Why Invest in a Quality BBQ Cover?

UK weather can be harsh on outdoor cooking equipment. Rain, frost, UV exposure, and temperature fluctuations cause rust, fading, and component degradation. A quality BBQ cover protects your investment, extends your grill's lifespan, and keeps it ready to use without extensive pre-cook cleaning.

Whether you own a premium kamado like the Big Green Egg, a Weber gas grill, or a charcoal BBQ, the right cover provides essential weather protection. Brand-specific covers offer tailored fits with features like ventilation panels, reinforced seams, and secure fastening systems designed for UK outdoor conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions*

Why do I need a BBQ cover if I store my grill in a shed or garage?
Even in covered storage, a BBQ cover protects against dust, moisture, and accidental knocks that can damage surfaces. UK sheds and garages often have condensation issues, and a quality cover creates a protective barrier against humidity that causes rust and corrosion. Covers also keep your BBQ clean and ready to use without pre-cook cleaning.
What's the difference between universal and brand-specific BBQ covers?
Brand-specific covers are tailored to exact BBQ dimensions and features, providing a snug fit with cutouts for handles, thermometers, and side tables. Universal covers come in standard sizes (small, medium, large, XL) and work across multiple BBQ types. Fitted covers generally offer better protection, whilst universal covers provide flexibility if you change BBQs.
How do I measure my BBQ for the right cover size?
Measure your BBQ's width, depth, and height with the lid closed, including any side tables or shelves you want covered. Add 5-10cm to each dimension for comfortable fitting. Check the manufacturer's size chart and choose the next size up if you're between sizes. A slightly loose cover is better than one that's too tight.
Are BBQ covers waterproof or just water-resistant?
Most quality BBQ covers are water-resistant rather than fully waterproof, using treated polyester or heavy-duty vinyl that repels water whilst allowing moisture to escape. Fully waterproof covers can trap condensation underneath, leading to rust. Look for covers with ventilation panels that prevent moisture build-up whilst keeping rain out.
How long do BBQ covers typically last in UK weather?
Quality BBQ covers last 2-4 years with proper care in UK conditions. UV exposure, wind, and temperature fluctuations affect lifespan. Premium covers with UV-resistant coatings and reinforced seams last longer. Replace covers when you notice fading, tears, or reduced water resistance. Storing covers indoors during winter extends their life.
Can I leave my BBQ cover on all year round?
Yes, but remove it periodically to check for moisture build-up and let your BBQ air out. In winter, covers protect against frost, snow, and ice. In summer, UV-resistant covers prevent sun damage. After rain, shake off excess water and ensure the cover is dry before securing it to prevent mould and mildew.
Do BBQ covers prevent rust and corrosion?
Quality covers significantly reduce rust by protecting against rain, snow, and moisture. However, covers alone don't prevent rust—you also need to clean your BBQ regularly, apply protective oil to cast iron grates, and ensure proper ventilation. Covers work best as part of a complete maintenance routine.
What features should I look for in a quality BBQ cover?
Look for heavy-duty, UV-resistant fabric (at least 300D polyester), reinforced seams and stress points, ventilation panels to prevent condensation, secure fastening systems (drawstrings, buckles, or Velcro), and handles for easy removal. Water-resistant coating and a warranty indicate quality construction.
Can I use the same cover for gas and charcoal BBQs?
Universal covers work for both gas and charcoal BBQs if the dimensions match. However, gas BBQs often have side burners and control panels that benefit from custom-fit covers, whilst charcoal BBQs and kamados have unique shapes. Check the cover's compatibility and measure carefully for the best fit.
How do I clean and maintain my BBQ cover?
Brush off loose dirt and debris regularly. For deeper cleaning, use mild soap and warm water with a soft brush, rinse thoroughly, and air dry completely before storing. Never machine wash or use harsh chemicals, which damage water-resistant coatings. Store covers in a dry place when not in use to extend their lifespan.
Do Big Green Egg and kamado BBQs need special covers?
Yes, kamado-style BBQs like Big Green Egg have unique dome shapes that require specially designed covers. Standard rectangular covers won't fit properly. Big Green Egg covers are tailored to each EGG size (Mini, Small, Medium, Large, XLarge) and nest configurations, providing proper protection for ceramic surfaces.
