Hi I’m Randy with Barbecue Guys.
Today we are checking out the Everdure 4k Charcoal Grill and Smoker.
When designing this cooker, Everdure partnered with 3 Micheline Star Chef, Hestan Blumenthal.
This grill is packed with technology and designed for precision cooking.
It pairs the convenience of an oven with some well loved features of a charcoal grill.
Let’s check it out!
The Everdure 4k features a touch glass display on the lid of the grill.
In addition to showing a precise temperature read, the digital display puts charcoal ignition
at your fingertips.
Simply hold the Ignition button down for 3 seconds, and the heating element beneath the
charcoal will ignite your coals in a matter of minutes.
This makes the 4k a really convenient grill to use any night of the week.
The touch glass display makes it easy to view the internal temp of what you cook as well.
Simply plug in the probes right here on the inside of the lid.
The 4k comes with 4 temp probes, and a clip to fasten one to grid level when needed.
Adding even more convenience, the 4k digital display is Bluetooth connected.
Keep a close eye on your grill temp and cooking progress with the Everdure’s app.
For this smoke of a tri tip and two hens, I was able to label each probe in the app
& set target internal temps.
It was good piece of mind to be able to check in at any point on the progress, and the app
notified me as soon as the first probe hit the target temp.
Between the app interface and built in ignition, Everdure makes the 4k Charcoal grill about
as easy to cook on as an oven - everything got some nice even color on it - and of course
you can’t beat the flavor you get over charcoal.
For times when you want a bit of guidance through your cook, the Everdure app is loaded
with Recipe guides to give you tips along the way.
For Nighttime entertaining, the 4K Grill has a built in interior light, for a clear view
of what you are cooking at any hour.
The air intake of the Everdure 4k is controlled by this airflow dial.
It’s marked 1-6, allowing you to precisely set temps & replicate them on future cooks.
Fine tune your airflow further, with the brushed aluminum top dial of the 4k.
It’s sleek design also features numbered positions, and it’s covered top makes it
rain resistant.
The lever has this grip - to prevent it getting too hot to handle while grilling.
For heat retention, the Lid of the 4k locks securely shut & can be opened by pressing
this button.
The lid has a woven mesh gasket, forming a tight seal when the grill is locked shut.
This does a good job at trapping heat and smoke inside the grill.
The lid and body are double walled with insulation between, much like a home oven.
The inner walls are enameled steel, and the exterior of the 4k is die cast Aluminum.
Inside the Everdure 4k, there is an 18 inch diameter cooking area.
The top cooking grids are made out of stainless steel, for durability.
In addition to this level, the 4k also includes enameled cast iron grates, which sit closer
to the fire - perfect for searing.
This steak got a nice crust with the cast iron grates.
The 4k also comes with a cordierite pizza stone, perfect for baking crispy pizza over
the coals.
This stone can also be used as a heat deflector for low and slow smoking.
The stainless grids sit over the deflector, allowing you to smoke further from the fire
with indirect heat.
The cast iron grates are in half moon sections for easy removal.
When you need to add charcoal or wood chips while cooking, there is a fuel supply window
on the right side of the grill.
These included charcoal tongs make it simple to add fuel, without having to remove your
food or cooking grates.
I enjoyed being able to spread out the coals while the cooking grids preheated, and add
wood chunks without any hassle.
When you want to add moisture to the cooking environment, the 4k has this included water
container that hangs on the side wall, beneath the cooking surface.
I added some beer when I smoked this tri tip, and the end result was tender and juicy.
At the bottom of the firebox, there is a stainless steel charcoal grid - which can be removed
for cleaning.
When needed, the entire charcoal bucket can actually be lifted out with this included
handle.
In the bottom of the firebox, you will find the heating element used for ignition.
It can be pivoted out of the way, for easily removing any debris that collects in this
pan.
When it comes to storage, The 4k’s electrical plug retracts into the back of the grill.
The pizza stone can be stored in this slot, and there are two hooks at the back of the
grill for keeping grill tools.
The grill body stand has a storage drawer, perfect for keeping things like temp probes,
and the included grate gripper tool close at hand.
It’s worth noting, the Everdure 4k is available in several color options in addition to the
graphite color we have been looking at today.
When it comes to prep space in your backyard, Everdure offers a mobile prep kitchen that
pairs well alongside their grills.
It features built in containers to keep ingredients close, slots to store your knives, and a multi
panel cutting board top - making it easy to rinse off whatever sections you use.
The chopping area even has a cut out for tossing debris into the concealed lower trash can.
This mobile prep kitchen is a nice piece of equipment to have, especially for areas where
you can’t build a permanent Island.
