How to Clean BBQ Grill with Vinegar Works
People who think vinegar is only useful as a salad dressing ingredient have never tried cleaning BBQ grill with vinegar. Vinegar works great for cleaning the grill and you don't have to worry about leaving any harmful residue behind that can get on your food and make you sick.
It only takes a few simple steps to clean your barbecue grill with vinegar. All you need is a spray bottle, lukewarm water, white table vinegar and a sheet of aluminum foil.
1. Pour two cups of vinegar into the spray bottle.
2. Add two cups of water on top of it.
3. Put the lid on the bottle and shake it vigorously to mix the water and vinegar together.
4. Fold the aluminum foil until you have a small square of approximately two inches across in each direction.
5. Spray the water/vinegar solution on the racks of the grill and the area above and underneath them to saturation.
6. Let the solution dry for 10 minutes.
7. While the grill dries, pour out any extra water/vinegar solution and refill the bottle with vinegar only.
8. Spray the vinegar on the foil and use it to scrub the grill's interior. No rinsing is required.
You can also use vinegar to clean the exterior of your grill. If you don't want it to smell like vinegar for days on end, it's best to go with the diluted solution. Instead of using aluminum foil to scrub, just use a standard cotton cloth. Spray the solution on the cloth instead of directly on the grill so it's easier to make sure you hit every area. Use a cotton swab to take care of any tight spots.
