USA Made Grilling Product offers healthy alternative


The PAN Grill-it nestled inside of a 12"skillet




It's no secret these days that healthy eating has become a huge part of mainstream American life. Recent studies proven in a recent CNBC article show that "nearly two-thirds of all adult Americans are overweight and that child obesity is triple what is was a generation ago." Those numbers are absolutely staggering, and it's completely understandable as to why the dieting industry is a multi-billion dollar industry. With the health craze that is sweeping the nation and many people looking for anyway to get healthier, drop a few pounds or whatever else it is you're looking to do, you may wonder where a cast iron cookware fits in and how it can help you achieve those goals.

All of us are familiar with the cookware we use, and the explosion of non-stick cookware and other like-minded products. They are really convenient, cheap and the best part is that your food won't stick to your cookware when you're fixing up dinner. However, most people are unaware of the damages that come from cooking on such a material. The dangers are so much that the United States government is mandating all companies that produce non-stick cookware and these products to change the chemicals they're using by 2015. When heated up right on your own stove, non-stick pans release at least six toxic gases, including two carcinogens, two global pollutants, and MFA, a chemical lethal to humans at low doses. Not exactly happy with that convenience now, are you?

Enter cast iron. Iron is an essential part to staying healthy. Iron deficiency is the most common nutritional deficiency in the United States, according to our own CDC. Iron is what carries oxygen from our lungs through our blood streams, it helps promote healthy digestion and it affects several of our organ functions. So it's obvious that iron is an absolute must in our dietary needs. But how do we acquire it with ease?

It's proven that cooking on cast iron can help your food absorb iron that gets into your bloodstream and can help with iron deficiency. It especially helps when you're cooking acidic foods, so say you're feeling a little fatigued and want to try to pick up your pace, why not just have yourself a little lunch and when you're cooking up a chicken breast to help stay lean, grill up some red or green peppers to go with it to give your body that little iron boost it needs and is also a great way to drop some pounds.

Some of the great benefits to making your life healthier with the PAN Grill-it and other supporting cast iron pieces, are using no oils, butter or those unhealthy sprays which contain GMOs, Isobutane, butane and more. Not to mention those sprays are bad for the environment. A well seasoned or pre-seasoned cast iron skillet or griddle is virtually non stick and will give you all the healthy benefits of not adding chemicals or extra fat to your foods. You won't find the coating on your non stick pans breaking off and cooking into your food and having your lean steak come with more than you bargained for. The benefits are all there. It's chemical free, it will immensely help your blood stream and overall health, and you won't be releasing all of those toxins and gasses into your home.

The PAN Grill-it, round griddle and skillets are safe for all stove tops. Also great on existing rusted grills at home, the park or campsite. Tin-foil no more.

PAN Grill-it: A nibble bit more info about his friends

If you have a 12” skillet already, your half way home. All you need is the PAN Grill-it. If not, I suggest the Lodge 10.5” round cast iron griddle. Its inner dimensions are perfect fit for the PAN Grill-it. It is 1/3 the weight of the skillets making it easier to move around. Plus, they are more universal for taking camping, to parks or elsewhere. They also work great right on outdoor grills or over the campfire.

The griddles by themselves, they are great for many uses like pancakes, fajitas stir-fry, baking pizzas. But together they do many things. For example, grill chicken, peppers and onions, use the tongs to pull out the PAN Grill-it then make BBQ Chicken pizzas. Often you'll find at stores pizza kits that are sold and packaged in two.


So what about the Lodge grill press? Do you need it with the other pieces?

The Lodge cool grip spiral handle is optional, but has many uses and benefits for grilling with the PAN Grill-it™
-Grill thicker cuts of beef, chicken burgers from both sides faster.
-Melt cheese in sandwiches, wraps or paninis.
-Flattens out bacon.
-Faster grilling time for larger meals when grilling for 3 or more people.

Warming the grill press is simple. Place directly on top of the PAN Grill-it™ while the initial warming. Check the handle after 5 minutes. When the handle becomes almost to warm to touch, the press and PAN Grill-it™ is ready to use.
