Grill Maintenance, Cooking Techniques, and Recipes Grill Maintenance Regular cleaning and care for your Evo flat-top cooking surface will keep your grill looking and functioning it’s best. The cook surface is coated with a nickel finish that will not melt, stick to food, burn, crack, chip off or absorb odors. It is designed to be ‘seasoned’ with a fine layer of vegetable or cooking oil on its surface. This oil further helps to prevent sticking and makes cooking easier.
Cooking Meats Meats are perfect to sear, roast or braise on the grill. Searing and Roasting techniques are described in more detail below. Braising requires a tightly covered pot or pan placed on the grill surface. Braise as you would for a stove-top braising recipe, adjusting the burners to control the cook surface temperature. Meats can also be sliced and put on skewers, added to a stir-fry or used in hot sandwiches. Veal and Pork are often made into cutlets or scallopini.
Smoking By placing wood chips such as alder, mesquite or apple wood directly on Evo’s hot cook surface and covering the surface with Evo’s hood, you can quickly convert your Evo grill into a smoker. Depending on the size of the wood chips, you may want to use the method of placing the chips into a metal container such as folded aluminum foil. At a minimum, make sure the heat zone that comes in contact with the wood chips is hot enough to get the chips smoking.
