What kind of metal grilling plates were used in the burger grilling machines of the seventies?

I was interested in using an old hamburger maker on which to cook burgers, but I wanted to know what kind of metal was under the black teflon coating? When you placed your hamburger patty onto the grill circle, there was a drainage piece that allowed burger fat juices. Were the grilling plates, themselves, made of alluminum, steel, iron or what? LMK and thanks.

It would seem they would be similar to skillets that have a Teflon coating, aluminum or stainless steel……

Is there a noticeable difference between grilling and oven-cooked meat?

I’ve been thinking of getting a charcoal grill for a while now. Right now I mainly cook chicken in the oven and set it to 450 for 15-20 min then to broil last 5 min to char it (I love charred). It turns out okay but I was wondering if grilling it would be any better and worth the hassle of cleaning and maintaining the grill.

What do you think?

Flame broiling tastes better than oven broiling. But charcoal briquettes aren’t as good as using hardwood charcoal (which is real wood) because real wood has smoke that also adds flavor of the wood, like mesquite, hickory, or applewood.

In CHicago, Is there a grilling ordinance that says how far from a neighbor’s bedroom window a grill should be?

Hi. In Chicago, we are told that grilling is legal on cement balconies. However, some balconies seem to have grills just a few feet from a neighbor’s bedroom or living room window. Is there any ordinance that addresses this situation?

yes there is also one that says how far the hotdogs have to be from the hamburgers

Hey Dillon,,

I’ve got a very fine grilled chicken recipe for you from my 2005 Southern Living cookbook. Here it is.

Lexington-Style Grilled Chicken

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 40 minutes
Chill: 2 hours
Yield: Makes 8 to 10 servings
Ingredients
2 cups cider vinegar
1/4 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons dried crushed red pepper
4 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons pepper
2 (2 1/2- to 3-pound) cut-up whole chickens*
Preparation
Stir together first 6 ingredients until blended.

Place half each of vinegar mixture and chicken in a large zip-top plastic freezer bag; seal. Repeat procedure with remaining vinegar mixture and chicken, placing in a separate zip-top plastic freezer bag. Chill chicken at least 2 hours or up to 8 hours, turning occasionally.

Remove chicken from marinade, discarding marinade.

Grill chicken, covered with grill lid, over medium-high heat (350° to 400°) 35 to 40 minutes or until done, turning occasionally.

*8 skinned and boned chicken breast halves and 8 skinned and boned chicken thighs may be substituted for whole chickens. Chill in marinade at least 1 to 2 hours, turning occasionally. Grill chicken, covered with grill lid, over medium-high heat (350° to 400°) 4 to 5 minutes on each side or until done.

Enjoy,

Sam

It’s getting warm and we’re starting to grill out.
Do you have any good grilling tips? Recipes? Secrets??

Take about 6 potato’s and cut into eighths. Boil for about 10 minutes. Lay out some foil…enough to put potato’s in and fold up. Place potato’s in the foil and add 1 stick of butter, 1/2 of a small onion, garlic salt to taste. Lowery’s seasoned pepper… and Seasoned salt. Fold together and place on grill for about 20- 30 minutes.

Any tips on grilling portabella mushroom slices, to make them especially tender?

admin — Fri, 29 Oct 2010 15:05:52 +0000

I have TMJ dysfunction (jaw pain) and can’t eat any hard or chewy foods. I’d like tips on grilling portabella mushroom slces (for a fajita) so they are very tender and not too chewy. Thanks!

grill them whole, then slice after. Use olive oil and grill for about 2-3 minutes per side. Allow to cool for a couple of minutes…this makes sure very little juice leaks out. Use salt for flavor after, if you do it before you grill, it draws out the liquid and makes the mushroom tougher. Hope that helps!

Here’s a great summer time meal. I make two Kabob recipes, one super easy and one a little harder, both with chicken, beef and shrimp. You can just make one and use one meat if you’d like. Try the peanut sauce at the end. it’s super yum.
