- Today I review the Power XL Smokeless Indoor Grill Pro. I’ll dive deep into how it works, how it performs & how it cleans up. Is this another As Seen On TV gimmick or a useful kitchen idea. Stay till the end for my thoughts on this product then I want you to drop a comment below & let me know your thoughts on this product!
I have one and love it. Cooks fast, almost smoke free, very controllable. If you're thinking about getting one, just do it.
Will semen stick to it?
I have one too but it is a pain to clean.
@@alexgiles6644 That's a no. The load I used on my spicy-grilled-chicken burned. But on the other hand, the ash of my fallen children added a crunchy-charred texture.
I bought one also. Takes longer to cook food.
Can't beat indoor grilling with 10 inches of snow outside and I don't have an outdoor grill.
Just got one and loving it so far. The water tray helps with cleanup since grease drips into water and is held in suspension. Add a couple of drops of liquid detergent to help emulsify the grease. The lid gap is nothing; it comes from the drip tray being slightly smaller than the frame. It is a grill so the lid helps with splatter but is otherwise unnecessary; it isn't an oven. The fan takes care of the smoke, delivering it to the drip tray.
I have one and it’s awesome! If you know how to cook and use certain seasoning to make it taste smoked or grilled you will love this thing! If you’re expecting an outside grilling experience your a fool!
But consider the way they market it. All proclamations of just that! Maybe you & I know better. But I assure you there are many whom believe it & those whom expect it. As stated, tempered expectations & it’ll suite most just fine.
You’re**
Such a wonderful review. I loved how real you kept it and you basically spoke about everything that other videos will not. Thanks for the review. Keep doing your thing!
Thank you so much!
I have never had a bad ribeye steak from Walmart. I get the choice in the black package. Just as good as a restaurant. They are delicious & worth every penny.
I share the same sentiment! Thanks for stopping by & commenting
@@BigShticks
Thanks for replying.
🐇🐣Have a Happy Easter.🐣🐇
@@donna7788 likewise!
Just received my Power XL love it I’m grilling all the time indoors.
I’m glad you’re enjoying your indoor grill! I have a couple questions for you if you don’t mind. Did you by chance order the “free” griddle? Also, since you state you’re an avid user of your grill, what’s your take on breaking this thing down to clean? Do you find it to be a bit cumbersome or a deterrent to using it? I use mine but just not with any frequency due to all the added steps. The only upside I see to using this thing is that I don’t smoke/smell up my house. I wish I had more to like about it.
@@BigShticks yes I hate having to break it down and clean it, no I didn’t order the free griddle. Nothing is ever perfect. Overall I still like it, doesn’t smell up the house.
I bought one and had 2 dinners Korean BBQ style, meaning cutting the meat in smaller strips and lot of different vegetables, it works great, we had chicken, steak, bacon, shrimp, few kinds of mushrooms, zucchini, asparagus, green pepper, sweet potatoes, cabbage, egg plant...and a few more I forget, it was a lot fun sitting at the table and grilling and eating, and the food is always hot. We will try a sea food dinner this weekend
Very easy to clean too.
Yup, I can see all those things turning out great on this grill. Your table has a plug? That’s kinda awesome!
Got one for christmas and finally got around to cleaning everything up and i'm putting it into service tonight! Another apartment dweller here but i'm lucky enough to have a grill in the backyard. Not really usable during winter months though so this might be just the ticket!
It’s definitely a serviceable unit & I could see how this item might change the game for those whom experience harsh winter weather. I hope it pans out for ya! Thanks for stopping by & commenting!
I love mine..use it all the time..i usually cook fish, chicken breast. Steaks (not that thick) prolly 1 inch thick. Good review
A friend gave me one and now I’m more willing to use it. I agree about kitchen gadgets, soon you’re out room to store on counter top or in cabinets. But they are good for a time or two or three. LoL. Thank you for a solid demonstration.
I'm glad that you dis the cleanup process in your video. Too many times this important aspect is ignored. Great, honest review.
Thank you! It’s easy to keep it real when you’re not a paid spokesman 😂
I have one and the way you can get it to taste like char boil is to put a little liquid smoke on the food, that worked for me
Adding liquid smoke will definitely give your food that added flavor profile that the grill doesn’t. Good suggestion!
