If you are like most people, you have probably set some resolutions for the New Year. We are no different here at TEC Infrared Grills, and because we love everything about grills and grilling, you might guess that our resolution is to “Grill More”. We think you should join us on this year long quest, and here are 5 reasons why you too should grill more this year:
1. Grilling is Healthier
Grilling is a natural way to cook healthier. You don’t need to use as much fat or oil to grill. But you still get a lot flavor in your food, especially when drippings or liquids incinerate on our infrared glass panels, which baste the food with that distinctive grilled flavor. Since we use infrared heat, food retains up to 35% more of its natural juices, so it stays moist and you will relish every bite. The bonus is that grilling also keeps more vitamins and minerals in the food.
2. Easy Clean Up
Don’t you wish you had someone to clean up after you when you are finished cooking? Well, grilling gives you just that! TEC Infrared Grills are just like a self-cleaning oven, so clean up is quick and easy. Just close the hood and turn your grill on high for 10-15 minutes to incinerate food drippings. Brush off the grates and the glass panels, and you are done!
3. Grill Faster
Sometimes you just need to get a quick meal on the table, especially this time of year. Grilling is a great cooking method when you are pressed for time. TEC Infrared Grills heat up so quickly that you can be ready to grill in less than 10 minutes. Our grills also cook the food faster than traditional grills, so you will have dinner ready in no time.
4. Grill Everything
A lot of people think grilling is just for steaks or burgers. But you can grill just about anything, making it one of the most versatile cooking methods! Here at TEC Infrared Grills, we use our grills literally every day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Think vegetables and fruit, seafood, smoked meats, dessert, even to boil water! Follow us on Facebook or Instagram for recipe ideas of what we are putting on the grill today.
5. Time with Friends and Family
With our hectic lives these days, it is sometimes hard to find time to spend with family and friends. But gathering around the grill is a time-honored tradition dating back thousands of years. We are all attracted to the warmth of the grill, and to that distinctive smell of delicious grilled food. So the next time you are standing there waiting for your food to cook on the grill, take a moment to check in with your family (and not check your email!). Or invite friends over for a grilling party, no one will say no to that!
What are your New Year’s resolutions? Is grilling on the list? We certainly hope so, and think that it is a resolution that you can keep all year long!
