Daryl Smith of “Bad Beast Barbecue” has been grilling and smoking foods for several years. He and his wife are both from Louisiana and love southern food. The YouTube channel shows techniques in using different types of grills and smokers as well as recipes from down south, some passed to from generations of family members.

Daryl is a fan of the Kenyon Revolution Grill as he can use it indoors to make his videos and escape the outdoor heat. Click for Bad Beast Barbecue’s review of the Revolution Grill

This Old House‘s review on the City Grill

“This portable plug-in grill creates no smoke or flames, so it can even be used indoors. The concealed electric heating element prevents flare-ups while helping the 155-square-inch cooking area reach temperatures as high as 600°F in just 7 minutes. That’s plenty of heat to make those telltale grill marks, plus you can remove the nonstick grate and toss it in the dishwasher when you’re done.”

Pop Sugar’s review on the City Grill

“And now, for something a little different: the Kenyon City Grill ($475). It may not immediately appear to be the conventional tech product you’re used to, but it’s got some of the most high-tech power that we’ve damn well ever seen. This grill doesn’t run on fire or gas; instead, it plugs right into the wall and brings grilling right to any home or apartment, without the hassle of finding an outdoor space (or, in many cases, trying to avoid breaking the terms of your lease by getting caught while grilling out.) It’s the tech that powers some of the most savvy cuisine – think of any place that makes food outdoors, and that’s exactly where this came from – and now, if you’re anything like me, it can be an invaluable part of your home kitchen, too.”

It must be a guy thing… get a Texan! Its a big unit and functions perfectly on the 6’ x 12’ Balcony. Fabricated a pair of metal wall brackets to keep the space below open and spacious. Happiness at the location!

Robert put the Texan in his condo!

It’s that time of year where we get together with friends and family for a good American barbecue! Turn up the grill, put on the hot dogs, mix together the potato salad, crack open a cold one, and put on THE PERFECT PLAYLIST!

No party atmosphere is complete without music! We put together the perfect playlist with everyone’s favorite summertime picnic songs!

PARTY ON!

Whether it’s red or white, find out which foods pair best with your favorite wines.

 

All Kenyon grills come equipped with a drip tray feature to add liquid to prevent smoke and flareups from grease while you grill.

Due to the proximity of the tray to the heating element, the liquid will get warm and some of it will evaporate, which creates steam thus infusing a flare of flavor  into your food.

Water will do just fine, but “wine not” bring your grilling to a whole new level by adding in some of you favorite wine.


Here are some suggestions on what wines to pair with your grilled foods:

 

Cabernet Sauvignon– Steak

Chardonnay– Tilapia, Chicken, Turkey

Merlot- Lamb, Salmon, Tuna

Pinot Grigio– Shellfish

Pinot Noir– Ham, Pork

Zinfandel– Ribs


Pop open a bottle, add a little wine to your grill and a WHOLE lot in your glass!

Sip, sip hooray!

The Manual wants you to have your best summer yet, so they’ve compiled a list of portable grills that fit your adventurous lifestyle.

 

“There’s nothing like a great meal to complement a great day, and there are few better ways to make a day great than by spending it outdoors with friends and family.

When you prepare fine foods at a campsite, picnic on a beach, or just hang out in your own backyard, cooking is part of the larger experience and becomes more of a pleasure than a task. That is, so long as you have a decent portable grill on which to do the cooking. I can tell you from plenty of personal experience that trying to cook with inferior equipment while you’re far afield is a recipe for white hot rage and under-cooked burgers.

If all you need to do is heat up water to rehydrate packs of camping food, then by all means, stick with a pocket-sized camp stove. If you want to grill up some ribeye, burgers, or salmon fillets while you’re away from it all, then one of these five portable grills will certainly serve all your al fresco cooking needs.”

 

 


THE CITY GRILL 

“So for this one, you’ll need an outlet, limiting you to campsite with facilities, an RV, a cabin with power, or your own backyard. But what you lose in suitability for use in remote locations, you gain in amazing performance. This plug-in electric grill could well be the only grill you use at home thanks to its superb heat control and the high temperatures it can reach. You can clean the grate by hand or in the dishwasher; the drip trays last for many uses, but can be tossed once overly soiled. Shout out to Kenyon for keeping things simple: the grill is controlled with just one knob, which features an off position and eight different heat settings ranging from low to high. Also, this is the “Official Grill of the Boston Red Sox,” just FYI.”
