Care of the grill

It is not enough to follow the steps for preparing the ribs and the tips and tricks: the grill is a decisive element when cooking pork ribs. That is why the grill must always be clean and properly maintained. 

Not all grills are the same, so it is important that you know your grill and follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper grill maintenance. Start by cleaning the utensils after each use, as this allows you to remove dirt and debris from the previous use; it also prevents the meat from acquiring a bad odor and bacteria. 

The best time to clean the grill is when it is still hot, that is, after removing the last dish you have made on it. The heat allows for optimal removal of food particles and debris from the food, thus preventing the fat and meat from cooling, drying and sticking to the utensils. Dried fat is much more difficult to remove.
