Elite Gourmet EMG6505G 12" Smokeless Indoor Electric BBQ Grill with Glass Lid Dishwasher Safe, Nonstick, Adjustable Temperature, Fast Heat Up, Low-Fat Meals Easy to Clean Design

This works great! It cooks food perfectly and doesn't take up too much counter space. It arrived on time and in great condition. Easy to clean as well. Comes apart easily and easy to re assemble.

This is a terrific indoor grill. We originally bought this in 2021 to make Korean bbq at home - and it worked great for that! But we don't eat K-bbq all that often and, quite honestly, forgot that the grill existed. Then, last month, when our grill pan once again generated enough smoke to fill the kitchen, I was just about to search for an alternative - when I remembered this electric tabletop grill, just hiding out in our pantry. After dusting it off and plugging it in, we were in business! We've now used it at least eight times in two weeks, and it couldn't be easier. It heats very quickly and maintains a solidly hot surface. Food - from vegetables to all kinds of meat - cooks fast and evenly; there are no "hot spots" on the grill. Perhaps best of all, the grill surface cleans off ridiculously easily. I'm used to having to fight with our grill pan to get it clean (and I remember the days of "scraping" our George Foreman grill with the little plastic tool), so to have any oil or residue virtually slide off the surface is remarkable. It's not too hot after use. It's simple to store and pull out. The 14" is a great size for our needs. It's become an absolute must-have in our kitchen. So glad I remembered that this grill existed!

I bought one of these for myself and absolutely loved it, so I bought one for both of my adult daughters. It doesn’t smoke when cooking so it’s like using a pan. It’s very easy to take apart and clean the removable plate. The nonstick plate is truly nonstick and it cooks in a reasonable amount of time. Definitely worth the money!

I just received this item and used it as soon as I could wash it and preheat it. I marinated chicken breasts in anticipation of receiving the grill. It is so easy to use. It's a perfect size and price. I wanted something simple to operate and easy to clean. It grilled my chicken perfectly then I took the grill piece when it cooled and put it in the dishwasher. It cleaned up beautifully. It's not bulky so I found a spot in the kitchen to store it because I plan on using it a lot. I do all the cooking and grilling and I was tired of running outside to the big gas grill while trying to do the inside cooking as well. I can grill in the winter now, too. It was entirely smokeless because of the water tray under the grill. I wish I had bought one of these sooner. The cord is a decent length, not like the really short ones, so you can move it away from the wall a little. There are just two of us so there is more than enough room for our needs, and plenty of room for more.

I put in a lot of time and research reviewing electric grills and decided on the Elite Gourmet EMG-980B Smokeless Electric Tabletop Grill - and so glad I did! I want that grill look and taste that you don't get from the frying pan or stove and reviewed grills from $30 to $200+. Price wasn't as much of an issue but I definitely wanted the value. Why pay too much when it seems an electric grill basically works the same way...it heats up on a grill plate. But don't get me wrong...this is my food we are talking about and I'm willing to pay a higher price for a higher grade of quality. I came across the Elite Gourmet 14-inch smokeless electric grill (EMG-980B) and compared to numerous brands and models - and this is why I chose Elite Gourmet: The Price: The price wasn't my biggest consideration but even when reviewing high-end grills at much higher costs, the EMG-980B still came out on top. Quite honestly, you cannot beat this unbelievable value. Electric Power/Watts/Temperature: This model works at 1300 watts and 450 degrees where the vast majority seem to be at 1000 watts. This assures me the true temperature reaches the level it needs to be at regardless of what it says on the dial. Watts matter. The Cover: The most simplest thing matters the most for an electric grill - and that is the lid (cover). Many electric grills do not have one and it is essential when using your electric grill to distribute the heat when cooking. Take it off near the end for the full grill look and taste. Grill Quality of the Plate: In reading so many reviews of various products, one of the chief complaints was the grill did not distribute heat evenly or reach the stated temperature. This grill plate cooks evenly throughout the plate. Even better is that the grill plate heats up immediately - there is literally no wait time. Pretty impressive. Plate Type: Most models had flat grills where this model has ridges. To be honest, I thought I would have preferred the flat grill but after cooking meat skewers and steaks, I see why the ridges are absolutely better - it allows the grease to separate and go to the outer ring and drip pan. Also, it leaves grill marks on your steak which looks like you actually cooked it on the outdoor BBQ grill. Plate Size: Elite Gourmet has three sizes (11-inch, 12-inch and 14-inch). I ordered the 14-inch plate thinking maybe I should have went with the 12-inch - but glad I went with the 14-inch as it is perfect when cooking a couple steaks and/or adding various veggies around the plate. I'm glad I didn't order the 12-inch. The 14-inch is just right. And for some odd reason, the 14-inch was less money than the 12-inch - so scored even better on that one! Non-Stick and Easy to Clean: The marketing states this grill is non-stick and easy to clean. My first use was cooking BBQ pork skewers and sure enough, the plate is nonstick and easy to clean as advertised. I simply wiped down the plate to remove the BBQ sauce char (and garlic) with ease. It made it quick and easy to use the grill right away for my veggies. A+ Smokeless Grill Just about every electric grill claims theirs is smokeless - but it basically is just a form of marketing magic. Now when you cook with the lid/cover on, it is essentially smokeless (until you remove the lid). However, it is pretty unrealistic to expect any type of cooking device to be "smokeless" as it is a matter of physics. Unless there is some sort of air induction feature, this is basically the same for all types of models. Value: I challenge anyone to find a better electric grill than this one based on the quality alone but take into consideration the price point, you simply cannot beat the overall value. There is a reason the Elite Gourmet Electric Grill is an Amazon Choice product.

