Cooking outdoors is always fun, if you have the right equipment. The problem is getting the equipment outdoors with you. Most of us have a big gas grill on the deck or patio, but I'm talking about taking a grill with you on your outdoor adventures. Cooking on an open fire is great, but at the campsite we are faced with many challenges and problems in doing this. It's hard to keep the cooking surface level and it's even harder to control the heat of the fire. We've got our portable stoves and they serve their purpose well, but throwing meat in a frying pan just isn't something I like to do when I can avoid it. The VBroiler Mighty Grill is the answer to these problems.

The Mighty Grill is completely portable and very compact. It is 13"x13"x5.5" in the packed state and it weights only 14 ½ pounds. The entire grill folds up into a suitcase, which can be handled and stowed very easily. The Mighty Grill comes equipped with all the necessary bells and whistles to give you more freedom for cooking outdoors. I even use mine at home when I am entertaining and need some extra cooking surface.
This grill offers some things that are hard to find in other models and defiantly hard or impossible to do over an open fire or with a regular camp stove. The first thing to standout is the rotisserie set. This simple, but innovative attachment just may make you the most popular person at camp. There are pros and cons to this, of course. The rotisserie operates on a single 1.5v D-Cell battery. They also provide a heavy-duty 3volt rotisserie motor (two D-cell batteries) for those who use the rotisserie frequently. Throw on the rotating basket and you can cook nearly anything rotisserie style. Yummy!

The heat is distributed via a vertical firebox. The firebox produces a "wall of heat" that cooks from the rear of the grill. It's a simple process called convection. The cooking surfaces are standard grids. They fit and resemble the inside of a conventional oven. Basically, it's a couple of racks. The insulated sidewalls of the Mighty Grill trap heat in a cooking region surrounding the grids to disperse heat around the cooking surfaces and to provide efficient open air grilling.

Here is some interesting information from the VBroiler website. "The American Institute for Cancer Research has found grease drippings on hot coals or stones may produce polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) - a known carcinogen that is deposited back onto the meats by flames that char or burn the meats. Because "vertical" grills substantially reduce or avoid this "grease-burning" phenomenon, PAHs can be eliminated altogether for healthier cooking." Just another fact that should help you make the decision to buy and use this grill.

The charcoal model comes with an easy to use removable firebox. This works great for keeping the grill clean and helps with the cooking process. Forget the hassle of trying to get you briquettes stacked just right. Just throw them into the vertical firebox, light them and wait about 15 minutes for the grill to reach a good cooking temperate.
There is also a propane version of this grill. What is great about this set up is the fact that the propane burner and the charcoal firebox are interchangeable. You can get one Mighty Grill and use it for either. That's what I call a versatile cooking device.

Another accessory that sets this grill above the rest is the deep fryer. It's simple to use, because it hangs on the face of the charcoal firebox, or on a support rod in front of the propane burner unit. It will heat the cooking oils to between 325 to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. The oil reaches a good frying temperature in about 4-6 minutes. Remember that frying can be dangerous, so please follow the instructions for doing so very carefully while using this grill.
The Mighty Grill is exactly what it clams to be. They say it's the world's most compact grill, but I say it's the worlds most complete and versatile, portable cooking utility. Take the Mighty Grill with you on your next outing. For more information please see the VBroiler website. http://www.vbroiler.com
