I have had a truly outrageous amount of fun cooking FYR Grill recipes over the last year. We spent so much time brainstorming what we wanted it to look like and all the functions we wanted the FYR Grill to have that it’s still kind of surreal for me to actually see it at work! I’ve put it through the paces with steak, chicken, seafood and everything in between.

So, as this grill starts to make its way into backyards around the country, I wanted to share some tips and tricks about how to use it. I’ve also got a roundup of the best recipes our FYR team of grilling badasses has made, so you can easily become a FYR Grill Pro too.

What Makes the FYR Grill Different

Creating the FYR Grill has truly been a labor of love. FYR may have started with hot sauces, but it quickly grew into more. My friend Pete Taylor at Spiceology and I had cooked on everything, but we hadn’t found a grill that checked all the boxes for versatility, portability and durability. That’s when we decided to take matters into our own hands and began designing a grill that could do it all. Then, the new FYR Grill was born. 

It can be the centerpiece in your backyard, then fold down to the size of a cooler and go virtually anywhere. We’re talking camping, overlanding and RVing, tailgating, beaching — the list goes on. We also went bananas with the accessories so you could have every live-fire cooking experience you could think of. It’s truly a grill capable of it all.

​I’ve heard from lots of people how much they love cooking on this machine, which is why we did a round up of all our best FYR Grill recipes. I can’t tell you how happy I am to see this latest version of grilling nirvana out in the world!

​If you want to experience even more of what we like to call FYR-y magic, you can still get our flavorful sauces. They’re great on recipes like Grilled Steak and Shrimp with BLK Garlic Butter, Honey Korean Gochujang Wings and Triple Seared Steak.

How to Use the FYR Grill

​So, how do you make the most of this piece of grilling equipment? I’ll break down my tips according to the three categories we wanted to be first and foremost with the FYR Grill

  • Go wild with the attachments. We really didn’t want people spending hundreds of dollars more than they expected for accessories. The FYR Grill has a modular design. It comes with Santa Maria attachment to raise and lower the grates for ultimate temperature control; a cordless rotisserie attachment for the perfect rotisserie chicken, loins, legs and more; and a skewer system to lock in each rotation. So, you’ve got them — cook with some FYR Grill recipes with them!
  • Take it with you. My favorite part of live fire cooking is that you’re outside, making killer food with incredible scenery and awesome people. But camp stoves and fire pits don’t always cut it. Plus, you definitely can’t lug a big grill rig to the parking lot of the big game. The FYR Grill converts into the perfect size to throw in the back of your truck and bust out at your camping trip, your tailgate and everywhere in between.  
  • Don’t be afraid to use it. We tested this thing a million different ways! We know it can stand up to the heavy cooking that comes with these FYR Grill recipes. Just look at the list I’ve made so far! You can be confident this grill will last.

FAQs

What fuel should I use with the FYR Grill? 

I’m a lump hardwood charcoal guy myself, and I haven’t found anything better than Cowboy Charcoal for these FYR Grill recipes. The stuff burns super hot and clean. Plus, that means I can use it in my smoked butter and smoked chimichurri recipes!

Can you use the FYR Grill as a smoker? 

Since the FYR Grill doesn’t have a lid, it doesn’t really work for smoking-specific recipes. But you could cover whatever you’re smoking with a aluminum foil pan if you’re in a pinch!

Where can I get a FYR Grill for my recipes?
