Broil King Stainless Steel & Resin Ice Grill Brush — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Broil King Ice Grill Brush?
The Broil King Ice Grill Brush is a cleaning tool that uses ice and steam to help remove grill residue without leaving abrasive marks. It’s made of stainless steel and resin, and comes with 3 ice holders and a 3-block ice tray.
How does the “ice cleaning” method work?
When you place ice in the holders, as it melts on a hot grill, the steam generated helps loosen stuck-on grease and food particles. This method avoids harsh scraping and leaves less residue behind.
What are its features and specifications?
• Stainless steel shaft with resin handle for durability and heat resistance.
• Includes **3 ice holders** and a **3-block ice tray** for filling with ice.
• Compatible with most gas grills, charcoal grills, smokers, and ovens.
• Uses steam action (not aggressive scraping) to clean.
How do I use this brush properly?
1. Preheat your grill to a temperature that allows steam generation (not cold).
2. Insert ice blocks in the holders, or place ice into the ice tray.
3. Move the brush over the hot grates so the melting ice creates steam, helping lift grime.
4. Add a splash of lemon juice to the ice if you want extra degreasing action.
5. Wipe away residue with a cloth or paper towel after brushing.
How should I maintain and care for it?
• After use, rinse or wipe off any leftover residue and dry thoroughly so water doesn’t corrode parts.
• Avoid soaking the resin handle in very hot or harsh chemical cleaners.
• Store the brush in a dry place to prevent rust or damage to the ice tray parts.
• Regularly inspect for damage to the ice holders or wear to the stainless parts.
What are the advantages and limitations?
Advantages:
• Gentle steam method reduces the need for metal scraping
• Effective at removing debris while minimizing residue
• The ice + steam method is a more natural cleaning process
Limitations:
• It’s less aggressive than wire-bristle brushes — very baked-on carbon may require extra passes
• Must have enough heat and steam to work effectively
• Ice supply is needed during cleaning (you’ll have to supply ice)
• Resin parts might degrade over long use with extreme heat or harsh detergents
