When the Thanksgiving turkey or Christmas roast has the oven spoken for, move a few of the sides to your Kenyon electric grill. From green beans with a little char to garlic-Parmesan potatoes with crisp edges, these eight recipes will help you round out the holiday table and free up some oven space.

Grilled Brussels Sprouts with Pistachios and Pomegranate

Crunchy pistachios and juicy pomegranate seeds brighten up grilled Brussels sprouts. The red and green look right at home on a Christmas table, and the tart pomegranate is a welcome bite alongside a rich Thanksgiving dinner.

.

Grilled Green Beans

A little char brings out the flavor of green beans while keeping them crisp-tender. They’re a simple green side to serve alongside turkey, ham, or a roast.

.

Grilled Carrots

The grill brings out the natural sweetness of carrots and gives them a little char. Pile them onto a platter for an easy side that goes with just about anything on the holiday table.

Grilled Carrots recipe

.

Grilled Hasselback Potatoes with Garlic and Parmesan

Thin slices give these potatoes plenty of edges to crisp on the grill while the centers stay tender. Garlic and Parmesan tuck into the folds, so every bite gets a little of both.

Sweet Potato Bacon Bites

Sweet potatoes and salty bacon make a sweet-and-savory bite. Set out a platter while guests are waiting for dinner, or serve them alongside the turkey for a bite-sized take on a Thanksgiving favorite.

.

Grilled Sweet Potato Rounds

Serve tender grilled sweet potato rounds over a bed of Greek yogurt and spoon on a red onion relish with lemon, mint, and Fresno chile. The cool yogurt and bright relish balance the sweetness of the potatoes.

.

Grilled Honey Butternut Squash

Honey brings out the natural sweetness of butternut squash, and the grill adds a little char. It’s a colorful side for the Thanksgiving table and pairs just as easily with a Christmas ham.

Grilled Pearl Onions

Pearl onions turn mellow and sweet on the grill. Spoon them around sliced turkey or a roast so guests can pick up a few with each serving, or pass them in a small bowl with the other sides.

Grilled Pearl Onions recipe

While the turkey or roast finishes in the oven, put a side or two on the grill.

By the time the main dish is carved, you’ll have something hot off the grill to pass around the table.

Who decided Thanksgiving had to be all turkey, stuffing, and mashed potatoes? This year, we’re going rogue, one grill mark at a time. Whether you’re hosting a Friendsgiving, cooking for two, or just craving something fresher than the usual carb-fest, these recipes prove that flavor doesn’t need tradition’s permission slip.

Every dish here was made on a Kenyon Grill, where you get all the caramelized edges, smoky notes, and golden crispness, no open flame and no oven juggling required.

Appetizer: The Best Way to Use Up Leftovers

Thanksgiving Grilled Flatbread

When the big day’s over but the fridge is still full, this flatbread is your new tradition. Layer your favorite Thanksgiving leftovers — turkey, cranberry sauce, roasted veggies, even mashed potatoes, and let the grill do the rest. Crispy, melty, and way better than another sandwich.

 Mains: The New Center of Attention

Turkey Burgers with Cranberry Mayo & Brie

All the Thanksgiving flavor you love — in handheld form. Tart cranberry mayo meets creamy Brie, and suddenly you’ll wonder why you ever needed a carving knife.

Pork Chop with Pumpkin Demi-Glace

Rich, savory, and just a touch sweet — this dish could make even the turkey jealous.

Mustard-Rubbed Rack of Lamb

For when you’re ready to make an impression. The grill locks in that golden crust and tender interior — no fancy oven roasting required.

Apple-Stuffed Grilled Ham Steaks with Honey Bourbon Glaze

Smoky, salty, sweet, and just a little boozy — basically everything you want from a main dish at once.

 Sides: Because You Can’t Have a Holiday Without Them

Grilled Brussels Sprouts with Pistachios & Pomegranate

Crispy on the outside, tender inside, and jeweled with pomegranate seeds. Even Brussels-sprout skeptics will go back for seconds.

Grilled Honey Butternut Squash

Sweet, sticky, and caramelized — a simple side that tastes like autumn comfort.

Desserts & Morning-After Treats

Apple Pie Bites

All the comfort of apple pie — none of the crust drama. These are bite-sized happiness straight from the grill.

Pumpkin Pancakes

Thanksgiving morning or the morning after, these pancakes bring cozy spice and golden edges to your holiday brunch. Top with maple syrup, whipped cream, or leftover cranberry sauce if you’re feeling bold.

 A New Tradition in the Making

Whether you’re skipping the turkey or just shaking up your menu, these dishes prove that “Thanksgiving food” is whatever you make it. Warm, unexpected, and made entirely on the grill — no smoke alarms, no stress, and no rules.

If you’re ready to start your own Alt Thanksgiving tradition, grab your ingredients, fire up the your Kenyon Grill, and let the holiday creativity begin.

An award-winning cooktop series, electric grills, and better meals on the water—there was plenty to talk about when Kenyon joined the Yacht Kings TV Podcast at IBEX 2026.

Recorded at the IBEX Studio in Tampa, Florida, Kenyon’s Mike Reischmann sits down with with host Dennis Foster to put our Signature® Induction Cooktop Series and its 2026 IBEX Innovation Award win in the spotlight, alongside a broader discussion of Kenyon’s approach to onboard cooking and electric grills.

The Signature® Series earned the IBEX Innovation Award in the Furnishings and Interior Parts category. Its distinctive matte black glass-ceramic surface and versatile Bridge function bring refined design and cooking flexibility to the galley.

A great hotel amenity starts with the guest experience, and thoughtful planning behind the scenes.

In a recent Green Lodging News guest column, Danielle Owens, Account Manager at Kenyon International, explores how fire code considerations are influencing the design of hotel rooftop kitchens, pool decks and shared cooking spaces.

