An electric grill fills a need for grillers looking to cook outside but might face rules and regulations that prevent them from having a gas open flame grill on their patio, balcony, or outside their apartment or townhouse. Many HOA, apartment, and townhouse homes have regulations that prevent use of open flame grills for BBQ use. Thankfully, there are many options available. Without a doubt, the company offering the closest experience to a flame grill is Kenyon. Below you’ll find reviews for a number of their products. Although they are pricey, Kenyon is the best alternative you’ll find on the market to a gas or charcoal grill. You very well might end up preferring these grills because of their versatility. All of these Kenyon grills are portable and can be used not only outside, but inside as well.
Kenyon Floridian Stainless Steel Electric Outdoor Grill
Our top pick is the Kenyon Floridian Portable Electric Grill. This grill can be used on any surface without worrying if it will burn the counter or tabletop underneath. The compact grill does not emit any residual heat from the bottom or sides of the grill so even the thinnest plastic tablecloth will be safe for use with your grill. Featuring the 1300-Watt element, this grill will exceed temperatures of 550˚F. UL approved for use indoors and out. Kenyon grills are top quality and the heat provides a grill top that rivals any gas or charcoal grill.
Kenyon grills are healthy and safe. The Floridian Portable Grill quickly transfers heat from the concealed electric element, producing the look and taste of high-quality gas grills without any open flames to deposit unwanted material or chemicals onto your food. A built in safety feature shuts the grill off within 60-90 minutes depending on how high you had the heat set at.
Purchase the optional Double Coated Non-Stick Griddle plate to expand the versatility of this grill.
