Myths
Having said that, it is time to dispel some myths about indoor grills and indoor grilling. First of all, unless you are using a gas-powered (and ventilated) indoor grill, you won't really get close to the taste of outdoor grilling in indoor appliances. It will never be exactly the same.
Secondly, indoor grilling may not produce safer and healthier food. The outdoor grill can. Carcinogens can be produced if you are not careful, and so can indoor grills. The burning of any fat will lead to the formation of these substances, so be careful no matter how you bake.
The last myth that needs to be settled once and for all is that these indoor grills can significantly reduce the fat content of food. Some barbecue grills are printed with the words "lean meat, reduced fat", but when Consumer Reports investigated this situation, they found that there was "no significant" difference between a frying pan and using a grill. If you think that the frying pan is one of the most unhealthy ways of cooking, then you really need to accept these claims because they are a great way to sell appliances.
Types of Indoor Grills
Climbing down from the soap box, let's take a quick look at the types of indoor grills on the market. There are basically two types: open grille and folding contact grille. The cooking style of an open grill is similar to that of an outdoor grill. These appliances have a heating element and a cooking surface similar to a grill. Although you have to flip the food to cook evenly, the grilling experience is more authentic and the taste is closer to reality. A good example of this type of grill is the Cookeryaki CORE PRO COOKING CP-CB24/36/48-M Indoor Electric Grill.
On the other hand, the Cookeryaki Rise-Fall Style Electric Double Griddle is basically a Panini press, which is the origin of all folding contact grills like the popular Forman grills. These have been popular in Europe for decades and are great for making sandwiches. Of course, they really use the word barbecue to describe grilled cheese sandwiches. Not something you make on a full-size gas grill, but these appliances are omnipotent. The advantage of the contact grill is that it cooks on both sides at the same time and does not require much attention from the chef.
Grill Pans
Relatively cheap and easy to obtain, grill pans are a great choice for indoor grilling. The trick is to find one that has a lot of quality so that it can burn better, and has a high ridge (many bakeware is lightweight, the ridge can not collect the fat from the food), such as Cookeryaki 3 BURNER GAS GRIDDLE-THERMOSTAT CONTROL. It is heavy, has high and wide ridges, and will last for many years if properly cared for.
How to Grill Indoors?
Now that we have straightened out the equipment, let's look at the actual barbecue. Just like outdoor barbecues, indoor grilling require the attention of the chef. Don't leave the grill. Remember, you are indoors now; all smoke from fire or food burning will not be blown away by the wind. In order to reduce fat and reduce the smoke produced by indoor grill, reduce excess fat in meat. The less fat, the less you burn, the less smoke, and of course, the less fat in food. Some open grills allow fat to drip onto the heating element. This may cause a fire, although the risk is small. Put a fire extinguisher in the kitchen. It is also a good idea to use indoor grills near kitchen vents or windows.
So what can you grill on the indoor grill? Anything you do outside. Indoor grills are not as capable of draining liquid as outdoor rotisseries, and you don’t want the marinade to run on your counter, so when grilling bacon, let them drain the water on the cooling rack first. When you can barbecue on the indoor grill, you need to save. Gently brush the oil on the food, being careful not to spill it. Besides, you can really make anything that suits your grill.
Before we start, you cannot use an outdoor grill indoors, even in the garage. Charcoal and gas grills produce large amounts of carbon monoxide, and even a small amount of carbon monoxide can kill you. It seems obvious, but every year more than a dozen people are killed on the outdoor grill inside the house. Indoor grill must be carried out on a grill or grill specially designed for indoor grilling.
