THIS IS A very gentle method of cooking over coals, and produces a fantastic smokey flavor. Also, the lovely radiant heat from the coals enables protein based skewers to have a crispy, smokey exterior while preserving a tender product. The grill itself is a fine stainless mesh, which lends itself to delicate skewers being grilled, unlike thicker bar grills which are heavier duty. However, Yakitori grilling is also great for steaks, prawns and fish, and with the addition of vine clippings, red wood or hickory wood chips, grilled meats go to the next level.
Traditionally, the Japanese cook chicken on this grill, and there are Yakitori bars in Japan where the chef prepares all cuts of chicken and cooks right in front of you.
This grill can handle way more than chicken. Imagination is the only limit when it comes to composing a menu for the Yakitori grill. Anything that can be skewered is possible, and there is no crockery or cutlery involved when you throw an event with this theatrical new method of catering.
