The main features of the Blacktop 360 include: independent controls for the deep fryer, infrared grill and griddle, as well as an integrated warming plate. It has a 650-plus degree ceramic infrared burner, a super-durable double porcelain enamel cooking surface, an accessory rail for a cutting board or other equipment, a lid that fits over the grill/griddle or warming plate and the cooking surface has a dedicated drain channel and supplied insulated oil holder. The unit has rubber feet for stability and protection, is completely portable, requires no assembly and comes with a convenient storage/carrying bag. Other accessories that are included with the grill-fryer are: a cutting board, thermometer, slosh ring [holds the thermometer in place while frying], and a liquid catch bottle.
According to the company’s website, one of the cool things about the ceramic element of the grill is that it gets so hot, it’s practically self-cleaning. After a cooking session, keeping the grill on will burn off any bits or drippings that may have fallen on or around the element – pretty much all that should be left by that point is white ash. Other surfaces can easily be cleaned by dousing the still on cooking surfaces with a little bit of water and wipe away the caked-on food – just make sure to have some water in the cooking reservoir when cleaning.
The Blacktop 360 Party Hub Grill-Fryer is sold at Home Depot, Target and Brookstone and retails for around $249.99. Call ahead to ensure availability.
