Grills, Skillets & Griddles

I love it. But it's not perfect. You notice the uneven browning? The heating elements makes a loop on the underside so that the outside of the griddle gets up to temp, but the dead center does not get nearly as high (look at that poor lone paleface in the middle). The solution is obvious: I just don't put a pancake in the center. And I make sure that the griddle heats up completely between batches of pancakes. We get a nice crisp crust and…here's the best part…I can make them faster than they can eat them. I went from cooking 3-4 smallish pancakes on my Circulon to 8 medium to large pancakes. Woohoo! The non-stick surface is simply awesome and clean up is a breeze. The griddle surface will wipe clean after cooking pancakes. After cooking meat (we did pork chops), just let the griddle cool completely and gently scrape off the charred bits with the edge of a plastic spatula. Finish off with dish soap and water. No elbow grease required. The only drawback is that this monster is so big it does not fit into my super deep double sink…makes it a bit messy to rinse. That and I'm a bit of a spaz when it comes to using the sprayer. One thing I would change: If the drip tray were a little bigger, it could fit the temp control, so it wouldn't get lost and tangled up in my drawer."..."  Read more

I am super happy with this griddle. I grew up using a griddle like this one and I really only know how to make pancakes and french toast on a griddle. We have a gas stove and it is so hard to get pancakes cooked evenly on that gas stove! I used my griddle for probably three meals a day for a week straight when it first arrived--that's how excited I was to finally have one. :) I've used it many times and I've never had any problems with it. I'd recommend it."..."  Read more

This was bought as a Xmas present for my daughter. I already had one and loved it, but I couldnt find one anywhere, until I went on-line at Wayfair. Its just the right size. I use it all the time. It so much easier than a large griddle."..."  Read more

This purchase replaces an identical, well-loved, electric skillet - same make, same model - whose time had come. I deliberately did not buy the glass cover model because I was afraid oil spatters would bake on the glass and then result in a scratched cover when removed. This skillet cooks everything from pancakes to bacon to chicken to chops to potato pancakes wonderfully. Its large size allows you to make large meals and it washes well in the dishwasher. This electric skillet is a staple in our kitchen!"..."  Read more
