Buying guides – How to choose an indoor grill
Before spending your hard-earned money on a new indoor grill, look for the following things:
1. Temperature Indicator
You need to know when the grill has reached cooking temperature and the best way to do this is by using a temperature indicator: either a light or a beep.
2. Sufficient Power
Every time you check your food, you are releasing a bit of heat. Electric grills can be slow to recover this heat if they are underpowered.
3. Sloped surface and drip tray
You want the grease that runs off your food to drain. So make sure your grill has an angled cooking surface and a pan to catch dripping fat.
4. Removable Cooking Surface and Drip Tray
It is also important that these items are removable. If they aren’t cleaned up, that’s going to be a problem.
5. Maximum temperature of 600 degrees
No, you don’t technically need 600 degrees to cook meat, but the higher your maximum temperature, the more useful your settings will be between settings.
