cook burgers, boneless pieces of meat
and thin cuts of meat and vegetables.
The Contact Grill function works best
when you want to cook something in a
short amount of time or when you are
looking for a healthy method of grilling.
When cooked on the contact grill, food
will cook quickly because you are grilling
both sides of the food at the same time.
The ribs on the grill side of the plates,
combined with the grease spout at the
rear of the plate, allow the grease to drip
from the meat and drain off the plates.
When the Griddler is used as a Contact
Grill , the grill plates are recommended.
Rest the cover evenly on top of the food
until it has reached the desired cooked
temperature.
The Griddler was designed with a unique
handle and hinge that allow the cover to
adjust to the thickness of the food. You
can easily grill anything from a thinly
sliced potato to a thick sirloin steak with
even results.
When cooking more than one food item in
the Contact Grill, it is important that the
thickness of food items is consistent so
the cover will close
evenly on the food.
Panini Press
Use the Griddler as a
Panini Press to grill
sandwiches, breads
and quesadillas.
The word “panini” is Italian for grilled
sandwiches. Panini can include any
combination of ingredients such as
vegetables, meat and cheese layered
between two pieces of fresh-baked bread.
The sandwich is then pressed between
two grill or griddle plates to toast the bread
and warm the sandwich. Experiment to
make a variety of savory or sweet
sandwiches for any meal. We recommend
using fresh-baked bread to produce the
best tasting panini. Popular breads used
for panini are focaccia (a flat bread
frequently baked with rosemary, salt and
onion on top), michetta (a small round roll
with a crisp crust), ciabatta (a rectangular
bread with a slightly domed crust) and
thick slices of classic Italian bread.
When the Griddler is used as a Panini
Press, the grill plates are recommended.
We recommend the grill plates because
traditional-style panini sandwiches have
grill marks on the bread. However,
depending upon the type of sandwich you
are preparing, you may wish to use the
griddle plates or any combination of the
two. The Griddler functions as a panini
press in the same manner that it functions
as a Contact Grill . The Griddler was
designed with a unique handle and hinge
that allow the cover to adjust to the
thickness of the sandwich you are
preparing, and to rest there evenly. Light
pressure can be applied to the handle to
press and heat the sandwich to your
liking.
When cooking more
than one panini, it is
important that the
thickness of the
sandwiches is
consistent so the
cover will close
evenly on the panini.
Open Grill
Use the Griddler as an Open Grill to
cook burgers, steak, poultry (we do not
recommend cooking bone-in chicken,
since it does not cook evenly on a Full
Grill), fish and vegetables.
Cooking on the Open Grill is the most
versatile method of using the Griddler. In
the open position, 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
open position also
accommodates
different cuts of
meat with varying
thicknesses,
allowing you to
cook each piece
to your liking.
“Open Grill” refers to using the Griddler
with the cover lying flat, creating a double,
flat cooking surface. In this position, the
