A good barbecue grill skillet makes the difference between foods cooked “just right” outdoors and food that’s charred, burnt, or worse – food that’s fallen through the grill racks, lost forever.

Using a barbecue grill skillet to cook on your grill makes good sense – especially when you use the type with a non-stick coating to avoid the need for oil or butter. You’re already saving on calories by grilling food outdoors, so why not eliminate the fat from your barbecue grill skillet foods as well?

Another smart detail to look for when you’re shopping for a barbecue grill skillet is a removable handle. Removing the handle enables you to close the barbecue grill lid and seal in that great, wood-smoked flavor.

And with a barbecue grill skillet, you no longer need worry when cooking delicate fish fillets or shrimp. Vegetables come out perfect, too. No longer do you need skewers or stick-to-the-metal grilling baskets for mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, or other vegetables.

StacksandStacks.com offers a barbecue grill skillet that offers practicality and comes at a reasonable price. Dishwasher-safe with a removable handle and non-stick coating, this handy grilling accessory goes for only about $15 plus shipping.

For twice the price and without a handle, GreatLakesGrilling.com advertises a barbecue grill skillet, called the “Cobb Skillet,” that boasts the benefits of evenly cooked food as a result of its heavy base that disperses cooking temperatures uniformly across its surface.

Fantes.com offers a barbecue grill skillet 11 7/8" at its top diameter and 9 3/4" at its bottom. Priced at $29.99, this skillet features a 9" removable handle with a rubberized grip, and a “Whitford copper tone finish.”

With a barbecue grill skillet, you cook on your outdoor grill much like you cook on your indoor stovetop. Of course, there’s no way you’re going to get that remarkable charcoal-cooked taste from your indoor cooking, so you may find yourself cooking outdoors using your barbecue grill skillet more often than you thought.

With that in mind, when you purchase a barbecue grill skillet, go ahead and invest in the best your pocketbook can afford. When you first taste those great foods cooked on your new barbecue grill skillet, you’ll be hooked! And you’ll be glad you bought one to last.
