Pam makes spray for grills though I've never used it. The grates on my
Char-Broil grill are cast iron so seasoned them like one would a cast iron
pan in the oven. I also clean them with a wire brush when still very hot
after use. Most of the time when doing steaks I marinate first which also
stops some of the sticking. I have also meet some grillers who will wipe the
grates with peanut or canola oil before heating it up. This can cause a
flare up if not careful though.
