I use Simple Green Concentrate mixed at about 65%/35% Concentrate to Water ratio that works great for grease clearing on my grilles and smokers. Weber also makes a good grate grill cleaner for heavy deposits. Simple green leaves no deposits and is biodegradable, inexpensive and available everywhere. Thanks for your videos-always informative and beneficial.

I just cleaned the pellet box which was full of carbon. Soak in Hoppes #9 gun cleaner for 6 hours. scrape with old 1/4" chisel. 99% came off. Recover #9 for future use after filtering with coffee filter. Or us use it on your weapon. Prevention is aluminum foil lining 3 sides of pellet box which will last 2/3 smokes.

@paulsherstobitoff5215 Год назад

Thanks CJ. I am getting a real sticky goopy build up around the pellet box and it just doesn't want to respond to my wire brush or general vinegar and water...also not to a good grill cleaner. I use both Ninja pellets and Weber pellets. The pellet box lid at times just doesn't want to open and I'm afraid I'll break it off forcing it to open to clean it even a little. Any suggestions?

@CookingWithCJ Год назад

Try bar keepers friend. Soak it in that. Might cut through the sticky stuff.

@paulsherstobitoff5215 Год назад

@@CookingWithCJ I found the culprit to be Lumber Jack/Weber pellets, it seems. I had switched to Weber Apple pellets a month ago and I guess they have more resin, pitch and tar. After cleaning the grill I've used it a few times with absolutely no sticky, goopy residue build up using Ninja/Bear Mountain pellets..

First and foremost I’m a subscriber and your videos are super helpful. It’s not that you talk so much more than you repeat yourself at least 3 or more times. It’s somewhat annoying but I’ve just learned to fast forward or just read the comments down below. As a video editor I would suggest cutting out some of the redundancy. Will definitely make your videos better, cleaner, and a tad shorter. Again it’s just a friendly suggestion. Grill on!

Got time to take on editing for me? I need an editor, just can’t afford ones that know what they’re doing. And I don’t want to ship it out to India or whatever.

@susanwiggins3708 Год назад

Thank you Cj! This was so helpful! My only question is that we just got our grill and we preheated it to try it. We didn’t end up cooking in it after that ..long story..lol. However after the preheat cooled down we went out to see what it looked like on the inside and it looked like it was used for food..much like your cleaning video. It it is brand new and we only tried the pre heat setting ! Should it have looked like that ? The grime is black and greasy.

@CookingWithCJ Год назад

Thank you!! Might be the pellet residue or smoke. It’s gonna get dirty like any other bbq. Maybe give it another go and cook something in it. See if it affects anything.

@johntoth3881 Год назад

Great video. Question where did you get the grill grate brush? You said it came with it and my wood fire grill didn't.

Love watching your vids and learned alot of new cooks from it. What is the first brush you used? My woodfire grill apparently didn't come with that, or it was somewhere in the box and I just missed it. I am never sure what I can use to scrub mine that won't ruin it. I mean for the cooking plate surface.

I reckon you are not supposed too, I read that somewhere. Otherwise its materials will lose the anti-adherence features... what I do, with the removable parts, I just keep them in the sink under a mix of detergent and hot water for 5-10 min, then it's extremely easy to clean-up.

Would heating up the Grill on the bake or air fryer function work...maybe a hairdryer on the joint? I live in Minnesota and we left the grill out after the cook in temps around 30 degrees...I think that "tar " froze. We have it inside the house and it will not budge. I used the Kona pellets because it sounded like they would not produce as much Creosote...do you have a favorite low-creasote brand of pellet? BTW...our roast turned out perfectly...maybe a bit dry, but very flavorful Thanks in advance!

A Money saver and cleaning saver! For Flat Top Grilling, don't buy the Ninja Flat Tray. Its a waste of money! Get an Oven Liner or Silcone Bake sheet for about €3, and then makes mega Flat Top Burgers. If super adventurous you could try and make Pancakes!! For cleanup; its a wipe and go, 5 Seconds, then reuse, you should get 3 or 400 Re-uses.
