6 MICHELIN STAR BBQ CLEANING TIPS

Summer has finally arrived and it’s the perfect weather for a BBQ. After you have wined and dined your guests, the last thing you want to do is clean the it. So, Michelin star chef Steve Smith, formely of Bohemia in Jersey and now at The Latymer, has provided his tips on how to clean your grill as easily and as quickly as possible. Not only is it important to clean your BBQ regularly to prevent food poisoning, it also prolongs the live of it. 

Preheat the Grill

Clean the grill just after preheating it, this way the grease and food will scrape off easily.

Grab an Onion

To remove all of the grit, place a half cut onion on the end of a fork and rub onto a hot grill.

Prevent rusting

Clean your grill with soapy water after cooking, then rinse and dry immediately and rub vegetable oil across the grill to prevent rust.

Don’t throw water

If you are using a charcoal grill, then do not throw cold water over the coals after cooking as this will create a mess!

Crack open a Beer

Pour half a bottle of beer over a heated BBQ then rub with newspaper for a clean grill. Then you enjoy the rest of the beer for yourself!

Create a Paste

Mix baking soda and water to make a paste then cover the grill in it with a wire brush. Let it dry for 15 minutes then wipe the grill with a dry cloth and place it over the hot coals for 15 minutes to burn off any remains before cooking the food.
