Grill Reviews

We love making chicken kabobs, so after burning our fingers trying to turn the bamboo skewers (blackened on the ends and all), we finally decided to purchase this great kabob basket. The skewers are sharp and easy to use, they go back in the basket, then lock and go grill. You can turn all the skewers in one turn. I bought this for my husband for his birthday. He bought me a little grill, so I thought he deserved it.

i think i'm the first reviewer on this wonderful item, but it won't be long before 5 star reviews cover this page! i've used the hamburger basket for almost a year now,and still love it. it's made for grilling up to four burgers, but you can also use it for 2-3 steaks, chops etc. if a flare up occurs you can simply lift your burgers or steaks off the fire all at once!they say not to put all your eggs in one basket,but putting all your meat in one basket is the only way to go!! it really should be included in any griller's accessary kit.an easy 5 stars!!!

Living in Alaska I cook/grill a lot of fish. Not tiny fish but BIG fish. And it was great when I saw this over-sized spatula. It was like it was made just for me. lol

It is easy to use. Just slip this puppy under what ever you are cooking and flip it over. No worries about losing half or so of what ever you are cooking. No worries about having to have another person standing next to you using another spatula (or two more people depending on what you are cooking) to turn it over.

It is very easy to use. And easy to clean up. Plus the rosewood looks great.

Me I don't hang mine up, I put it in with my other bbq goodies, but the little "handle" is cool too.

This is a good size basket for vegetables, seafood, and/or a mixture of foods. The recipe on the wrapping is good, and gives one ideas for other ways to use it. My complaint with it is that it comes with no directions for use. I had to come back to this web-site to see a picture of the basket with the handle attached to see how it should go on, and even that is hard to see well. I wish I knew if I should preheat the basket, add any oil to ensure the non-sticking, and how hot I should use the barbeque???

This basket is HUGE! I don't care too much for the detachable handle, it's kind of awkward to lift and shake. The basket is heavy, and even heavier with the food in it. I love the idea of the basket itself, and it holds so much, I don't think anyone with a grill should be without one. Although, there is room for improvement.

I've spent plenty of money on extremely frail barbeque products that got completely rusted, bent, or just broken. The Charcoal Companion Bar-B-que Shaker Basket certainly isn't a product that breaks down easily or doesn't do what it is supposed to do. The price is certainly right, and although that there's nothing exceptionally unique to this product, it's absolutely unbreakable and I recommend this over most other barbeque cookers.

This is just what we have been looking for to cook the fresh Tuna steaks and Mahai mahai we caught off Hatteras NC. We have a porcelian cooker with holes in it but when you turn the fish over, it strips the outside off. This will be just the thing!

I received the Grill Brush as a gift. We barbeque 12 months a year - in rain, snow and sunshine. My grill gets a workout. Most brushes I have used have either melted down after prolonged use, or the handles could not withstand the pressure while cleaning. This brush removes the grime and takes a beating. This brush is well worth the investment to have a clean grill each time you begin to cook a masterpiece!

Chimney starters are the only way to go for charcoal. However, do not by this one! As with another review, I also had one of the rivets holding the handle on pop. It also rusted out after the first use. BUY THE WEBER VERSION! I have now had the Weber version for over a year and it is still going strong with weekly use. Price is usually the same.

Amazon used to offer the Weber Charcoal Chimney at the same price. The Weber Charcoal Starter is 1000% better than this product. I had one of these and once when dumping the coals the upper rivet (yes rivet) came lose and the hot coals spilled out. Could have been a disaster.

Amazon no longer carries the Weber Charcoal Chimney; they list it as discontinued. Weber still makes their chimney and if you saw both of them side by side, there's no comparison. Weber is larger, sturdier, and safer.

Lobby Amazon to carry the Weber again, or do yourself a favor and search Google for the Weber. It retails at 19.99 even if you have to pay full price. Well worth it.

Folks, bottomline, this is the only way to light charcoal. It really doesn't matter what brand you buy - it's a pretty simple device.
