How to choose a grill for a summer residence

Before purchasing a grill for a suburban area, you need to clarify some details. Vladimir Golovanov, cook and picnic organizer, told Healthy Food Near Me how to choose the right grills for summer cottages. He advises to pay attention to the following points.

Design

Grills are floor, stationary, desktop. Some models are equipped with wheels. It all depends on the conditions in which you are going to cook. It is better to choose collapsible models that are easy to transport and store. You can also use table grills – they are small. It is convenient when the device is on wheels – so you can easily move it around your site.

Type of grill

The most affordable type of fuel today is wood and coal. They are most advantageous in terms of price-quality ratio.

• On the coal (wood) the grill turns out delicious meat dishes, everyone’s favorite shish kebabs. Please note that for thin bowl grills, you only need to purchase ready-made coals. When burning firewood, the material may be damaged.
• Gas grill, which can be connected to the cylinder, is always ready for use. It is very easy to cook on it. The intensity of the fire can be changed with a regulator, and in good models of this type, dishes are cooked not on gas, as such, but on the heat from stones heated by fire. But be prepared that on gas you may not achieve the characteristic “smoky” smell.
• Electric grills, as a rule, have a cover and a fan. They are expensive, and this is not the most suitable option. But the plus is that you can use them indoors, although the aromas, of course, will not be the same.

Material

The vast majority of grills today are made of metal – steel, cast iron, copper, and so on. This is very reliable, the main thing is that the parts have a good thickness.

• Steel grills relatively cheap, but the greater the thickness, the higher the price. 3-5 mm is the best option for a durable grill. It is important that fireproof paint is also applied to it.

• Cast iron and copper models keep heat better, but they have a higher cost.

• There are also ceramic grills are more environmentally friendly options. In addition, these grills look beautiful. In a ceramic grill, you can make pizza, smoke meat, bake pies. But remember that ceramics are easier to damage than metal.

Equipment

Grilling is not the cheapest pleasure. It’s good when for the money paid you get not only the device itself, but also important components for it. So, the presence of tongs and grips will be a plus. Some manufacturers include heat resistant gloves. Grids of various types, grills for dishes and coal – wonderful! Models with a spit are already a luxury. Be sure to check what is included when buying.

Functionality

In the characteristics, you need to pay attention to the functions that your universal brazier is capable of performing. Temperature control, thermometer, smoking options – the more options, the better. The main thing to remember is that a grill that can do anything will not cost a couple of thousand rubles – you will have to pay more for a quality and reliable product.
