#grill #recipe #food
At least everyone was honest. i would've been disappointed if you guys lied about this tasting like a grilled steak for advertiser promos.
There is no such thing as honesty in paid advertisement
You have been fooled
@@user-yc2uq2tk8j How so? It's honest advertisement if you're honest about the product.
I disagree with the other replies, a lot of companies will pay you just to test it because either way they get traction
they have definitely made some pretty dishonest reviews before, like that cringe 5 billion dollar "sous vis" replacement machine video.
An electric grill can't be a replacement for a real charcoal grill, but when open fire isn't allowed or there is only a balcony, this grill can be a solid option.
Yep, it really just boils down to smoke and fire. Charcoal, pellet grills, and open fire provide both. Propane provides fire, but not smoke (unless using ceramic briquettes that catch and burn off fat drippings, but this style of grill barely exists these days). Electric provides neither.
@@AngryAlfonse I have an electric. There is a drawer for pellets to add smoke flavor. I think gugas does too but he forgot that step.
👍everything has its place
Absolutely agree, with a condo and townhouse you can't have fire on the decks. This looks like a great replacement.
I used to have an electric grill. You can fold aluminum foil into an envelope to enclose wood chips in, seal it, then poke holes in it. The wood will smoke without igniting.
So bottom line, it’s crap on steak, sear is below average and guga knew it which is why all the meat was masked with multiple sauces
that's approximately my thoughts,
I've done steak in my sandwich press. Doesn't come close to my smokin hot cast iron skillet 😂
Yeah.. I don't know where I stand on this one. I trust Guga completely when it comes to recipes and whatnot... but product reviews are something else entirely. The fact that this thing cooked pretty damn unevenly was touched on, but I feel like it wasn't called out enough.
Like.. if you're not able to have an open flame on a balcony or something.. you could always use a portable induction cooktop and cast iron...
It felt like a commercial from the start. The guys saved it with their honest opinion of the taste. It all looked good.
I'll be real, if I'm gonna grill, I'm using charcoal. Electric is good for inside use, but that's it.
Well...that's what it's for. Inside
Well I just wish the cooking surfaces were interchangeable to flat tops without grill bar thingy
Ease of access too, most people simply dont grill meats or other stuff at all so it's better for them to buy a cheap or medium priced electric grill and give it a try instead of going deep-end on charcoal&such.
Sure the end result is inferior but it's better to have an inferior end result on your plate than no end result at all because you got bored of the hassle of setting up your charcoal/gas grill etc which sadly is a case with many, they buy top-end gear only to use it a few times and then it just collects dust and rust because it's a hassle.
@@sordos1 Anyone with a house I recommend getting a propane grill. You can get one with 3 burners for $95 from Walmart. I always keep propane for my grill as my emergency backup cooking method since I have an electric stove/oven. Sure, I don't grill but 4 or so times a year, but the peace of mind knowing I can cook if the power goes out for an extended period of time leaves me more relaxed.
@@matthewjbauer1990Gas grills have the unfortunate side-effect of being "too scary" for most people to use, like they really think it's like in the movies where one tiny bumb means *KABOOOM*.
My mom is one such case which is why we never did anything more than some crappy sausages during summers while sauna-ing but now with electric, chicken, burgers, those same old crappy sausages but also many many more sure it's far cry from great but atleast were doing something and she's not sh*tting her skirt from worry that the grill will explode on us.
Crazy? yeah but that's the mindset many older folks in particular have.
If i ever manage to get an actual house of my own not a sh*tty rental apartment i'l get coal and grill it the f*ck up every summer but that's in the future
No charcoal flavor is a deal breaker for me.
DRY AGE STEAK IN OYSTER SAUCE

PLEASE!
Please, Guga, don't jump aboard the Shopping Network train. I've loved your channel for years for its joy of food and integrity exploring such. This was interesting to compare, but too many favorable outcomes may lead to skeptical viewers taking a step back.
