389421 Sat Apr 07 16:44:20 -0700 2007 12 41 Cookware 0 2459822 I seem to recall reading in Cook's Illustrated some time back about a test for the best grill brush. Does anyone recall which one they picked? Sat Apr 07 16:44:20 -0700 2007 10240 Bob Brooks 1 2459859 Bob, not to hijack your post, but on a similar subject, what kind of brush should I use on my grill - when I bought it, I thought I read some special directions not to use a steel brush because it would take the finish off, and of course I've since lost the directions -- anyone know what I'm talking about? Thanks in advance, and again, sorry Bob -- Sat Apr 07 16:57:00 -0700 2007 2459822 78611 aurora50 2 2459961 I just answered my own question, but this may help you. It's called the Grill Wizard.

Sat Apr 07 17:54:59 -0700 2007 2459961 78611 aurora50 4 2460270 I went to the website, and the brush ($10.95) and ground shipping come to almost $20!! I understand there may be some concerns about the "finish" on grill grates, but shouldn't the grates be cast iron or strong steel anyway? I say forget frou-frou "bbq grill brushes" and go to your local hardware store, go to the paint department, and get a heavy duty paint scraper. Long wooden handle, strong durable metal bristles, even a flat scraping side -- total cost under $3.

Just tried it out yesterday and the ability to control the marinade and brush in one tool plus easy clean up def. sold me.

However last year I tried a brush by libman I have solid stainless steel grates so I am able to use the stainless steel bristol brush but they also have a copper brush available for those that have porcelain coated grates. I have been using the same brush now for 15 months and it looks at good as the day I bought it not a single bent bristol. Also as a tip after preheating your grill dip or spray your brush with water and then scrub the steam created will make the job much easier.
