Last night I got to try out the new STOK Stainless Grilling Basket.
I can't understand why 99% of veggie grilling trays or baskets have most of the area unexposed to the undersides, most have round holes but don't allow the veggies to have the maximum amount of exposure to the smoke and or/heat.
I found a thin wire mesh basket for the gas grill and it works well but this stainless one is really well built. It just feels extremely solid.
After getting done seasoning and letting the steak tips get to room temp and preparing the Atomic Buffalo Turds it was time to try out our new grill accessory.
Then used the STOK Insert Removal Tool to take out the cast iron center insert and replace it with the Stainless Grilling Basket.
Took it out a couple of times and gave it a good wrist flip to rotate the veggies from the bottom of the unit to the top and it worked out flawlessly. It stayed securely together and the veggies came out just the way I like them, onions translucent and the peppers with a slight char to them. Opening it up by sliding the clasp back and used the tongs to flip the top section back.If I wanted less char I would have pushed my coals to the edges of the bottom of the grill and cooked using indirect heat but for the way I like my veggies this was perfect.
For the video review-
