Sender: Foodlore/Recipe Exchange From: "Coop, Carolyn A." Subject: cleaning the bbq grill Comments: To: EAT-L To: Multiple recipients of list EAT-L Status: RO The best way (read: easiest way) I've found is to spray the grill with oven cleaner and put it in a plastic garbage bag overnight. Be sure and tie the bag closed so the fumes stay inside. The next day take it out, wipe off and spray with the garden hose or take it inside and rinse well in the sink. This works with the off-brand oven cleaners as well as the name brand ones. Another alternative as simple and even less expensive is to put a cup of ammonia in a garbage bag, add the grill rack and close tightly. Wipe and rinse the next day in the same manner as above. (BTW, this is a great way to clean your broiler pan or oven racks, too.) Carolyn Coop ccoop@genicom.com
