When Outside Isn't an Option - Indoor Grilling

When the weather is gorgeous outside, having family & friends over for a delicious barbecue party sounds great, right? Most people prefer grilling outside during the nice weather. But, what if outside isn't an option due to bad weather or whatever the reason is?

This is where indoor grilling comes into play. Indoor Grilling is becoming more popular every year in the United States. Because indoor grilling is easy, affordable, and you can grill all year around without worrying about the weather.

Most prefer electric grills because they are easy to setup and clean. Most electric grills are dishwasher safe. You can simply remove the plates, and wash them in a dishwasher after a delicious home cooked grill. In general indoor grills can be categorized as contact grills & open grills.

Contact or Open Grill

Contact grills are two-sided, therefore cooking faster than open grills, and you don't need to flip the food. Contact grills can also cook paninis, appetizers, and whatever else you can think of.

Open grills don't have the top plate, some of them come with a lid, and some of them don't. Similar to outdoor barbecue grills, they require you to flip the food to evenly cook both sides. If you get an open one, we'd recommend getting one with a lid on. This way, the lid will keep the steam within the grill and make the food cook evenly. You can even cook a whole chicken with an open grill which has a lid.

How to Start Grilling Indoors

• Purchase an indoor grill of your like. We'd highly recommend an electric contact grill.
• Use your favorite barbecue recipe.
• And simply put the prepared food on the indoor grill, adjust the heat level and start grilling.

It is as simple as this. No need to worry about lighting the charcoal, or changing the gas tank like you do outside. If you haven't tried indoor grilling, it's your chance now. Enjoy delicious meals with your indoor grill.
