm going to frankenstein my existing gas bbq into an outside cook area as the side burner is fine. I'm going to remove the worn out gas grill and fit a work top/prep area. I'll also get rid of the lid. I can then cover it all. My new kettle will fit alongside nicely.

We are always watching.

I love my CG because I can smoke or grill both direct and indirect. CG also has a lot of capacity, which is another thing I like about it. If you don't intend to cook a lot of food at once, a Weber smoker device is another option you might want to consider if you don't plan on cooking a lot of food at once.