Just bought this... I got mine and delivered from Meijer for $20!!! It's awesome. I even got the free grill plate sent from the company for shipping 5.99. Checking here on RUclips for some ideas on what to try. I love your shirt.
Bought it today. I cooked cowboy pork chops and wow...it came out extremely delicious and juicy!! I cooked mine on 350 for 17 minutes on each side with the lid closed and still had the beautiful grill marks!
That is awesome!
we were gifted one of these and we just used it tonight for the first time. It was very nice and the clean up was easy. We did a porterhouse and a delmonico. It preheated quickly, cooled down quite fast.
Just bought myself one today I already love it!
With the exception of breaking it down to clean (it feels like to many steps). I feel the same way.
Does it really taste like grilled food
@@thedriksta I've had mine for a month. I use it quite often because gas grills aren't allowed at my apartment complex. So, I needed the smokeless feature. The meats actually turn out pretty good, but there is no substitution for real flame cooking. It takes some practice to get the heat settings to your liking. I don't regret buying it at all.
Great review! I just bought one on a friends recommendation. I've been a George Foreman user for years but finally said enough when the ump-teenth one just went out. Love the cleanup option with this one, and the large grilling area. Thank you!!!
Thank you! I think just about every household has owned a foreman grill at one point or another & experienced varying degrees of success with it. As far as cooking goes this grill beats the foreman grill hands down. Cleaning up, the foreman grill is way easier.
Great video and love the amount of items you covered including the clean up. Thank you!
Thank you very much!
I have the smaller older one and have used it several times- most I learned about it is to let it heat up for a long time. I use it with water. Once I left the stuff on to long and it smoked up the whole kitchen. But that was my fault. I also throw the parts in the dishwasher sometimes.
I didn’t know they had a smaller one. What I’ve learned from using this item is that if you have a good stove hood it’s not worth the hassle. It just feels like too much of a hassle to break down to clean.
I had mine for about a month now. I live in an apartment where outdoor grills are not allowed. So, this was a great option for the smokeless feature. I use it quite often. Like you, I learned the hard way to not be lazy and let it sit uncleaned for a while between uses. I'm going to get a good plastic scrubber to get into the small crevices.
This is actually a really good grill. I use it while RV camping. Easy to clean and easy to use
We live in the northern midwest, so, there are 3 or 4 months where outdoor grilling isn't feasible. This is a decent replacement for the winter months.
I can see this item being a good alternative
Just got one as an early Christmas present! Can’t wait to try it. Thanks for this making this video, definitely informative!
Appreciate the compliment! It’s great for those times when outdoor grilling isn’t possible.
I got one with a gift card, but have not used it yet; came online to look for helpful videos. I paid for shipping & later received the griddle. I appreciate this gentleman's video & all the comments from all perspectives. Holler back here after you've tried your machine. Good luck & enjoy.
@@BigShticks Where I live, I can't grill outside, so, this grill/griddle recently came into my life. I hope I love it. Even just like it a lot. 🙂 Thanks for the video.
For an as seen on tv product...you can't knock it. Looks pretty good, I definitely agree on the length to actually sear them. It brought back memories of my mom's Farberware open hearth broiler. Smoking up the kitchen lol
Agreed. Because there was literally no smoke to be found & cleans up easy I give it credit. Just wish it got hotter to sear faster. As far as that farberware broiler, I’ve never heard of it. But I’ll tell you this, my mom didn’t need that or any gadget to smoke up a kitchen 😂
@@BigShticks Check it out, 25 year's later I find out it had a rotisserie attachment. You had me rolling 🤣🤣🤣 about your momma!
Thanks so much for the review and great explanation!
Great for cooking in my office! I cook venison and veggies in my office daily and it is simple and delicious. Gets the job done!
Either you’re now working from home or you have the best at work office situation going!
I run a General Contracting company so no working from home for me. I have a large personal office so I just cook my lunch in there when I get in from job sites. This gadget and my coffee bar get me through the day .
