Chops Power Injector Systems Are Perfect For BBQ Caterers
If you are a BBQ caterer or restaurateur or a competitor, or even a weekend warrior who cooks for a crowd, you need this injector!
Need State of the Art Equipment? Get The Pork Injector
The Pork Injector is a motorized "Auto Pump Injector System" that is state of the art and can really save you time and hand cramps if you have to inject a lot of meat.
NoCents 1 Gallon Injector Is A BBQ Competition Favorite
Many competition cooks and caterers use big pumps like this one. A single needle and a gallon jug allow you to inject lots of food fast.
Spitjack 2-Ounce Injector Gun Is A Step Up From Basic Stainless Models
This injector is a serious tool for competition barbecue. You can order it with 1, 2, or 3 needles. It's a step up from basic stainless models in that you can dial in the amount of injection liquid being injected and you don't have to pull out slowly as you inject like you do with other models.
Premiala Injector Gets The Job Done On a Budget
This heavy 304 grade stainless steel injector (most others are plastic or a cheaper metal with a chrome coat) holds 2 ounces of fluid and comes with three needles, an 8 cm (3") for thin cuts of meat, and two 15 cm (6") needles for thicker cuts.
Grillbot Proves That Hands Are A Cook’s Best Tools
The Grillbot manufacturer has succeeded in doing something very well: getting publicity. Scores of publications and TV shows have featured it as a cool device and gift idea. Unfortunately, it doesn't live up to the hype.
Scrub and Spray Brushes Look Great on Paper, Less Great on the Grill
Seems like a good idea, right? An all-in-one scraper and steamer! Don't bother. It's easier and cheaper to just drip some water on your grill grates while you scrub to create steam.
Tool Wizard BBQ Brush Doesn’t Last Long
This device uses a woven stainless steel pad that does a great job of cleaning the grates. But the steel pad doesn't last long and begins to disintegrate. Replacement pads are not cheap.
GrillStone Grill Cleaner Starter Set Has Some Drawbacks
These pumice-like bricks do an admirable job of cleaning grill grates. But they leave behind dust that needs to be wiped off the grill before you cook. And they're not recommended for porcelain enameled or cast iron grates.
The Last Brush is Also One of the Longest
This long handled brush is perfect if you have a deep barbecue pit or catering rig to clean.
Bamboo Grill Brush Is Simple And Effective
This straightforward, inexpensive, no-frills grill brush is still the easiest and most effective way to remove grease from your grill grates. When it gets too gunked up, replace it.
GrillFloss Scrubs Between the Bars of Your Grill Grate
Similar to the Billy Bar, GrillFloss has an angled head that makes it easier to clean the sides and undersides of grill grates.
For Really Gunked Up Grills, Use a Portable Steam Cleaner
It takes a long time, so this is not something to use after every cook. But a portable steam cleaner will scrub away even the toughest grime on your grill grates and heat deflector plates. I use mine once a year.
