IN THE SPOTLIGHT

Try this recipe for Beer Can Chicken! It’s an easy way to grill a whole chicken that’s juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside! As the beer heats up, it steams the chicken from within keeping it tender while also infusing subtle and delicious flavors!

Make lighting the grill easy! The Proud Grill Smart Ignition Lighter is wind-proof making it simple to ignite a fire starter while free from fuel, odor and flame.

Prep your cool grill by swiping away grease & grime with the Proud Grill Q-Swiper® BBQ Grill Cleaner. These wipes are food-contact safe and use natural cleaning agents to give you better tasting food from your grill.
