Expert Answer

To clean sticky residue off a gas stove, use a zero-grade metal scrubber and dishwashing soap. Alternatively, professional-grade acids can be used to remove stubborn residues by applying them for 30 minutes before scrubbing them off with a metal scrubber. A butter knife can be used to remove thick hard grease, as I won’t scratch the surface.

Question

Can you run hose through your grill to clean?

Community Answer

NO! Do not do that, it will ruin your grill. Cut a lemon in half, stick it on a sharp utensil and rub it on the top of the grill of where you cook. Scrubbing the grates with a balled-up piece of aluminum foil works as well.

Question

How do you clean the charcoal stones (white stones)?

Community Answer

There is no need to clean them. They work fine and actually help to heat up the other coals.
