The Groover
The Groover Cleaning Pads are the easiest and quickest way to dissolve food and grease for a spotless clean grill. No rinsing needed. The Groover pads are individually wrapped grill-cleaning pads that are pre-saturated with heat activated cleaner, designed to be used on a heated grill. Attaching easily to the bristles of any grill brush, when applied to a heated grill the cleaner flows from the pad to attack burnt-on grease and grime to bring grill grates back to new again. Works on any grill grate – stainless steel, porcelain, cast iron, etc. The Groover is food safe and leaves no chemical smell or taste, so grilling can begin immediately following cleaning.

Specially formulated accompanying grilling oil won’t burn off like conventional cooking sprays. Specially designed fiber of the wipes allows them to be used on heated grill grates for optimal no-stick performance. Easily give food distinct grill marks without any worry of food sticking. Makes achieving professional results simple and convenient. Not flammable like spray products.

Everyone loves food! If you bring the food, the friends will follow!
We used to live in Gainesville and our friends had a house near the campus. It was always so much fun to go over there and tailgate there.
I used to work at a Boy Scout camp and the staff camped out in Teepees. I would have fun watching the squirrels climb up the teepee and slide back down. They would do that for hours. It was hilarious.
My favorite tailgating memory is actually from a concert back in 1995 – my boyfriend at the time and I went to see The Grateful Dead, and tailgated in the parking lot of the venue with a lot of very colorful characters!
