Sodium Hydroxide is Lye. You can get it in crystal form from EBAY for about $5.00.
WARNING!
THIS STUFF WILL BURN YOUR SKIN AND CAN CAUSE BLINDNESS IF IT GETS IN YOUR EYES. Wear protective clothing, gloves and eye were!!

Mix 1 part lye crystals to 20 parts water in a plastic spray bottle and apply to the grill. Allow it to sit for 10 minutes and scour with an abrasive pad (Scotch-Brite Red works well). Rinse with water and repeat the procedure if necessary.
