I had the chance to put NOMAD Grills to the test with a few different cooks and tests and you need to see the results.
Of course the first thing on the grill was the South Texas carne asada spread, consisting of MIANONNA Italian sausage, fajitas and chicken halves.
Then we ran another test with another one of our favorite meals - ribeyes, new york strips, grilled potato skewers and corn on the cob.
To be honest, I was super impressed with this grill. Check out my full thoughts in this video. Boom! - Zábava
best purchase I made for grilling 2 years ago. It’s great for tailgates, the ranch, the beach, and especially if you live in an apartment that doesn’t allow grills to be left on the balcony. Plenty of cheap alternatives but no complaints on it since purchased.
Arnie I love you man but $650 is way too much, I'll suffer some inconvenience to transport my $80 grill if I need it that bad. It's in the skill not the grill.
80? Man 50 for a portable. Lol😂
50? More like 25 here buddy Walmart special
I thought to myself this is really cool “searches on google” $650 😮 Might as well buy a full size grill with all the best features. Portability seems to be the only highlight here a $20 grill can do the same.
Facts
No one said it was for poor people 😂
Geez I only had to watch eight CZcams reviews to find one that was actually helpful. Thanks for letting us know how it was to cook, how it was to clean, the pros and cons, etc. Nice review
Awesome review brother! Love your presentation style.
Thank you for an excellent review.
Awesome review Sir. Thank you. Subscribed.
Love your channel. Love doing a lot of your recipes and making sauces for the meat. An the floppy flip works out great lol
It's 650.00 bucks!!!!
Very NICE! I can use that anywhere especially SPI days. Thanks for your education on it. 956!
If you were educated you would know $650 for a “Charcoal Grill” is Nonsense. And nobody bothers to think about the cleaning process. If you’re out in the woods you can’t just dump Hot Coals out on the grass or in the bushes. It would be a crime.
Looks like something we should try out down here at the beach!
Best moustache on CZcams. You're the man, Arnie!
thanks for another great video!
These grills are so much fun, I’m now just using it in my backyard cause there’s just two of us/. So much fun!
Thanks looks like a great product 😊love the honey comb grill design
So i searched for the nomad and turns out my favorite tex mex youtuber did a review. Thanks arnie! Ill be fabricating my own version based on it.
I absolutely love your videos!!!!!. very informational!!..thank you kind sir.
Not since the Mangrate have I been this excited about bbq!
Man I need one of those thanks for the video
Con Madre Arnie 🔥
It’s amazing! I put it in the back of my limousine and tailgate at the opera
Awesome grill. After I make a couple of modifications it will be perfect. 👍
All season feeders has a nice portable one I’ve had it for 4 years now and still grill I do like the nomad and the review I will be get one soon with the extra grill awesome stuff
nice love my weber grill tho
You should have an Arnie Asada shirt made!
How hard is it to add more charcoal if needed while food is on the grill ?
Would a rack of ribs work on the nomad with splitting them?
Arnie, where do you wash this grill? Outside with a hose?
I saw them at Zavala’s BBQ and I’m obsessed with them now. I hope to get one in the future for traveling.
This guy knows what he's talking about. Especially the smoke in your face part.
Great 👍 Review
Looks the business mate 👍
Cool grill
Definitely adding this to my camping section in the shed, probably use it the backyard first to get the feel for it.
Yup, good products ain't cheap, cheap products ain't good.
Does it leave burns on table tops?
HEY, HEY, HEY, HEYYYYYY!!! SMOKE MEAT EVERYDAY!!
Chingon esse!! 505 approves!!
A pretty cool looking portable grill. If you do want quality, you will have to pay for it. Cheers, Arnie! ✌️
Right on @dwayne, some of these guys are missing the whole point. Its a good quality, durable and light grill, designed to be a portable fun grill no t he end all be all grill for everything, thanks
@@ArnieTex Very true. Cheers, Arnie!