Easy clean up! I love this new edition to my kitchen! Great for burgers, any type of meat and veggies

This was/is my last try at an indoor electric grill! I’m totally SOLD and will buy more for gifts because I want to share the ease of indoor grilling with family and friends. I’m posting pics so you can SEE the things I had questions about before ordering. My big complaint with indoor grilling was always the huge mess to clean up. Spatter everywhere and the wire rack never seemed to get cleaned right the first time and then the drippings were the biggest problem! I’d line the base under the heating element with foil and then have to wait AFTER messy grilling for it to thicken so I could remove the grease and fold the foil to throw it in the trash. I grilled less and less for those reasons. Let’s not forget...outdoor grills do have a lid and that’s what I missed with my 3 other grills...no top! Fast forward...I saw this grill, as a last ditch effort to being able to cook healthier for myself I decided to buy it after much thought and weighed my options of price, size and actually at first the Lid was the selling point at first sight and then I saw this all comes completely apart! Yes, the actual cooking surface lifts out of the sturdy, hard base. Also...in the base is a drip cup that slides in and out like a tiny drawer so you can pour the grease into a plastic/paper cup or even a thicker baggie and you seal it and throw it away. WHAT? Could it be that simple? YES! This item is the closest thing to smokeless that I’ve ever had. Very little smoke...you can really control any smoke if there is any, with the TEMPERATURE CONTROL and or the Lid. Temperature control....what a nice plus, seriously folks...only one of my three other expensive grills had that but I hated the grilling and the mess. I must say that clean up is/was so easy! I lifted the non-stick grilling surface out of the base, wiped any grease left off of it with a paper towel and then washed it with soapy warm water, dried it and set it back in it’s base and did the same with the lid, soapy warm water, rinse, dry and put it back on the grill. Oh, one more thing...the controls fit nicely inside with no cord sticking out or hanging. I did not miss having a grill rack at all and I still got Grill Marks on my Steaks! LOL Check out my pictures, they might answer any questions about the grill that might get answered for you. On yeah, I ordered the 14” grill and I worried it wouldn’t be big enough but as you can see? It’s plenty big enough. I had Two Fillets on it in the picture and could of had several, later I added sliced potatoes and added sliced veggies to grill which I did not take a pic of, sorry! This could cook at least six large burgers or two big sirloins at once. If you have a large family? Order according to the size cooking surface you think might work for you...better a little more than you need than not enough. My only complaint was with the delivery, the out side box it was packaged in was destroyed! The actual box the grill is in didn’t even have a scratch and was very well protected!! No Complaints about this grill at all. Happy, healthier cooking everyone. Cheers! 🥂 🙂 Are you still reading? 🍔🥩 You better order yourself one of these grills now before they are gone! ♥️ Love My New Grill! UPDATE JAN. 16,2019 Still lovin’ my Grill! Eating healthier because all meat, chicken, fish and vegetables are cooked on this grill. Eating healthier has caused me to lose weight! I can’t believe it myself lol. But I know it’s because I’m not eating anything fried or having food cooked that sits in oil, grease or fats. I’m glad I chose the 14” round grill. It’s perfect for cooking complete meals for TWO...from the meat, veggies and even potato slices or wedges. IF you are just cooking meat chicken or fish for the family? The 14” will serve you well but if youHAVE A FAMILY OF FOUR or more and want to just get it done all in one cooking? I’d go a little larger. You won’t be disappointed. Clean up is EASY PEASY!

