What is the best way to clean the Plate Setter.

hapster

Get the egg to about 500° and put whatever side is dirty towards the fire.

Flip it over and let the Egg burn it off.

Pics or it didn't happen. We love food porn around here

Foil it in the first place and never have to clean it of grease and other burnt on crap! OTOH apparently you didn't do that so do a clean burn out and leave the dirtiest side down.

Yep, once it's been cleaned wrapping it in foil is the way to go.  Takes about 30 seconds.  Enjoy!

hapster

Yep. Mine gets a foil hat before every couple of cooks now...

I usually cook pizza and if the plate setter is with legs down that'll do it. Of course I get it up to 650-700 for pizza...

Pressure washer followed by heavy duty cycle in dishwasher (according to @cazzy )

I forgot to do this on my last big cook and it looks like the surface of the moon.  I am cooking chicken tonight and finishing cooking a pork butt tonight around 400.  I will turn it over after I am done for a while to see if I can get some of it cooked off.  Foiling it next time.

Don't foil crap...you don't foil the inside of the egg? Run that placesetter like a truck through mud.