Buying this is Dumb. I’m sorry but $650 is Insane for something I can do on a Webber Grill. And No It Is NOT THE PERFECT Grill. It is charcoal and everyone knows you can’t use a charcoal grill just anywhere. Some Campsites and Public parks don’t allow Charcoal Grills. And Perfect For Tail gating… NO.!! Because then where are you gonna dump the Hot Coals??? Not in a trash can cause you’ll start a fire. Not on the side of the road cause you’ll burn a forest. Not in the back of your truck and I don’t need to explain why..
@@JoeTaco83 You obviouslly dump the coals in a meat-prep tray you were gonna throw away anyway, or into a damp/wet ziplock after they've cooled down, like plenty of people are already doing or are required by local parks to do. It's really, REALLY, not hard. And being able to grill right on the bed or tailgate as necessary because of the heat dissipation is massively beneficial. Also, watch the vid, he literally said go dig a small hole and dump the coals in there if you're out and about without carrying access. Bruh
Only thing dumb here is your argument assuming everyone is as bad off in the head as you are, as you're inability to understand managing coals proves
Nice review, what do you think about the PK grill? Cost about the same.
PK has several models, I have the original one, solid solid great cooker. Only think i hate about it is the bottom vent holes drop lots of ash and lit coals, not good on wooden decks etc. so I keep a large roasting pan under mine when i use it. Not quiet as portable as the Nomad but now PK makes new and improved models and a table top model, PK is a great brand imo.
$650! C’mon Man!
Not a poor mans toy for sure....😂🤣
@@baldemargarcia6341 Not insinuation anything, just agreeing with pat, not everybody is gonna spend that kind of money and some cannot afford too, I'm still not rich either but I am blessed.
Had mine for awhile. Love it! Built like a tank and is going to last forever. Bigger charcoal is best if you don’t have their charcoal. I added a small grate for regular charcoal to maintain better airflow. Really worth the money especially if have gone through cheap portable grills.
Totally agree @Jessegarcia, great minds think alike, I was thinking the same about the grate for the charcoal.
I hate the grills you find at parks mainly because they are not set up for airflow under the coals, hence why I always would bring my own portable. Unless you are using large charcoal the Nomad had the same flaw if you use smaller normal size charcoal. Once it burns down, it fills the area inbetween those fins and you lose that airflow. The added grate helps that. I just took one from an old grill I had.
Their Charcoal is awesome, but it does take a lot of heat to get them going (their fire starters really help) but once they are going they will burn for a very long time. Problem for me in regards to Nomad charcoal and fire starters is that I live in Hawaii and shipping is insane.
I also got the second grate, but I’ve only used it once and even when I did, I really didn’t need to for cooking burgers and brats at the beach. Unless you are cooking for a large group, you don’t really need it.
When I first saw it, I was blown away by the price and put it out of my mind. Without ever mentioning it, my wife surprised me on my Birthday when they first came out since she saw a local Chef use one.
It has become my main charcoal grill cause it’s small and I don’t have to start a large fire to get a meal done. Easily packs up for the beach. When you are done, close vents, lock it up and that fire is dead.
This grill is the real deal. I really do feel it is the last portable grill you will purchase. I have easily spent over 650.00 in cheap portable grills over my lifetime.
@@jessegarcia6909 Well said amigo.
Made in where? Communist China?
Food and Wine Magazine agrees with you. And I love the Texas state flag waving in the background (even if I am a northerner).
¡En fuego! 🔥🍖🙏
Does anyone know the name of the grill in the back on the countertop?
Oops you covered cleaning just now👍
This is cool. I would love to see how well you can smoke in this. After seeing that people would have a better idea if its worth it to them or not, being more than just a grill.
I have one for a year now, I absolutely love my nomad grill 🫶
Do the magnets have anything around them to protect them from the heat? Magnets loose all their effect ovet 175f, so if not protected, they're kinda useless long term.
The are not exposed to direct heat but rather built into the moulding.
That shirt👍
Where Can I buy this grill? Couldn't find it on amazon.
nomadgrills.com/products/nomad-grill-smoker
Could use a portable keyboard/pc dust blower for cleaning the ashes out. Just an idea.
