Cleaning your grill and cooking grates more often is also recommended. If you live near a body of saltwater or have a pool really close to your grill you may need to consider keeping your grill covered. Letting them air-dry can also promote corrosion. Make sure you use a soft cloth or paper towel to thoroughly dry the grates when you’re done. You can soak the grates in hot water to remove stubborn particles and then use a mild dishwashing liquid and nylon/soft abrasive pads or brushes. Washing PECI grates in a sink usually isn’t necessary, but if you find yourself with a reason to do so try to avoid using any soaps with citrus cleaning agents in them.

Way before I worked at Weber I used to use the edge of my BBQ spatula to scrape the grates clean while I was grilling. The porcelain enamel does a good job of protecting the grates, but if you scrape them with metal tools you could damage the porcelain. The porcelain enamel makes them easy to clean and maintain, but there are some things you may want to consider doing in order to make sure they last as long as possible. The heat retaining properties of cast iron makes it easy to produce impressive, bold sear marks on whatever it is you may be cooking. Many of our grills come with porcelain enameled cast iron (PECI) cooking grates and they are incredibly popular.
