Default Best/Easiest way to clean grill?

What is the easiest/best to clean a [coal]grill? I mean the part that you
put the meat on, some I spoke to suggested letting the grill soak in some
sort of spray before cleaning, others say it's best to use the BBQ tool to
clean off the heavy stuff then spray e.t.c, I would like to know of the
easiest/best way and which spray or whatever to use please, will welcome
everyone's method, thanks.

I don't clean them. I leave them in the Kamado. When it gets hot, I
brush them off.

I use Aluminum foil on mine. If that doesn't cut it, I steal my wife's Mr.
Clean Eraser.

That kicks ass!

Some types can be cleaned in a self cleaning oven, though I've never tried
that.

I usually just give it a quick once over with soft, metal brush after
cooking, then again when it's heating up for the next cooking, and follow
that up with a wipe with a generous handful of paper towels if it looks
particularly nasty

A cook once told me that he would light the fire very high on start up to
burn out what's on the grill, this used to work when I was using lighter
fuel, now that I am using a chimney starter I hadn't thought about
brushing it when it heats up, think I will give it a brushing after the
food has finished and then again when it heats up and wipe with paper
towels before next cooking, thanks for the tips guys, will still welcome
other methods.
