I was skeptical at first but was very encouraged by the reviews. So I bought the grill mat. Man do I love these. They cook extremely well and help to keep the grill clean. Heat transfer is perfect and you even get the grill marks on the meat. I have purchased more grill mats for my home grill as well. Very easy to trim to shape. Very easy to clean. Just put them in some soapy water, wipe and dry. that's it. Used these for the first time tonight for our kebabs. Everything cooked so evenly and didn't dry out. Can't wait to try more things! Also, love the customer service. They followed up to make sure everything was satisfactory and I love that :) So far, I've only used it to grill chicken and it worked perfectly. Still got the sear lines through the mats, and the best part is that for the first time ever I grilled chicken that didn't stick to the grates. Clean up was a breeze. We'll be using these a lot this summer! We really like these, but they are hard to clean. If you have very juicy/greasy food, the grease can pool up on these. But it saves us from cleaning the grill when we want to make it a quick evening meal.
These grill mats are great because you can take them off and wash them which saves me a lot of time! I had problems on my gas grill with flames shooting up on my ribeye steak and the steak drying out. Now, thankfully, the juices are retained with the grill mat. A small secret to share.....coat your steak with corn starch (do not skimp) and sprinkle with kosher salt, and place on grill mat. You will be in for a treat. These work great! Fast shipping, and the 2 included mats fit perfectly on my grill, with a little spacing around the edges. Washed them and put them on the grill after drying them. Fired up the grill, cooked some kebabs and hobo pies, and had grill marks and singes all around. Quick clean up afterwards - great product!
These mats are amazing. They provide a very easy way to cook and avoid flare ups. A couple of things to be aware of, the grease from the food does puddle around the food and when turning just move the food around to avoid the grease. Then push the grease off the mat. The biggest thing is the grill flavor, it does not have this. The flavor of the grill is from the grease hitting the flavor bars and this does not happen with the mats. Trade offs but the mats work very well as advertised. I was skeptical about its durability and ability to hold up to high heat, but I was proven wrong: the mat works exactly as advertised transferring the heat to the food without degrading or warping. Grill marks appear on food as though it was directly on the grate. And, it cleans up like a breeze (either wipe down or put in dishwasher). We are finding these mats much easier and more convenient to use than metal fish/veggie grillers and am very happy we purchased them. We have recommended these to mats to friends and family.
