Hibachi Grills – The Hibachi Explained
By Lewis Theakston
It is worth noting that not all
Hibachi grills are equal, and if
flexibility is something you are looking for in this style of BBQ grill, then look for models that incorporate
vents in them, which allow for fine adjustment of air intake which will allow you to have greater control over
the cooking temperature. It will take some time to get used to using these vents as you cook, and this is all
part of the great Hibachi cooking experience.
Cooking on a Hibachi BBQ grill is almost identical to any other charcoal grill, apart from the
fact that the grill has the capability to have two different temperature zones, while this is an advantage
the Hibachi is really only suited to cooking smaller cuts of meat, such as chicken pieces, wings, burgers,
and kebabs.
When using the
Hibachi, remember that cast-iron
versions retain heat very well, so always operate the grill, having a good pair of heat-resistant oven mitts
to hand. Also ensure that the Hibachi is placed on a strong steady surface that is level such as a stone or
wooden floor, and always have a bucket of water or sand, or better yet, a small fire extinguisher close
by.
The
Hibachi is unique in many ways
and will appeal to many people for a variety of reasons. One of the finest things about the Hibachi is the way
that it is capable of cooking food just as well as many good quality grills that cost several hundred
dollarsas well as being an attractive focal point where ever it is used.
