When a Grill Brush Fails, Use a Steam Cleaner

This is the heavy artillery. It takes a long time, so this is not something to use after every cook. I use mine once a year to deep clean my grill grates and to de-gunk the deflector plates on my pellet smokers. These steel plates lie directly below the cooking grates and can get mighty greasy. Steam does the trick. This steamer comes with plenty of attachments, including 2 extension wands, scrubbing heads, and a brass bristle brush, all for less than a hundred bucks. Also comes in handy in the kitchen and bathroom!

3) Tell us everything we need to know to help such as the type of cooker and thermometer. Dial thermometers are often off by as much as 50ยฐF so if you are not using a good digital thermometer we probably can’t help you with time and temp questions. Please read this article about thermometers.
