Probably need to leave the food on there a little longer so it doesn't stick. I usually get my grill pretty hot and then rub the grates with olive oil. Or use Canola Oil instead, it holds up to the heat better. As far as burgers go, they usually have enough fat content that they don't stick too bad

I've got a pretty good tip that will help save you a towel and help clean the grill at the same time. Take a few paper towels and put them in some aluminum foil and pour oil on them before wrapping it up. Next, poke a few holes in the bottom and use the tongs to keep your hand away from the heat. The end result is the aluminum foil cleans the grates while the oil lubricates them, plus the foil protects the paper towels from burning. Hope this helps.

Does coating the grill with the olive oil cloth help with getting good grill marks in your meats? Usually when trying to achieve the grill marks, I end up having meats stick and fall apart.

I am very careful in the kitchen with cross contamination of fresh and raw foods. I never even thought about it at the grill. Thank you for raising awareness on this issue. We r big barbecue fans down under in Australia also.



@ChefTips Great Tips. I'm in the market for my first grill. What brand do you recommend for a quality grill that isnt more than $400.

Hello. You can get a nice grill for $400. An all stainless steel grill will cost more, but they will hold up to the test of time. I usually go by the old rule of thumb. If you are going to use it a lot, invest in quality. If you are not going to use it a lot, save yourself some money. Check out costco.com for some grills.
