I. Advantages of Weathering Steel BBQ Grills

Aesthetic value: the art of time

Corten steel bbq grill will naturally form a unique rust-colored protective layer over time. This rust layer not only protects the steel itself, but also gives it a deep and steady beauty. This unique rust-red color is like a work of art painted by nature on the steel plate, turning your outdoor space into a wild art palace.

Durability: Stand the test of time

Metal bbq grill is famous for its corrosion resistance. It can withstand wind, rain, sun and rain in harsh outdoor environments without rusting or corroding. Whether it is the flame roasting during high-temperature barbecue or the erosion of rain and snow, Corten bbq grill can easily cope with it and is not easily damaged during long-term use. This means that you don’t need to replace the grill frequently, saving maintenance costs and time. You don’t have to worry about frequent maintenance and care, just enjoy the fun of barbecue.

II. Determine your Grilling needs before Choosing a BBQ Grill

1. Barbecue Style

Barbecue is not only a cooking method, but also a lifestyle. Understanding different types of barbecue methods will help you clarify your barbecue preferences and choose the most suitable barbecue grill.

Direct grilling: This is the most common barbecue method. The food is placed directly on the grill and heated directly by charcoal or gas. This method is suitable for quick cooking, such as grilled steaks and chicken wings.
Indirect grilling: The food is not directly in contact with the heat source, but is cooked by the heat around the heat source. This method is suitable for foods that take a long time to cook, such as roasted whole chickens and roasted vegetables, which can keep the food moist and taste.
Smoking: The smoke produced by wood or charcoal is used to smoke the food, giving it a unique smoky flavor. This method is suitable for making smoked meat, smoked fish, etc.

2. Space planning for outdoor kitchens

The size of the space in the outdoor kitchen is an important factor to consider when choosing a corten barbecue grill. A suitable barbecue grill size can meet your barbecue needs without taking up too much space and affecting the overall layout of the outdoor kitchen.

Small barbecue grills: Suitable for outdoor kitchens with limited space, such as balconies or terraces. They are usually compact in design and easy to move and store.
Medium charcoal bbq grills: Suitable for medium-sized outdoor kitchens and can meet the barbecue needs of family gatherings. They usually have sufficient cooking area and storage space.
Large BBQ grills: Suitable for large outdoor kitchens or professional barbecue venues. They are usually equipped with multiple grilling areas and advanced features such as temperature control systems, built-in lighting, etc.

3. Functional requirements
