Keep your grill clean and green
It's the 4th of July and for many of us that means dragging out the grill and realizing it's still disgustingly dirty from the last time you used it. Don't feel bad, everyone "let's it cool first" and then forgets about it while they drink another couple of beers. It's a cookout, you're supposed to be relaxed.Now that you're ready to clean your grill, so you can make it dirty again, what does a green griller use? Green grill cleaner, of course.
Dirty grills are a combination of cooked on grime and grease, so a natural degreaser like citrus can work wonders. Soy is another ingredient of choice. Check out your biodegradable, non-toxic and phosphate-free choices in the gallery.

One of my friends went even greener and told me to simply turn the grill on, cut an onion in half and scrub the cut side over the grill as it's heating up. I don't know how effective it would be for stuff that's caked on there pretty well, but it seemed to work nicely for the small amount of stuff we had on there. Also, if citrus works well, I'd imagine you could do the same thing with a lemon or lime and make it smell great in the process.
