Warm simple foods for Cold Days

As the weather turns cold just after Thanksgiving here in the Midwest, we  slowly adjust to it getting dark early. This means the more likely we'll spend time indoors throwing ideas around for foods that warm us and make us feel good. Of course there's the slow cooker and 8 hours later effect but it's hard to plan that far in advance. Plus, living solo why would I want to fuss?

This is a must try. I almost think the PAN Grill-it could be the missing link to steam grilled potatoes.

Insert the PAN Grill-it in to the 12"skillet. Heat on high for 10 minutes. Then turn to medium heat.

Wash and place White Yukon Gold potatoes onto the PAN Grill-it. Add bacon and green beans as seen in the pictures for more foods and flavor. 

In about 5 minutes, flip the foods just once, recover and continue to heat for 8 minutes.

Some also great tips with this dish; Try cutting the potatoes four ways then add shredded cheese. Cover for only a minute. Top with diced green onions and sour cream. Below is apple bacon, Yukon gold white potatoes, fresh green beans. Stay tune for more great grilling ideas. www.pangrillit.com

Skillet Fest 2012 Quitman, GA My Journey

What is The Skillet Festival? It's been going on for two years now in Quitman, GA whcih is just 20 miles west of Valdosta, GA. I had originally found out about the event through Twitter. The organizer worked for the Chamber of Commerce. Pictures seen here was part of their annual skillet throwing contest. Local and famous chefs in and around the area also competed on stage and were given 45 minutes to prepare thier dish for voting. In a town of just 5,000 people there were 2,500 people in attendance. It was such a fun life experience not only becuase of their wonderful hospitality but appreciation for PAN Grill-it traveling 1,100 miles. We succeeeded record breaking sales in just under four hours.
I admit I was a bit nervous. Never had I did an event outside of Michigan. This was such a great event and will definatley be covered next year. The next festival is tentitvely scheduled for October 21st 2013.

Additive verses No Additives PAN Grill-it Style

Additives have been used for centuries in conjunction with the foods eat and enjoy . Do we need them? Or perhaps we have grown accustom to using them from acquired tastes from when our parents made meals.  Not only from a health perspective, but can you enjoy this sandwich with or without butter? Both were delicious...

Weather Permitting? Four Seasons Grilling

Cold Weather Grilling
 

How important has grilling become to us as a culture here in the United States? It’s become so important that it’s a booming two billion plus a year market. But the lingering question is how has something that is so dependent on varying factors, such as the weather or the right equipment, become such a marketable thing. It’s because now there are ways to make this a year round activity.

Winter-grilling is a phrase that only a few years ago, you could mention to your buddy that you really want some burgers and to capture all the essence that is the right seasonings and the char that blends itself in so nicely with the juicy meats that you’ve cooked up. The only problem with that, is your buddy looks at you like you’re a crazy person, because the weather outside has dipped below 20 degrees, there is eighteen inches of snow and ice on the ground and the lid to your grill is frozen shut with a sheet of ice so thick, you could play hockey on it. The weather outside is already frightful enough without having to dress up in every piece of clothing you own to drive on ice and snow infested roads the three miles down to the gas station to try and pick up a propane tank because you didn’t think you needed to refill it since it was the heart of winter.

But now, winter-grilling is even easier and accessible, especially thanks to products such as our Pan Grill-It™. So how about you turn your thermostat up to 85, walk around your house or apartment in shorts and a t-shirt and sit comfortably on your couch with the TV playing your favorite winter time movies, such as A Christmas Story or It’s A Wonderful Life, while you do all of your winter-grilling from the comfort of your own kitchen.

“I never thought of grilling as a year round event,” a recent Pan Grill-It™ customer told us. “When the summer ended, the cover went on our grill and that’s the last we thought of it until April or May. Winter-grilling just didn’t seem feasible, and nobody wanted to deal with the weather or the hassle of standing outside decked out in snow suits and extra coats, just to get some burgers or steaks that were going to be frozen again almost as soon as we’d be able to take them off the grill.”That’s another thing of the past. With the Pan Grill-It™, even though the temperatures outside are below freezing, it absolutely doesn’t mean that your food would have to be, and you still get that fresh off the grill taste. The cast-iron insert fits in any ordinary twelve inch pan and after you let it heat up after only a few moments, you’ll be ready to get your winter-grilling on with no hassle, or breaking your fingers or hand trying to turn the knob on a frozen propane tank, or using your car scraper to break off any ice or snow that’s surely collected on the top of your grill. Plus, you won’t have to wait for an hour for the temperatures to finally get up to par. So when you’re standing by your window with a coffee or hot chocolate in hand, watching as the first flakes of the first snowfall start to come down and rest gently on your lawn or your balcony, the smells that will encompass your house will be that of summer and a good time as the burgers and steak and bratwursts and sausages and grilled vegetables you’ve been craving since August will ensnare your sense of smell and taste as the Pan Grill-It™ made your winter-grilling experience a whole lot easier.
