Grillstream Technology (in conjunction with Leisuregrow BBQ)

Introduced to the world in 2011 exclusively by Leisure Grow in the UK and Ireland, the relatively new Grillstream technology has taken the barbecue world by storm by revolutionizing BBQ cooking and eradicating common problems. Originally only available on gas barbecues, Grillstream have introduced the “360” – a round cooking grate that manipulates the ingenious design and innovation of the original Grillstream grates for all 47cm and 57cm charcoal kettles.

What is Grillstream?

The driving functionality behind the Grillstream cooking grates is to eliminate flare-ups and fat fires from dripping meat fats by utilising specially shaped double-decker cooking grates to capture as much liquid as possible and either recycle it by burning it off to create flavoursome smoke to infuse the food or channeling it down into a disposal vessel.

The Grillstream system has been designed to replace standard barbecue cooking grates and offer a number of benefits for the health conscious al-fresco chef. The unique cooking grates feature ‘u’ shaped bars which collect dripping fats and juices, drawing them away from the meat and down into a fat-catcher channel conveniently situated at the front of the bbq for easy disposal – particularly useful for fatty meats like steaks and sausages! However the real genius lies in the fact that as these juices stream down the grates, much of the excess juice is heated to evaporating point and the steam/smoke & moisture infuses the food for optimal taste and texture.

Why use Grillstream?

Leisuregrow Grillstream barbecues have been configured to primarily prevent dangerous and inconvenient flare-ups which can ruin a well thought out meal by draining off any excess fat before it hits the burners below. This also means your barbecue is much easier to keep clean and in working order for longer. Below the Grillstream grates you will find a heat disperser which works to spread pinpoint heat from the gas burners across the whole cooking surface area and keep it at a uniform optimal smoke point temperature whilst using 30% less gas per hour than standard barbecues. Both layers of grates and the heat disperser are removable for easy cleaning as is the fat-catcher cup.
