After grilling, it’s a good idea to give the grill grids a cleaning. Here is a simple and relatively easy way to attend to it. First wait for the grill to cool some what, so you don’t burn yourself.
Then here’s the trick, using a course stainless steel scouring pad, a pair of long tongs and a spritzer bottle of water. Clamp the pad in the tongs, using a glove, spritz the grids with the water and scrub with the pad. Spritz – scrub, Spritz – Scrub etc. and you will quickly get back to the grid metal. It sounds much worse then it is. If the grids are really bad use a scraper or stiff brush, scrape off the heavy residue.
By the way if you don’t own a pair of tongs, you should have them anyway as they are good to move the coals around and absolutely a must to turn a steak. Piercing with a fork is no good it lets the juices run out!
