  • Grill brush
  • Stainless-steel wipes
  • Whisk broom
  • Bucket
  • Dish soap
  • Foil
  • Paper towels


Know Your Terrain

Proper grill maintenance will minimize the risk of a grease fire, improve the performance of your grill and provide a clean aesthetic for your grill mastery. While there are some variances for cleaning charcoal and gas grills, start with the basics:

• Wearing work gloves, remove grill grates, racks and pans and set them in a bucket of hot water and dish soap. It is best to start this process while the grill is still slightly warm, but ensure all dials are off and the propane tank is disconnected.
• Cover heating elements with foil and use the grill brush to vigorously scrub the underside of the hood and inside walls of the grill and wipe down with a wet paper towel.
• Remove the components from the bucket and scrub down with the grill brush before replacing inside the grill.