@@rexshoemaker740
Pretty cool perk at work! If I tried that at my place of employment, I’m pretty sure I’d be suspended or fired 😂
I'm blessed with such a cool place to work. I cook at least 3x a week n feed the owners of course..everyone loves it.
@@taylorhaas1152
I just guessing but it sounds like your work situation is as a home health nursing aid/caregiver. Do I have that right? I used to be in that line of work. It was incredibly rewarding but also depressing as the patients condition starts to decline. Thanks for watching & commenting!
I wonder if adding some liquid smoke to the water in the reservoir would lend a "smokey" smell/taste? Just an idea to consider. Thanks for making/sharing this video. I'm off to find the infomercial for this thing...should be interesting.
I find your idea intriguing & something I may indeed try. Thanks for stopping by & watching!
I was thinking the same thing. I got one for Christmas and haven't used it yet.
I would imagine adding the liquid smoke to the item being cooked might be more effective…? But, always worth experimenting!
I do, directly to the steaks.
Comes out perfect every time.
@@brianjarosz3667 What brand of liquid smoke, flavor and how do you apply it to your meat cut. Just asking as I'm thinking of diving in...
I am impressed, I will be purchasing one very soon. Thank you.
Well, not the whole story. Just bought mine yesterday. I tried some short ribs today. if you marinate the meat with sticky Teriyaki sauce, you will see light smoke escaping from the grill. Your room will be filled with the Teriyaki smell. If you like it, that is fine. The short ribs were pretty good. I would say it is definitely not zero emission.
I surmise you might be on to something there. Most, if not all of the reviews I’ve seen, in which the user cooked foods that had been sauced or marinated in something w/ high sugar content ALL smoked moderately to profusely. Thankfully, I’ve decided that doing such things is a no no for this grill in my house. So as stated in this video I’m not wowed by this piece in any way. There are uses for it for some folks, but not many for me. My take is that if you have a good kitchen hood or good central house fan this is not a necessity. Its not efficient to use this thing for individual meals do to the amount of steps required to clean it. I’d rather deal with a little smoke & wash one pan than to wash the lid, griddle, heat diffuser & water pan. Then you have to wipe out all of the condensation that collects throughout the unit. To many steps for too little reward IMHO. Thanks for stopping by & commenting!
I love mine so much, I purchased 4 more for Christmas gifts. I use it daily. This review really doesn't do it justice.
It’s all in the eye of the beholder. This review will in no way reflect an opinion shared by all. Just as your opinion I’m sure will not be either. While I agree that some folks will find everyday use for this item, most will not. I for one fall into the later category. Gadgets are made due to specific needs. This gadget serves a purpose & fulfills a hole in the market. But anyone with a good stove & hood or the ability to grill outside will tell you this product is somewhat irrelevant & creates more work in cleaning than food it can cook at any given time. Because I enjoy the ability to grill outside in any fashion that suites me, whenever I see fit. I simply cannot justify the space it occupies. Nor the amount of steps required to clean it. Not to mention the cost & the inability to use it in the event the power goes out. For some that may not be an issue. For me living in California where the lights go out all the time in the summer it’s a big deal. The same thing could be accomplished with a portable butane stove & grill pan with far less cleaning at less than half the amount spent on it. This product may work wonders for you & countless others, that’s just fine. But for those whom don’t share your opinion of the product, in all likelihood it’s because we don’t have the actual need this product intends to fulfill. So forgive me if this review of the product seemed below your excitement level of it. It’s just hard for me to get behind a product I have a hard time getting excited about & see little to no use for in my circumstance.
@@BigShticks you're comments on no way offended me. I agree with it. But for me, we travel, I can take this anywhere there is an electric plug. It in no way replaces the outside grill. Or its flavor, but, I find it more easy to clean than the oven or pans.
Just got one about a month ago. Live in a townhome and we were looking for another option besides an outdoor BBQ. Absolutely love it ! So easy to use and easy to clean. I also ordered the flat grill and paid for S&H and I think I love that grill even more. We have ours set up on a table in our garage so it doesn't take up counter space in kitchen. Love it !
Suggest reading the operation instructions first. Then wash the surfaces before using! The seal allows some air into the devise as the fan pulls the air/smoke into the
area below the grill..
