I accept and respect the various comments regarding noxious fumes which are likely to emanate from galvanized metal exposed to BBQ heat temps. I simpy want to take the question one more step and ask if the science involved might indicate a rapid reduction of the noxious fumes after a few normal heating cycles? Once some of the zinc has 'burned off', or oxidized, or what ever transformation takes place, AND ... some smokey residue has built up on the plated metal, is it likely that the negative effects will be minimized greatly OR continue to spew out at the initial rate? This could also be accelerated by a high-energy propane burner applied to the surfaces. Any learned chemists or metallurgists out there willing to comment?
