Introdução

Extreme weather expedites the normal wear-and-tear of the Broil-King 3 burner BBQ lid heat indicator. Since it is an outdoor grill, it is susceptible to damage from being exposed to harsh elements including rain, snow, wind, cold, and excessive heat. Prolonged exposure can cause the gauge to fail, reducing the usability of the BBQ. Replacing the heat indicator creates a few ounces of recyclable trash rather than the 3 foot by 4 foot BBQ itself. This quick fix is well worth the cost savings in many ways.
