With the Grill-X you can prepare a classic barbecue “with smoke” in any kitchen. According to the manufacturer Kiwamiyatei, the new grill gives food that special woody flavour that is characteristic of food cooked over real coals. The grill is not self-contained, but can be used in any oven or hob.
Structurally, the Grill-X consists of three components: an aluminium base, a steel lid and the cooker itself, on which the food is cooked. The secret of the grill lies in the plate’s coating of graphite, which, like charcoal, is made of carbon. It is the burning of the charcoal that gives the food its woody flavour – the same flavour that the heated coating gives to the meat.
The Grill-X has gaps for air circulation, which is drawn in and heated in a confined space – the operation of the grill resembles the processes inside a convection oven. This allows you to cook more succulent meat dishes in less time. For better heat circulation, the surface of the hob is grooved.
