If you left the lid off the grill and other internal parts would would get rusty a lot faster. A BBQ lid does both, although a real cover is better as it also protects the lid. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] adespoton@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 months ago Just like many people keep their cars parked outside, but the outside is protected better if it is usually stored under cover. The trick is to get a cover that doesn’t trap moisture inside. permalink fedilink source parent
