noreply@blogger.com (BestShopping) — Sun, 20 Mar 2011 02:58:00 +0000

When I shopped for grills, one thing I noticed was poor grease catching design, even in the $5,000 grills (sorry, I don't WANT to use kitty litter in my high-end grill). Weber got it right, I just wish the Weber dealers would know that these pans exist, Amazon is the only place where I could find them. BTW, it may not say so, but this pan fits all the current Summit grills, both 4 and 6 burner models.Get more detail about Weber 6417 All-Purpose Summit Drip Pan, 10-Pack.

Multi-Purpose Lighter Decide Now

noreply@blogger.com (BestShopping) — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 09:24:00 +0000

==> From an engineering perspective I believe they break so quickly, because there is a plastic part inside the tip of the lighter, which melts (right where the flame exits). If you light something holding the lighter upside down (for example: lighting a bunch of tea-lights sitting in deep glasses), then this plastic gets hot and melts. If you do it long enough the plastic in the tip starts sizzling, melts, and eventually even catches on fire, so be careful. Smells pretty bad, too. I believe the function of this little plastic part is to hold in place the gas exit nozzle and the spark jump wire. Once it melts, the spark does not jump any more, or the gas flow is obstructed, and the lighter does not work any more. In my opinion, this plastic part in the tip should not be plastic, but ceramic to withstand the temperature, and the insulation of the spark jump wire should be made from Teflon for the same reason. All the plastic close to the flame can actually be a fire hazard & health hazard. But I guess they use plastic because it's much cheaper to manufacture them that way.

Long story short:
==> Use flame pointing up, or lighter will die quickly.
==> Besides the issue above, not a bad lighter.
==> I read all the reviews and warnings, but still purchased 2 of them, returned 1 so far.
==> Lighters came empty, had to fuel them up, which worked well.
==> Push-button I find not as hard to push as everybody says, but hard enough to be child-prove.
==> Once fueled, lighters worked well (as long as you don't melt the plastic inside the tip; see above).
==> Flame adjustment wheel works well.
==> Nice shape, looks good

=========================================================
OK, received the replacement quickly, good service. But they shipped it in a soft envelope, so I think it took some beating during shipping and broke through the middle, where the black plastic part joins the metal casing. So I epoxy'ed it back together, works fine now. So bear in mind that this is not really that strong of a product with a few reliability flaws. Otherwise works fine. Not a bad lighter.

This grill surface thermometer does its job just like it is supposed too. I have owned it for about 2 years and it has seen many uses on the gas and charcoal grills. It has a color coded face so you can easily see if you have the heat high enough to sear or if you are staying withing the idea grilling zone. It also has notches on the face which allow you to insert a spatula to remove it. All in all....I am impressed with the accuracy and durability of this product.Get more detail about MR.

Discount Weber 4411001 Spirit E-210 Propane Grill, Black

noreply@blogger.com (BestShopping) — Fri, 24 Dec 2010 18:27:00 +0000

The 210 is an excellent gas grill, far superior to the big box Char-Broils, Forge or other cheap, flimsy, cheap, poor heat, cheap... units.

One item; it is absolutely true that units sold at Home Depot have cast iron grates, not the bent sheetmetal grates sold with 210's everywhere else. The box storing the grates is marked "Genesis", not "Spirit". This makes a significant difference (IMHO) and is worth a trip to Home Depot. Check the units at the stores to be sure.

Enjoy,

Buying Weiman 02 Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish - 12 oz

noreply@blogger.com (BestShopping) — Thu, 11 Nov 2010 02:34:00 +0000

Five years ago I put all stainless appliances in our kitchen. For the last 5 years I have tried one product after another to clean and polish the stainless. None--not one--NOTTA---worked--not even the expensive ones provided by the appliance manufacturer. Hours and hours of cleaning and rubbing and always have streaks and smudges.
I purchased one 12 ounce spray can of Weiman thinking I probably was hoping against hope. Was I amazed. In less than 20 minutes I cleaned and polished a huge 2 door refrigerator, a dishwasher, a microwave oven, a double wall oven, a small undercounter refrigerator, a toaster oven and a coffee pot with almost no effort. Two days later they are still clean, shiny and streak free. I do not know what is in this stuff BUT IT WORKS and is worth its weight in gold. 1 million KUDOS to WEIMAN,Get more detail about Weiman 02 Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish - 12 oz.

Buy Lodge Logic Pre-Seasoned Sportsman's Charcoal Grill

noreply@blogger.com (BestShopping) — Sat, 21 Aug 2010 21:03:00 +0000

After reading all the glowing reviews, I decided to spend the big bucks on what appeared to be the most wonderful little grill. Since I live in Nevada and the shipping origin was Arizona, I expected it to arrive within 4 days tops. I am sad to report that my first grill arrived 5 days later than their projected date (it took 10 days) and upon opening the box, I immediately saw a crack completely through the fire bowl in the lower right bottom (as you look at it)just as Bob P. in July, 2009, reported. Dismayed, I contacted Amazon, explained why FedEx does not work as a shipper where I live (middle of Nevada desert), requested UPS or USPS instead, and was emailed a shipping label to return the grill. Amazon stated they would ship out a replacement grill immediately.

