Char-Broil TRU Infrared Electric Patio Bistro 180 Grill Review

I recommend this small but sturdy electric outdoor grill.

It only took me about 10 minutes to assemble. The manual instructs you to run it on high for 20 minutes before putting food into it to season it. So I was ready to cook in 30 minutes after I opened the box.

The unit gives me much better control of the temperature compared to my 22" Weber charcoal grill. As an experienced outdoor cook, I really appreciate this. The thermometer in the dome is very useful, as you know instantly what your cooking temperature is when you close the lid. The electric heating element (the part that gets red hot) is substantial and appears to be of high quality. The grill surface itself appears to be of the highest quality, and the manual claims that it emits infra red heat. It is made of metal, feels hefty, and gives you a circular cooking surface that is 15 inches in diameter. The metal is cast into grates so you get a nice grill mark, and the metal is covered with what appears to be a fired black colored glaze.

When the grill is assembled, the heating element sits quite close to the grill/infra-red heat emitter.

It browns very well but can burn your meat, if you are not checking it and turning it every 4-5 minutes. The temperature as indicated on the built in thermometer drops a good 50 degrees when you open the lid for a minute or so (checking on the meat etc.). It takes about 3-4 minutes for the cooking temperature to rebound, and this is very consistent. When the controller is set at medium (3) it stays around 350 very reliably.

This extra control in the cooking temperature has allowed me to achieve excellent cooking results. The way a small amount of the grease drips onto the heating element creates plenty of smoke, so it always has that outdoor cooked flavor.

It is fairly easy to clean, and my grill unit did not have the sharp edges that the manual warned about, otherwise I would have surelycut myself by now as I clean it with warm water and dish soap. The cooked-on crusty residue comes off fairly easily with a ScotchBrite pad, with some scrubbing. It usually takes 5-10 minutes to clean the thing by hand. I wouldn't use steel wool on this thing, because I don't want to scratch the glazed surface.

It is priced lower than the similar Weber unit, and is a bit smaller, so I feel I made a good purchase.

I have enjoyed using it so far, and recommend it for someone who is cooking for a few people (or only for yourself). I would use a larger unit if I am cooking for a crowd.
