Plate and
Position
Suggested Grilling
Temperatures and Times
Bacon Place in a single layer.
Grill or Griddle; Flat or
Open
Place bacon on cold plates. Turn to 450°F (220°C). Cook
until desired doneness. Should take about 20 to 25
minutes for 1 pound of bacon (if using the Flat position).
Beef, boneless
steak
(refer to the
Steak Chart for
specific times and
temperatures)
Up to 2 (5 cm) inches thick.
Season to taste. Drain off
marinade completely if marinated
before grilling.
Allow to come to room temperature
for best results.
Grill; Closed, Open or
Flat
When cooking in the Closed position, preheat to SEAR
(with 450°F [220°C] as the default). Put the steak(s) on
the preheated lower grill plate. Using the cover height
adjuster, set the upper plate so it is just sitting on top of
the steak, but not pressing it. Sear for 2 minutes, then
the grill will revert to 450°F (220°C). Cook for 2 to 5
minutes, depending on thickness and desired doneness.
Rest for 5 minutes before serving.
When cooking in the Open or Flat positions, preheat to
450°F (220°C). Put the steaks on the preheated grill
plates. Cook for about 4 to 6 minutes per side, depending
on the thickness of the steaks and desired doneness.
Rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Chicken Breasts
(boneless)
Pound to an even thickness of no
more than 1 inch (2.5 cm).
Grill; Closed
Preheat to 400°F (200°C). Cook for 7 to 9 minutes.
(Internal temperature should be 165˚F [74°C]- juices will
run clear with no signs of pink.)
Chicken Thighs
(boneless)
Spread to even thickness. Grill; Closed
Preheat to 400°F (200°C). Cook for 8 to 10 minutes.
(Internal temperature should be 170˚F [75°C]- juices will
run clear with no signs of pink.)
Fish Steaks (sword,
tuna, salmon/boned)
No more than 1 to 2 inches
(2.5 to 5 cm) thick. Grill; Closed, Open or
Flat
Preheat to 400˚F (200°C). Cook for 6½ to 7 minutes
when grilling in the Closed position. 7 to 12 minutes in
the Flat position, flipping halfway through. Timing
depends on the firmness of the fish.
Beef, hamburgers
Shape meat into burgers of even
weight and thickness. Grill; Closed (with cover
height adjuster)
Preheat to 450°F (220°C). Put the burgers on the
preheated lower grill plate. Using the cover height
adjuster, set the upper plate so it is just sitting on top of
the burgers, but not pressing them. Grill burgers for
about 4 to 8 minutes, depending on thickness and
desired doneness.
Beef,
cheeseburgers
Shape meat into burgers of even
weight and thickness. Grill; Closed (with cover
height adjuster)
Same as above, but once burger is nearly cooked, with
about 1½ minutes remaining (it is helpful to use the timer
with this recipe), carefully open upper plate, place piece
of cheese on top of burgers, and then using the cover
height adjuster, close upper plate so that it is sitting right
above the top of the cheeseburger, not touching it. Cook
until cheese is just melted.
Sausages, fresh
Prick links with tines of fork
or tip of paring knife.
Grill or Griddle; Closed
Preheat to 450°F (220°C). Put the links on the preheated
grill/griddle plates - the grill ribs are perfect for holding
the links in place, and allow for easy turning for even
cooking. Close the top. Grill for about 12 minutes (turning
halfway through) depending on the thickness of the
sausages.
Panini
(see Sandwich Chart
for delicious fillings)
Brush tops and bottoms of bread
with oil before grilling.
Grill or Griddle; Closed
Preheat both plates to 400°F (200°C). Put the prepared
sandwiches on the preheated lower grill/griddle plate.
Close the top. Allow sandwiches to cook for about 4 to 6
minutes, depending on thickness of sandwiches.
Open-Faced
Sandwiches
(see Sandwich Chart
for some great
recipes)
Prepare desired sandwiches
to a height of 1½ inches (7.5 cm).
Grill or Griddle; Closed
(with cover height
adjuster)
Preheat lower plate to 350°F (180°C); upper plate to
450°F (220°C). Put the prepared sandwiches on the
preheated lower grill/griddle plate. Using the cover height
adjuster, close upper plate until it is sitting right above
the top of the sandwich, not touching it. Cook sandwich
until cheese on top is fully melted and lightly browned,
about 5 to 7 minutes, depending on the type of
sandwich.