Not a fan of paid ad's because they create bias but wow you guys showed your integrity by being completely honest. Love you guys.
Dude that is wild, I literally made the skirt dish for my family yesterday without knowing about this video. Literally the same thing, sauce and everything. I feel like I am vindicated and I have happily used my knowledge from this channel successfully. Thanks Guga!
Yeah, nailed it. You can cook meat on a stovetop griddle too but one of the main benefits of charcoal grilling is the flavor. If they incorporated some sort of charcoal smoke/essence for use on a balcony or something that would certainly help.
I saw immediately that the steak wasn't cooked evenly. Thank you for giving an honest review!
1:43 - "shoeshine wine" 😂
Never change, Guga....and give your editor a raise.
So he's selling out and your response is never change?
@@No-One.321 How is he "selling out"?
@@numberyellow it's a straight up infomercial with no comparisons or anything. What else do you call that?
@@No-One.321 Um, testing a product?
And i wasn't even talking about that....my comment was about the ingredient list on screen... dude, wtf
@@No-One.321 Feel free to leave then
1:22 that is the best fusion of Middle Eastern, Indian and Mexican flavours I've erver seen. Great job Guga.
Leo's stare into the camera after saying "the thiccest taco I've ever had" lmao man knew what he was doing
If I was a cannibal Guga would be at the top of my list 😂
NOTHING beats the flavor that cooking over wood provides.
The fact that it resulted in an uneven cook is the immediate dealbreaker for me. I personally like electric equipment, I like the ease of use and the typically smaller component size, easier cleanup etc. But an -electric- grill resulting in an uneven cook just screams "shitty product" to me. Thats one of the major bonuses to electric cooktops, a more even heating area.
Edit: Looking again at the grill, I get the idea that some "genius" decided that grill marks are more important than making a good product, and made that pattern on the grill of raised vs lowered areas. I am in the camp that grill marks are just burnt food, and I think the 'artificial' grill marks are what results in the uneven cooking.
grill for $600.00 no way
Honestly alot less than I figured it would be 🤣😂
bro have you seen hestan or kalamazoo 🤣
@@jamess.2491Hestan is my dream grill, luckily for me they don’t sell them in Europe otherwise I’d be poorer and divorced.
@@MasterChief37 Yeah it's pretty awesome, got a builtin 42 last year when I did my outdoor kitchen. Was going to go for the Kalamazoo but I didn't think it was worth double the Hestan.
@@jamess.2491 I’ve watched the Embers Kalamazoo reviews, despite the enthusiasm I’m not impressed.
This is the first video where I came uncomfortably close to saying "Guga's fame has made him a sell out." I never want to even think that. However, there wasn't a control at all. This wasn't an "experiment" so much as it was a 10-minute long commercial. Had he done just steaks or chicken the same way, with one control from an actual charcoal grill, I would've felt better. For me, what bothered me the most is how Guga never gave negative commentary while cooking. He didn't say how bad it was sticking when cooking, how the grill grates were charring the food, or anything he'd normally say in one of his normal videos...especially when commenting on someone else's cooking in his reaction videos talking about grill marks and temperature control. Ironically, the night before I saw rhis video, I saw an ad for this grill. I thought I'd see if I could adapt it for maybe cooking while outdoors on my tailgate since it is ultimately a 24-inch alteration of a George Foreman grill to have an actual cover rather than being a glorified panini press. You can pick up Foreman grills for $40 any day of the week. When I saw the price for this monstrosity, I was like "NOPE!" I am not spending over $600 for a fake grill where the food is always sticking and there isn't any grilled flavor other than the char marks from the faux grill's grating pattern. I hope this was a "one off" and Guga never does an episode like this again. Otherwise; Guga should change his last name to Popeil.
He does this all the time, bro is far past selling out.
Funny, my mind went immediately to a Foremen grill as well.
Granted, it's smaller but it's much more portable (I've used it in a park plugged into my car) and it's so much cheaper.
And agreed, I was expecting a charcoal control group.
