Cleaning your kamado grill is simpler than you might think! Here's how to do it:
Inside cleaning:
Heat up your kamado to 500°F (260°C) for 30 minutes. This high heat will burn off food residue and debris. Important: Never use water or cleaning products inside. The porous walls can absorb liquids and crack. For stubborn soot, use a wire brush once the grill has cooled.
Grills and grates:
Wait for them to cool completely. Use a non-abrasive cleaner for thorough cleaning.
Outside cleaning:
Let the kamado cool down. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Remember, your kamado is mostly self-cleaning, so you won't need to do this often. Just keep an eye on build-up and clean when necessary. Happy grilling!
