How to clean a grill grate
Grease, dirt and grime can build up on the grill over time, making the grill an unsanitary surface for cooking fresh food.
Although deep cleansing in a short amount of time may seem almost impossible, using a few key ingredients is guaranteed to speed up the process.
Baking soda, white vinegar, and lemon can all be used to revitalize a dirty, charred grill, and that's how they're used for best results.

Make a white vinegar spray
At this point you can turn off the heat and let the grill cool down.
Make a vinegar solution with equal amounts of water and white vinegar, then pour it into an empty spray bottle.
Spray the acidic liquid liberally on the grates, shelves and surfaces of your grill and let sit for half an hour.
Acetic acid breaks down dirt and food particles and removes stubborn odors lurking inside the appliance.
Rub with fresh lemons
Lemon can be used for more than just grilling.
In fact, it's the perfect polish for a clean grill and lid.
Cut three fresh lemons in half to get six juicy halves.
Rub lemons upside down on cooking grates, shelves and lids for a fresh scent and brilliant shine.
The antibacterial action of citric acid leaves your grill clean and safe to use, while the fresh scent neutralizes lingering white vinegar odors.