Was surprised you didn't trim some of the fat off the meat?
I have the HSN version 1500 watt . It came with the 2nd flat top grill. I think it has a better grilling surface than the unit you're using.
I use mine daily and enjoy using. It is easy to clean.
Tip before each use spray the catch tray with "Pam" to facilitate easy clean up. The rest cleans up very nicely. Dish washer safe.
I briefly glanced over the operating instructions, at least enough so to operate it. As noted in the video I already “took the liberty of washing down the cook surfaces” prior to use. As for trimming the meat, not entirely sure what I’d be trimming. You don’t pay what I paid for Compart Duroc pork rib chops & trim them. The are already trimmed & dry aged. As for the Wagyu same rules apply. I realize the ribbon was large but to cut that out means cutting off the spinalis or rib cap. Not happening, when I can simply cut around it & not consume it. Btw, great tip on the pam trick. I’ll have to give that one a try. Thanks for stopping by & watching!
Thanks for your response. I've noticed the newer units are not coming with the griddle(flat top) cooking surface. That is sad. I use that more than the Grilling surface.
@@rickhodges1731
I think it may depend on where it’s purchased. My son bought this one at Target. But, I think the ones you can buy at Sam’s club, QVC or Costco come with the griddle. I recently received the “free” griddle after waiting 6 weeks after paying $17 in “shipping” . What a sham! I’ve yet to use the griddle but I surmise it will be of much more use to me than the grill top.
@@BigShticks I got mine at HSN 1500 watt, digital temperature controller, and came both cooking surfaces. I make omelets on the griddle surface. The temperature control makes it easy to cook things very consistently. I grill with it as well even though I have a nice outdoor grass grill.
Terrific product.
Great tip using the Pam spray! I also wonder if lining with foil or parchment paper may work as well?
I just got one and I threw in a full tomahawk steak cooked it for about 10 min on both sides on 450 and I was surprised I well it did definitely recommend buying one of u just wanna cook inside a steak
I bought mine before I read any reviews. When I did read them s lot weren't good. After using mine I think a lot of people that don't like it want a timer on it. I actually like it a lot and I never used a timer anyways evened outside. I'll never use a gorge forman grill or skillet inside again stick up my house when I can use this. Also the first thing I made on it were fillets and they were great
I just bought one. I did the smart thing and went on Facebook marketplace. I found somebody selling theirs that they only used it twice and it looks brand-new for only $30 and it was a local pick up maybe 7 miles from my house.
BOOYA!
Im excited to try out this i got something similar. I live in an apartment complex and the community grills are far away
Did get one for Christmas and it was from my husband. We love grilling and I needed a griddle what she did get me a cast-iron griddle. It’s a little bit long to cover two burners but so I use one burner lol but yes that’s why I’m on here trying to find a good video on how to use this thing. I’ve watched one already and looks easy Peezy I’m excited to use it tonight. We will be cooking sirloin steaks And some ribeye steaks!
My challenge? The sides of thicker cuts...as was seen. The solution? Us a long kebab prong & skewer side-by-side, resting on the edge of the grill, to get the sides done. Yes, it has to be left open for a short period, but the fan is so amazing, there is still no smoke out...maybe just a little fat splatter... Also, it wasn't mentioned, this is ALL dishwasher safe. I tend to put the grill plate in the dishwasher & wash the rest...including the glass cover.
Sounds like you & your grill are getting along just fine. You’re right, I didn’t mention the dishwasher. I rarely use it so it never even crossed my mind. Thanks for stopping by & commenting!
The reason why you’re getting the smell is because you did not re-wash all of your parts. Everything direct from the factory is going to have residue from the manufacturing process whether it be oil’s or any type of lubricant needed for the machinery to produce these parts. It does tell you in the instructions to pre-wash all the parts prior to use. Even your glass will have residue on it from manufacturing. Other than that I enjoyed your video thank you.
@2:29 I explained I already washed all the removable parts prior to use. Despite doing this with numerous products, particularly electric powered products, they all seem to give off a hot plastic smell as they come up to temp. Thanks for commenting & watching!
