Best Way to Clean A BBQ Grill Grate

Well you just got done cooking out and now the real work starts - cleaning the barbeque grill.  When caring for your grill, there a number of details to know and remembering to do those things are just as essential.  Cleaning your grill can make it last longer.  So, I have come up with a short list of things you ought to be aware - whether your choosing a new barbeque grill, reading a barbeque grills review or wanting to know some stuff before you start cleaning the grill.

Here is what to do for the preservation and cleaning of your grill so the proper care can make the grill last a longer time.

1.  As soon your done cooking and your meals are removed, start using a barbeque grill brush for about just a few seconds to clean the grill grates and to remove any debris around the cooking area. If you have porcelain-coated grills be sure you only use a brass bristle brush, don't scrape the grill using a scraper since it may remove the porcelain coating.

2.  After the barbeque grill is switched off and it has cooled down spray a vegetable oil on the barbeque grill to ensure that is well covered.  It safeguards the grates from corrusion.  It's also wise to put vegetable oil on prior to each time you grill.  It doesn't only shield the grates, but any food, char, or particles will fall on to the flames or will turn to ash when the grill is switched on and preheated.

3.  Do not leave the grill for a long time after your done grilling - it is just like running a self-cleaning oven, it's fine to leave it on to burn off the extra foods or char off, however just don't neglect to switch it off, your going to put a great deal of stress on the components and just think of how many times you might of used your barbeque grill in the period you forgot about it and left the grill on.  Letting the grill to run a minute or two is satisfactory because your going to clean and spray it anyhow.  Additionally whenever you preheat the grill next it will burn away the excess.

5.  To help alleviate the cleanup process, hold on until the last few minutes just before your done cooking to use tomato based sauces - these kinds of sauces get thicker fast and turn out to be like a cement paste if left on too long. Marinade and baste the foods using vinegar, lemon or lime or soy type mixtures to help make clean up simpler.

6.  It is never suggested to use alcohol or beer as a technique of putting out a open fire or as the cleaning agent.  You are much better off consuming the beverage or using it in a recipe than wasting it, plus it might hurt the barbeque grill grates with corrusion.  Work with baking soda as a cleaning agent.  Just by keeping it nearby it will reduce the hassle of you hunting to locate all your barbeque grill accessories or if a fire erupts you can use it to put out the fire on the barbeque grill.

Chrome grills and grates are more complicated to maintain than a porcelain covered barbeque grill and have a tendency to corrode fairly easy.  Porcelain coated steel grills resist rusting and are easy to clean.  Porcelain coated Cast Iron has the benefits of cast iron wrapped in an easy to clean and maintain bundle. If you get grills with porcelain coatings make sure to only use a brass bristle brush to clean the grills as the brass is relatively soft and will Not scratch the porcelain off of the grills.

Cast iron grills hold the heat extremely well and warm very evenly, but should be kept seasoned with cooking food oil to prevent rusting. This can be a problem on a grill that is utilized and kept outdoors.  Stainless Steel grills will last a very long time, but don't hold the heat or sear as nicely as cast iron. If you are getting a grill with stainless steel grates make certain the grill rods are thick and heavy if you want to sear your meat or fish so that it is left medium rare in the center. If the majority of of what you do is cook is fairly slow (chicken, pork, roasts), then stainless steel would likely be an easy to retain, long lasting option.

The last suggestion I can provide is if you would like to reduce the inconvenience and duration of cleaning your grill, keep a carrier or bucket of all your barbecue utensils and cleaning products nearby.  Took some time for me to learn that lesson of having to search for everything after I was done cooking.  Now I have all my stuff in a neat little bucket.  Saves me about 15 minutes, that's the 15 minutes I could of already had the grill cleaned and ready to go for next time.