I was delighted to have grill #2 arrive sooner than expected (3 days) and have it delivered by UPS. Delight turned to dismay again as I saw yet another crack in exactly the same place as the previous grill. Again, I contacted Amazon and sent them a photo showing exactly where and what the crack looked like. I was emailed a label, and made the 90 mile trek to the post office to get the grill back in the mail. I had indicated to Amazon that I was up for giving it one more try; if the third grill arrived damaged, I would be ready for a refund.

Shortly after I sent that email, Amazon contacted me and stated that since I had received two damaged grills, they would refund my cost since it was likely another grill would arrive damaged. Perhaps they opened a few boxes and examined the grills? Maybe the shipment they received from Lodge was all defective? I don't know.

What I can tell you is that I decided to take another leap and order the exact same grill from Ace Hardware. It arrived on exactly the day they projected, cost $20.00 less, and arrived from New York completely intact. So, if anyone orders this grill from Amazon (shipped from Goodyear, AZ), be sure to check it out carefully when it arrives.

Purchase Steven Raichlen Best of Barbecue SR8008 Sauce Mop with Removable Head

noreply@blogger.com (BestShopping) — Mon, 02 Aug 2010 22:17:00 +0000

Works very well! I am very pleased! I had a silicone mop before and it did not hold liquid like this one does. The tip comes off for convenient cleaning. You may be able to find a similar mop of lesser price. I did not want to drive around town looking for one. After you add in the gas you used for driving around town, the price of the cheaper mop would probably equal this one. I say this because the "Raichlen" name on this mop probably raises the price.

Order Ducane 300111 Heavy-Duty Vinyl Cover

We bought this grill cover after purchasing a used 1600 series model Ducane grill that didn't come with one. For anyone else struggling out there--they don't make covers for that series anymore (and don't list specs so you can find which one to use as an alternative!) After several trial and errors, we found this one fits perfectly. The material is very durable but soft and fluid, easy to put on and take off. Highly recommended.

Weber 3741001 Genesis E-310 Propane Gas Grill, Black Immediately

noreply@blogger.com (BestShopping) — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 22:31:00 +0000

All of the Weber Genesis grills are engineering marvels.

Often people will say cheaper brands will have better materials or features. But in the end, the Weber Genesis will have even heat everywhere on the grate. It will heat up to over 600F and will maintain much of that heat when opened. All of the parts are made from quality materials and the design is perfected. If people say a cheaper grill is better, they probably are not willing to pay the premium for quality. The Weber will cook your food properly and will last many years.

Here is some info on the different Weber Genesis models

E - no stainless steel
EP - stainless steel grates and flavorizor bars
S - Stainless Steel top, sides, grates and flavorizor bars
310 - no side burner
320 - side burnerGet more detail about Weber 3741001 Genesis E-310 Propane Gas Grill, Black.

Outset F717 Assorted Wood Planks for Grilling, Set of 6 Best Quality

noreply@blogger.com (BestShopping) — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 14:31:00 +0000

It's probably that I just need to pay better attention, but there are only 6 planks (all the same size) in the pack. I duped myself by believing the picture.

Other than that, I really liked these planks. It's hard to find anything but cedar where I live, so the different flavors were very nice. (And if you've never cooked with wood planks before, don't believe you can only cook salmon on them. They add a great flavor to whatever you're grilling. Visit a local bookstore and look through a plank cooking cookbook for different ideas.)

I was really happy with the flavor of these six (6) planks.Get more detail about Outset F717 Assorted Wood Planks for Grilling, Set of 6.

Minden Grills 94922-89460-1 Deluxe Ceramic Pizza Stone Get it now!

noreply@blogger.com (BestShopping) — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 06:31:00 +0000

This product works great as advertised, turning my outdoor grill into a wood fired pizza oven - sort of. I've always wanted an outdoor pizza oven, and recently learned that you can make pizza on the grill. With a little internet research, I soon had some great dough recipes to try out. I started by using a round pizza stone I already had. Pizzas turned out OK but tended to get a little blacker on the bottom in order to have the top well cooked. So I searched for a stone that would fit better, and found this on Amazon. This model is a litle cheaper than others I considered because it doesn't have a built in thermometer - I figured I could use the one on my grill. The rectangular stone raised off the grill worked great, and the bottoms didn't burn (don't forget to put wood chips in your grill for even better flavor - not on the stone, though). The raised edge on this product keeps the pizza from sliding off when you try to lift with a peel, and the removable stone is easy to clean. I had a party for twenty people and made a bunch of pizzas, and they raved about them. For the price, this stone does the job. My only knock would be if it was an inch shorter in width, I could get 2 in my grill at once and do 2 pizzas at a time. Get more detail about Minden Grills 94922-89460-1 Deluxe Ceramic Pizza Stone.
