Eco-Friendly Grilling *Giveaway* Published on Saturday, October 17, 2009 by

This giveaway is now closed.  Thanks for stopping by.  The winner is susan s.  Congrats!

I love to grill and barbeque.  In fact, these days that’s the only way I can eat chicken (I’m having some type of strange meat aversion this pregnancy).  But we don’t use charcoal anymore (but I can remember the days growing up where my parents did!).  The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a warning about the use of charcoal and gas grills because they have been linked to carbon monoxide poisoning and fires (respectively).  And for an informative article on how barbequed meats (and other types of well-done meats) may be linked to cancer, check out this article from the National Cancer Insitute.

A healthier, safer, more eco-friendly way to enjoy your grilled chicken can be achieved with a FlameDisk. This one-time use device allows you to grill safely in most conventional grills.  It’s easy to use (just drop it in where you’d normally put charcoal) and light it with a match.  It will be ready to cook food immediately.  It’s clean, easy to use, and actually gives your food the grilled flavor you enjoy without the hazards of gas or charcoal.

Here is how it works:

Utilizing solidified ethanol technology, FlameDisk provides at least 40 minutes of grilling time and is cool to the touch five minutes after the fuel is spent.  The FlameDisk is much more eco-friendly than charcoal and lighter fluid because it features renewable ethanol. Ethanol is extremely clean burning and generates 90% fewer pollutants than charcoal. The FlameDisk’s aluminum casing is also recyclable.

Grilling with the FlameDisk easy, safe(r), and less messy than charcoal.  When you’re done, pour some water over it to eliminate the flame and toss it in the recycle bin (please!).  It’s also safer for children since it cools quickly and can be taken on picnics, beach trips. and camping trips.

FlameDisk

The FlameDisk retails for $14.99 and includes 3 one-time use disks.  You can purchase the FlameDisk online or at retailers nationwide.

    It uses solidified ethanol technology for the heat source-very interesting!

    We usually use wood chunks to BBQ. I just learned that I should be able to find it at the commissary on base. I’ll have to check when I go on Tuesday. If they do, I’m going to grab a few!

    What I like is that there is no ash or soot and not messy, and the best you don’t need any charcoal starter fluid to get it started

    I leanred that The FlameDisk uses clean-burning ethanol. When ethanol burns it releases heat, some carbon dioxide (already in the air we breathe) and water vapor… that’s it. The smoky, flame-grilled flavor resulting from meat juices dripping onto the FlameDisk SmokerPlate is second to none.

    I liked that you do not have to wait on it to heat up.

  • by Jennifer October 18, 2009 at 5:08 pm

    What I like best about what I read on their site is that it heats up and cools down fast. I am always worried about the kids touching the grill on accident after we cook and before it had a chance to cool down.

    Just drop it in the bottom of the grill, peel the lid, and the FlameDisk lights easily with one match…fast, easy and better for you!

    main entry: this item is so unique and cool, what a time saver and less mess not to mention safe. I like the idea that it can be used in any grill and that it cools fast. we camp alot in our motorhome and alot of times we use the park grills that are on the stands in the campground and this would work perfect for that. thanks

    I like that the FlameDisk is easy to transport and store which makes it great for tailgating and taking it along on a trip. I also like that it is more eco-friendly than charcoal and lighter fluid because it features renewable ethanol.

    The FlameDisk’s unique SmokerPlate provides excellent flame-grilled flavor.
