How to Clean a BBQ Grill

BullBbq Grill Grate’s are exciting. It is refreshing to cook on your backyard once in a while with the family gathering and chatting around.  As the summer has approached it is the time to enjoy the outdoor with some scrumptious food cooking on the BBQ. While BBQs are fun cleaning afterwards is a painful task. The grease clings to the grate and carbon residues gathered on the underside of the hood.

There is both right and wrong ways of cleaning a BBQ grill. The right way is simple and easy, while the wrong method usually leads to damaging the equipment, its aluminum coating and painting. Harmful chemicals leave harmful residue that affects the taste of the food. It also emits dangerous fumes that can cause several health complaints.

The best time to clean a BBQ when it is still hot. But it might not always be possible to clean right after you complete cooking.  In that case, just brush off the big particles with a brush.

To clean a gas BBQ all you need is a good cleaning brush, a bucket of soapy water, a sponge and another bucket to collect the debris. If the residues have got stuck on the grate you can take an old pie tin, fill it with water, place it on the oven and bring it to boil. The steam will loosen up the dirt. You can then easily clean it with a brush.

·       To begin cleaning, turn off all the burners and remove the propane tank.

·       Remove the grate and the metal plates underneath and put them in a bucket full of soapy water. Then clean the burner protectors the same way i.e. by rubbing them with a sponge.

·       Clean the inside of the hood with a sponge or scrapper.

·       Placed all the removed parts back in the oven.

After the cleaning the burner will look as good as new.
