About The Inventor:
Leslie Haywood,
inventor

Hi! I am Leslie Haywood, inventor of Grill Charms™, the absolute "must have" grilling accessory that is revolutionizing the American cook-out. My vision is to see Grill Charms™ as prominent in the American household as the wine charm.

So, who am I and what makes me qualified to undertake and succeed at such a monumental task? Well, the short answer is: nobody told me that I couldn't! (And even if they did, I wouldn't listen anyway.) I worked for corporate America until I had our first daughter and left a fantastic company and wonderful career to be a stay-at-home mom. I didn't mean to throw myself head first back into business, but I just couldn't help myself.

While sitting down to eat at a dinner party I was hosting, my husband served me an extra hot Jamaican Jerk piece of chicken instead of a mild one because he had forgotten which pieces were which. After this very memorable and very spicy light bulb moment in April 2006 I have felt what I can only describe as a compulsion to insure every American gets what they want - how they want it - hot off the grill.

I have tried very hard to balance family (passion #1) and business (passion #2). I hope to make our two daughters proud one day, and even though I am making some sacrifices now (trying not to make too terribly many as they are only babies once), I hope that in the future they can look at what I have done and know that their opportunities are limited only by their dreams.

Oh yeah... one last part of "who I am". I am a Survivor. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in June 2006, had a bilateral mastectomy in August of 2006 during the middle of all the start-up stuff involved with launching a company, and now, two reconstructive procedures later, I'm better then ever! The scars never let me forget so I feel I must mention it, but it by no means defines who I am; it's just another facet to the ever complex and changing person that is first and foremost "Mommy". Thank you so much for your time and interest in Grill Charms and Charmed Life Products.

Grill CharmsTM offer an entirely new concept in outdoor entertaining.   They are dime-sized solid stainless steel charms that are placed in your food BEFORE grilling. The serrated stems hold them in securely while flipping, moving and grilling food like you normally do. Grill CharmTM  food prior to cooking to distinguish spices and flavors, steak temperatures, or to avoid health or allergy issues. Grill Charms™ identifies your food before, during and after grilling so when dinner comes off the grill, simply look for your Grill Charm™, and everyone knows which one is theirs.   With four collections for different purposes, they are the perfect gift for Father's Day, Birthdays, Groomsman, Valentine’s Day, the holidays, Housewarming or Hostess gift, you name it!  

 

For a truly unique grilling and dining experience there is  The Pink Collection.  This collection has six different charms so food can be personalized prior to grilling to distinguish spices and flavors, to avoid health or allergy concerns or for any reason you can dream up!  (We have friends over frequently and personally, I like EXTRA garlic salt on pretty much everything but my husband likes very little salt. We use these collections all the time, so I get what I want, the kids can have food their way and he can have his any way he wants it.)  

A new trend is the "season your own" cook-out.  This is where the host provides the meat, the guests pick their Grill Charm and choose from a variety of sauces or rubs that the host has set out.  Guests flavor their meat any way they wish and nobody, including the grill master needs to know or care how it's seasoned.  When food is brought to the table, guests simply look for their Grill Charm.  With folks watching every penny,  it's even more important then ever that when people splurge on buying that beef tenderloin filet, or carefully choose that chicken breast to spend their hard earned money on, that it's cooked and seasoned exactly the way they want it.   (With The Pink Collection, I donate 10% of the proceeds to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.  My mother and I were both diagnosed with breast cancer in our thirties, and with two daughters of my own, I'm sure you can understand the sense of urgency I feel to find a cure.)

This collection also helps with health or allergy issues.  With Grill Charms, if someone has a specific health or dietary need (such as needing a no sodium, low sugar or possibly a gluten free spice alternative) Grill Charms makes it easy for people to identify their food on the grill without any confusion or effort on the part of the grill master.