“Fire Code is Quietly Redesigning Hotel Amenity Kitchens” examines why electric grilling deserves a place in the hospitality design conversation.

For hotel owners, developers and designers, the article highlights several considerations:

• Flexible amenity planning: Electric grilling can create opportunities in spaces where open-flame equipment presents installation challenges.
• Everyday convenience: Features such as automatic shut-off and easy-to-clean cooking surfaces can support shared guest amenities.
• Long-term operations: Moving away from propane and charcoal eliminates fuel-tank handling and on-site combustion.
• Early coordination: Considering electrical needs during design can help teams plan more effectively.

At Kenyon, we help hospitality teams explore cooking solutions that fit their properties and their guests.

Read the full article on Green Lodging News for Danielle’s perspective on the changing hotel amenity kitchen.

Kenyon International is proud to announce that the Signature® Induction Cooktop Series has been named a 2026 IBEX Innovation Award winner in the Furnishings and Interior Parts category.

The award was presented on October 6, 2026, at the International BoatBuilders’ Exhibition and Conference (IBEX) in Tampa, Florida. This year, just 12 Innovation Award winners were selected from 100 entries submitted by exhibiting marine industry companies.

Kenyon’s Signature® Induction Cooktop Series was recognized for its innovative cooking technology and refined design, including its distinctive matte black glass-ceramic surface and versatile Bridge function.

Judge Tony Esposito said:

“Kenyon’s new matte black glass-ceramic cooktop eliminates reflective glare, fingerprints and visible dings from daily use; but as a cook, the real innovation is the ‘bridge’ feature that spans 2-burners and provides even heat across a flat-top griddle or oversized pasta pot, further blurring the line between cooking onboard and at your abode.”

The Signature® Series combines sophisticated design with advanced induction technology to bring residential-style cooking performance onboard. Available in multiple configurations, the series features Bridge functionality, intuitive Slide Touch controls and Kenyon’s SilKEN® Mat for added stability while cooking.

We’re honored to have the Signature® Induction Cooktop Series recognized among the marine industry’s most innovative products of 2026.

Anglers know the feeling: the boat’s back on the trailer, the sun’s going down, and all you want is a good meal before the next day on the water. That’s exactly the scenario Bassmaster writer Solomon Glenn had in mind when he reviewed the Kenyon G2 Electric Grill for the outlet’s Gear Reviews section, published September 9, 2026.

The big takeaway:

Glenn came in with the usual skepticism about electric grills, expecting a slow-heating appliance that merely warms food rather than actually grilling it. The G2 Grill™ changed his mind. He found it reaches searing temperatures within minutes, leaves real grill marks on steaks, burgers, chicken, and vegetables, and does it all from a standard 120-volt outlet, no propane tank or charcoal required.

“When I used to think of electric grills, I pictured a tiny appliance that took forever to heat up and simply cooked food rather than actually grilling it. The G2 completely changed my perspective. It’s as simple as plugging it in, turning it on, and within minutes you’re ready to grill with the same searing temperatures you’d expect from a traditional gas grill.”

What stood out in the review:

•  Fast, even heat. Kenyon’s concealed heating element keeps temperatures consistent across the cooking surface and largely eliminates the flare-ups that can char food on traditional grills.
• Plug-and-play portability. At 37 pounds, with no fuel to haul, Glenn called it an easy fit for the lake, the cabin, the dock, or the campground; anywhere there’s an outlet.
•  Indoor use. Because it runs smokeless with no open flame, the G2 Grill™ is approved for indoor cooking, something Glenn pointed to as a standout feature for apartments, campers, or cabins where a traditional grill isn’t an option.
• More cooking space. The G2 Grill™ offers 213 square inches of grilling surface, which the review notes is 35% more than Kenyon’s popular City Grill.
• Marine-grade build and easy cleanup. Stainless steel construction is built for harsh outdoor conditions, and the non-stick grate plus removable drip tray make post-meal cleanup simple. The drip tray doubles as a flavor booster, since anglers can add beer, wine, or juice to it to create steam while cooking.

Why it matters:

Glenn’s closing “Angler’s Insight” ties it back to what fishing trips are really about: the travel, the people, and the meals that cap off a day on the water. For anglers who want that same at-home grilling experience wherever the trip takes them, and a backup plan when the weather turns, the G2 Grill™ is positioned as a grill that keeps dinner plans on track.

A lifelong gas-and-charcoal guy just called our City Grill®  a “Game-Changer.

.

.

James Hills of ManTripping.com has grilled on gas and charcoal his whole life. He expected the Kenyon City Grill® to be a compromise. A few cook sessions later, he was a convert.

.

What won him over first was Kenyon’s history — precision marine instruments since 1931, now one of North America’s largest makers of marine electric grills and glass cooktops. Once he saw it as marine-grade engineering with a grate on top, the plug stopped feeling like a shortcut and started looking like serious value next to a pricier built-in.

.

Then came the food. Rated to 600°F and hitting 550°F in about five minutes, the City Grill® delivered heat Hills called on par with a typical gas grill — enough for real crust on thick bone-in pork chops, roasted baby potatoes, and a few sausages besides. Because nothing but the food itself is cooking, it ran nearly smokeless too; a little water in the drip tray, per Kenyon’s own tip, turned drippings to steam instead of smoke.

.

Two more details sold him: it plugs into a standard outlet with built-in GFCI protection, and the exterior stays cool enough for tight kitchen counters. For Hills, who lives in a condo where charcoal, gas, and even propane storage are banned, that means dinner in about ten minutes flat — no waiting on a community grill.

.

His takeaway: at a price on par with a comparable gas grill, there’s no real reason left not to grill, indoors or out, all year.

.
