EZ Grill Review

EZ Grill, easy review.  So even though America is wholly embracing this green revolution for the most part, throwing stuff away is still a huge part of our culture.  To add to this national pastime comes the EZ Grill, a portable and disposable solution for those looking to grill on the go.

The whole set-up of the grill is painfully simple in the “why didn’t I think out that” way.  In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if the idea didn’t originate from some serial griller’s DIY project.

The EZ Grill has four parts.  It takes an aluminum foil pan with primed charcoal dipped in mineral oil with an ignition cloth inside, and covers it with a metal grate.  That’s it.  EZ really can’t be spelled in any other way in this case.

I brought the EZ Grill on a rafting trip down the Clackamas River in Oregon, outside of Portland.  We used it to cook shrimp and chicken kabobs and they tasted great.  The only thing I can say is that like any other grill you have to give the charcoals enough time to get appropriately hot before you try a cook food over them.

The grill itself is designed to last up to an hour and a half of total charcoal burn time.  We used ours for about an hour.  What would make this grill better would be if it was somehow totally biodegradable.  I know that the makers of EZ grill have gone to great lengths to eco-friendly as possible but some effort still must be had to dispose of the EZ Grill properly.  We did manage to find a trash can alongside the river but not everyone will be as responsible as we were.

At a really low price I can recommend this grill for anyone who doesn’t own a small gas or charcoal grill.  This would work well for small one night camping trips or other type scenarios such as tailgaiting.

EZ Grill is now available at your local retailer and you can also purchase them in bulk at EZ Grill’s Website.

Pros:

  • It’s an easy grill
  • Long burn time
  • Eco-Friendly
  • Cheap

Cons:

  • Not Biodegradable

    “EZGRILL”… This little thing is absolutely amazing…!!  I just tried it for the 1st time tonight.  The paperwork says takes 15 minutes to fire up and lasts for 90 minutes, total.  What happened with me was, it actually took 30 minutes to be ready to cook… but then… it lasted for over 3 dang hours!!!!  I ended up dragging out all the meats I'd been thinking of cooking and then freezing.  

    I was able to charcoal-broil the following:  one HUGE beef steak, 2 lamb steaks (also nice-sized), and 10 big pieces of chicken.  FYI, this did take 3 separate loads, onto the grill.As I sit here right now… it's still really hot and I could honestly cook even more meat.. if I had any more to cook.Also don't be scared, I was worried might burn my patio furniture (I live in Florida).  So I did this elaborate rig with the grill sitting on a cookie pan… on 4 ceramic tiles… on 2 oven mitts… on a wooden plank….hahaha!  But no worries, the cookie pan beneath it, never even felt WARM…!!  :)So very cool.  I will for sure buy this item, many times again.Karen Valrico, Florida)
