whoopazz Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Your grill that is. I know, I know, it depends on amount of use and fat content, but I feel like I need to clean the grill every month or so. How much crap buildup is good for flavor and when is it over the top?

Big F'n Dave Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 I clean the grates several times a year. The whole grill? Never. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scare Tactics Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 I do a full cleaning once per season, where i rip the grill apart and get it looking as close to brand new as possible... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh B Tool Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 (edited) The biggest factor here, charcoal, gas, egg, smoker etc. is the amount and frequency of use. Scrape the grill everytime right before adding your new kill. Meaning when its hot and then falls into the heat to burn and then enhance the overall taste. Now if you are a strictly seasonal griller(I grill when it friggin snows) ala warm seasons and then don't take care of your fire pit and let it get wet and nasty then yes you should clean the whole deal with plain old high pressure H2O each spring. If a year round griller then there really isn't a need to clean anything but the actual grilling surface because you are ruining hours of "seasoning" which only helps the process of good grillin'. Think of it as your favorite cast iron skillet. You "season" it, but never "scrub" it clean. Edited September 4, 2006 by Hugh B Tool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
