Grill Tip of the Week # 1


There is nothing more frustrating then opening your grill and getting ready to put food on and seeing that there is still gook from your last BBQ sitting on the grill. Taking a few steps between BBQs can really make a difference in how your grill looks and how your food tastes.



I find it good policy to at least once a year to completely clean out your grill, this will reduce the amount of smoke that develops when you are grilling as well as keep any foreign flavors from your grill out of your food.

1. Get a good wire brush
2. At the end of your BBQ while the grill is still warm, brush down the grates to remove stuck on food before it has a chance to cool and get really stuck on.
3. If you have a cast iron grate, once its completely clean, take a paper towel and dip it in some oil to coat the grate and keep it in good shape. With cast iron grates, you have to keep a close eye on making sure it doesn't develop rust.
