Cleaning Your Outdoor Grill
Your outdoor grill may be the center of your outdoor kitchen during the summer months. If your grill has a side burner or two you make use of your outdoor grill as a replacement for your indoor oven and stove and move all the heat and odor of indoor cooking outside. You can bake and roast in your outdoor grill as easily as in the kitchen oven.
Cleaning your grill after each me is important because it will greatly extend existence of the grill and, perhaps much importantly, it will ensure that you get consistent performance from it. If the perfect 1 inch porterhouse is five minutes on each side in April you will need it to work as same five minutes in August a barbecue champ titles.
The outside cleans easily with normal household cleaners. Dish-washing detergent is an excellent grease cutter extended period of time mixed with hot water will probably be adequate to take care of the exterior of even your stainless steel grill looking like new. Do not hesitate to hose it off good rinsing. Water will not hurt the grill unless it is allowed to accumulate so if you don’t leave it sun-drenched to dry thoroughly give it a wipe down by having an absorbent towel.
After each use, and after the grill has cooled, remove the cast iron grates and provide them a brushing by using a grill cleaning scrub. You want to remove the grates before brushing because as well as debris falling on the burners or accumulating in the bottom of the grill pan. Wash them down with your dish washing detergent solution, give them a good rinse, dry, and as a finishing touch spray them lightly on both sides with cooking oil. If you do this diligently after each use the grates will never rust. Food will not stick to them either.
While the grill grates are removed spray the burners lightly with a grease cutting cleaner and gently brush them and wipe them off till the original color shines through. Give them a very light spray of vegetable oil too but wipe off any excess. Drippings and debris can rust through the thin metal burners in just one season without continuous maintenance. This is the best way in order to the replacement cost of new burners and to keep them performing consistently. Some grills will require a person remove a lava rock grate or drip shield before you can get to the burners. In these situations there should be substantially less drippings and debris on the burners after a few uses so really can just have to monitor the build away.