I am absolutely done with Guga Now. The channel has changed so much from what it was, now we have to sit through complete infomercials hear it not worth it anymore
if you actually enjoy his content then you wouldnt care about a small sponsored video
@@FluffingBored eeeeeeeexxxxxxxaaaacccccttttttlllllyyyyyyyy . Also this could be the company who is manufacturing his walmart products an you scratch my back i scratch yours kinda deal we give you a cheat price on your products you do a video for us
It's good and practical for grilling without smoke and work. You miss the charcoal and wood taste in the meat but you gain in practicity and precision. Have both.
You can use charcoal powder as seasoning and cold smoke the end result. :)
That chicken recipe is an Arabic chicken dish specifically from Palestine and it’s called Musakan as I remember
And I agree, it’s a phenomenal dish
✊✌️🇵🇸
Well, this is the dumbed down version of musakhan. There is no way it tastes like the real think and sure as heck doesn't look like it.
@@Aymenadhami
I agree
It’s just a dish that inspired by Musakan
You’re reviewing honestly a product that you’re being paid to sell? Hm 🤔
Ive always loved Guga content, but his choice in advertising is questionable
That's how you become a fanboy
if you watched the video you would see they were pretty honest about it not being that good for steak or charcoal flavor
@@ConkersSquirrel still a ridiculous conflict with no outright disclosure, but justify however you like!
@@JSVintage yo man we all gotta make a living out here
Guga never to proud to do an infomercial for a George Foreman knock off. Gotta make that bank!
@@Complex_Addition Here, you dropped this. ,
@@Complex_Addition lol ok. Are you that insecure that you are correcting grammar on CZcams?
@@Complex_Addition Imagine being this thick.
@@JNM15 It do be pretty sad don't it
Given how many zeros were likely on that check.. I don't blame him. At least there were a few good looking recipes out of it. 🤷♂
My man Guga making money here
He's (they're) being honest about the review so I think it's more than acceptable. There will still be people who will like this product, certainly not for me however.
I like how honest you guys are despite it being a sponsored video.
I love how you sped up the sponsorship advert😂😂😂, also you've lost weight nice work!
For all that, get a portable/table top wood pellet grill
I'm quite interested in how Guga films this but then especially how he SERVES this to the guys, all dishes at the same time. Like everything needs to be prepped so perfectly, but he clearly cooked these dishes at different times.. So does he keep it warm and then prepare the actual dishes at the last time? But then how does he film it? It all seems so seemless it's crazy.
I'd like to know as well but he has mentioned a few times that the food came out of a warmer. I assume they make the dishes and then keep them all in the warmer until it's time to test them. I can't imagine that is really good for the food though. Also, Guga definitely doesn't still do all of the cooking himself.
Sponsored AND HONEST! Well done Guga and team! Thank you!
I'm not in the market for such a grill but GREAT recipes @Guga! 🔥
A nice appliance for those without a garden or a space outside to grill. I could imagine these in dorm rooms everywhere
I was hoping for a review in terma of "the chicken was sticking", "it's a mess to clean", "no difference vs a pan"
i like the way its a commercial blended in with a good video and the fact theyre beeing honest
Yeah, he's had some product reviews in the past that were super sus... this one, it at least sounded like it was somewhat truthful. "It's not great, but if you're in an apartment and have literally no other option, it works well enough".
I enjoy an honest, and entertaining, review.
Seriously honest review. Incredibly useful and may actually help sell the grill. Wonder if the company hated it.
Guga!! Look into TEC Grill. It's infrared - gets up to 1000F on the surface. You can grill a 1.75" thick strip steak to medium rare in 6 minutes! Your audience would be amazed!
I not started the video yet. But the header tells me that you are a brave man who likes to suffer. But lets see. I wish you all the best!
You should be able to swap out the griddle surface for a cast iron flat surface and have the ability to really crank up the wattage so it sears well, then I'd be interested.
