Dear Cook With Kenyon,
I used the grill last night…..fantastic.  Kenyon has done a fantastic job in construction and design.  The steak was every bit as good, if not better, than if cooked on a traditional grill.
All the best,
Paul

We often get asked: why should I add water to the drip tray of my Kenyon grill? Well we know from our last post what typically causes smoke and flare-ups with electric grills, and since we have eliminated the possibility for smoke or flare-ups that way, we should be all set, right? Almost, we recommend adding liquid to the drip tray for two reasons, the first being if you do not add liquid and then heat up your grill, the hot drippings from the food can cause smoke when the drippings hit the hot (dry) tray below- so by adding liquid it acts as a buffer and you will not have any smoke!
Secondly, and most important, is that the liquid keeps your food juicy while cooking. 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 and thus it will infuse into your food to add a kiss of flavor of whatever liquid you are using. Check out this video for some tips on which beverages go best with which foods!
The Secret to Efficient Electric Grills.
How are Kenyon Electric Grills smokeless and flare-up free? We’re glad you asked! First, we need to explain why smoke and flare-ups are caused on electric grills. In many cases, smoke is caused when the drippings from the food that is being cooked come in contact with the heating element. This can also cause flare-ups if the element is hot enough and the drippings are grease. Why would the drippings come in contact with the element? Many grills place the heating element up to 2 inches away from the actual grilling surface and are left exposed underneath. Our patented design places the heating element in a concealed channel on the bottom of the grilling surface.
With the element concealed in this channel, the drippings fall harmlessly into the removable drip tray underneath. For tips on getting the most out of your drip tray, click here. This placement not only removes the chance of drippings hitting the element and causing smoke or flare-ups, but it also provides for zero heat loss between the element and the grilling surface and therefore allows for more efficient grilling. By being in a channel underneath the grill “grate” as we call it, the grate receives completely even heat which can be entirely covered with food while still being cooked evenly. See image 3 below. This also has allowed us to manufacture the only grills available that are UL listed for indoor and outdoor use, so you can grill anywhere, anytime! Not only does our element placement differ from our competition, it serves as an advantage to achieving the best results, every time. To find the grill that suits you best, start here.

Well not all of us are able to grill because of where we live, building restrictions and such. Well today that all changes with an impressive and unique design known as the City Grill. The City grill was designed to exceed the requirements of city living where open flame grilling is prohibited. The City Grill is the perfect solution for apartments, condominiums and dorms.
This unique device and design rocks 8 different heat settings for perfect and flawless control. Distributing even temperature over the entire cooking surface ensures that all of your food is cooked correctly, without damaging any food. The grill is constructed from the highest quality, marine-grade stainless  steel.

Are you looking for a solution to fill the grilling void now that summer is leaving us behind? Â Well take a look at this great review of our City Grill:
KENYON CITY GRILL KNOWS NO SEASONS, LETS YOU GRILL ANYTIME OF THE YEAR
We are quite fortunate over here. We can grill or BBQ virtually anytime of the year without worrying about seasons. however, for those who have to put up with seasons, things are, well, at the mercy of the seasons. sure, if you have a huge ass house, you probably have a mega size covered area where you could get a fire going for grilling, but obviously, most of us don’t have such luxury and this where the City Grill by Kenyon comes in. with it, you get to enjoy the joy of grilling and savor grilled food, all in the comfort and warm of you home and at anytime of the year. it is a portable electric grill that offers 155 square inches of grilling real estate and pre-heats in under seven minutes, which means you could even have grilled food for dinner if you want to.
Kenyon City Grill promised up to to 600F of heat across the entire grilling surface, emits almost nos moke (a healthier choice, no doubt and no risk of triggering your smoke detector) and no risk of flare ups, and is made of weather resistant, rust-proof marine-grade stainless steel, making it the ideal grill for both indoor and outdoor, and you know what that means, don’t you? it means grilled food whenever you want without being bound to the seasons. during summer, you can get the party going at your backyard and when spring/winter arrives, you can keep the party going indoor. the best part is, it can just sit on your kitchen countertop or any table of your choosing, or built into the countertop. the choice is yours. but we would think the former will be a better option as it allows the flexibility of outdoor and indoor uses. after all, that’s the whole idea of acquiring this, isn’t it so? however, you have to be quite a serious grilled food fan to be investing in one as it does come with a rather hefty price.
Living in an apartment that doesn’t allow smoky grills shouldn’t mean you can’t enjoy great grilled foods — and neither should the impending cold weather. With the Kenyon City Grill you can grill no matter your situation, whether it’s snowing outdoors, or you just live in a place without a porch or yard. Built from marine grade stainless steel, these grills will last a lifetime, fending off weather and rust. And because they run purely on electricity, you don’t have to worry about them smoking up your place. So go ahead, grill fish, burgers, steaks, and more, all from the comfort of the great indoors.
