Keeping stainless steel kitchen appliances smudge-free and shiny is hard enough. Keeping a stainless steel gas grill pristine requires even more time and attention. It’s outdoors, exposed to the elements sometimes year-round. That exposure is just one reason stainless steel becomes tarnished. “Grease, food particles, and moisture all take their toll on stainless,” says Cindy Fisher, who oversees grill testing at Consumer Reports.
So, here are some helpful tips from all of us at EH Clean about How to Clean a Stainless Steel Gas Grill. During these last few weeks of summer, you will likely want to use your stainless grill to grill some steaks, sausages, chicken or anything else you fancy.
“If you’re going to do just one thing for your stainless grill, keep it clean,” says Kevin Kolman, a spokesman for Weber, which makes grills with both stainless and porcelain-enameled lids. In addition to helping the stainless hold its shine, regular cleaning helps preserve its resistance to corrosion.
The more you use your grill and the harsher the environmental conditions, the more you’ll need to clean it. Salt air speeds up corrosion and rust, so regular maintenance—at least weekly—is especially important if you live near the ocean. Chlorine from a nearby swimming pool can also damage a grill’s finish if it’s not cleaned regularly.
Stainless steel varies in quality, and manufacturers may use different grades for different parts of the grill. That explains why maintenance advice may differ from manufacturer to manufacturer and grill to grill. Be sure to check your manual or the manufacturer’s website for how to handle discoloration, tough stains, and rust on your grill.

It’s safe to clean your grill when it’s cool to the touch. For regular cleaning, Weber and Char-Broil, both big sellers of gas grills, suggest using a dedicated stainless steel cleaner. But Char-Broil agrees with other manufacturers that you can also use a mild liquid dish detergent mixed with warm water. Avoid harsh cleaners such as bleach.
