I've owned one for over a year and have always wondered if putting it in the dishwasher would actually work. I just replace them every 6 months.

So I have put mine in the dishwasher a bunch and it’s fine but also cleans it super well.


glopezz05

That’s good to know. I might try it but still nervous.

Do yours just kind of stay black like this or do you try to clean it off before using it again? I’ve been soaking it in soapy water but it’s not breaking down the grease much.


dubblies

Try throwing it in the dishwasher


glopezz05

I don’t make any attempt to clean them. I just soak it in water before using it.

If you are throwing it out every 6 months whats the harm in trying one out in the dishwasher?

I'd be worried about the grease and shite in the drain of the dishwasher.

$5 brush vs. $500 dishwasher.


iAmRiight

That’s what the dishwasher detergent is for. It binds to the grease (lipids) and allows it to either dissolve or emulsify in water. What’s the point in having a dishwasher if you don’t use it?

I see so many people that are afraid of their dishwasher. People washing shit and then putting it in the dishwasher. I scrape my dishes in the trash and immediately put them in the dishwasher. I use powder cheap detergent at the amount recommended by the user manual with some jet dry and my dishes come out flawless. I clean out the removable screen once a week or when buildup occurs. Use your dishwasher.


glopezz05

Yeah, this is why. I don’t want to screw up my dishwasher.

Grill cleaners are 5 bucks at Walmart. They're disposable and I wouldn't want that grease in my drain lines.


TheBoorOf1812

The best grill cleaning device is some crumpled up aluminum foil. Tear a sheet off, crumple it up, scrape your grill clean with it, toss in trash. Done. You're welcome.

This is what I do. My SO bought me what OP has and I haven’t used it not because I don’t like it but because I already have the perfect cleaner.

This. Or a half an onion on a fork/tongs

It ain’t rocket surgery bud

Try soaking it in hot water and degreaser. I used to use commercial label purple power to clean pizza ovens and I'm pretty sure simple green is biodegradable.


jackofallcards

I don’t know a lot about the product but why not? That’s basically how I wash all brushes


Richie_Video

Just because it’s absolutely caked in black grease.


RockPaperSizzers

Maybe boil it in water? Never seen that brand of brush. 🤷

Grill rescue. Made by firefighters or something


RockPaperSizzers

Didn’t realize that’s the brand, looked it up and seems like a scam or subscription to help fire fighters. First thing an iron scrubbing pad is way cheaper. They are selling the handle and a subscription to buy more iron scrubbing pads.


The_Mortal_Ban

I have one and I like it. Stupid expensive on their site tho.. like have the price on Amazon
