This is not a sponsored post. I just love QVC. I recently saw an on air demonstration for the Miracle Grill Mat and I fell in love with the idea!
You can now cook veggies on the grill without a grill pan, without the fear of veggies or foods falling through the grates, without all the leftover mess on the grates. You can fry an egg right on the mat, fry cheese right on the mat. That’s right I said fry cheese!
Cheese came right off!
It is non stick so it cleans right up. And when you grill a steak on it, you still get great grill marks without flare-ups. Since it is still a bit warm here in California, I am going to grill some food to try it out for myself.
I found them very easy to use, just place them on the grill before turning on grill.
When grill is warmed up just place meat and veggies as you normally would on a grill. Everything cooked so well and the finished food looked even better than cooking on a grill without the mat.
Now you can fry bacon on the pit!
The food was absolutely tender and delicious , and the mess cleans right up, just use a wet towel to wipe it off.
The veggies never fell through the grates and they cooked beautifully.
You can cook bacon and eggs right on the grill with these mats!
Check out my bacon and eggs happy face:)
Everything came out wonderful
Here is a bacon egg burger. YUM!

This comes with two grill mats and one baking mat which I tried out with simple pumpkin cookies and when the cookies cooled I tried to lift one with my hands. That did not turn out so well. The bottom of the cookie stuck to the baking mat and while removing the cookies with a spatula worked a little better, I still prefer parchment paper to this baking mat:(
I had high hopes for the baking mat but for now I am sticking to parchment.
The grill mats make up for the baking mat. And I feel that it was still worth buying.
Yes these mats need to be cleaned by wiping them down with a wet cloth then when they have cooled, take them into kitchen and clean them well with a dishcloth and warm water and soap. But compared to scrubbing down grill grates, this is a breeze.

Now for the recipe:
To go with our barbecue, I have prepared some barbecue baked beans. This dish is a regular when we grill, as it goes with EVERYTHING!
And even though I did not bake them, I am still calling them that because it sounds better than cooked beans:)
I love the way these beans taste. They are smokey with a spicy kick from the heat of the Serrano and crushed red pepper, and when dipped into with a tender piece of steak, your in heaven!
They do not take long and I usually make them while the hubby bubby is grilling, so everything is done at the same time.
Lil smokies or cocktail smoked sausage about 4 oz
2 15oz cans van camps pork and beans
Half a small onion sliced
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 Serrano pepper sliced
1/4 Teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 Teaspoon crushed red pepper
In a saucepan on medium high heat, add olive oil and cook sliced onions and sliced Serrano pepper until translucent.
About 5-7 minutes. Add ground pepper and crushed red pepper and cook about a minute more.
Add lil smokies,Stir to combine and cook on medium low a few minutes more or until sausages have browned just a bit.
Add both cans of beans, stir and cook on low simmer for about 20-30 minutes.
Serve warm.
This dish is best served with steak and some sour cream, fried pork chops, hot dogs or even fried eggs!
You can add other meats to these beans like bacon, hot dogs too!
So this is me last barbecue before the cold weather really starts to come around and I hope you like it.
Do you still que in the fall?
