re: what's the secret to keep gas grills from flaming up?

My infrared grill rarely flares up. Actually the only time i had any kind of fire was cooking armadillo eggs.

The huge drawback to these grills is that the stuff that would normaly drip to the bottom of the grill just settles on top of plate that's supposed to prevent flareups. And it's kind of a bitch to clean because the grates are so wide a wirebrush is almost useless.I use my pressure washer to clean the grates.


But hey....no "flareups".
