Indoor Grill

Ladeback69

Got this in an email from the Food Network.  Wonder if this would be worth getting when it is too hot, cold or raining out and you don't want to go outside.  My stepfather had an electric grill when we were kids and would cook on it when it was cold outside and the patio was snowed in.  The steaks off of it was pretty good, but that is before I know about BGE.

You could also just get some binchotan charcoal and egg right in your living room. That would be considerably more expensive.

We had an electric griddle/grill, it had two sets of "plates", one being a griddle and the other being a grid. The grid left the element exposed in some places and it would smoke like bejesus if tou cooked anything with high fat. Gave it to my apartment dwelling son and he used the griddle all the time and the grid for chicken breasts. He still has it. Think it was a GE or B&D and it did work quite well if you set it on the range top and used the exhaust fan.

Or you could use a grill pan... Not an advocate just saying

All you need to know about indoor grilling is how to take the 9v batteries out of your smoke detectors.

Mine are hard wired with battery backup, but I know what you mean.

Yeah, ours are too

The last few times we have used the oven we have smoked the house up, but didn't set the detectors off.  I don't like using the oven much anymore.

This seems to have fairly mediocre reviews. The one that kills it for me is they say the heating element cycles on and off so it makes it difficult to cook a steak.  I think a CI grill pan might be a better option.  Just my $.02. 

I know it is "George Foreman-esque" but I think I would be more inclined to get something like the this:  http://amzn.com/B002YD99Y4.  You could use it to grill George Foreman style but also works well for sammiches.  

Either that or just a CI grill pan like @MrCookingNurse suggested.  I haven't tried one except on my egg.  I see people use them on cooking shows often and they seem to do a good job, but they probably have much better stove tops than me.

I took a Spanish cooking class and we cooked filet skewers on one of these: http://www.amazon.com/Lotus-Grill-Smokeless-Charcoal-Barbecue/dp/B00KGCA8SG

it uses lump charcoal and doesn't smoke much at all.  I would recommend this for inside grilling.

I have this at home and used it a lot when I first got it and it was ok.

But this may be better.

Just flip the breaker and egg on!

fishlessman

just go old school and dig out the foreman grill

could also lay the toaster on its side and slip in a steak, make sure to put a plate infront of the slots to catch it

I had a similar Delonghi when I lived in an apartment during grad school and right after.  It worked perfectly fine for steaks/chops/etc, and I never wanted to clean the stove after searing in CI and having some fat splatter.

This thing is a beast, 27.2lbs.  lol
Found the 5-in-1 smoker on clearance for cheap at TJ Maxx.  Have yet to smoke inhouse.  But on the egg, or in the oven, works good.  

The lid is a raised CI griddle pan.  Base a CI roaster.

This looks promising.
