Grill brush recommendation

I've had a bristle grill brush for the last 10 years or so, and it's finally met the end of its usable life. Any recommendations for bristle free/otherwise for easy cleaning? Thanks

I still use the bristle brushes, but follow with a paper towel moistened with oil.Raleigh, NC

There have been stories of the wire bristles becoming imbedded in the food and then consumed only to lead to medical complications up to surgery for removal.
Here's a link with other options:Re: best alternative to wire brush? FWIW-

I was a non-believer for years, but then 2 years ago I bought a BillyBar and I love it! While it is ferrous and you'll need to treat it nicely so it won't rust, but it should last a lifetime so that makes it CHEAP! Granted you have to clean one grid bar at a time so it may not be for the impatient amongst us here. But it works so well making that drawback immaterial to my way of thinking!Re-gasketing the USA one yard at a time

I also use a Billy Bar and like it very much. I don't want anything to do with bristles. Having said that, balled up aluminum foil also works pretty dang well.Stillwater, MN

I use a wood scraper or balled up foil._________________________________________________Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story!Large BGE 2006, Mini Max 2014, 36" Blackstone, Anova Sous Vide

I really like these pumice stones. They are chaepa and do a great job without bristles.

Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...

Grill brush I’ve had from Home Depot for years.. really only use it when things get chunky, high heat cooks keep things relatively clean.
I’ve heard of the bristles getting in food thing but tend to pay attention when I am staring at the surface that I am brushing. -
But the Grillbot looks like it has bristles so it’ll eventually kill you.fishlessman said:i also went back to the bristle brush. waiting though for the bge craze for grillbots
