Full Grill refers to using the Griddler
®
Five
with the cover lying flat, creating a double
flat cooking surface. In this position, the
foods you are grilling will have to be
turned over for
cooking. When
the Griddler
®
Five is used as
a Full Grill,
the grill side
of both plates
should be
used.
Cooking on the Full Grill is the most
versatile method of using the Griddler
®
Five.
With the Full Grill, you have double the
surface area (200 sq. inches) for grilling.
You have the option of cooking different
types of foods on separate plates without
combining their flavors, or cooking large
amounts of the same type of food.
The Full Grill also accommodates different
cuts of meat with varying thicknesses,
allowing you to cook each piece to your
liking.
Full Griddle
Use the Griddler
®
Five as a Full Griddle to
cook pancakes, eggs, French toast, hash
browns and breakfast meats.
When you use the Griddler
®
Five as a Full
Griddle, open
the cover so
it lies flat,
creating a
double, flat
cooking
surface. In
this position,
the foods you are preparing will have to
be turned over for cooking. When using
this cooking function, the griddle side of
both plates should be used.
Cooking on the Full Griddle is a wonderful
way to prepare breakfast for two or for a
large family. The large surface area allows
you to cook a variety of different foods at
the same time, or large amounts of your
favorite food.
Half Grill/Half Griddle
Use the Griddler
®
Five as a Half Grill/Half
Griddle in order to create full meals like
bacon and eggs or steak and potatoes at
the same time.
When using the
Griddler
®
Five
®
as a Half Grill/Half
Griddle, simply
place the unit in the
flat position and insert the griddle plate
on the lower portion of the Griddler
®
Five
and the grill plate on the upper portion.
ASSEMBLY
INSTRUCTIONS
Place Griddler
®
Five on a clean, flat
surface where you intend to cook. The
Griddler
®
can be positioned in three ways:
Closed Position
– Upper plate/
cover rests flat
on lower plate/
base. This is your
starting and
heating position
when using the Contact Grill or Panini
Press functions.
Open Position – Upper plate/cover is
open slightly beyond a 90˚ angle. Open
the cover to this position before using the
Griddler
®
Five
as a Contact
Grill or Panini
Press.
To adjust the
Griddler
®
Five
to this position,
simply lift the
handle until
you feel it
come to a
resting position. The unit will stay in this
position until you close the cover or
continue to open it to the flat position.
The cover will stay in the upright position
until you lower the handle for cooking.
When this is done, the cover will release
itself so that it lies flat on the top of the
food you are preparing. This allows you to
cook your food evenly from both top and
