I love this cover, it is made out of thick material, and it is holding great on all this rain we been having here in CA.
This is a great chimenea cover. I own a chimenea that is 46.5" tall by 19" in diameter, since this cover is slightly taller I cuffed the bottom and skipped using the ties and cord locks, it has stayed in place all winter and has kept the fuel inside dry and ready for when the snow melts.This cover has seen lots of sun, snow, wind and rain an looks as good as the day we got it.
I use a few of these intermingled in a four hour smoke plan... strong flavor!
The Meco heating element was purchased as a replacement for the one originally provided in my Brinkmann electric smoker.
My friend has grilled for me using one of these things for the last 10 years.It is always a major event, even if only the two of us are eating.Grilled fish is awesome, but rib steaks cut 2 inches thick and grilled bone-down with just a little dry rub to season - that is heaven on earth.His grill has been in the elements for at least the past decade and has only the slight grime of a well-loved, often used outdoor cooking device.The grill surface really does fit in the dishwasher and cleans up perfectly.The mechanism for raising and lowering the grill surface is superbly smooth, a real slick device.It's a great day for America and the world that this product is finally channeled through Amazon.
These were purchased for a gift. I was pleased by the quality. They are quite elegant.
we own the smaller version of this grill, got it last fall. its amazing. some of the absolute best bbq i have ever had. innovative and beautiful and keeps meats and vegetables juicy and delicious. can't wait for the weather to turn warmer so that we can start using it again! (people are constantly asking about it... blows away any other grill your neighbors have. will outlast your car!)
I purchased these as a gift for my son.They are much easier to use than the wooden skewers.The handles are an added bonus.
**WARNING EXTREMELY DANGEROUS**
Does not give much flavor to your foods, have bought better from other sites.
With the power of two AA batteries and the simple holding of two buttons this bug zapper becomes a one handed bug killing machine. So long as you avoid attacking flammable surfaces like curtains, this zapper really does the trick. From insects as small as gnats and fruit flies, to nasty bugs as large as my thumb, they all are extinguished with a flash and a pop.
The planks did burn when used on the grill, despite following directions and soaking them for a very long time.I don't believe this should have happened.However, despite having to put out small flames while cooking, the resulting ceder smoked salmon was one of the best tasting dishes I've ever had off the grill.
I received this yesterday and tried it out on my Weber Kettle grill today.I preheated it as directed and placed some rib eye steaks on the Tuscan grill.Giving each a quarter turn after two minutes produced a very distinctive diamond-shaped pattern that makes your food look very professionally-grilled.At 14" square, you have a fair-sized grilling surface as well.It is heavy to be sure, but cast iron is one of the best grilling surfaces imaginable and the V-shaped grates will assure you that your food will not only taste great, but look really appetizing too!
The Weber Summit line of grills have a design flaw that Weber refuses to consider an issue.Whenever it rains, water runs down the back and enters the internal drip tray, and empties into a drip pan.The pan then overflows the greasy mess onto the cabinet floor. Furthermore, the drip pan cannot be easily removed without almost totally spilling the greasy mess.
This is a terrific tongs for grilling......can be used for hot dogs or a steak. Simpler & long lasting is better for me!!! Bamboo handles are eay to clean.
Upon unpacking the legs did not fit due to the collars being smashed during shipment. This was not a big deal and was easy fixed. Then I started assembling the grill and noticed that the handle was not level with the grill. Once assembled it was about a half inch out of level. The front meat shelve on the outside of the grill hung down about two inches out of level and would not hold a tray of food without it sliding off. Last but not least the top grill in the burner box would not sit level. The last three items could not be fixed without the use of some cutting tools and a welder. I thought for a second that I should fix it and move on. I later decided to just send it back.
Sadly I returned this grill the moment I opened it.The construction, thin metal gauge and welding is very poor.In concept, it's a great idea but the execution of the product is bad.My biggest concern was that the whole BBQ could tip over because of the unstable legs.The claimed 14GA steel is not accurate, it's more like 18GA or even 20GA.I think this BBQ would burn out or rust out in a season or two.The grate is cheaply made as is the lifting mechanism.I really wanted this to work for me but it just wasn't made very well.I bought the Weber kettle grill instead and am very happy with the decision.If you buy the Weber kettle, get the Gold version and not the silver.The Gold version has an ash catcher that actually works.
