Guys I work at McDonald's too. This is NOT a video on daily cleaning. This is a deeper cleaning that is only done once a quarter. We recently did it in our restaurants in preparation for the Hot Off the Grill initiative and it does work really well.
I too work for McDonald's/Springfield and what your seeing is done every morning at 4am prior to change over to breakfast if it's none being done in your store per policy consult a manager.....
This is grill recovery that should be done IF you have a lot of carbon buildup on your grill, especially on the clams. Monthly is the most accurate time to do this procedure. If daily grill cleaning is PROPERLY being administered then this procedure is done as needed.
I'm literally doing grill recovery right now haha Go McDonalds! Also, daily grill cleaning is not identical to this, so mcd's employee's - take note that this is a Recovery! A.k.a deep clean to remove ALL carbon build up. Regular nightly cleanings are similar BUT simpler and should be printed on in store materials available for you to reference.
I work ay McDonalds, and the owner of my McDonalds doesn’t have that double sided brush, but the carbon build up, is a lot worse. Lol, i get as much crud off as I can with just the grill pad
I clean my grill in recovery mode and never use an entire bottle 😂 I use to but my managers started yelling at me telling me you're only supposed to use 2 ounces of cleaner
At the McDonald's that I work at, the grill only gets cleaned when either me or my friend is put in charge of the grill. I've seen the grill go 2 weeks without a single cleaning !!!
This is not full grill recovery. This is top half. Not backside, heat shield walls, vents, grease traps, back grease traps and all that. This is cleaner than most but yeah, as a manager this looks easier than it usually is.
Bruh it was weird seeing those sheets on the bottom of the grill, at my McDonald's we don't use those, we just cook strait on the grill, i get this could just be there restraunt, bjt this is waaaay different then my restraunt, and it could be beacuse it's in recovery mode, we just switch it to clean mode
The lower platen sheets are often for things like cooking eggs or grilled chicken. This video is from 2015, procedures have since changed. With the introduction of the combi ovens they now want us to cook the RTH eggs and grilled chicken in the combi or put eggs on an egg cooker and I think they also want scrambled to stay off the grill. My store still does scramble on the grill because it's easier than cooking it on that teeny tiny cooker surface and you lose less product. You wouldn't want to cook burgers or sausage on those lower teflons because when it's time to remove them your spatula blades will perforate the teflon.
Those sheets u talking bout called teflon only use mostly for breakfast they there for eggs round eggs/folded eggs/scramble eggs doing lunch thier use for grill chicken
The teflons on the bottom cook surface where only trialed in America. I dont think they still do it. Recovery is exactly the same as clean mode the only differences are 1: the name 2: clean mode will constantly beep when at the correct temp and 3: RECOVERY has to be programmed onto the controller when clean mode is on there already by default.
We do something similar for our grills, once at about 3pm and another during the overnight shift as we're a 24/7 store. But if you're not performing your grill maintenance like this, then you're not doing your job right. Unless you're referring to just the grill steam clean, scrape and squeegee done usually every 30 minutes.
This is deep cleaning I only remember doing it maybe once a week. I think you’re talking about just cleaning grill which should be done about every 15 min.
that's true, cracks in front of bottom platens shows up because people use cold water poured directly on the platen. Well known issue on taylor 3-platen intelligap grills. Welding is costly.
They probably don't clean it off properly. You should wipe it off twice after cleaning and in the mornings before open. Also should be rinsed off periodically (not with the grill cleaner).
Fuck those flaps going on with the rod in the back and the clamps. My hands got scars from the kitchen . But that grill was beautiful. I put my meat in it.
It's 100% possible to deep clean your mcd grills like this EVERY day. You do one side of the grill at a time and you clean FAST. It's not hard. Stop being lazy.

