(Food-Beverage-News.Com, November 26, 2014 ) Portland, Maine -- Outdoor cooking, barbecue, grilling, whatever name it goes by, has a long tradition in this country, and it has never been more popular than it is today. Statistics compiled by the Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association confirm that the practice is fully engrained in the American experience. The Do-Be Products company with its innovative Grill Mat product is right in line with this growing phenomenon which touches every social strata and every region of the country.
A study conducted by the HPBA in 2013 revealed that eighty per cent of American households own a grill or a smoker and that ninety-seven per cent had used it in the preceding year. About fourteen million grills were sold in the U.S. in 2013. The biggest days of the year for grilling are the Fourth of July, Memorial Day and Labor Day, but sixty per cent are using the grill year-round. Grilling is being done just about everywhere people congregate out of doors including backyards, beaches, public parks, football games and NASCAR races. Forty-one per cent of grill owners tailgated in a two year period.
The reasons that grill owners gave, in order of preference, were: • It tastes better • It is pleasant to cook outdoors • It is more convenient than cooking inside • It is a way to spend more time at home
According to Don Lowry, president of Do-Be Products, the use of a grill mat results in an addition to the list, because using the mat makes grilling much more pleasurable by eliminating the need to scrub the grill grates after each cookout. "No one likes the cleanup part of cooking, inside or out," said Lowry, "but placing the grill mat between the grill and the food results in a clean grill every time with no effort, and the mat itself is very easy to clean because food does not stick to it."
Do-Be is banking on the continuing increasing popularity of grilling and expects sales of the grill mat to soar accordingly. "There is no doubt in my mind," said Lowry, "that when people start using this mat, it is going to catch on like wildfire, and we will see outdoor cooking become even more popular than it is today."
