BBQ Grill Mat for Under Grill - Recommendations?
« on: August 28, 2017, 04:35:00 PM »

Anyone recommend a grill mat for placing under their pellet grills?  The used Blazin that I bought last year is dripping grease on my patio.  I would prefer it dripped on some sort of mat.  Ideally, I could spray the mat with a hose to clean if necessary.  This is not a mandatory requirement though.

I was looking at our treadmill a few days ago (we use it as a clothes rack) and noticed the heavy rubber mat under it.  That mat is supposed to catch the shoe-sole dust that wears off as we accumulate treadmill miles (fat chance).  Anyway, I think that would make a great mat for under a pit.

It came with the treadmill so I don't know where to direct you.

I got some fake turf, Lowes or the like, about .60/sqft, I got about 4x6, should have got about 12 x 10...It washes off great, but next time I would invest in the literally heavier weight stuff as the wind blows this around to much.

What ever's cheapest with an absorbent type of material on top and a hardish rubber type bottom.

My pit doesn't leak much at all, so a 10 dollar welcome mat at Fred Meyer works great.

A while back we put a beautiful outdoor carpet on an old cedar deck.  In just a few summer months there was algae growing on the wood under the carpet.

We threw it out and the sun quickly killed the algae.  So I'm thinking that whatever I put under my pit will need to be rolled up and stored when I'm not smoking.

That may not be a concern for concrete but I wouldn't bet on it.

I've used these at competitions that required a drip tray/mat.

About five years ago I purchased one of these mats called a deck protector.  I've a composite deck and it works as promised. The material is very stiff and heavy and was great for my gas grill.
