The best time to clean the grill grates is
immediately after cooking is completed and
after turning off the flame. Wear a barbeque
mitt to protect your hand from the heat and
steam. Dip a brass bristle barbeque brush in
cold tap water and scrub the hot grate. Dip
the brush frequently in the bowl of water. Steam,
created as water contacts the hot grill, assists
the cleaning process by softening any food
particles. The food particles should fall into the
drip tray. If the grill is allowed to cool before
cleaning, cleaning will be more difficult.
For harder baked-on food particles, remove the
grill grate and soak for about one hour in warm
water. Lightly scrub with a Scotch Brite
®
pad.
The grill grates may also be cleaned in
a dishwasher.
