You only need water and ice on a high temp and a rubber glove to protect from the steam. NEVER put degreaser anywhere near where food is cooked! Hella toxic!
It's been six, going on seven years since I last used this stuff and I can *still* smell it clear as day. Thanks for the acrid, yet somehow fond and familiar, memories of what were simultaneously some of the best and worst years of my life.
Yeah, I remember whilst I was working as a kitchen aid, the chefs would make the tiny kitchen into a literal gas chamber after pouring the chemicals onto the grill
Do you know what was in spray bottle? I only have a 14" commercial tabletop griddle, when I was cook at dog track years ago we used soda water and ice, then a scraper Lol. Any ideas? Ty
Solid content. I wish I saw this video 15 years ago. Personally, I like white vinegar instead of lemon juice. Lemon juice had sugars that could cause browning. Also, depending on the temp you run your grill, olive oil will burn and cause more carbon build up to clean the next day. Most fry oils are higher temp smoke point. A bit of grapeseed or flaxseed oil is the best.
@@RollerdinoGaming right with other oils doing the same thing, it’s a bit wasteful to take one of the nicer oils, olive oil, just to quite literally burn it up
This is the only way tutorials should be filmed. No unnecessary advertising, no hour long intro, just showing the process, explanations what to do and that's it! Perfect, thank you for this, despite the fact I don't own such a device.

I used dill pickle brine on the hot grill and finished off with grill screens and fryer oil but everybody had their favorite technique. A satisfying end to a busy night.
I’ll tell u this bro it ain’t broken. I used to be a manager when I was 20. We just say that instead of saying oh the machine is down and doing a clean up cycle. So we don’t waste time explaining
It's because we've all watched kitchen nightmares at some point. The algorithm actually works it's not that hard to see why it would recommend videos like this.
I used to run a sautee side of the line at a 5 star hotel before I became a chef. I used to get mad when the am shift would leave it spotless/dry. It's much like cast iron skillets; etc ...You need to have some oil on it otherwise nearly everything sticks to it for a day and makes life hell.
@@homelessrobot smart guy. Had been doing the same thing. Had been carrying my own bottle of coconut oil and use it as a finisher after cleaning the grill. I remembered my manager said that the reason why I have such a flexible schedule because I'm the only guy that can clean the grill perfectly lol.
FYI never use ice or ice water! For tough burned on surface or to refinish scratched surface use veg oil and a special fine grain griddle brick. Produces a super smooth griddle!
We used to use these wiry metal scouring balls. I think they were made of copper (?) and they sort of resembled one of those poof balls you use with body wash in the shower. Squirt some vinegar on the grill, scrape it with the scraper to get the big stuff, squirt again and finish with the scouring thing and a final rinse. The grill would come out pretty much spotless without much effort...usually,.
I can see it. Worked at mcdonalds for a cpl years, cleaning thr grill with the liquid chemical packets given to us was satisying but you'd get light headed and feel like shit after breathing in the fumes for 10mins or longer depending on how long it took to clean
its been a minute since my ServSafe certification but i'm pretty sure it's a bad idea to mix chemicals 3 feet away from where food is being prepped on the same table
But in all seriousness i used to work at a bar and grill at 17 and i had to do this everyday. Im now 25 and thanks for bringing a good memory back to me. Kudos and thank you for your time creating and editing the vid for our viewing pleasure.

You should take on the challenge of educating yourself about labor law and unions. The iww has a lot of organizer manuals and stuff that can be found online. Even in audiobook format. Staughton lynd also writes books worth checking out.
I honestly don't know why so many people feel the need to comment on alternative ways of doing this (even hinting that their way is better), when this looks perfect in many ways (cost, chemical-free, easy, no unnecessary lingering tastes/smells). Perhaps it's just the way people are or have become. I for one, am happy to congratulate the guy on his efforts and ingenuity. WELL DONE

I just scoop some oil from the fryer and spread it around and use one of those grill bricks or an iron with a mesh screen. Came out perfect Everytime without turning the grill to 450 and using fresh oil
Back in the 70's when I worked at a place that had a grill like this, they gave us the cleaning bricks only. Took forever and a mess to clean up. I usually work the closing shift as I was a teenager. I worked a Saturday and day crew showed me a secret. Turn on to high and get hot. Turn off and throw on ice cubes. Worked great everytime. Quick and easy to clean up. Touched up any spots with Brillo if needed. No chemicals.
Yes, I'm one of the comments who has a flat top grill. edit: a year after i commented this, let's all pray for my flat top grill, whose life span was 6 years. tbh, i expected this since i got it second hand. But nonetheless, I cooked some pretty tasty burgers there.

