[edit] Plot
Maurice (Romano) and Dave (James) are door-to-door meat salesmen who need to make a sale to keep their jobs. After several houses with no luck, they meet Loridonna (Sofia Vergara), who is interested in the guys' meat as well as what they are selling. However, an emergency call offsets them, as they now go to the home of Mafia princess Suzzane (Juliette Lewis). Once there, they then encounter mobster Tony (Kim Coates) and two hitmen.
[edit] Release
Grilled was originally titled Men Don't Quit, and was set for a worldwide theatrical release in 2005. However, poor test screenings pushed it back, and the film went straight to video under its new title. The status of its release internationally is unknown as of December 2009.
