The griller is
an underappreciated
workhorse that can quickly
and easily bump up
the flavour of your
favourite dishes.

What if we told
you there was
a cooking appliance
that could replicate
the same great flavour
created by an outdoor
barbie but that: 1) didn’t
require you to leave the
cozy confines of your
kitchen; 2) posed no
risk of runaway
flare-ups; and 3) could
get muscle-making
meals on the table in
a flash? We’re talking
about your oven griller,
that near-abandoned
drawer with its lonely
corrugated pan. It’s
time to start cranking
it up more often.
Think of grilling as
essentially upside-
down barbecuing,
in which a blast
of intense heat
penetrates food
from above and, in
turn, deliciously
caramelises, chars,
crisps and sears
everything from meats
to veggies to even
fruits in a matter
of minutes.
