| charles's Full Review: Char-Broil CharBroil Big Easy 8000 All-in-One Gril... |
Who can resist the great outdoors these days with the beautiful weather of California this time of the year? If I can't talk for many of you, at least, I can talk for my family and those who are close to me. Besides going to our beautiful parks, river beds and the beach, we usually assemble on our porches and decks to enjoy either breakfast, lunch or dinner while watching the sunrise or sunset. May brings us so many occasions for all of us to be together, whether it's for Mother's Day, graduation ceremonies and Memorial Day.
With the blessing of long, sunny days, this week-end will see many of us hitting the road to our favorite camping grounds and coastal beach areas. So it makes sense that most of us will be eating out. For the past few days, I have been very busy shopping and cooking for a member of our extended family who was going to graduate from California State University-Fresno with a degree in Accountancy and Business Administration. It was time to prepare the foods, season the steak. It was barbecue time for what ended up being a large group of people. Obviously, I received assistance from the family members. But I was in charge of the food category. We put the family's newly purchased Charbroil 8000 Big Easy Gas Grill to good use. More than anything, on occasions such as these, one realizes the true importance of being family members. Since it's Memorial Day holiday, it's also time to think about those who passed away. But most of them will be with the rest of us in spirit.
Big Easy Gas Grill Is The Product of the world's leader in barbecue grills, CharBroil
There is no doubt that this company calls itself the keeper of the flames. It's quick to innovate and bring new products to the market. This year, it brings us CharBroil 8000 Big Easy Gas Grill in time for the holiday season. What's great about this new grill is its multi-functionality. It's easy to use it to prepare your breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Impressive Features of the Big Easy for you, guys!
Let's take a tour of the gas grill first
On the right front, you will find the fuel gage that tells you when the tank needs filling. There is no going at it by faith. No more blind spot! If you are cooking, you want to make sure you have enough gas to complete your cooking. Then, you will find the flush-mounted side burner which can serve as extra cook top or shelfspace. Now, this is very important in that it will come handy as you cook outside. Everything you need will close to your hands. Remember that this side burner is also found on the left side. Right below the side burner, you can see the tank which can be tilted to accommodate you better.
This gas grill is very stable thanks to its large, wide wheel base. The large wheel ensures a stable cart. Right in the front, you will see the condiments basket and towards the left side under the side burner, you will see the bonus side shelf which can double as storage. The moniker of Big Easy may stem from the fact that this gas grill is truly easy to use. Just take a look at the large grip knobs that you can use to get a clean start. That's the ignition knob. Then, another large knob controls the separate burners.
What can you cook with this grill?
How do you keep it clean
There is no doubt that you made a good choice buying this gas grill. In general, gas grills are very convenient, stay cleaner and are easy to control. They cause you less headache with mess and ashes to clean up or empty. The only thing is that if you don't have a natural gas installation, you will need to refill your LP tank.
You can use the porcelain cast iron griddle to prepare your eggs and pancakes or a grilled cheese sandwich. The porcelain cast iron deep dish can be used to prepare your stir fries and deep fry. The benefits you will reap from using the grill outside are that your house is going to remain fresh and clean. When it comes to using the rotisserie burner, you don't have to worry about a thing. It's placed above the main grid, allowing the grease to drain away for healthy cooking and avoid flares up.
Obviously over time and many uses, your cast iron grates will turn black. To clean them up, all you need to use is boiling water. It will get the job done.
What's the warranty package like?
Among all the good reasons to buy this gas grill is the warranty package:
Lifetime warranty on the casting
5 years on the burner
10 years on electronic ignition
1 year on all other parts.
Hey, you can always buy a new insurance or negotiate your way to a better one.
Combat hunger with the leader and keeper of the flames!
