New Grill!
I picked up a new grill at the 2010 HPBA in Orlando. It’s an Australian built BeefEater Discovery Series. Five (5) Burners with Cast Iron Grates. The nice feature about the grates is that one side is a griddle for cooking vegetables and searing meat. At 75,000 BTU, it doesn’t take long to get the cast iron grates up to temp. The high [...] (read full article)

USA Today: Grill gadgetry, right on ‘cue
Culinary instructor Karen Adler recommends Grate Chef® Grill Wipes for both preparing and cleaning your grill. The wipes come six per pack, are saturated with foodservice-grade vegetable oil to coat the grill and can be stuck to a grill brush to scrub the grate when cooking is done. Plus, using them regularly helps prevent rust and charred food buildup. “Because it’s a high-temperature oil, it doesn’t have that horrible smokiness that you get when trying to sear over a hot fire,” Adler says.

Grilling Facts and Figures
Grilling Facts and Figures Who barbecues? Practically everyone! A 2007 study conducted by the Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association (HPBA) shows that 77 percent of all U.S. households own a grill or smoker and 89 percent in households with four or more members. And, 95 percent of grill owners actually used their grill in the past year. More than 17.4 million new grills were shipped in 2007 alone. When do we barbecue? A majority of grill owners use their grills year-round; with 45 percent grilling at least 1-2 times per week during peak summer months. The most popular grilling occasions are Fourth of July, Memorial Day and Labor Day, but an increasing number of grillers report using their grills during the winter, too! (read full article)
GRATE FRIENDS
“Thank you for the replacement brush I received so promptly. The steaming action on this brush works very well and I would not hesitate to recommend this product to my friends.
I am also using the grill wipes I purchased and now wish I had both of your products when my grill was new. With the amount of carbon built up on my grates even after I use the steaming brush the oil pads become extremely black and messy, I think they apply the oil satisfactorily and make cooking easier. Does this product come in larger packages? Living in Florida we grill out several times a week year round and will go through the 6 pack grill wipes in a week or two.
Best wishes for your continued success with your company.”
