Dirty Grilling

Hold it right there! Before we even begin to talk about meat, we need to get your grill into tip-top condition. One of the easiest ways to mess up a barbecue is to cook with a dirty grill. Congealed fat, ash and dust quickly build up on a dirty grill, and none of them sound very good to eat, do they? The best way to maintain a clean grill is to clean it when you are finished cooking, and it has cooled down a little. Oils will come away much easier at this point. Some things that are great for grills are wire brushes, newspapers and even half a raw onion.
