I remember seeing a similar story on the news about 10 years ago. It stayed with me and I think about it every single time I clean my grills. Scary. I like this tin foil idea I think I'm gonna try that and see how well it works.

I gave up on brushes. I use one of these,

followed by a stainless steel scrubby, and then sterilize in the cooker.

Ran into a buddy last year while voting. His wife ate a hamburger and had a grill brush wire inbedded into her lower jaw. She was in horrible pain. David took her to the E/Room. Only after an x-ray did it show up. They had to do surgery in the e/room to remove it. I still use a grill brush to knock off the big nasties. Then I use a ball of h.d. tin foil to re-scrub my grates to prevent this from ever happening to my family or guests. This crap is for real folks!!!!!

What also happens is someone will wire brush a grill and a pet will clean up the area where the brushing was done.

I heard about this on here not long after I first joined. I use balled up foil on my WSM and one of those stones on my gasser. Which I hate, because it leaves dust behind on the grates. Which I have to wipe off with an EVOO paper towel

If I recall correctly from the last time this came up, a lot of the problem is how the brush is made. Cheap brushes cut a length of brass wire, say 1/2 inch, and wedge the 1/2 inch group of wire into a hole and repeat. Easy for the wires to fall out, especially when the plastic base is heated. Quality brushes cut a length of wire 1" long, and push down in the middle of the wires and secure them in the base of the brush so they are held in place. That's why I like using Weber's y shaped brush, the bristles are held in the middle of two strands of twisted metal, very difficult to come loose.