I think the gap may be an escape for steam. Salt and pepper the night before. Salt gets into the meat much better. Helpful video. I figured it wasn't going to get up to and maintain a true searing temp. BTW, You might want to wash any new appliance being used for food.
He said he had already washed the cooking parts at the beginning of the video.
I got mine at Goodwill for $4.95 and yes it was clean and works amazing!!
I am definitely curious about this! Looks really awesome to use. 👍
Only one way to find out 😝
I live in a very tiny cabin, and I stay up very late and sometimes cokking very late or rather early in the morning. my smoke alarm was going off all the time, and I was curious how this would work because I seriously need smokeless, Thanks for reviewing.
Yup, it’s pretty darn smokeless! Thanks for stopping by & commenting!
I did not get one for Christmas, but I am thinking about buying one......
Well hey, I appreciate you stopping by nonetheless!
I love the grill. It does take a bit longer to cook than using the outdoor grill. I am trying to figure out how to brown the fat on the pork chops and steaks without placing them in the oven.
I'll stick with the pit myself. I prefer old school no matter what time of the year. Good video if you prefer grilling in the kitchen 👍
I’m with you there!
thank you for this excellent & honest review. can you please tell me how many watts this grill has? I have the original power smokeless grill & they came in different watts depending on the unit you bought.
Thanks! Here is the specifics...120v 60hz 1500 watts.
The end product of both pork and beef looked really well tbh!
They were both fantastic, no complaints from me about its rendering.
I got this as a secret santa present for work. Glad to see i gifted a wonderful present especially for someone who lives in the barracks.
Oh man I would’ve killed for one of these in the barracks. We made everything in a microwave, toaster oven & slow cooker 😂. But mostly we BBQd outside or ate at Robin Hood’s sandwiches if the chow hall was closed.
@@BigShticks my guys just sent me a pic of the grill in action moments ago, 2 big porterhouses on it. Chow hall food leaves much to be desired.
@@j0394
Couldn’t agree more!
If you are into meal prepping this would be great to have.
I live in an apartment that doesn’t allow outdoor grills. I’ve had 2 absolutely love mine. Just put the parts in the dishwasher and your good to go.
Is it truly smokeless? My issue in my apartment is the smoke detectors are overly sensitive and I’m looking for an alternative to pan searing.
I just bought this grill and I’m looking forward to using it.
I bought the Cuximax one. Other than wash the water pan, oil drip tray and grill tray, I actually can take the fan out, and carefully use folk to insert some wipes into the fan brades and clean the excess oil (when the fan sucking the smoke it leaves some oil and smell on the fan brades). And wash the entire the out frame in water also.
I have one and love it.
That’s awesome! Nothing better than finding something you love to use in the kitchen.
Seems like a good indoor grill, but how is the clean up, sounds annoying especially with the heating elements below the grilling surface, I still prefer the updated foreman grill with removable grates, easy, just soak in a tub clean wipe down and done😎
I haven’t seen the new foreman & how it breaks down. As for this grill, the heating element fits into grooves on the underside of the grates. So the element never comes into contact with any food or fats. Because it’s smokeless, the trade off is a few extra parts for cleaning/wiping down. All in all, as stated, it’s an ok item for those whom can’t grill outdoors. It hasn’t wowed me in any way.
Great review. Keep your videos comin' !
Appreciate it!
$0.99 hotdogs are goin down. Teriyaki grilled chicken breasts. BBQ grilled chicken drumsticks. Some cheap basics
Sounds good!
I got the Ninja one looks like that with the lid, it's really nice too
Want one because I love grilling but my apartment bans grilling on balconies
I have this on my semi. Love it
Great review! I just purchased one but haven t used it yet. Perhaps the overcook on the steak was from closing the lid? Can't wait to try it.
Let me start by saying thank you! The overcook is indeed from closing the lid which creates refractory heat & thus cooks it from all angles.
Yw and this will be great for filet mignon!
@@amyharris701
I don’t see why not!
Very Good review. Very interesting and and well explained.
I love my Power XL. Use it weekly. Mine did not come with a griddle plate. How can I purchase one?
At 2:34 you can clearly see the phone number & website to visit for the “free” griddle. I use that word lightly 🤣
What an honest opinion!