UPDATE - The handle issue from my original review was user error. There was an additional collar piece that went under the handle that I hadn't seen yet in the box. Once I put that in place, everything fir perfectly. With that fixed, I decided it was worth giving the grill a fair shot. We did some KBBQ on it and it went great. The grill plate gets hot very quickly, which is really nice. Didn't have to wait long to start cooking. I am not convinced that the temperatures marked are correct (my reason for giving 4 stars instead of 5), but we found that at the top setting, the temperature was just right to cook thinly sliced meat so that it wasn't cooking too fast or too slow. The size of the grill was spacious for 2 of us to use and could probably accommodate 4 people's worth, though it would start feeling a little snug. Clean up couldn't have been easier. Had the whole thing hand cleaned in like 3 minutes as the leftover oil and food bits just slid right off the non-stick surface. No appreciable smoke while we were cooking. There was a little grease spatter on the table around the grill, but that's to be expected. Overall, I recommend it if your purpose is KBBQ, though I think it could be a bit underpowered for cooking thick steaks or something like that. Certainly for the money it's a good value. The grilling plate is almost concerningly light. I question how well it will hold up over time. I'm also concerned that the nonstick coating looks like the cheap kind that comes off very easily and that the base seems to be very thin cheap plastic. The last straw - I tried to attach the handle to the lid with the supplied bolt, but the bolt is at least 50% longer than it should be, so the result is that that handle just sort of hangs off the lid. I had really high hopes about this being a great indoor grill for KBBQ, but I have to say that my first impression is bad enough that I will likely send this thing back.

Muy bueno y duradero. Cocina muy bien las cosas.

To me what makes a grill perfect are four essential aspects: heat, size, a cover, and ease of cleaning. Especially for the latter, I always felt lied to when told those non-detachable grills were "easy-to-clean", and often wondered why manufacturers didn't make grills that could be disassembled for cleanup. Well, this grill does just that: you can easily take it apart completely and wash all of the individual components in the sink or in the dishwasher. Its size is great for grilling all your meats in one go (if I had to guess, the diameter is about 50cm). I only used it once, but it heated quickly and I was able to prepare boneless chicken thighs in about 15 minutes. There was very little smoke and spill when cooking, thanks in large part to the lid, and the end result was satisfactory to my liking. My only qualm is the length of the power cord: the reason is mentioned in the manual (to avoid tripping, if I recall correctly), but it feels like such a BS motive. I'm lucky the outlet is close to the stovetop so I can place the grill under the exhaust hood, but the manufacturer could have spared an extra foot of cord and made this a perfect product.

Wow 👏 am in love with this piece of machine it arrived this morning and im already dancing/ cooking with it im on a diet and so I can't use any form of oils and this little machine is so good for that juat place your meat or veggies on and boom 💥 it's done to perfection heats up in seconds and the temp control is nice very east to pull apart and wash. I would recommend anyone who wants privacy to grill indoor and in the winter time.

El sabor de la comida es muy bueno con y sin aceite; probé con algunos filetes de salmon y verduras y es fenomenal. Casi tan bueno como una parrilla de carbón. Además la superficie en donde se coloca no recibe el calor de la parrilla. Todo se desmonta y es fácil limpiarla. El recubrimiento de la parrilla se ve un poco delicado; definitivamente hay que elegir una esponja suave para lavarlo.