Edward Selgas we run out of grill very time

Edward Selgas we do this at my mvdonalds every night. It takes forever

I like the way you talk about grills....
Just use clewn mode amd ket it set for 10 mins every day u will never need recovery

Hi How is the daily regular cleaning ? do you know ? Thanks
This would take an hour so that would be impossible for a 24 hour McDonald's.
What's the correct way of removing the heat resistant gloves
thank you I just learned how to clean the grills and I wanted a quick reminder
Stud muffin same
hope it went well for you. After about 2 months of doing it I'm an expert!
Justin Andrade yea I'm just starting today
I work ay McDonalds, and the owner of my McDonalds doesn’t have that double sided brush, but the carbon build up, is a lot worse. Lol, i get as much crud off as I can with just the grill pad
I used pickles juice to clean my grills at my McDonald's Restaurants in Savannah GA years ago.
We dont do half this because Im guessing the time and money for the extra crap
Entire bottle of grill cleaner? We never use that much at my McDonald's.
Cody Caldwell for a RECOVERY that is the correct procedure
I clean my grill in recovery mode and never use an entire bottle 😂 I use to but my managers started yelling at me telling me you're only supposed to use 2 ounces of cleaner
alex 1234 are you talking about daily cleaning, or monthly PM recovery?
Fr that's hellllaaa grill cleaner 😂
How did I get here
At the McDonald's that I work at, the grill only gets cleaned when either me or my friend is put in charge of the grill. I've seen the grill go 2 weeks without a single cleaning !!!
Jon Taffer is in the Parking Lot how do I clean mine in a minute?
we do this every night
Me too
If you leave cleaner on for to long will it cause damage to the grill specifically the top clams
17 minutes + cleaning time is the procedure.
The heat activated cleaner works better on 10:1 as the grill is hot enough for the cleaner to work. This is why no one uses recovery cleaning mode.
Who made this video? It sounds like an official McDees video. Oh, I see its a sales video Ecolab.

I rly wanna do this but my manager won’t let me. The grill is so damn dirty
What are the top grills thing? I still haven’t got an answer 😂
How do you clean a three separated grill.
Same rules apply just with 3 plates instead of too
Clean look
I work and mcdonald's and clean the grill this is way toooo much work this isn't how I clean it lol.

This is a grill recovery..its not the nightly grill cleaning
alex apollo it is a lot less messy in this video lol
alex 1234 we got told off for using the scraper and we only have a small packet to clean the grill with.
This is deep cleaning I only remember doing it maybe once a week. I think you’re talking about just cleaning grill which should be done about every 15 min.
Don't pour cold water on the grill or you will crack it
Bradley's Cave Of Games Lmaoo we be doing that
We do it when we steam clean but we pour water into a towel then we scrub
that's true, cracks in front of bottom platens shows up because people use cold water poured directly on the platen. Well known issue on taylor 3-platen intelligap grills. Welding is costly.
That crap makes your food taste so bad. That grill cleaner never gets out of the metal.
They probably don't clean it off properly. You should wipe it off twice after cleaning and in the mornings before open. Also should be rinsed off periodically (not with the grill cleaner).
Super
The grill is getting a detox!
I prefer to use a drill with wire brush to remove carbon! Har har ha ha lol. Not for rookies.
I really love to change top platens after such an 'experianced' not rookie cleaner 😂
Fuck those flaps going on with the rod in the back and the clamps. My hands got scars from the kitchen . But that grill was beautiful. I put my meat in it.
I just steam and squigy the grills
your grill probably looks like shit
@@glenn5517 lol
Powerade :)
That grill is still way too dirty 😂
Can a grill glitch
All electronics can glitch, just recently, one of our upper plattens wouldnt work properly, we hadnto get the company to come put and recalibrate it
Where I work they add water when creanning it. I don’t think is the right way.
Whats J'blen, Greetings Kitchen slaves. I challenge you to McDees perfection and post your videos. Let me know on my channel.
I work at a McDonald’s, for our daily cleaning we just use the squeegee and a cup of water