Since I’m not a paid spokesperson, I can’t think of any reason to be less than honest about it. That doesn’t do anybody any good when trying to make an informed decision prior to purchase.
Testing mine today that i received from mother's day
Enjoy 😉
I have this grill I never put two cups of water you have to allow for any dripping of what you are grilling also clean up is a breeze all you have to do is take it apart and fill you sink with dawn in sink of water put all parts in water also the motor comes out and you can clean base of unit to dawn liquid soap work great
It would be nice if the manufacture made some kind of lean-to device to stand the stakes up, to cook the sides.
That really would be a nice accessory! But I think a small rib rack may suffice
I like it so far ! But Chicken thighs take WAY TO LONG to cook. Fully cooked 150 min at 350 . Is there something I'm dong wrong ? Would the air smokeless unit take the heat away from cooking ? Can I cook chicken without the fan ? Please don't tell me to use the oven !
If you’re cooking bone in skin on this going to be an issue. Simply because it’s going to take an eternity for it to reach a safe eating temp. However, if you go boneless skinless laid out in plastic wrap or ziplock bags & flatten them with a pan. The cook time goes down exponentially & it cooks evenly. People often don’t realize how hot an actual pan on the stove is. On high my pan can easily reach in excess of 600f. We simply say low, med low, med, med high & high. So cooking on something that gives an actual temp in numbers gives us fits because we don’t know the correlation. What I think happens in the grill is the fan probably steals the rising heat that would otherwise refract off of the lid. So you end up with heat coming from only one side & increasing the overall cook time similar to a pan with no lid. I do believe you can run the unit without the fan because it has a separate control. Hope this helps!
Thank you so much for your response it helped me a lot !
Love mine. Use it all the time
Great review and video you did an excellent job showing and explaining
Thank you!
I got the powerxl grill/air fryer combo so im hoping it works the same.
I think if you stay away from cooking items that have sugar based marinades & sauces it’ll work out great.
Great video! Did you get much smoke during the process?
None!
THANKS SO MUCH ❤️❤️❤️
No...THANK YOU!
Philips Avance Infrared grill....Now that's a proper bit of kit.....😉
Definitely taking it camping (campsites with electrical) at state parks .... was easier than lugging around my Blackstone 22...
I can dig it! When we have a campsite with electrical we bring our rice cooker & food saver 😆
Well explain, my husband just got me one
I hope you enjoy it!
Very honest review five stars.
Thanks!
Thank you for your video, I am certainly looking to buy a good indoor grill. It would like to have seen how the lid washes up also. I bought a George Foreman indoor/outdoor grill but found it useless for me.... I am trying to give it away.
Because the lid is fully removable it washes up nicely.
Would wood chips in the water change the taste Great review sir. Thank you
Quite possibly. My thought is that as the water warms it would give off a dank woodsy smell. Not to sure if that would lend a pleasant taste or not.
I also think another more effective way of adding smoky notes would be to turn off the fan & use a Breville smoke gun. But at that point it would just be easier to go outside & grill over coals 😂
Thank you for the review. We just got ours by UPS this Sunday, my Mom tried to test it out by making baked potatoes. First off, the house filled with a terrible burning plastic smell. Did that go away after the first use? or by the second or third time? I noticed a white dusting haze on the sides of the element housing part. Second question, have you tried making baked potatoes on it? If so, how did you do yours: in foil or without? oiled skins? for how long? Thanks! And God bless you working such long shifts as a nurse for both you and the patients in your care. In Jesus name, Amen.
So first, let’s address the smell. After the second cook on it, it was no longer an issue.
Now let’s get to the elephant in the room. This appliance is a grill & not an oven. So baking potatoes is probably not it’s strong suite. If I had to guess what that white dusting was id say it’s the potatoes starch being carried by the radiant heat & smoke fan.
Thank you for the prayer btw! Much obliged.
@Big Shticks What do you think about George Foreman's Grills compared to this one? The reason I'm asking is because I have an older George Foreman's Grill model which is decent but I want to upgrade to something better. I was thinking about upgrading to a newer "George Foreman" model but, now after watching this video I don't know if I should maybe go with this one. I just would like to get your opinion on that.
