Why would anybody want to know how to properly clean a bbq grill? Well, if you own or sell the big expensive kinds, you already know the answer to that question. However, even if you realize that failure to maintain a bbq grill properly can waste a lot of time and money, what you might not know is that the process can be quite easy. Whether you own one yourself or are trying to sell one to a consumer, these tips will add value to and extend the life of any barbecue grill without adding frustration and effort.
Getting a simple cover for the barbecue grill in question is a no-brainer. If you don't have a cover for your grill, in a year or less you won't have a grill, you'll have a pretty rust sculpture instead. However, a cover does more than just protect the grill from rain and rust. It also protects said grill from excess dirt and mud, eliminating the need for constant cleaning.
When cleaning the outside of the grill you may want to be a bit careful to keep it looking good. Again, always use a cover on the grill. To clean it only use mild dishwashing liquid and a soft cleaning rag to clean the visible areas. For stubborn dirt or mud, a plastic scrubbie works well without damaging the finish too much.
Cleaning the grills themselves often counts as one of the most miserable maintenance jobs associated with any BBQ grill. However, it doesn't have to be too messy. Simply place the grill components in a black plastic bag with a cup of ammonia, seal with a twist tie, and leave them out in the sun for several hours. After pouring the ammonia off down a drain, hose off the grills. The vast majority of gunk and dirt will come right off, leaving the grills reasonably clean. Many BBQ gift sets, which frequently include forks, thermometers, and spatulas, will also feature grill scrubbing equipment.
Finally, dry everything off with a hand towel, and enjoy a beautiful barbecue grill that will look like new for years to come!
