VIDEO REVIEW: Unboxing, Demo & Slider Hack
When I saw the Homping Grill for sale on Amazon, I thought "FINALLY!" I'll tell you exactly why in a second... First, I have to admit that this was our 6th grill purchase... but, in our defense, each grill we own serves a different purpose. We love 'tailgating' at sporting & music events.
We have tried 3 different portable grills, but the absolute biggest complaint I had was how long they took to cool down! Why does this matter? Traditional grills can take up to an hour to cool off enough to be able to safely put them away. This means you have to plan for an extra hour between the time you eat and the time you want to enter the event. If it's hot - or cold - outside, this is particularly frustrating. Plus, they make such huge messes... You cannot throw any other portable grill's parts in the dishwasher like you can this guy. (See comments)
In comes this bad boy! You can LITERALLY carry this grill while it's cooking. Which means - it's cool enough to put on your plastic folding tabletop, to move if needed, and to put away when you're done. AWESOME! Plus, as you'll see, it only requires 6-8 pieces of charcoal (try doing that with your traditional charcoal grill...). Not only is that cost effective and less to carry, it also means LESS MESS!
So, I urge you to watch the video below and check it out for yourself. In the video, my husband and I show you what's included, how it works, and do a demo of us using the Homping Grill. BUT WAIT... THERE'S MORE... We give you his "secret" on what you need to make the best sliders. I'm sorry honey! (He was not happy when I did this...)
I want to add, they also sell (sometimes you can get a package deal) a "roasting lid" which is fantastic for grilling veggies, or ensuring all the cheese on your burgers is melted. YUM! We paid $199 for this here on Amazon, which, is a decent price considering the uniqueness and portability of this grill... we figured we were spending that anyway with our poorly made 'fold up' grills that we were burning through. So make the investment and just get this one, it'll last.
Please, if this review was helpful, take a second and click "HELPFUL" after this review. This let's me know my taking the time to do these reviews is helpful to other people like me considering this product. It's what encourages me to continue to do these. THANKS!
