I always get caught in this cycle: Grill some burgers. Munch munch munch. Chase the kids with a bottle of sunscreen. Pick up some water-balloon bits. Clear up the dinner dishes. Fall into bed. A few days later, ready to fire up some salmon, I lift my grill lid only to discover cold, greasy charred bits still clinging to the grates. Yum?
Cleaning those grill grates after every cookout (or before my next one) is one of those annoying tasks that can kill our relaxed summer vibes. But keeping those grates clean ensures smoother cooking and cleaner flavors, so there’s no getting around it.
Enter the Grill Rescue Grill Brush. Although our resident grill expert, senior staff writer Lesley Stockton, was initially a skeptic (and so was I), this tool has since made our list of the best grill tools and accessories. Gone are the days when I open the grill to a greased memory of last week’s dinner. I kid you not, this dunkable brush makes cleaning my grill grates not just easy but also fun.
