@csr326 Год назад

Great video. Why did Lodge change the design. The realistic answer is because they made it cheaper to manufacture. There are only 3 pieces to be make, instead of 7 pieces with the old one (including the bail handle) I have this model but always use my lodge sportsman grill. Hopefully they bring back the LSG

@MrCastIron Год назад

Thank you! I’m gonna say you are right because it just makes financial sense to reduce the number of castings from 7 to 3. I wish they would have kept the bail handle, but the hooks work too! Thanks for sharing your experience and thoughts with us, my friend!!

My hibachi came with me from Japan. I use twigs and larger for fire. When the meat is done, and the fire's burned out, I simply remove the wooden handled grills and dump the ashes. The grill base also has wooden handles. SO! 1grill base and 2 adjustable height racks. Used this hibachi since 1964. A lot! If it ain't broke, don't fix it. BTW..hibachi is what it IS. 😊 The description became the brand name.

@vincewalburn4506 Год назад

Nice video! I just got the Pro Grill too. I've enjoyed the old style but these are some nice upgrades to the design. Easier to empty and the venting is better. Great point on watching how much charcoal you use; I've seen videos where people use too much and complain about how close the charcoal is to the cooking surface. It does save on the amount of charcaol you need to use. You got me to subscribe!

@MrCastIron Год назад

Thank you Vince!! I agree some things were needing a change but some things didn’t. I would like to see a better way to carry or move it around. The old style with a bail handle was cool but it wasn’t balanced. Other than that I’m happy with mine.

@grrrlbreaker 11 месяцев назад

I inherited my old Lodge decades ago, and the "improvements" aren't enough to get the the newer model.

@alexrawleigh3167 14 часов назад

I got the older version that doesn't have the ash tray but I love mine. Had it for about 8 years and it still looks brand new. What Indo with mine is I cut a piece of aluminum foil and place down inside the charcoal area and run it up about 3 inches on tbe sides. Mine does have a damper on it but it is a small plate that slides back and forth. Once I am done cooking and the coal die out I just fold the aluminum foil up and remove all the ashes. It's a little more effort but it makes removing the coals easier and it also prevents salty sauces and grease from contacting the surfaces. The sportsman grill isn't really meant to cook large pieces of meat nor does it smoke although I did fabricate a cover for mine and it does pretty good. I am reallybgood about making sure my grate is always cleaned and then I wipe all surface while still warm with peanut oil. Would I pay 150.00 bucks for one....no but I got this as a Christmas gift and love using it. It's great for deer burgers, skewers, dogs and hamburgers and it really shines cooking pork chops. Not sure I like the new version shown here. Doesn't look and heavy duty and I definitely don't like the detached handles. End up losing those. Mine are attached and cannot be removed.

@alanrowe4501 4 дня назад

Either those are some huge chicken thighs or that grill has gotten smaller possibly. I also would suggest to season the cast iron grill grate with a high temp oil like grapeseed oil instead of a spray. I also wouldn’t ever cook in a beautiful cast iron skillet right next to a greasy chicken because it will coat the outside of the skillet with grease and stuff. The grill definitely looks smaller than the original out of the box. I’ve never had the radishes so I will definitely try that.

@russbear31 2 года назад

Great review of the Sportsman's Grill. I will have to try your recipe for sautéed radishes. Years ago I remember seeing a recipe by another RU-vidr for oven-baked radishes. She said it was the only way she could get her kids to eat them and like them. Apparently, when they're cooked it tames the flavor and they're more mild. A raw radish can have a harsh, peppery bite to it. Cooking mellows it out.

@MrCastIron 2 года назад

I was shocked and dismayed when I looked at all the Lodge products including these griddles on the shelf in the stores. Heavy deep striations along the casting seams edges where it appears an untrained person ground off the casting seams, looked absolutely terrible. I even sent 4 pictures to Lodge, they replied they don't care, and it does not affect performance, which I already know. None of my other cast Iron cook ware from Columbia and China has theses horrible quality control issues. Not sure why Lodge refuses to update to longer handles on skillets and revamp their QC processes in their castings, very poor attitude from an American company.

What I would like to find is a cover for this. I do have a question, I debated about taking it with us on some trips, but it takes hours for it to cool back down. Do you have any tricks/tips on how to cool one of these faster?

@MrCastIron 2 года назад

That's cool! I bet you were surprised to get that early present! I also have the older model of this grill, and the grill cover fits these, too, from what I understand. Unfortunately, I don't have a cover, but maybe I should get one. The only thing really is a little time as far as cooling down the grill. After we cooked in the video, it didn't take all that long, maybe 30 minutes to an hour, and it was ready to put away.

