Even though I thought I had done a reasonably good job of seasoning and oiling my cast iron grate for the winter, it ended up getting partially rusted. Any advice on how to best clean it up?
 
How bad is it? If it is just a little surface rust, use some steel wool. clean it and give it some more oil. I've been bringing my grates in after cooking (preventative maintenance and care) and keeping indoors after using my wire brush on it after removing the food. and spraying down with some more oil.
 
Thanks, Bill. Long story short is these grates are great (no pun intended), but require a little TLC. An ounce of prevention is better than a lb. of cure!
 
Ballistic BBQ on youtube did a video on this subject. Sand paper, heat, treat with oil, wipe then repeat until you're happy. Watch the video, its well done.