Dear Amazonians,
Kingsford is the very best charcoal by a long shot.I have used many brands, and there's nothing even close to it out there.
I have only used this once but was amazed at how much smoke poured out of the thing.It sits directly on the burners so should work on any type of grill.I have a char broil commercial series and found that the other smoker boxes weren't big enough to sit on the burners and effectively smoke.This sits on half the grill and really pours out the smoke.I actually had to be careful opening the lid cause smoke kept going in my eyes.Definitely the best smoker box I have found.Pretty excited to try it on ribs.
I have seen a number of bbq in my time, and have the pleasure to review this product. I am so pleased I chose this particular product, i was of course slightly aprehensive but am a firm believer in the fact that if you buy cheap, you buy twice!. I will not need to but another bbq for years to come. The most important factor with this baby, is that it never ever gets used without guest's asking more about it, where it came from e.t.c. It never dissapoints. Great product, am most thankfull.
I purchased all of the smoker chip flavors.All of them except the hickory were worth it.
I bought one of these when I got my first grill. The very first time I used it the black finish burned off on both the inside and the outside of the chimney, and it began to rust. Just bought a Weber chimney, and it is far superior.
I use it to take all sorts of stuff out of my little electric oven as well as out of the big gas oven. It's really big and really handy....and it's so sturdy, you could probably lengthen the handle and shovel snow with it --- although I wouldn't do that. We don't have much snow in South Texas.
Things I wish were different: Screw off mop head, handle should be washed by hand.
Good, basic camping/grill set. The hooks on all the pieces make it easy to hang/store.
I bought one of these a couple years ago and it really works great.One caveat, however.Our old house had a lot of shady trees over the back deck where I kept the kaddy with my grill.The patio on our new house is in direct sunlight and after one season, my kaddy had become so brittle, it cracked when it tipped over and is now falling apart a chunk of plastic at a time.It is rain proof, but I wouldn't advise storing it in direct intense sunlight for months at a time.Make sure you have a nice shady spot to put it in.Mine lasted for two years at our old house, but after one summer in our new house, it needs to be replaced.Still a great product though, and I will be buying a new one, just keeping it inside.
This is the first time we have smoked with anything but Bradley bisquettes. The Jim Beam provide for a much more intense and wonderful smokey flavor. Although I wouldn't use them for everything it was great for our brisket.
I purchased 2 for an outdoor wedding reception to protect the food.They were easy to use (open and close)and kept the bugs away!highly recommend!
It works perfectly well.I have two minor complaints.One is that there is no real on/off switch.If you have it plugged in, and the heat dial at minimum, it still heats.That's important to be aware of.It's not your ordinary toaster, which doesn't do anything unless you push down the slider.Second problem is MUCH less important.The clip that's supposed to hold the top and bottom together in storage is totally worthless.Just don't depend on it.
I received a grill for xmas, this reminded me of the gift I wanted so badly! It is so cute, it opens and closes, great quality.
This product came with the wrong nuts.They were square and needed to be hex so could not use to put together handle. So had to buy hex nuts to put handles together. Also hardware for handles needed to be bent in place because the tolerances were off by about 1/2 inch. Hope that it cooks better than it assembles.
We purchased our grill from a local Bar-B-Que shop.We chose it over the Green Egg because it came with more accesories as part of the price. (Pizza stone, gloves, ash scraper, parafin starters.I sold my kettle grill and put the money toward this lovely grill.
Three basic issues with the grill:
One of the handles on the pan was damaged.The porcelain coating was peeling off on one handle which also appeared to be bent out of shape.I needed to use the product right away and did not discover this defect until the same day I used it.
This basket-style Rotisserie is wonderful - it handles most meats far easier than a spit.You can do whole chickens, split chickens, game hens, flat ribs, and very small roasts.You do not have to worry about balance and counter weights.You can fit the disassembled basket into the dishwasher.I love it.
The cooking ca'jun smoker is a wonderful smoker. I really enjoy using this smoker to grill all kinds of meat, fish and corn on the cob, it really does the job.My whole family like my grilling on the Cook'n Ca'jun Smoker.
