Put a heavy piece of aluminum foil to cover the grill crate completely and place some rocks on top of the foil to prevent the foil from floating then turn on the BBQ to high temp and close the lid. Wait 3-5 mins should be lots of smoke and check grill should be a grey powdery film on it, if not continue for a few minutes more. When done turn off BBQ roll up the foil into a ball and scrub the grill using the foil, voila a nice clean grill. It's like using a self clean oven same principle.
X2 and if your bride is still squeemish soak it down with Muriatic acid, a throw away paintbrush (not foam), works well. It will bubble and hiss a bit and take the grill right down to the bare metal. A thorough rinse and you are good to go.
