Cleaning my Grill with Easy-Off Oven Cleaner - Reviewed

 

Cleaning my grill with easy-off oven cleaner
Keeping my grill in top condition ensures my grilling is always a hit. I have a Char-Griller Smokin Champ, a combination smoker, and a charcoal grill.

Over time, grease, charred bits, and food residue can build up, affecting the food's taste and the grill's performance.

I have discovered that Easy-Off oven cleaner is not only for cleaning your oven but also very effective in cleaning my grill.

Easy-Off is known for its ability to break down stubborn grease and grime. It's specifically designed for tough kitchen jobs, making it perfect for cleaning grills.

Safety First: Here is What You'll Need

Make sure you follow all the safety instructions on the can.

  • Easy-Off oven cleaner (I use the Heavy Duty version)
  • Rubber gloves to protect your hands
  • A sponge or grill brush ( I use a Scrub Daddy)
  • A bucket of warm water for rinsing
  • Paper towels of cloth
After spraying the Easy-Off Heavy Duty I let it set for about an hour. Then, I use the scrub daddy and warm water to wipe out the grease. After I have all of the grease cleaned out I use the paper towels to wipe it dry. There is no doubt about it, this is a messy job but, the results are satisfying and it works well.

Before Cleaning

This was my cooking chamber in my grill before I cleaned it with Easy-Off oven cleaner.

After Cleaning

Here is my cooking chamber after I cleaned it. 

After cleaning, I wiped the cooking chamber and grill grates with cooking oil and added a chimney full of hot charcoal. I closed the lid to let the temperature rise to 500 degrees. 

Then, let the grill cool naturally. This process is to reseason the grill, and the grates to prevent rust. I do this because the grates are cast iron and the cooking chamber is all metal.

Ninja Foodi Grill Review

 

Ninja Foodi Grill Review

Our daughter got this Ninja Foodi Grill as a Christmas gift and I just have to tell you how amazing this kitchen gadget really is.

Fran and I are both retired but we both work part-time jobs. On the days that we work, we don't always prepare a meal for when we get home. 

With the Ninja Foodi Grill, we have a nice hot meal in 30 minutes or less. You can grill, air fry, bake, roast, and dehydrate with the Foodi Grill. Take foods from frozen to grilled juicy perfection in 30 minutes or less.

Ninja Foodi Grill Features and Settings:

Grill Control, Low, Medium, High, and Max

Time Setting button in minutes

Air Crisp Setting

Dehydrate Setting

Roast and Bake Settings

Above is a photo of everything in the Ninja Foodi Grill box:

Grill Grate

Cleaning Brush

The recipe book has 15 great recipes for you to try. There are also charts for grilling, air frying, and frozen food. The charts give you the amount of food, preparation tips, Cooking temperatures, and recommended cooking times. 

Sausage and Grilled Peppers

We made these Sausage and Pepper Grinders, the recipe is on page 26 of the included recipe book. 

Grilled peppers and onions

First, Fran cut 2 bell peppers and one onion and tossed them in a plastic bag with 2 tablespoons of canola oil. 

Then, insert the grill grate and close the hood. Select Grill, set the temperature to low, and set the time to 28 minutes. Then, select start/stop to begin preheating. The unit will beep to indicate that's time to add the food, I love this feature it really takes the guesswork out of preheating. 

Add the peppers and onions on top of the grill grate and close the hood. The timer will begin to count down. Grill the peppers and onions for 12 minutes, when the timer counts down to 16 minutes lift the hood, place them in a bowl and cover with tin foil for later.

Grilled Sausage

Add the sausage and close the hood, the timer will begin to count down again. We cooked the sausage for 7 minutes per side for a total of 14 minutes. The recipe cooks the sausage for 6 minutes per side but I added 2 minutes at the beginning of the process knowing that I wanted my sausage cooked a little more.

Lift the hood and remove the sausage. There will be 2 minutes left on the timer, add your sausage rolls on the grill top and close the hood for the last 2 minutes. Now you'll have nice toasty rolls for your sandwich. These sausage grinders were delicious, I went a little overboard and ate 2 of them myself.

I like the fact you can cook your whole meal by setting one time. We've also made shrimp and fish fillets in the air crisper from frozen to perfection.

Last week I made a couple of ribeye steaks. I brushed them with canola oil, seasoned them, and grilled them for 6 minutes per side, they were a perfect medium-rare. Let's say someone in the family likes their steak cooked medium, all you have to do is leave one steak on the grill and add another minute or two.

So far this has been a great addition to our kitchen gadgets. We've been having a lot of fun experimenting with different foods and time settings.

By the way, the splatter screen, removable cooking pot, grill grate, and crisper basket are really easy to clean.