Very interestting idea mate that would work really well for sure
If you still have CB Radios mate you can usually find me on 27.195
Guga always aces the plating eye test...wow!
my lazy way of cooking chicken is a thawed out breast with a slit half way through it seasoned up and sauce if you want, wrap it in tin foil bake in oven for an hour at 400 degrees. you can put a nice crust on the grill after or with a torch if you want.
I want more fish grilling/cooking videos please where you show Miami and how versatile the ocean life is there❤
I love my Weber with all my accessories! No electric grill for me.
That chicken recipe has me intrigued though Guga. Looked Great!
Maybe guga could have used a little liquid smoke to simulate the charcoal taste, but I knew right away the guys were going to point that out. I will say one thing I don't like about most grills is the temp changing, so having an electric grill that can always maintain a certain temp is nice.
I don't know if you've already done this but I'd love to see you make a traditional Irish dish like "coddle" with perhaps a Brazilian twist???
This is nice because right now, at peak camping season in Oregon, there are fire bans and this just makes it easy - I'd rather carry a power bank than wood or charcoal anyway :-)
Guga i am so much proud of you saying baharat thanks a lot
I would recommend testing the steak out again, this time adding a little liquid smoke to the marinade, to see if that gives the needed charcoal flavor.
I want to see you do a video using liquid smoke. I personally hate it because so many people use it wrong but it would be interesting to see if you could use it in like sous vide, compound butter, dry age etc. also how to properly use it.
Which is better for lighting charcoal, torch or something else. Which torch and spray bottle do you use.
that was the most honest ad yet
I have two big concerns about that thing. First is the durability of the heating element. Like it seems like it'd be great in some microclimates where its always sunny but you get up to the PNW where it rains more regularly and you wouldn't be able to keep it outside and if you were in a more desert climate how thuroughly would you have to take it apart and clean it every time some sand got in it. Like there are a few hundred different microclimates in the US that are not the bay area of california that I'd be pretty suspect about keeping it.
Second concern is just out easy it would be to pick up and walk off with it. Huge plus if you like travelling with it, not a great situation if you live in a neighborhood where you can't keep bikes outside.
I have 4 types of grills(Propane, Charcoal, Electric and Natural Gas) and use them differently. My electric one I mostly use for Corn, I can just leave them on there on low and not worry about them.
im happy with the honesty i was a littlle worries not seeing any comparisons since it claims to be able to replace charcoal im glad even without it that yall made it clear it does not. this looks like a fantastic hybrid though of a stove top and an oven. honestly i think this type of design would be fantastic to replace the traditional stove top and oven and replace oven space with just more storage. i think as a grill it misses the mark same with propane not ewnough difference from just stove-top cooking
“Shoeshine” wine gave me quick the chuckle
1:27 supposed to be in pita bread not naan. That was an Arab dish called msakhana
I'm surprised you didn't do a Guga steak vs sous vide steak vs a electric Guga steak.
Can the grill do indirect cooking?
Could smoked salt or liquid smoke be the Konami cheat code to the holy charcoal flavor for that electric heresy my dear Guga?
That's an excellent suggestion for a revisit.
You did not mention one important thing, how easy was it to clean betweeen uses??? Charcoal you just scrape and wash the frill itself and dymp the ash, hit it with a hose and it is ready for the next cook. How was the grill cleanup?
Make a compilation video with all your side dishes
Wow... a 10min long commercial. Thanks Guga!
Can you just add a couple of charcoals to the wires for the charcoal flavor
Guga just learned the word phenomenal
I would have liked to seen a basic seasoning with a charcoal version and the electric version to see what you guys chose.
Charcoal will never be replaced
Everytime i see someone cooking pork belly. It just reminds me of xmas.
Honesty is the best policy.
Guga! Please do grilled chicken thighs, a guga burger and a guga steak and test each one with alabama white bbq sauce!!! Do yourself a favor!
