What do you guys use to scrub the cooking grates, both before and after?
Any tips to make it easy? Thanks!

Just DO NOT use a wire grill brush!

"The man of system is apt to be very wise in his own conceit; and is often so enamored with the supposed beauty of his own ideal plan of government that he cannot suffer the smallest deviation from any part of it…He seems to imagine that he can arrange the different members of a great society with as much ease as the hand arranges the different pieces upon a chessboard.” Adam Smith, The Theory of Moral Sentiments
Wadded up tin foil
Crappie fish fry. It don't taste any better.
alum foil
While its still hot I spray dawn dish soap and let cool. Then a coarse brown scotch brite pad and hose off
Just open up the vents and let it go for a few minutes. Every now and again, a full clean burn.

Foil and a onion.
This is what I do. After I'm done grilling, I like to burn off the remaining coal and wood, then once cool I scrape out the ashes and discard to the burn pit. I don't actually "clean" my grates though... If my smoker grates need to be cleaned, I remove them and stack them on my grill to be burned off at the same time.
Not sure if this technique will work on cast iron grates however my wife tosses the oven grates into a black plastic bag with ammonia. She ties the bag closed and lays it out in the sun for a day. That evening those grates come out sparkling clean.
Foil also.
don't use nuttin but hot soapy dish water, since last grill has porcelain cover grates. And always cover with foil any hoo
I use the bristle type with no issue but I’ll never use the steel wool kinda again. I used it once and got a piece in my steak which I got in my throat. I have a very sensitive gag reflex so I blew me steak in the toilet. Lots of dry heaves until I could reach in an get it out. Kinda making me gag just thinking about it now.