@fleasg yes it sure would work out on the trail or camping , I have a blower and an air compressor too at home but that dust would get on everything so I prefer the vac at home.
My weber jumbo joes .work...and look great 😂..one vintage and one newer model...40.00 for both....
Can you take that on board an airplane? 😢
That thing is pretty sweet I’m gonna have to pick one up
I'd love to get one of these. Our apartment complex owners took away our BBQ equipment and, being from the midwest, I felt like it hurt my faith as a bbq enthusiast. Most of us are here for school and we don't have a lot of money to do stuff like this. I would try and get one of these, if they weren't so expensive.
@@noname-zg8lh I feel like that would be a waste all in itself. I know you're joking but the reusability and the portability of this thing is definitely worth how much it costs, if you can afford it
Shout out @ArnieTex #Come On #Awesome Review of The Nomad Grill! #Keep The Smoke Light & Make It Work 👊🏼
Man, this thing probably costs 150$ to manufacture AT MOST….Too greedy for my blood. But to be fair, it’s on par with other premium portable grills like PK. Would like to see someone buck the trend with something affordable.
What's pk?
@@ThatKayakingGuy the PK Grills. They have the original, the 360, and the Aaron Franklin edition.
@@JK-uo2jv thanks I'll look it up
Do you have a cabrito recipe?
Season with APC-OG and cook over direct fire, low to medium heat, baste with butter or duck fat a couple times, enjoy.
I would much more prefer the pkgo with flip kit. Much lower price and comes with extra grates included to grill on both sides.
Would be a pain to clean the grill grate because of the shape
Well so... aluminum and Stainless are not magnetic? So not sure how that functions. And 650.00 is up there if you ask me. You can get a pretty decent stick burner for that price.
If you think you can get a "decent" stick burner for that you are delirious.lol. Maybe one of those paper thin big box store one that dont even work maybe yea.
You aren’t getting squat for $650. But among portable grills, it’s too much.
I think I'll stick to my $70 Americana grill from Walmart. I can smoke, grill and roll it around just fine.
🤣 Use what makes you happy yessir.
$650.00 😳
yup that's for HIGH ROLLERS not for the common man....
Cholos on the go..I guess if you go camping or at the beach.but idk if that thing can actually last for years..
It's aluminum lol, it will last longer than you and I for sure.
For650 that thing should fly
They cool but pricy
Bad to the bone! Im in the market to replace my old portable grill this is the one im buying
Spraying with water would be ok for cleaning? 😂
Akorn Chargriller Jr is the only competition for this grill. The Akorn can smoke, grill, make pizzas, anything you want. Plus lightweight and keeps the heat for hours with the insulation and half the price. You should try it out!
Now that is a cheapo wanna be Kamado. Does it work? Sure they all do.
Wanna be no doubt but easy to transport and won't break like the mini kamados with all that ceramic, works really well for camping and fishing 👍🏻😎
I really wish they would make a propane version that way we can use it year around while out camping.
Um it's made for year round. I am cooking in 19°f outside.
@@jessewilliamson421 you can't use anything except propane grills during fire restrictions at camp
If it were a real suitcase I just wish it had tires on it
It’s a nice grill……but most people can’t afford that or just have to many options in that price range.
And it is out of stock😒 on the site
$650 is highway robbery
Stainless steel isn’t magnetic
Took a look, but I'm not paying over $600 bucks for a tabletop grill. The price is ridiculous -- and the charcoal? $72 for 20 lbs. Nope. Overpriced fluff.
The Nomad is for wealthy people
This is like Yeti on steroids. $650?! And the cooking tools set is like $200. What a joke!
$650?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
it doesnt look very deep .. need be deeper , or adjustable ,,
or it could need a better cook too lol
For the price! NOPE!
Paid review for a $650 baby grill 🙄
It would be really nice in titanium
Nice work on the show and tell there ouch that was hot to me too when you touched that lid it happened to me once on a gas grill 😂👍👌✌️🫡🇺🇸
❤🤍💙 #awesome
$650 for a metal suitcase sheesh lol
