Grill accessory spinoff - grill brushes

I still use wire brushes and try to replace them pretty often to reduce any risk. Quick glance at the grill grate before putting anything on just to make sure I don't see any loose bristles. They're just too good at cleaning the grill to give up on over a small chance at a loose bristle.

Here man... get one of these. It's what I use.

Can you give more details on that. Pic is blurry and can't really tell what the scrubber part is made of.

I'm using this: Bristle-less Brush

Works great, although will eventually get gunked up which reduces its effectiveness. Just set it over coals for a minute or two to burn the gunk off and you're good to go again.

What are you guys using for a grill brush?

I still use a wire brush.

Will likely replace it with a nylon one when it needs it. In the meantime, I just like to live dangerously.

Does anyone just not clean their grates?

Sometimes I do..sometimes I don't..I guess it depends if it is real crusty. I just let the heat from the coals burn it off and give it few wacks and scrape with the tongs.

This is what I do most of the time.

Been using a wire brush for 10 years. My dad plenty more than that. Not once have I found a bristle in my meat.

I've had one for roughly 6 months, no complaints.
