De'Longhi Healthy Indoor Grill with Die-Cast Aluminum Non-Stick Cooking Surface

Winter in Boston the guys want to grill but who wants to go out 32 degrees? The DeLonghi grill is a perfect fix. The surface big enough to hold 3 medium steaks and possibly roast sausage or two Once you season with a little oil it heats quickly and cooks evenly. I was surprised at the real grill marks and yummy crunchiness of my lamb. The lower temperatures are great for keeping things warm or slower cooking. It did get a little smokey so make sure you have a window open. Clean up was easy and quick Each piece fits into one another making storage easy also I think I'll be grilling all winter!!

The DeLonghi BG-24 Perfecto Indoor Grill has quickly become my favourite small kitchen appliance! Let me begin by saying that this grill is very solid and well-constructed. The design and style are of the utmost quality and the size is generous to hold plenty of food. The first day, I marinated some boneless, skinless chicken breast strips in seasoning sauce and wrapped bacon around the outside of some of the pieces. Per the instructions in the manual, I started cooking on the max sear setting, number 5, then reduced it to 4 for the suggested cooking time. All the chicken was so juicy and tender, it was perfect, not to mention beautiful (it could have been featured in a cookbook, but I forgot to take a photo). Next, I prepared some boneless pork chops, cut about ½” thick, and prepared them in the same marinade. I grilled them pretty-much exactly the way I cooked the chicken and the same result…perfection! My son and husband LOVED both dishes and my son took the leftovers to work the next day to share. After I washed the grill to prepare it for the first use, I lightly sprayed the rack with olive oil cooking spray, then wiped the excess off with a paper towel. Clean-up was much easier than I expected. After the grill cooled-off, I washed it straight-away. I suggest doing the same to avoid the food/sauce hardening on the rack. Be sure to read the instruction manual completely and use water in the bottom tray, as instructed. You must replenish the water in the tray as cooking progresses, however, do not overfill the bottom tray, as a good bit of water will drip from the meat. Just keep an eye on the tray and replenish the water a little at a time. The only negative comment I can make it that the smell of food does linger in the house longer than I like, but that is no reflection on the grill or its performance. I love this product…you will, too. I highly recommend.
