    Abstract: A cleaning tool for use in removing food residue from barbecue grill-grates and grill housings. The design utilizes two scraping edges that are highly effective due to the angle at which the tool is oriented to the horizontal grill-grate. The scraping end of the tool is hereinafter referred to as the “Tip” and the bottom end of the tool is hereinafter referred to as the “Base”. The base has a garden-hose adapter incorporated into the tool so that char residue may be rinsed off as the grill grate or housing is being scraped. The “Tip”, being the working end of the tool, is milled by a CNC (computer numerical control) machine. A “V” shaped notch is cut out to form the top of the tip. A ?? diameter semi-circular groove is milled to form the bottom of the “Tip”. The tool is utilized by contacting the tip of the tool at roughly a 45° angle to the grill-bar. From this orientation, the tool is pushed forward to remove char/food residue from grill bar.
