Introduction
Experience the authentic flavors of a New England clam boil right from your backyard using the Arteflame grill. These foil packets are brimming with fresh littleneck clams, hearty potatoes, sweet corn, and spicy chouriço sausage. The magic happens on the flat cooktop griddle, where heat zones help perfectly cook each ingredient while sealing in flavor. With no need for pots or ovens, this is grilling at its finest—easy, flavorful, and unforgettable.
Ingredients
2 lbs fresh littleneck clams, scrubbed
1 lb baby red or Yukon gold potatoes, halved
2 ears of corn, cut into thirds
8 oz chouriço sausage, sliced into rounds
4 tbsp unsalted butter, cubed
4 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 lemon, sliced thin
1/2 cup dry white wine or broth
Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
Heavy-duty foil
The Sear Makes the Steak, And Arteflame Makes the Sear
Why settle for low-temperature searing when you can achieve steakhouse-quality results with an Arteflame? Gas grills take longer, drying out your steak, while the Arteflame sears at 1000°F in just one minute, locking in juices for perfection.
Place 3 paper napkins in the center of the Arteflame grill.
Pour a small amount of vegetable oil on each napkin.
Stack firewood over the oiled napkins and ignite the paper.
Wait about 20 minutes for the griddle and center grate to heat up—you're ready when the center hits 1,000°F and the flat cooktop is sizzling hot.
Step 2: Prepare the Foil Packets
Take a large sheet of heavy-duty foil and fold into a double layer.
Place a handful of potatoes in the center of the foil, followed by corn, sausage, and clams.
Top with garlic, butter, lemon slices, a splash of wine or broth, and season with salt and pepper.
Seal the foil packet tightly, leaving room for steam to circulate.
Step 3: Grill the Packets
Place the foil packets directly on the Arteflame flat cooktop griddle near the center for higher heat.
Grill for 15–20 minutes, rotating occasionally to prevent scorching and ensure even cooking.
The clams are done when they open up and the potatoes are fork-tender.
Step 4: Serve & Garnish
Remove packets from the grill and let rest 2 minutes.
Carefully open—the steam will be hot!
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with crusty bread or grilled lemon wedges.
1,000°F Sear for Steakhouse-Quality Perfection
Only The Arteflame’s center grill grate reaches 1,000°F, delivering the intense heat needed to sear steaks to perfection while keeping the inside juicy and as rare as you like it.
Use the inner edge of the cooktop for higher heat zones and the outer edge for gentle cooking.
Butter instead of olive oil boosts flavor.
Rotate foil packets a few times to avoid hotspots.
Add extra lemon juice before sealing for citrus brightness.
Use heavy-duty foil to avoid tearing and spilling juices.