I’ve had Foreman grills too. Smoked a bunch & cooked from both sides simultaneously. Definitely had its pros & cons. The one that bothered me the most was how the top side never seemed to make contact with the meat if the cut had a bone in it. The best feature was removable cook surfaces (top & bottom). As for this one. Like the Foreman, it too has pros & cons. I like the removable cook surface. But, there’s a bit to much to break down & clean after each cook for my taste (4 pieces). It cooks good though & I wish it got hotter than 450.
@@BigShticks Thanks for your info.
Wish you would have shown how to take the fan out. I flipped it over and removed cover per instructions but couldn't get it out. Glad they warn you blades are sharp.
I haven’t had to do a deep clean yet. But I imagine when I do, I’ll probably film the removal. The instructions seem like it’s a straight forward process. However, I know from experience that generally is far from reality.
Plan on trying mine out tomorrow using lamb chops and Ribeye steak, asparagus and marinated portabellas

Damn, that sounds good!
We’ll explain! Thanks
Thank you!
Great review
Thank you!
Add liquid smoke to the water. Makes things yum.
I was just wondering where does the smoke go? Does it have a filter that needs to be cleaned?
Filter…not in the practical sense. It sucks the smoke into the water pan where it supposedly attaches to the water. Interesting concept but not entirely foolproof.
@@BigShticks Thanks for your quick reply, much appreciated.
Thank you
I just got one for Christmas 🎄 2021
If you want more char and caramelization a little sprinkle of sugar will bring it up. If you don’t like the extra cleanup on the grill, just hit the meat with a flambé torch. Compromises of indoor “grilling”…
Nice big sink!
Indeed I love my farmhouse sink.

Did you put water in the drip pan. Its states in the booklet that it prevents the smoking or help reduce it.
I sure did
So am I better off getting the Hamilton beach brand or should I invest in this one? For 120 bucks I would want the product to not just be “eh ok” like u said lol
Totally understand. For me it doesn’t check many boxes. I have far to many means to accomplish the same thing. If I had an apartment or condo & I was unable to bbq outside. I would certainly put this to good use.
@@BigShticks lol oh ok. Well I’ve had the Hamilton beach indoor grill sitting in my wish list for over a year and for 80 bucks and really good reviews I think I’ll just go ahead and order it. This grill here looks like it does a fine job but so far from watching reviews I haven’t seen it give a char to the food like the Hamilton beach one. Thanks for your review tho 😉It’s almost a tough decision!
@@shaena305 appreciate it!
3:30 i have a non-smokless grill and it is a beast to clean i can only imagine this is worse. All those nooks and crannies will trap grease and likely you'll need a toothbrush to clean it out
Do to all parts they can be tedious to be sure. Really depends on how involved the cook was. If it was a long cook with multiple items or something with high sugar content sauces it will certainly be a chore. But, when pre soaked in hot water & soap it’s not overly difficult. Just a lot of parts to clean.
It cleans easily. I love that as well as the cooking experience.
Vinegar, little baking soda, liquid detergent. Soak for an hour or overnight. Will clean up ina breeze.

Facts!
I live in an apartment so I can’t hve an outside grill. I hope this will be a good option!
It is an alternative for sure. But as stated in the video, it’s never going to replicate the flavors. What it will do however, is give the appearance of being grilled without all the smoke you’d get if done on a textured pan or cast iron skillet.
That’s why I had my wife buy mine. That and she always complains about smoke when I cook. I have a different brand of the same thing. I’ve only used it twice but I like it so far. I can’t wait to really put it to the test. I’m a huge cook but sadly we just went on a diet. Lol I’m gonna get a bunch of meat probably this weekend though and try it out. Normally I make everything In a skillet.
This thing is amazing. It cools perfect everything stays juicy. All you need in your kitchen is this air fryer and a deep fryer and you are set
What brand of black gloves are those? Where did you get them?
I get them at harbor freight tools. They come in different mils (thickness) from 3-12. They are (Hardy) brand powderless black nitrile gloves.
@@BigShticks oh thank you so much. I have a Harbor Freights near me. I will drop in there today. 😀
