@goldensrbest --No I don't have an indoor one--but do have the outdoor grill--I can't cook that way in my tiny apartment as it will set off the smoke alarm!! So freaking annoying ---and my stove fan does not s*uck up the smoke--but I did get my son a Ninja indoor grill and he loves it!! And yes , it does really well with meats/fish and breakfast stuff too.

Yes.  I have an All Clad grill pan that goes directly on stove top.  I use it all the time.  I made steak, BBQ chicken and grilled chicken so far this week.  Tomorrow I'm making my version of Chipolte chicken.  I much prefer my All Clad grill instead of running in and out of the house to cook.

I used to own the double burner Bobby Flay Cast Iron grill. It was a mess to use and set off the smoke alarm every time in my apartment like @wagirl.  I threw it out. 

I started making use of the Le Cruset grill top lid from my xl Dutch oven. It's great. No fuss or muss.

I use the top more than the Dutch and  the lid visibly shows this...but that's what they're meant to be...used, not saved. 


I have a grill feature in my Airfryer oven but never use it.

We have two indoor grills. One we use most often is the George Forman and then there is the second we received 26 yrs ago as a shower gift before we got married. It is one that has a water drip tray underneath. We like both but because of the clean up we tend to use the George Forman more often.

 

Outdoor grills are not really suggested in the HOA of where my parents lived and my brother still lives or of our location.

We have the Ninja Foodie XL and use it all the time for steaks, chicken breast, pork chops. I haven't fired up the Weber in three years.

How do you deal with the grease that cooking on the stove throws...my husband no longer is interested in using the grill.  I think we used it 1 time last year and so far only 1 time this year.  I told him we should sell the darn thing as he always sighs when I ask him to grill.   I have quit asking........I really dislike cleaning the stove top, and the glass always streaks, no matter how well I clean.   .....

I have a tabletop Hamilton Beach indoor grill that I mostly like. Top temperature is 400 degrees for searing steaks, etc. It does a nice job of grilling most anything. No smoke except for about 5 seconds as it starts to heat up but it's nothing really. The worst part is washing the grill piece. Dawn Power Wash definitely helps! I've heard good things about the Ninja....the Hamilton Beach is okay but it's not very handy because of the size.

We also have the Ninja XL and we love it, I use it often-chicken, steaks, burgers and particularly FISH because I carry it outside to the deck to cook it. I hate the leftover odors in the house.
