Ooof, 9 years worth of recall.

"Nexgrill is voluntarily recalling over 10.2 million metal wire bristle grill brushes sold at The Home Depot stores and online between 2015 and 2026. Small metal wire bristles can detach from the brushes, stick to the grill or food, posing an ingestion hazard and risk of serious internal injuries that could require surgery. You should immediately stop using the recalled brush.

Nexgrill is offering a full refund in the form of a gift card ($5–$15 depending on model) after a successful claim."

Product Safety Recall - Nexgrill

@ai6yr I had a Weber brush, because it was a big brand and seemed to be well made. I think it *was* well made, but all of these are destined to be recalled. I got a notice because my large online retailer remembered my purchase. I figured it was time to change over, even though I think my methods were safe, and it was a good brush.

My advice, if you get one of the more modern continuous spiral ones, is to get one with ranks of spirals. They don't work quite as well so you need more brush.

@ai6yr and you need to put more weight into it

@ethergear @buckfiftyseven @ai6yr A wooden scraper like these work very well. I made my own out if cedar. Not as nice looking as these though.
