Did not read all the replies. I have use a "toilet" plunger and also use my garden hose. I would try the hose first. It puts more pressure than just running the water. I also will file both sinks with water before starting either of the above solutions. Helps rinse the stuff down the pipe.
Potato skins and coffee grounds were my problem so they go into the trash.
Never had to take the pipes apart to clean.
I also run the disposal when I am doing the above.
