Nice cover for the money. Thick material, snug fit. Works well with my 36in blackstone!
I was looking for something like this for our camping trips, which usually have 5 to 8 people. I was debating whether to buy this one or another one from a different store. I am glad that I chose this one. 1. It is sturdy and well-made. Each stitch is solid and durable. 2. It was smaller than I thought when I just received it. But after opening it and putting the flaps down. The shape looks much better, and it seems more significant. 3. The aluminum layer inside is very thick and durable. It's not thin at all. 4. The separator in the middle is fixed. I mean, stuff from one side cannot go to another site. I strongly recommend it.
This is one of my favorite gifts for my boyfriend. I can't wait until he opens it.
I ordered this kit with the idea that I will likely use it as either a Christmas or Wedding Gift. I'm hoping that I don't "cave" and keep it for myself! It's a really nice assortment of quality items for the backyard chef in your family. Only one item needs assembly -- you'll need to attach the handle onto the basing cover -- very simple task with a screwdriver. I was surprised by how they managed to nicely fit all of these items into the box! The various cooking utensils in the kit are nice and heavy -- sturdier than I would have expected given the list price. Having done my share of backyard BBQ-ing, I can tell you that these will last a good, long time if properly cared for. I rate this as a great value for the price.
As soon as it arrived I was like wow the quality is amazing I hurryied to show my husband his face was priceless he is following his dream to be a chef and he just fell in love with this set !!
I like the ease of assembly and appearance. I don’t care for the pull handle and Velcro strap. These two features are cheap and lessens the stability when attempting to pull the cart.
This is not a ceramic/aluminum griddle as advertised. It’s a cheap stamped metal that’s been painted. I can’t believe they charge $50 for this.
Received the "sportula" today. Handle has chips, flipper has scratches. Was this in someone's basement collection??
Terrible Quality. Ash Rake weld failed. Grate grabber not correct geometry to fit between grates for safe pickup. I would pay more for better USA made quality. Tired of Chinese made junk!
The tongs broke on the first use. Tried to email the company and haven’t heard anything after registering them.
If you have been looking to get consistent grill marks like these....this is it...I've read other reviews that others have posted...they never read the instructions...It clearly states, you need to season them before use ☝️🤓 ..These are the cats meow....not even kidding...I bought this particular set because I only need a small area for what we grill, but...these are for the Weber 18-1/2" kettle grill and plenty big enough for my needs..and use them on my 22" Weber kettle, my bigass grill, my smaller smokey Joe as well...When you use these, you only need to use about a half chimney amount of coals, and spread them out so the hot coals cover the same dimensions of the GrillGrates...if you do it cold before you light the coals, this will help to determine how much or how many briquettes to use...the trick is to get the surface temp of the grates up to 500°F...a wireless non contact type of thermometer works the best for this... they're inexpensive and indispensable...The pork steaks you see in my pictures, are about an inch or so thick...I laid them out so they point in the 2 o'clock position, press them down for the 1st 15 seconds...set your timer for 2 min, after the 2 min, rotate to the left to the 10 o'clock position, and press down again for a few seconds, set the timer for 2 min....after that flip them over and repeat....these were done to med rare when they were pulled and wrapped, and they finished to a safe med rare...you can see the results I got...same with boneless skinless chicken thighs...but always check your internal temps with a fast read instant thermometer...again, you can find those here on outdoorcooking.us.com, this Instant read thermometer is a necessary tool to have if you cook on the grill...and as far as the GrillGrates...get them, you will not be disappointed...just read the user guide and watch a few YT videos...it doesnt get any easier than this...oh, as far as the ones who got a warped set...yeah, i doubt that..GrillGrates will replace them in a flash..and the ones who claim they warped them, yeah...they had their temps WAY above the 700°F limit and I'm certain GrillGrates suggests you stay away from that range... again...they didn't read the user guide...have fun, enjoy being the envy
This was a gift for my husband and as soon as he lifted the case up from the handle it broke! I specifically bought it with the case so his grilling tools would store easy and would be easy to carry around but how could they have made the handle so flimsy??! The tools inside are nice, but I could have bought all these separately and it would have cost me less, than to receive all of this at over $55 with a broken case handle!
