Electric Grill Buying Guide

Giving you the best in versatility and practicality with electric grills

Portable electric grills are becoming more and more popular with amateur and professional chefs. Versatile and practical, these grills can be used indoors as well as outdoors. With a wide variety of brands and models available, you'll easily find an outdoor or indoor electric grill to match your needs.

Outdoor electric grills are affordable, convenient

When charcoal, wood, or gas grills aren't an option, turn to an outdoor electric grill. These affordable electric grills are convenient to use for all outdoor cooking, and they save you the expense of purchasing or refilling propane gas tanks.

Cooks relish the fact that most outdoor electric grills are small and portable. They can be moved close enough to an electrical outlet, eliminating the need for an extension cord. The grills warm up quickly and provide even heat distribution.

An indoor electric grill is a fine addition to any kitchen. The grills can be used to prepare breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Indoor electric grills cook meat on both sides at the same time, so you don't need to turn food over like you do with a gas or charcoal grill.

For healthy-minded chefs, electric grilling can help reduce fat content in foods by venting fat away. Open electric grills use a drip pan underneath the grill surface for fat collection. That makes hamburgers and steaks taste even better.

Features to look for in an electric grill

Before purchasing an electric grill, consider the features that are best for your family. If you have many mouths to feed, a larger grill will give you more cooking space. A portable electric grill can be stored out of sight as can a tabletop electric grill.

Some Brinkmann electric grills feature adjustable thermostats that have temperature ranges from 200 to 450 degrees. An electric grill designed with interchangeable plates gives you the ability to prepare waffles, vegetables, and hot sandwiches.

Removable heating plates are a plus for an electric grill, making cleanup easier than a frying pan. Nonstick cooking surfaces and plastic drip pans also can be cleaned with minimal effort. Most are dishwasher safe.

An electric grill with a floating hinge accommodates thicker cuts of meat and hefty sandwiches. If you don't want to use a toaster or oven while cooking hamburgers or hot dogs, you can select a bun-warming feature for your electric grill.
