Answer 1

Although I am normally a person who uses vinegar and baking soda for most tough cleaning jobs, I find for my BBQ the Zep Stainless Steel cleaner is so much better.  Our grill is used almost every night during the summer, it has a side burner and grease and food particles splatter all over the place sometimes cooking in place on the metal.  Zep removes the grease without smearing, you just spray it on let it foam up to loosen cooked on foods and wipe it off.  It leaves a residue which is food safe and makes it easier to simply wipe away grease and food so that I really only have to do a heavy duty application once a week.  Our grills and cooking surfaces inside are cast iron so we just use a metal brush before and after every cooking and use a half of a lemon coated in salt to get burned on food off.

Answer 3

wipe it with a damp cloth and white vinegar, it will take care of finger marks , stains and grease. And on top of that it 's also environment friendly.

In Greece we use lemon to clean our barbecues. Cut a lemon in the middle and grid the steel with its kernel. You need to try a lot, but it worths it! I promise your BBQ will shine as much as a new one!!
