CLINTON, CT – Kenyon International Inc, a specialty electric grill manufacturer, recently introduced its newest product, the SilKEN® Grill. Ideal for those grilling in small spaces with little storage area, the SilKEN® Grill boasts a collapsible lid to ensure consumers don’t have to compromise the quality of their grilled food due to limited space. In addition to its compact size, the grill’s lid also stays cool to the touch and prevents accidental burns due to its silicone lid.

With the introduction of the SilKEN® Grill, Kenyon continues its mission to provide top of the line, innovative grilling options to its customers. Whether on a boat, in an RV, a small apartment or even your backyard, the SilKEN® Grill is perfect for all. The use of silicone allows the grill lid to collapse to a height of just two inches for easy use and storage. The lid and other parts of the grill, such as the grate, detach for quick and easy cleaning.

“The SilKEN® Grill is the latest addition to our line of unique grilling products that go beyond the traditional backyard BBQ,” said Phil Williams, president at Kenyon International, Inc. “For our customers looking to grill in a small kitchen or on the open water in their boat, this new product is the ultimate convenience and completely solves the issues associated with traditional oversized grills.”

The SilKEN® Grill’s lid is made from high temperature silicone, which features an insulation quality that allows for both fast and even distribution of heat. The handles are also reinforced so that they remain cool to the touch throughout use. As with all Kenyon grills, its newest product is smokeless and flameless, an important safety feature for consumers looking to use the grill indoors or in other non-traditional grilling environments.

“We originally began manufacturing grills after realizing the boating industry lacked safe marine grilling options, and ever since then we’ve been dedicated to seeking out new ways to improve the grilling experience,” adds Williams. “After realizing so many of our customers utilized our products in unique grilling environments, where space is often limited, we sought to create an even more efficient and space-saving product. The SilKEN® Grill is truly a game changer for our customers.”

The SilKEN® Grill is designed for use in any environment, with a focus on efficiency in small spaces. The new model is made with marine grade stainless steel and features a sleek Space Grey color lid.

Kenyon City Grill
Those of us who live in urban areas where open flame grilling is prohibited tend to feel left out when grilling season begins. VERY left out. Thankfully, Kenyon thought of us apartment dwellers with nary an outdoor space in site. The City Grill is virtually smokeless and can be used indoors in your kitchen our outside on your balcony (if you’re lucky enough to have one).

It’s officially the “start” of grilling season, but if you have a Kenyon All Seasons electric grill you know that grilling season never really left. When the days are longer and the anticipated warmer temperatures have finally arrived, it’s time to get outside and entertain patio style. Clean up the backyard, dust off the lawn chairs and move the grill outdoors to dine al fresco and rejoice in the sunshine.

To usher in a grillers favorite time of year, we’ve put together a few tips and techniques to help you have your best grilling season yet. Let’s get started!

Prepping and Preparing:

• Marinades, rubs or brining are all great ways to add depth to the food you grill.

• Choose bone-in meat for a more succulent, textured flavor. This also prevents meat from drying out and shrinking during cooking.

• Let your meat reach room temperature an hour prior to grilling. This ensures an even and thorough cooking and allows for proper sear marks to develop versus an overcooked, crusty outer layer. 

• Adding liquid to your Kenyon drip tray is an essential function of our grills. Make sure to add at least a cup of liquid into the drip tray prior to grilling. Water is most commonly used but you could have a little fun and add in a variety of liquids that pair palatably with your meats. This liquid will evaporate during the grilling process and the evaporation will infuse into the food to produce a layer of flavor.

• Try out these suggested combination of meats/liquids or create your own unique signature combo that will wow your guests and have them asking, “what’s your secret?”

Seafood – White Wine, Citrus Soda

Steak – Red Wine

Chicken – Water with a TBSP Lemon Juice

Pork – Apple Juice, Liquid Smoke

Burgers & Sausages– Beer

Cooking Conditions

• When grilling, lay food on the grate in neat rows, moving from left to right. This will help you keep track of which food got placed on the grill first.

