Do you need to use a pan when using a infrared grill?

No, you generally do not need to use a pan when using an infrared grill. Infrared grills are designed to cook food directly on the grill grates, utilizing radiant heat to sear and cook meats and vegetables effectively. However, you can use a pan for specific dishes, such as delicate items or those that might fall apart, but it’s not necessary for most grilling tasks.