This grill is ok for light usage. It is cheaply constructed but will do the job if not over used. Legs don't line up during assembly requiring some force. But what can you expect from a cheap item made in China.
This item works exactly as described - and looks quite pretty to boot!I use it to keep those little fruit flies you occasionally get in the kitchen off my baked goods, etc. and also outside when we eat on the patio.
This item has two problems:
You should offer a small pot holder that would slide over the handle. The handle gets pretty hot. But other wise its very good. You can turn the kabobs over and grill on 4 sides without the kabobs turning like it does on the wooden sticks. Also you can cook the slow cooking food first, then add the fast cooking food to the basket. Then all the food would done at the same time.
The Weber Smokey Mountain (WSM) is really the king of the bullet smokers.You may be tempted to go with a cheaper Brinkmann model, and if your budget just can't afford the WSM, then you can do some prefectly acceptible bbq onthe brinkmann.
When it came time for me to buy a grill, I looked immediately to the Weber Genesis series, mainly because my family has always owned Webers and we've never been disappointed by them. My dad's prior Genesis grill lasted about 10 years before needing to be replaced, and likely would have lasted longer if it weren't for the harsh South Florida climate (the humid air down there is really rough on anything metal that's left outside).
For affectionado's of true grilling, this charcoaler is a little powerhorse.It has worked none stop with minimal up keep.Stays outside all winter without missing a beat.No hassle starting charcoal using strike a lights and can adjust heat.Cannot imagine ever using a gas grill after owning this gem and after tasting food off this grill neither can family or friends.It has many converts.
Very savory and tasty.Have used it as a rub on steaks and a butterflied leg of lamb.Haven't tried it as a marinade.Packet is a little on the small side, but you don't need a whole lot. Not too salty, which is a plus.
I purchased the charcoal lighter basket to use in conjunction with my Dutch oven.I was definitely not disappointed.It is easy to use, and my briquettes were ready in no time!The wood handle and heat shield enables me to safely transport and place the briquettes where I need them without being burned.Also, it allows me to distribute as few or as many briquettes as I desire.This is wonderful a product and I enthusiastically recommend it!
This is very easy to use.The multiple height options make this versitile.Great for items that are small and might fall through the grates of the grill or items that are difficult to turn or stick to the grill.Good bang for the buck.
This grill and smoker is as good if not better than the Big Green Egg! But the price tag is almost half of the Egg.The Bubba Keg Grill will pay for itself because it does not use very much charcoal at all.It is so efficient that it only takes 2 or 3 handfulls of charcoal to cook on and you can reuse and relight was is left over.You will love this grill/smoker once you learn how to cook on it. It is so amazing at what it can do because it is very well insulated and it comes with eveything you need to use it not like the Ceramic grills in which you have to buy all of the accessories for a total price of about $1200.00. The Bubba Grill/Smoker price tag is only $599.00 plus tax.This is a steal!
I purchased this grill directly from Hasty Bake in Tulsa, OK.The staff is friendly and available to answer questions.I was skeptical about the grill and the performance, but have been very pleased.The ability to raise and lower the firebox is a great feature and I am making the best steaks.I typically steam veggie and cook a steak every Saturday and Sunday, rain or shine.I have thoroughly enjoyed this grill.The only two complaints I have is the paint peeling on the inside and amount of time it takes for the grill to cool down.After about 5 uses, the paint had peeled from the door and the rear of the firebox area.I already see rust forming where the paint is gone.For the price, I did not plan to scrape and repair the grill so soon after the purchase.Maybe should have gone with the all stainless.Second, when I am done and I close all of the vents and lower the firebox, it takes a while for the coals to burn out.Typically, only ash is left.I was hoping when all of the vents were shut, the fire would go out prior to the coals burning out... preserve the coals for the next use.The upside is, it does not take many coals to maintain a consistent heat for extended periods of time.At least I am not wasting too much.Aside for these two things, I am very happy.
If you love slow and low BBQ but only have a Weber kettle, this is the product for you. I can now control the temperature to as low as 185 degrees and have it stay there for up to 6 ½ hours, without having to add any charcoal.The water reservoir does need to be filled approximately every 70 minutes but the BBQ turns out nice and juicy, just like the pros do it.