First off, thank you for the video! I’m sorry but I’m not impressed with the new version I would rather have the old version any day of the week, 👍 PS Una casa Hibachi Grill Is like the old lodge , I love it !

@MrCastIron Год назад

You’re welcome, and thank you, too, my friend, for sharing your thoughts with us! I like certain things about both of them.

Wish the grill body was made of the same material as the grate. It would be awesome if they made one where the housing was cast aluminum.

Hey Mike! I never knew that Lodge made one of these grills! So neat! It seemed to do a great job with the chicken for sure! Loved seeing Teresa being your taste tester!

@MrCastIron 2 года назад

Thanks, Karen! Yes, Lodge has had a little hibachi-style grill for years. Yes, I think she enjoyed it about as much as I did!

We purchased this a very long time ago and we never could get it to stay warm. It would take forever just to cook fish. We need to stop being lazy and try it out again. It weighs a zillion pounds but it looks really nice. Update….I know what we were doing wrong because of this video. Thank you!!

@MrCastIron 2 года назад

Ok, you got me curious about what you were doing wrong and what my video helped, lol!

@imperfectpairing2000 2 года назад

@@MrCastIron it is really embarrassing. We bought the grill before we became seasoned “grillers”. We were not working the vent properly. In addition, there was so much ash that most of the vent was blocked. I actually looked at after watched the video and realized it. Lol I am still not sure how much use it will get unfortunately. We got a Akorn Char-Griller that is so darn easy to use. When we fire it up we find anything we can to smoke just for fun. We can make it last all day with one application of charcoal.

You’re welcome, Rick, and thank you too, my friend! There are great little grills that can be taken just about anywhere. Teresa and I had a great time cooking and making this video! Take care, buddy, and have a great week ahead!

@BobbiJo 2 года назад

I looked at these at the Lodge Factory Store when we were at the Cornbread Festival but I was waiting for the price to come down before I tried it out. I'm still debating on if I want to get a weber instead. I take forever to buy anything. They will have a new one out before I make my mind up. 😀

@MrCastIron 2 года назад

Lol! I hear you, Chastity! I usually don’t get in too big of a hurry either on most things. But I sure do like this newer version grill!

@hillbillybbq Год назад

Hey Mike buddy I'm sorry I guess I missed this one. I've been wanting one of these grills but I'm not sure. I'd like to find one of the old round ones. Which do you like best? I dont know if you can but I'd like to see someone cook ribs on it I bet you could if you wrap them after you get the color you wanted? See ya buddy!

@MrCastIron Год назад

Thanks, Hillbilly! I have both of the Sportsmans grills. I like certain things about both of them. I haven’t ever done ribs on them before, but I figure you could. Thanks again, buddy, and have a great week!

@krob777 3 месяца назад

How often do you have to empty the ass tray?

@AndrewSimpson-us9lf Год назад

Perhaps expansion and contraction reasons for 2 bolts instead of 4? And I think is should have had a replaceable bottom grate like the previous one as the most ware will occur there. As it is now, the whole grill body is shot if the charcoal grate fails.

@MrCastIron Год назад

Yeah, I guess time will tell how it will hold up! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this, Andrew!

@quest2782 Год назад

wait but you didn't go into if the old verson or this new one was better do you have a video on that one?

@MrCastIron Год назад

No I don’t have a video other than this one which I did mention the differences and changes that were made.

@thomastommy1192 2 года назад

A great video that grill would be great for people that live in apartments. In your video at the Lodge Store. There was ben with 10" Skillets for under $13.00. I can not find them on Lodge's website. Can you tell me how to find them? Awesome video thanks for sharing. Stay well & safe.

@MrCastIron 2 года назад

Yes, sir, it is perfect for apartment living, tailgating at sporting events, and outdoors. Unfortunately, I don't think you can order from the Lodge Outlet store, but we have several good deals on our Amazon Store if you would like to check there. Our affiliate link for Cast Iron is www.amazon.com/shop/mr.castiron. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you stay well and safe too, my friend!

The old one is better

@MrCastIron 8 месяцев назад

I like some things about both of them and some things I don’t like about them!

@josephkool8411 8 месяцев назад

Me too, the old one is shaped differently so it cooks differently and there's a learning curve to all grills. The new one has some really nice features, but I cook better with the old one. I don't grill with these very often so I gave the new one to my youngest son. When he learns it maybe he'll like it better than the old one if he ever uses the old one. He'll probably like it less than the the new one because he's gotten so used to the new one. Does that make sense? @@MrCastIron
