Whether you are pulling out your grill for the first cookout of the year or if it’s always grilling season at your house, it’s important to know how to clean a grill. In this guide, we will talk you through a step-by-step guide for a quick clean-down that you can use between uses. Pretty dull we know, but a clean grill will perform better and last longer than a dirty one.

After Every Use

We call it the maintenance clean… this is just a quick clean that should be done after every grilling session. Nobody wants their next steak to taste like last week's burnt chorizo, right?

Step 1:

Start by letting your grill cool down completely. This can take a few hours, so if you’ve been grilling in the evening, it might be best to clean it the next day.

Step 2: 

Once it’s safe to touch, use a wire brush to scrub the grates. Remove any leftover food bits and grease.

Step 3: 

Use a dustpan and brush to remove fully cooled embers from the bottom of your grill.

Step 4: 

Mix dish soap with warm water and use a cloth or sponge to wipe down the grill’s surfaces, removing any remaining grime and grease. Let it air dry or wipe with a clean cloth.

Give the grills a good rub down with paper towels dipped in rapeseed oil this will prevent rust as well as giving your cooking surface a proper clean.

Step 6: 

Use a sponge, soap, and hot water to clean the outside of your grill, keeping it looking new and well-maintained. Put a cover over your grill to protect it until your next use.

 

Deep Clean...

A deep clean might seem daunting, but it’s crucial for maintaining your Asado grill. Carry out a deep clean at least once a year, or once every couple of months if you use your grill regularly. For a step-by-step guide, check out our "How to Deep Clean Your Asado Grill" guide.
