This grill so far is everything and more than I thought it would be. I just can’t get it dirty yet and grill a burger. Come to my house in the middle of the night and cook burgers and chicken thighs on it to really break it in while I’m sleeping lol .
You remind me of one of our old neighbors... he and his wife had purchased a new car... I was out front one evening and saw him coming down the street with a bag of fast food that he was hanging out the window. Looked funny!!! I asked him why he was doing that... his answer “I don’t want to ruin the new car smell.”
Honestly, I get it, a new shiny grill is kind of sexy... but there comes a time that you’ve just gotta get take a deep breath and learn to enjoy your new MAK to its fullest. Just remember, it’s 304 SS... you can use the harshest of cleaners on it without worry. Mine gets gunked up on a regular basis, and I know that at any moment, with about 15-20 mins of easy work, I can have it pretty darn clean again