We just opened it. Looks good but there is no way much of it will fit in the little flimsy bag. I mean, why bother.
I wanted a rotisserie. I'd been spatchcocking chickens which works fine, but then I smoked a pork shoulder and it turned out fine, but a rotisserie pork shoulder? That seemed like a level up, plus it's a better way to cook whole chickens. I was disappointed that the Weber rotisserie was carbon steel, and most Weber equipment is made in China now anyway, so I saw this and at least it's not a unitasker that would require me to also buy a pizza attachment later so I pulled the trigger. As it turns out, I haven't even used the rotisserie yet but I've used the pizza feature twice. I was concerned about making temperature in the pizza kettle because of the large opening, but now I realize that is not a concern at all. In fact, after seeing a few videos with the plastic grip on the Weber kettle melting, I was concerned about getting the lid too hot. I saw some comments about putting heat above the pizza and also researched the "kettle steel" accessory for radiant heat reflection. I already had a cast iron Craycort grate so I put that on top and covered it with foil. I figured this would protect the vent handle, get the flames closer to the top of the pizza and also absorb thermal heat and radiate it back down as radiant heat. I don't have any basis of comparison, but I think this worked well and I plan to continue this. The part I didn't know is that the Kettlepizza IS made in the USA (unlike Weber accessories). The other thing is the Kettlepizza can be adjusted for either 18" or 22.5" grills. I have a Weber Jumbo Joe that use for traveling and camping, so I could see the 18" feature coming in handy. A few other thoughts: - The Onlyfire unit is a single piece ring with a formed bottom that sits over the kettle so it seems like a better fit than the Kettlepizza which is a single flat ring that sits inside the grill - The complaints about getting grates in and out of the Onlyfire are a true concern. If found an easier way to do this, but it still requires using a screwdriver to pry the grate past a couple of the rivets to get the grate into place. Once there, the grate won't spin at all so you need to have it aligned before popping into place. I may drill out a couple of the rivets and reinstall them backwards to correct this challenge. - Another review mentioned a rotisserie damper not fitting correctly. That one goes on the inside of the ring, not the outside as the reviewer pictured. Then it fits fine. - The Ace Hardware youtube reviewer guy intentionally installed the hinged cooking grate upside down in his Kettlepizza. This works "grate" because it keeps the handles out of the way but allows an opening at the back to add charcoal / wood. - The photo attached looks like it's upside down. I have no idea why - the original is correctly oriented. Final thoughts: - Great results for pizza. If you want something for pizza, buy this or the Kettlepizza. I don't think you'll be disappointed either way. Kettlepizza is made in USA which I didn't realize at the time I purchased the Onlyfire. I'll assuage my guilt by buying some of Kettlepizza's stuff too (see below). - I intend to purchase (request for Christmas) the Kettle pizza pro grate + tombstone. This would make sure the stone cannot slide and I could leave it in the ring permanently instead of removing the grate to use for other cooks (I will edit review one I determine it will fit the Onlyfire). - I may still purchase a Kettlepizza for use on my 18" so I can take it on trips and / or have two grills going at once for larger groups. I think the Onlyfire is a great improvement on the original Kettlepizza but some of the original Kettlefire accessories should be a good addition. If you intend to use for both rotisserie and pizza, you will find this a good value.
The Titan Outdoor Open Fire Pit Roaster is a superb product! We roasted a 77 pound pig on New Year’s Eve and it held up for the almost eight hours it took to roast. It was very easy to assemble and disassemble after it cooled. Another advantage is that it took very little effort to clean. It is made of polished stainless steel that adds to its sturdiness and ease of cleaning. Storage has also been thought of as it comes with a small duffel bag for this purpose. The motor gave no issues either! We turned it on and it worked through the eight hours with ease. I recommend this product while heartedly! Would I buy it again? YES! I would even buy it as a gift.
