About this deal

Like the grill on most BBQs, the Big Easy’s stainless-steel cooking chamber needs to be seasoned before first use. Following the guidelines, I used an oil spray bottle to blitz the interior with vegetable oil and then gave it a wipe down with a kitchen towel to get rid of any puddles. I then turned the Big Easy on the High setting and shut the lid to let it burn off. Good grilling space:We were able to grill over 25lbs of meat on the Big Easy, it was surprisingly had a lot of space and nothing felt cramped about it. If you’re doing small lean veggies, like carrots, bundle together with cooking twine and cook with the meat. Don’t cut veggies into chunks/bite size pieces because they’ll slip through the basket. I sliced zucchini lengthwise in halves, left a peeled sweet onion whole, and used small 3-4” size corn on the cob pieces. Even if you've got some top grilling tips up your sleeve, simple BBQ grilling is perhaps where the Char-Broil Big Easy lets itself down, but only if you have a big family or are entertaining. The 38.5cm diameter grill area was perfect for our family of four but there just wasn’t space to feed more.

Obviously, there is more than one technique in terms of smoking. You can either cold smoke (lower temperatures), hot smoke (high temperatures) and smoke roast. Smoke roasting is essentially barbequing. Other things you can smoke The compact tray beneath the heating element collects all the drippings, which you can easily (and carefully) remove, pour into a saucepan, and whip up your favorite turkey gravy. Next, it was time to add the turkey to the fryer. We poured a little more marinade into the included flavor infuser stand, then set it inside the wire basket and lowered it down into the fryer. From there, we added the mesh lid to the top and set a timer, then waited to catch a whiff of the delicious smells. This post, the big easy®charbroil, is a sponsored post. I received compensation for reviewing this product and using it. All of these opinions are mine. Char Broil Big Easy You can use a wire grill brush on the stainless-steel drum but not for cleaning the grill plates or exterior. Happily, the basket and grill plate can go in the dishwasher, although they do take up a lot of space. Char-Broil sells aluminum liners for the grease tray, but I didn’t have any so just emptied out the wasp-ridden grease (gag) and cleaned it with soapy water (it can’t go in the dishwasher).

We are rated as excellent!

We can offer a paid service to build and deliver your BBQ. Please call us first, to discuss your requirements. Around 10 minutes later the chamber had stopped smoking and the metal had turned bronze, which is how you know it is good to go. Char-Broil recommends adding a light spray of oil after each use to keep the chamber seasoned and help prevent any rusting. The instruction guide suggests you treat the cooking chamber in the same way you would a cast iron skillet –i.e., keep it well seasoned and the more you use it, the hotter and more evenly it will cook. Cooking on the Char-Broil Big Easy All pieces on the fryer get hot — really hot. I learned this the hard way when, without thinking, I reached to pull off the lid and nearly burned the fingerprints off my right hand. Be sure to have heat-safe gloves handy (none are included, but should be?) for handling the fryer and attachments. I was hoping to slow roast the pork, pulled pork style, but it was obvious within the first hour that wasn’t going to happen. In fairness, my joint was only about 1.9kg, whereas I’ve always bought a much bigger joint to do pulled pork in the past.

When the turkey was done, reaching a safe temperature (and looking especially delicious with bubbly, seasoned skin), we carefully removed it from the fryer while still inside the basket and let it cool for a few minutes. Then, we used two large forks to transfer the turkey to a platter and covered it with foil to rest for about 20 minutes, as directed in the gadget's instructions.

THE BIG EASY® OIL-LESS TURKEY FRYER

The way I wanted to approach this beauty was from our lifestyle. Ben and I are empty-nesters. A lot of our cooking is just for the two of us or small dinner parties. We no longer do corporate entertaining nor do we have the huge Thanksgiving gatherings of years ago where we would deep-fry, yes, the old fashioned way, three or four turkeys for 30+ guests. So I wanted to see if this gizmo would be the real deal for our small gather of four of us for dinner. Don’t forget to re-season the cooking chamber after cleaning. I generally just wiped the oil from the bottom of the drum, where the fat fell, to avoid interrupting the lovely seasoning that was building up and because I’m too lazy to re-season constantly! And a top tip: popping a layer of foil in the bottom of the drum, with a hole in the fat tray, speeds clean-up. Storing the Char-Broil Big Easy

The safety factors are great—no flames and you don’t have to get rid of used oil. You have to be careful, however, not to touch anything on the equipment once it heats up. So if there are kids around, be EXTRA careful—no touching at all and no getting near the Big Easy. But, this is the same precaution you’d take with most all outdoor grills and young children.Cook times vary depending on outdoor weather conditions and what size bird or cut of meat you’re cooking. Additionally, if the turkey isn’t thawed completely it will have a huge effect on cook time. It’s best for the meat to be at room temperature when placed in the cooker. Last but not least, the grill on top allows for cooking classic barbecue fare such as steaks, burgers and bangers. Another invention by the Char-broil company came after almost 60 years of success - the TRU-Infrared™ Cooking System. Want to know what it does to your food? It distributes the juices and temperature throughout the pot. Your food will taste like it came from a top-level restaurant.

As a roaster, its big, drop-in basket can cook up to 11kg of poultry and vegetables. Roast joints of meat in the basket inserts, or hang spare ribs on the supplied stainless steel hooks and roast until they’re crisp and juicy. In 1984, Char-broils CB940 grill received an award for being the world’s best BBQ grill. Surely, it now seems very clear that Charbroil’s standard is the one to beat out there.

Insurance restrictions mean the delivery driver will not be able to carry the barbecue up or down steps, through a property, wheel the pallet across a gravel driveway or up particularly steep driveways. Unfortunately, the delivery company we use are also unable to remove items from the pallet or take the pallet away with them. The driver will only be able to wheel the pallet as far as physically possible, which may only be kerbside.
