Why
We all love the idea of grilling our food for that juicy,
char-grilled flavor and texture, but not all of us love the idea
of having to go outside to do it. Often the weather doesn’t
cooperate, plus there is all of that unpleasant smoke

PowerXL
and odor as well as nasty flare-ups! Now we offer you an
amazing option for grilling…INDOORS! The PowerXL
Smokeless Grill solves all of the problems associated with
outdoor grilling and allows you to grill right in the comfort

Smokeless
of your home, apartment, patio, boat or RV!
The PowerXL Smokeless Grill contains new
technology that extracts virtually all of the smoke from
its source and sucks it away so that neither you nor

Grill?
your smoke detector will detect smoke! It’s so convenient
to grill and get delicious real grill marks and char-grilled
flavor indoors on our amazing heavy duty cast aluminum
plate with the heat source built into it. It’s encased in high-
end ceramic nonstick, which makes clean up a joke,
and all parts except for the electrical base unit are
dishwasher safe! This means that the drippings and grease
can slip right down underneath into a collection tray, unlike
on your grill where grease falls right into
the heat source and causes flare-ups that ruin your
expensive meat and seafood!
Not only can you grill indoors, but our temperature
dial allows you to cook in many other ways, too. You can
slow-grill foods like wings and pizzas at 350º F, or melt
paninis and other cheesy delights at 300º F, or even
steam seafood and veggies in the Griddle Plate using
the included lid. Plus, the Griddle Plate gives you the
versatility to use it everyday for everything you cook from
eggs to pancakes to stir fry and cheesesteaks. It’s small
enough to take up little room in your kitchen, but large
enough to feed a hungry family!

Eric’s
Favorite Rubs
I like to make these rubs and store them in small air-tight containers.
These recipes yield about a 1/2 cup. Making extra rubs saves time and money,
and you will definitely enjoy having some versatile flavors at the ready in your
cooking arsenal. Use these rubs not just for meat, fish and poultry; you can also
sprinkle the Everyday Rub on a salad for some extra punch. Try the Poultry Rub
on grilled veggies. The Red Meat Rub is great for flavoring your meatloaf mix.
The idea is to play around and see how many different things you can do with them!

Directions: Mix all of the ingredients together until well incorporated.


You can make into a fine powder by placing into a blender or spice grinder.
