How about the Char-Broil portable oven brand introduction

推荐型号:TRU-Infrared Grill2Go X200
 
According to Statistic's 2017 statistics, its grills ranked second in the North American market with a 25% preferred rate of users, and their market share is also comparable to Weber.
 
It is no exaggeration to say that Char-Broil is the king of charcoal grills, and its charcoal grills are among the top three in Consumer Reports' charcoal grill reviews, and their market share ranks first in North America for many years. However, the mainstream product in the current market, gas ovens, are relatively average, and they are evaluated in the middle of the "Consumer Reports". And because the charcoal grill produces more smoke and harmful substances when grilling, it not only causes pollution, but also goes against the popular concept of healthy living, which will undoubtedly weaken its brand advantage.
 
In terms of product line, Char-Broil's gas ovens are very few, and the quality is relatively inferior to Weber. However, Char-Broil is known for its innovation, applying infrared heating technology to barbecues for the first time, and its portable grill product, the TRU-Infrared Grill2Go X200, was recommended by The Wire Cutter.
 
Infrared ovens heat infrared elements by emitting heat from the combustion of propane, and at high temperatures, infrared elements radiate heat to food and cook it, with the advantage that the heat is extremely uniform and effectively reduces outbreaks, and does not burn the meat. It's important to note that while infrared ovens cook food faster, Consumer Reports' testing did not find that infrared ovens work better than regular ovens.
 
The Grill2Go X200 is equipped with a main infrared burner with a maximum output of 9500BTU and can rise to 300 degrees in 5 minutes, with excellent preheating performance, and like Weber, this Char-Broil grill has a thick aluminum cast body that dissipates heat evenly, but its perforated grate blocks a lot of heat from the firebox, and it is impossible to grill food to the best when in use.
 
The X200's most important thing about getting The Wire Cutter is that it's compact and easy to carry, with a slightly larger cooking area of 200 square inches than the Weber Q1200, but weighs 4.5 kg lighter, and the handle set on the top can be easily lifted with one hand, making it more suitable for remote picnics. The price is convenient and friendly, only half of the Weber Q1200, and the cost performance is extremely high.