• You won’t be able to achieve grill marks or accurately keep track of cooking time if you’re constantly turning over your meat every few seconds. For a more professional look and to achieve grill marks leave your food alone until it’s absolutely necessary to flip.

• Choose between our grate or griddle attachment depending on the type of foods you are preparing. The griddle works best for breakfast foods such as pancakes and eggs, or anything that needs to be cooked on a flat surface.

• No one wants to bite into an under cooked piece of meat or keep chewing on over cooked foods, instead use an internal meat thermometer and eliminate the guesswork out of grilling meats and get perfect results every time. Below are the minimal internal temperature guidelines for meat, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

• Meat continues to cook even after it comes off the grill, so it’s best to remove just before desired doneness is reached and when it’s a few degrees under the listed temperature as it will continue to cook while resting.  Let rest for 5 minutes so the juices have a chance to settle back in.

Poultry: 165°F

Beef: The USDA lists the minimal internal temp for beef at 145°F. However, if you like your steaks cooked medium, go for 140°F; medium rare, go for 135°F.

Pork: 145°F

Fish: 145°F

Cleaning the Grill

No matter what type of grill you have, routine cleaning after each use is the key to maintaining it. Clean grills look better, work better and won’t leave a bad after taste on food. Before your Kenyon Grill cools, take a damp paper towel and tongs and rub the paper towel back and forth to loosen any leftover residue. For a deeper clean, place your grate or griddle directly in the dishwasher.

“During the spring months one of my favorite things to do is to sit back and enjoy an evening outside with friends around a grill. Whether you prefer good ole-fashioned charcoal, Hank Hill-style propane, or enjoy the slow-cooked smokey approach, most grills haven’t changed; however, one traditional grilling brand is starting to change all of this.

The following grilling and cooking gadgets are on Tech.Co’s Spring Gadget Guide as must-haves for a successful BBQ party or simply to enjoy the weekend:

Another contender for city life cooking, the Kenyon electric is an advance grill designed to be smokeless and prevent flare ups. Just like your typical grill, the Kenyon Electric City Grill is able to heat up to 600 degrees, but has a slew of other features they lack. Without using a flame, their heat element is placed within the unit, preventing direct contact with food and preventing smoke. And while the dripping tray may also release smoke, simply by adding water to it will reduce that possibility. It features a nonstick grate and can be used indoors or outdoors. “

We just received out City Grill in time for holiday outdoor cooking. Most importantly we love the quality construction and design of the grill. Additionally the ordering process was smooth and efficient. The Kenyon staff were in touch during each phase of the process to ensure that we were informed and happy. We look forward to many years of grilling on our Kenyon City Grill.

I have been using my grill for a couple of months now. And I really love it. We use it on our patio on Miami Beach. It’s almost smokeless. It gets super hot super fast and is the easiest grill to clean I have ever had. Nothing sticks to it. I also bought the griddle and I use it all the time. I couldn’t be happier with it.

We live on the beach and have corrosion problems with everything that is not plastic. Hopefully this will be the grill that won’t rust. And after about six months it looks like new. I talked to Kenyon before I ordered it. They promised me a lifetime warranty when it came to corrosion. If it would ever corrode they would send me a new one. One is enough. So please don’t corrode.

We didn’t have 240 volts on the patio from the beginning. We called an electrician to rewire it. It took him half a day and a a couple of hundred dollars. Worth every penny.

The Kenyon company has been very professional, from order through delivery. their City Grill is beautifully designed, cooks great, and is easy to clean and maintain. I love this purchase and highly recommend it to anyone.

Received our City Grill a few weks back and have used it serveral times: steak, salmon and veggies. It works extremely well and the high temperatures are better than I would have expected. Small, effecient, just lovely!

Kenyon is a great company and the products work fantastic. I have a Kenyon grill on my Sea ray and it is one of the best parts on my boat.
