The bigger the grill, the better the food?Posted May 29th 2006 10:03AM by Heather CravenFiled under: Grilling, New Products, AmericaAs pointed out by Nicole, backyard barbecue grills are fast becoming more and more exotic. This trend, first started in 1995 with the introduction of the Dynamic Cooking Systems DCS Professional Grill. The 48-inch-wide cooking behemoth hit the market with a $5,000 price tag, it included H-shaped cast-iron commercial-quality burners, a heavy-duty side-burner and more B.T.U.'s per square inch than any other grill then available. Monster grills are similar to luxury sport cars in that the fancier, bigger and more gadget encrusted, the more impressive and popular. In the beginning of the luxury grill trend, it was the ultra-rich people who were purchasing them and spending anywhere up to $6,500, plus more for backyard renovations to showcase their grills. But in the past few years the luxury trend has filtered down to the more modest homes, where for $2,500 a machine with accessories like rotisseries, warmer drawers, side burners and hand lights can grace your backyard patio. These new grills have something to offer to just about everybody in the family. For the "have meat, must cook it" fellows these stoves are a dream come true. For the barbeque aficionado, the one who ponders which sauces will best compliment the mood of the day, the type of meat etc, this trend is a gift to his artistic cooking expression. And for those of us who just want to sit down and eat, the increased cooking power means the meal will be finished that much faster.
