Inspired by his mother Hilda to become a professional chef, Emeril first worked at a Portuguese bakery where he mastered the art of bread and pastry making. After high school, he turned down a full music scholarship to pursue his love of cooking. He earned an undergraduate degree and honorary doctorate from the legendary Johnson and Wales University. Then traveled to Paris and Lyon to study the classic art of French cuisine. Returning to the States, Emeril polished his skills in fine restaurants in New York, Boston and Philadelphia. When the Big Easy called, Emeril answered by becoming executive chef at the famous Commander's Palace. He's been treating us to his talents ever since these days, in restaurants of his own making. Emeril is the chef-proprietor of 10 restaurants, including three in New Orleans, two in Las Vegas, two in Orlando, one in Atlanta and one in Miami. Emeril has just opened his tenth restaurant in June 2007, Emeril's Gulf Coast Fish House, in Gulfport, Mississippi. Also an established cookbook author, Chef Emeril Lagasse has authored five books exceeding two million in sales!
Sometimes all you need is a single burner reversible grill and griddle. However often a larger work surface is preferred. Made of durable matte hard enamel that resists flavor absorption, both sides are infinitely adaptable.

So far, so good I've only used the griddlegrill a few times, but so far it's great. Actually haven't tried the grill side yet, but the griddle makes a great breakfast and really delicious grilled veggies. Fits perfectly on my old-fashioned electric coil stove. Just a few minor complaints: It apparently it has some kind of enamel coating and therefore can't be seasoned like regular cast iron, so I think you have to use a little oil on it every time. The surface is also a bit rough, so whatever you do, don't try to dry it with a paper towel, or anything that might give off lint -- you'll have to wash it again. Some things did stick, like eggs, but I think I probably had it too hot. Just soaked it for a few minutes and then it clearned off easily with a nylon scrubber. I'm looking forward using it some more and getting the hang of it. |

Great Griddle Not nly is this a great price but a fantastic griddle. Pro is solid cast iron, easy seasoning. I have seen similar griddles at twice the price. |

Buyer Works great size is perfect I can BBQ inside and get results that are very close to coal BBQ the only cons are that it should come with something to scrape the grill for cleaning and the grill marks should be diagonal I would defiantly recommend |

I wish it was a little bigger It doesn't quite fully cover the 2 burners on our stove, so I wish it was a few inches longer. It's pretty heavy and durable though and I otherwise have no complaints. |

Nice and heavyweight - difficult to clean Great Grill, however, it's tough/challenging to clean as food sticks to it quite easily and doesn't come off as easily as one would hope. On the up side, this product is well made and quite sturdy |

Great so far I have not used the grill side yet, but pancakes, hash browns, and bacon came out great on the griddle side. |

Good Value I was a little disapointed in the size. The measurements given include the handles and I did not realize how much smaller the actual working area was. But, overall it is a good value for the money. |

BAM! We use this on our middle elongated burner. The griddle fits over it nicely and you can get 4-6 pancakes going simultaneously which greatly improves pancake throughput versus the round cast iron skillet I normally use. |
