How to clean Coleman Roadtrip grill burners

We have a Coleman Roadtrip LX grill and use it both on the road and at home. Good results, but the burners have gotten clogged and don't put out full propane. Any suggestions on cleaning them?
  • Dishwasher? I don't own a gas grill, never will, but wouldn't the dishwasher work? I mean the burners aren't that big are they?

    Surely if you will never have a gas grill, then you will never have a dishwasher! lol

    I think I just wet myself.
  • THE SuperDave wet himself? How interesting.....I thought you could live up to your name. Now we all have our bubble bursted.

    I am very glad I could be of some entertainment. I am a pit master from NC, and I do live in a house with indoor plumbing, so a dishwasher came with the joint. So, if I don't own a gas grill, I'm an animal and live in a cave? That's your juvenile way of thinking?
    hahahaha
  • I used to take mine to the quarter car wash, spray it down with oven cleaner, then hit it with the wand. cleaned everything!

    I had the same reaction to these comments - had a real belly laugh! Lighten up and just enjoy life!
  • We had a single-burner Roadtrip grill, a free gift, and the best thing we did after discovering it's cheesy quality is to place it in our earthquake gear for use as a cooking stove. We use a Weber Tabletop gas grill. Wire brush and needle works for us and that fixed my mother's Weber Q200 when it got clogged (they weren't running it for five or ten minutes to burn off the grease after finishing cooking).

    Well******I thought I was. I wish there were the emoticons to put up like on another board I'm on. There are a lot and there is no doubt what your intention is there. I don't take squat on any computer board serious. This is all too much fun, and my reality escape. :)
  • "Before a trip I line the drip pan with foil. When I get home I take out the foil and cold grease and throw it away."

    That's what we do with ours. We line it all (except for the burners and grilling grates of course). For the cooking grates I use a Rubbermaid type of flat container (like the one that slide under beds). I fill it with water and some dish soap and let the grates soak over night. Next morning all it takes is hosing off and a little brushing. We have had our Roadtrip for two years now and it looks brand new!
