Just Picked this up from Lowes and for an "entry level" grill, it's pretty badass


(tiny dog was not included in purchase)

All stainless steel construction, Stainless grates, rotisserie and searing burners, internal lights for night grilling.....damn sexy

I'm in the market for a new gas grill. I've had my eye on a Weber, but they're so damned expensive.

Nice!  [thumbsup]  [bacon]

I think your dog has laid claim to it!!


I know you called it an "Entry Level" grill (which I think it hardly appears to be), but I was able to find that the "Jedi Master Grill" is this one:

I wish I used our grill more often. I've gotten pretty good at grilling salmon on cedar planks (turns out awesome), but beyond that, I haven't been too adventurous.

Have fun with it and don't blow your house up like the guy in Phx did last week!! (your wife would be really angry if you did that!!!)

djrashonal

salmon on cedar planks? is that on charcoal or gas grill? That sounds delicious - we love salmon (especially the filets from Sunflower)
Wanna share the secret?

Sure!

We learned that you if you use cedar planks (purchased from Costco or perhaps Fry's as a 3 or 6 pack of planks) that you can make very savory salmon on the grill.

The key is to soak the planks (submerged) for 4 hours (NO LESS) prior to grilling otherwise they'll catch fire! Because of their length, I actually have to soak them in the bath tub (cleaned first of course!) under a big pots filled with water to hold them down.

Then, slap some salmon on them, some veggies, and seasonings (sliced lemons and fresh cut rosemary are awesome) and lay the full planks on the grill. Check on it periodically, mist the edges with water if the planks start to burn (but they are not reusable).

I always err on the side of safety with fish and cook it a bit longer - but it always turns out great!

Serve with a bed of wild rice and you're golden!   [thumbsup]





...k, now I'm hungry...

We've gone through a couple of gas grills, and finally bit the bullet and bought a Weber. Absolutely love it, and highly recommended  [thumbsup]

Another salmon recipe on the plank to try
salt/peper-butter-brown sugar-fresh dill
yummy

i love my (newly modded) char-griller, but also want to add a gas for a quick grill
havent decided on another weber (last one only lasted 15 years)
or a small Cuisinart that i can also use camping.

the kitchenaid looks very nice...but i will want something smaller for my backup grill  ;)

Re: the salmon

I love salmon on cedar planks too. I'll pick up some thin, skin on, filets, lay them skin side down, a light olive oil rub with salt & pepper, rosemary, & sliced lemons (thai peppers for a lil kick). I'll make it when I go camping all the time. And, just use the cedar planks as plates. Goes great with some grilled asparagus.

Personally I'd rather take the cover off of the charcoal weber in the corner there but the convenience of the gas grill is great.  Now you got me thinking about grillin!

we've got a weber onetouch and love it, but the wife was worried about carcinogens, so I used it as an excuse for an awesome new grill....though I do love the charcoal flavor!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: "In the end, no one gets out alive".

That being said, if avoiding checking out early means you get new toys - then by all means!!

internal lights for night grilling...

That sounds like an amazing feature.  Never seen it before but I bet it will come in handy.

I just did THIS:


on an entry level grill.  Good enough for one person for a week!
