unhook the tank for the winter if you wont be using it. Everything is fine outside, you should get a cover just to keep it clean and everything.

Man. I thought this was a given!

BTW: Wood or charcoal only. Unless camping, then a propane stove is acceptable for making coffee or something.

I thought you were talking about THROWING a BBQ party. Sorry.

Disconnect propane. Move tank under a shelter but NOT indoors. Make sure all valves are closed, and use (not kidding here) condoms to cover any connections.

Put the grill where you want, but the propane stays outside! I just keep mine covered and leave it outside.