What is the lowest temp the grill can hold? I had an electric bbq smoker years ago that worked really well on ribs. Did I get all the smokey goodness of real wood? No. But it was really easy to use and perfectly consistent each time.
I am so glad you didn't sell out with your review. If a company states that it will replace a charcoal grill you should test that! Now if they said it was a replacement for propane that would be a better comparison and claim for them.
I'll be giving that chicken marinade a try. To complete the review you should show how easy or hard it is to clean.
Really love you get an honest opinion
Hey Guga. What's the circular grill you use that you can spin it around? I need a new grill and that looks perfect
Good tossing, Fuyioh!
I have replaced skirt and flank with Flap Steak. It is still seems to be cheap and I think it has the flavor or skirt but is much more tender.
Even if it's a product plug, you guys kept it 100 and I appreciate that. This is why Guga is one of my most trusted CZcamsrs!
P.S. I bought your burger smashing kit the other day and I LOVE it!
Check out first we feast, making the perfect smash burger. I love guga- but you don’t need the wax paper.
Plop the meat ball down into the hot pan- tap it just a tiny bit to get a *little tiny* bit of cook on the underside of the ball.
Flip immediately.
The cooked beef won’t stick to your smasher.
Probably the best little technique I’ve seen- 😉👌
@@KING_PHILLIP That's the same technique I use. Big thanks to George Motz for showing us the ropes!
Guga I like Funyuns once I start eating them I can’t stop but it’s mostly what they put on it is what’s so good! Can you please create something or even make homemade Funyuns. Or Funyun dust. They are so expensive around here thank you ❤ the videos
i got a kamado barbecue at home thats the best thing to cook with and it depends on the kind of charcoal we use for me its that smoking kick that charcoal gives thats why i prefer it 😁
The problem with electric grills isn’t how it cooks the food. It’s that there is less flavor because you don’t get the smoky charcoal taste.
Bruh this grill would have been a banger if it used wood chips to help add a smokey flavor , im def not interested in a out door toaster oven lol
I saw nick,max and other food gurus, guga your'e the real steak guy
Heat is heat: it's basically all the same thing. The difference is in whether the heat adds anything to the cooked item. Some fuels can impart extra flavors to the food, such as charcoal or wood or a clay-wrapped leaf, but propane and electric do not add much if anything. So the chicken was probably preferred because it was marinated (so it took on the marinade's extra flavor), and the pork and steak were not.
Like the idea of electric and simplicity it brings BUT someone has to create one that somehow either gives you the charcoal flavor or has some compartment that you can add charcoal and it’s somehow lit by an electric lighter.
Love the use of Sumac. Such an interesting spice. But, Guga, Now I recommend you use Labneh.
If you grill outside, used charcoal grill. Electric one is like pan frying
I do not have an issue with Guga doing a sponsorship but he should tell everyone this is an AD.
I was surprised when he did the steak 2nd cuz he usually leaves it till last, but then when I saw everyone's reaction I was like "He Knew"
Thanks Guga!
You should add some Colgin liquid smoke to add a bit of smokiness.
Right now, I want to invent and electric wood smoker that can accompany this!!
Whats your favorite tastewise alternative to Cilantro? I've tried to eat it lots of times, but to me it makes everything taste like soap.
You forgot to show the cleaning ..... 😞 this Ep feels like 100% a commercial... We all know Guga could cook a meal on a Wawa trash can lid and it be prefect
in the chicken part, you set the grill to 325 but the video clearly shows the temperature was 572
I don't think I will be buying an electric grill anytime soon, but those were some great looking recipes.
Love you Guga! But… you gotta double up on the corn tortilla. Food looks amazing. Same with the grill
Wonder if you could place some wood chips in water next to the food while its cooking. Would the chips impart some smokiness to the food(s) ???
Hi guga, please recreate your truffle pasta that you shared with angle a while back.
What about the clean up? Is it easy to clean after grilling?
Hey Guga I think this comparison would be better if you Cooked Noth ways (in a coal grill and that new grill)...
Guga you rock ....
