I know most of you probably have your own favorite products and methods for cleaning grates on your WSM, but I would strongly recommend giving Chore Boy golden fleece scouring cloths a try. My wife does stained glass art and she bought them for her use but did not like them for that application so she gave them to me for the smoker. I tried them today for the first time with just hot soapy water and I gotta tell you I was impressed. They have the sort of a cross between a greed scratch pad and a dish cloth. The cloth-like feel allows it to get in places that are tough to get at with most other scouring products. She bought them for about $1.50 for a package of two at Ingles.
