If there\u2019s one thing I hate about living in Brooklyn, it\u2019s not having space for a grill<\/a>. Growing up in the \u2018burbs, my folks grilled a lot<\/em> \u2014 rain or shine, no matter the temperature, you could find my dad manning the grill out on the deck. And, while I have a soft spot for delicious grilled chicken, steak, and shrimp, grilling veggies is one of the joys of life. I can\u2019t think of a better way to eat asparagus, eggplant, onions, and peppers than with those perfect sear marks and smoky flavor. Now, if you\u2019re a big griller, you probably already have some sort of kebab situation at home, but if you\u2019re new to the grilling<\/a> game or are looking to upgrade your arsenal of cooking tools, you need to snag this sweet gadget that I found recently which allows you to easily grill a bunch of veggies at once without having to worry about dropping them through your grill grates<\/a>. Allow me to introduce you to the Mesh Grill Bags<\/a> from Uncommon Goods.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n These reinforced grilling bags<\/a> are made with grommeted edges that keep your veggie slices, pineapple segments, or whatever you\u2019re grilling up safely secured from falling through the cracks in your grill grate. They also make flipping veggies easy and quick \u2014 ensuring that everything gets evenly cooked \u2014 and they help keep delicious juices from getting all over your grill, which means you\u2019ll be spending less time scrubbing your grates and more time kicking back with the family.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Personally, I love using these bags<\/a> to roast tomatillos, peppers, and onions directly on the burners of my gas stove. Because I live in New York City and don\u2019t have a grill (unfortunately) it\u2019s tough to get that blackened outside on veggies for, say, a salsa verde, without burning your hands or making a mess of your burners. Now, I can just pop whatever I want to roast in the bag, set the burner on low, and achieve that same grilling effect right on the stovetop. Easy!\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n And, with a high average rating on Uncommon Goods, me and my folks aren\u2019t the only ones who have been digging the grill bags<\/a>. \u201cWe have a combination air fryer grill, and these are the perfect size to fit on top of either the grill or the air fryer basket,\u201d one reviewer explains. \u201cThey can be used to grill, but also to air fry! It makes it much easier to flip small foods over half way through cooking. They seem like they would work on a baking sheet in the oven as well. Dishwasher-safe!\u201d Another reviewer mentioned that their father \u201cimmediately commented that these were so much easier than trying to cook vegetables on the grill without them\u201d \u2014 so you know they\u2019re dad-approved.\u00a0So, if you\u2019re looking for a simple and affordable addition to your grilling arsenal or a great gift for the grilling-obsessed person in your life, snag a pair of these mesh grill bags<\/a> ASAP.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
