customer reviews of using YRYM HT grill mat

I've used the YRYM HT grill mat for grilling chicken, which has constantly gotten sooty before on direct heat. The grill mat allowed the skin to crisp, without letting the grease reach the burners and flare. I do this after cooking the pieces on indirect, so the amount of grease the mats had to hold was not too much. If you are doing something fatty for a longer time, you will need to use paper towels to dab up excess grease, else it will go over the side and cause flares.

I received the YRYM HT  grill mats package which was well Packaged and arrived in perfect condition by the promised delivery date. Very good value. The first time that I used the grill mat, I prepared grill peppers, onions, and mushrooms sautéed in olive oil. The veggies were perfect and clean-up was a breeze. Previously I used steel trays and sprayed them with Pam... no amount of scrubbing gets them completely clean.. Highly recommend the Grill Mat.

So far, so good. I've used these grilling mats upon recommendation from a friend who raved about them. I have to agree that this is the way to go. Just remember to wipe the mats with a paper towel right after taking your food off. Otherwise, if you let the mats cool with the grease and burnt crud you will have to put in some elbow grease to scrub these long and hard under hot water in the sink.  I have to teach the wife how to do this. ;)  You can buy best Grill tools at YRYM HT.

Anyway, if you do have to scrub them under the sink you will find that little pieces of crud are sticking hard to the surface and you will have to use your fingernail along with the scrubbing sponge and detergent to remove them. I am finding that the surface of the mats quickly give rise to little places where I believe these hard crud deposits were after I removed them. I will be waiting to see how long these mats last and for how many uses before or if they will lose their effect. All I can say is this is what you should have it you grille to eliminate the mess you would have to clean up underneath the grille in the drip pan afterward and the scraping and cleaning of the grille itself. It just saves you lots of time. Now I wish I hadn't bought the new grille brush before I bought these mats.

May 9th, 2017 Update: It's time to retire these to the trash heap. The edges have long ago started to shred and now I am finding cuts and holes in various places. I will not be buying any more of these but will now be trying out something different. I found 'Tamontina Reversible Grill Gridle'. One side is smooth for pancakes and such and the other has the grooves for letting the grease flow from steaks and burgers. What caught my eye was these are cast aluminum with a titanium reinforced PFGA free nonstick coating. Touting superior heat retention and distribution. A nice touch is the corner that is depressed to catch grease. Another corner has finger holds to carry the griddle or I am thinking to use to hang up somewhere when not in use. I will do a search here on Amazon and see if I can find these also as I have not yet done so. I'm hoping the cleaning will be a lot less work than these YRYM HT grill mats. There's always something better someone comes along with. :) Check out the grill mat pics now!