What’s the First Spray they are spraying on a grill
Solid content. I wish I saw this video 15 years ago.
Personally, I like white vinegar instead of lemon juice. Lemon juice had sugars that could cause browning. Also, depending on the temp you run your grill, olive oil will burn and cause more carbon build up to clean the next day. Most fry oils are higher temp smoke point. A bit of grapeseed or flaxseed oil is the best.
Even better soda water
Olive oil creates a polymer film when heated that makes the surface non stick.
@@Cyrus_II other oils also do, but as mentioned above they don't burn nearly as quickly as olive oil does
@@RollerdinoGaming right with other oils doing the same thing, it’s a bit wasteful to take one of the nicer oils, olive oil, just to quite literally burn it up
@@Cyrus_II Vegetal oil in general would do that, but better to use a cheaper one with higher smoke point.

so do u need actualy crushed lemon juice or ....?
@@randomrazr just the critic acid. I imagine they probably have lemon slices for drinks so easier to juice pulp leftovers,
@@whatfruit7965 it got the black off the grill?
I honestly don't know why so many people feel the need to comment on alternative ways of doing this (even hinting that their way is better), when this looks perfect in many ways (cost, chemical-free, easy, no unnecessary lingering tastes/smells).
Perhaps it's just the way people are or have become.
I for one, am happy to congratulate the guy on his efforts and ingenuity. WELL DONE
I just want people to not throw cold water on a grill when hot. It's a good way to ensure you destroy the grill
@@jonathonhobbs6676 how do you figure?
Chemical free ? Did you not see the bottle
Of yellow chemical he was spraying lol
@@cameronwilliams4149 warps the surface, breaks the welds, creates microfractures. Grill eventually becomes a fire hazard.
It's just physics, my dude.
Plus my experience in the industry repairing restaurant equipment.
@@adbyee386 I started to think "very good counter argument from adb yee'. Then I thought 'hang on a minute', my original comment expresses my amazement at HOW MANY people had chosen to comment the way they did, as opposed to being amazed at why people commented the way they did. You clearly either have missed that point, or simply can't differentiate between the two. In either case, you have exposed yourself as being quite simple, whilst attempting to be intricate in your approach (and aggressive for reasons unknown to myself). I could pick so many more faults in your response, but have decided not do so, unless you insist on replying again, with more nonsense.
(I feel better now) 😎
I just scoop some oil from the fryer and spread it around and use one of those grill bricks or an iron with a mesh screen.
Came out perfect Everytime without turning the grill to 450 and using fresh oil
Anybody that’s ever had their kitchen criticized by Gordon Ramsay: “Write that down, WRITE THAT DOWN!”
Lol you suck lol trash
Ramsey would have lit him up for filling the chemical bottle on that food prep surface
Back in the 70's when I worked at a place that had a grill like this, they gave us the cleaning bricks only. Took forever and a mess to clean up. I usually work the closing shift as I was a teenager. I worked a Saturday and day crew showed me a secret. Turn on to high and get hot. Turn off and throw on ice cubes. Worked great everytime. Quick and easy to clean up. Touched up any spots with Brillo if needed. No chemicals.
same here but learned soda water is easier
Yea this guy is a lab rat inhaling the burning chemicals over the years
Now prove the brick and oil are not gluten containing, and l might eat wherever that grill is.
You obviously didn't know how to use those stones. Your ice cube trick runs the risk of warping the grill surface, expensive to repair.
We did the same brick and ice. Long time ago
We use to use plain old water and white towel and elbow grease. Also we cleaned grills between lunch and dinner. So it never build up.
We used to pour pickle juice on the grill to clean it. It did a great job.
Yes, I'm one of the comments who has a flat top grill.
edit: a year after i commented this, let's all pray for my flat top grill, whose life span was 6 years. tbh, i expected this since i got it second hand. But nonetheless, I cooked some pretty tasty burgers there.
Is this stainless steel top? Does it sticks compared to cast iron?
@@kyepinnlau1772 I can't tell actually, by the looks of it it's probably stainless steel
I am looking for an even heating grill top for pan cakes. U have any advice? Does stainless steel works? Or cast iron is better ya
@@kyepinnlau1772 I prefer cast iron because it conducts heat better
Impossible
