I Tried the Cult-Favorite Grilling Accessory I Keep Seeing on TV — Here’s What I Thought — Shopping

I have all the tools I could possibly need for my gas grill — a cast iron plancha, remote thermometer, metal box for wood chips — and I love them all. There’s one thing I never really loved, though: the stainless steel vegetable basket. It definitely keeps small foods from falling through the grates, but it’s too small itself to effectively grill these items without crowding.

However, a new breed of copper grill mats aims to solve this problem. They’re super-thin, flexible sheets of heat-resistant material woven with copper threads and covered in a nonstick coating. They’re big enough to allow foods to really spread out and they keep oils and marinades from dripping through, so there are no flare-ups. Plus, since the copper conducts heat, you get those all-important grill marks and browning.

Sounds great, but do they really work? I recently tried one out and the short answer is: sort of.

Warrior Fit Testimonials

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
