Question: can you use this to clean a charcoal or gas grill cooking grates?
Document: I use cast iron almost exclusively for cooking with several Lodge skillets, a grill pan/griddle, and a 12" dutch oven. Before I found this, I was using the Alton Brown paper towel and kosher salt method which usually resulted in tiny bits of shredded paper towel or a nylon scraper which really didn't have enough abrasive qualities. I was able to clean the dutch oven with the ringer after cooking 3 racks of ribs.
I haven't yet used it on my fiberglass tub but I will. I can't wait to start grilling as I'm sure this will make cleaning the grill and grates easier. I haven't found anything yet this doesn't work on and it doesn't scratch. No more harsh chemicals for me just a little water and the Ringer. I am so happy I found this, it has made my cleaning so much easier. There were other similar ones but this is a perfect size and shape.I can't say enough about it.
I originally bought this to use on stove top griddle. It does a really nice job of cleaning it and I was very happy with it. Then I used it on my stainless steel racks in my smoker and they have never been cleaner. I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking for an easy to use, inexpensive way to clean their cast iron, grill racks or even the racks in smokers.
When I ordered this I wasn&#8217;t sure it would do what I needed. I have used almost everything I could get my hands on to clean off the cooking surface without damaging the seasoned finish. This is the best thing I have found to clean up the cast iron. If you use cast iron to cook you really should give The Ringer a try you won&#8217;t be disappointed.
This is very simple to use and quite effective. Just received it this morning and used it on my Craycort cast iron grates. I am happy with the results and would buy this again.
I ordered three of these...one for myself and one for each of my chef sons. We all use cast iron pans and have never liked the steel scrub pads so commonly available in the supermarkets. We are all pleased. They wiggle into the small grease rim on my iron grill leaving it free from debris. It does a great job on the bottoms and sides of my skillets. My sons were pleased how easy they rinse and hang to dry. They are super sturdy.
The Ringer worked great on my cast iron grill. It removed most of the built on, burnt gunk. My husband had purchased an expensive &#34;fancy brush&#34; intended to clean cast iron but it broke. The Ringer does exactly what it claims and is affordable. Great product!
This little beast cleans up stuck-on food - arm effort still required, mind you - but somehow tends to leave the pan's seasoning in excellent shape. I say &#34;tends&#34; because I did get a little rigorous once and managed to scratch the surface a bit. Also, as other reviewers have noted, The Ringer's small rings work well to clean the Lodge grill pan, but I find it difficult to get the grill completely clean without user other items too.
I use this on carbon steel pans and cast iron pans. Makes quick work of cleaning off the cooking residue but leaving the surface and seasoning in great condition. I'll probably look to giving these out as gifts at Christmas.
I am new to cast iron cookware. I bought the Ringer about a month ago. This little gem makes cleaning them a snap while still protecting the seasoning. I just bought one for a friend as a gift who has been cooking with cast iron for years. He was skeptical at first until he saw me use it this Sunday. Now he's a convert.
Answer: As far as I can tell it should work well with any type of cast iron cooking grate. You bunch it up in your hand and use it like a scouring pad. Since it is meant to be used on all cast iron cookware it should work well. The only caveat is that it does not cover a large area like a grill so you would have to do an area at a time.
