Calphalon Professional Nonstick 12-Inch Round Grill Pan

I was using my George Foreman grill for almost everything, but decided that once in a while I didn't want to clean the grill pans and I would rather cook on the stove, so I ordered this Calphalon grill pan.

I have other Calphalon products and they hold up very well. The non stick finish makes it super easy to clean. I do not use any non stick spray oils in any of my pans just olive oil, butter or canola since it is my understanding that the non stick sprays can ruin the finish. I also hand wash my pans.

So far, I am very pleased with this pan for the price and the durability.

I've had this grill pan for about 5 months now, and I use it regularly (a few times a week). It's awesome!

It's such a time saver, since I can grill right on the stove without having to start up the outdoor grill. This is especially true if I only need to grill up a few pieces of meat or make a quick grilled cheese sandwich or if there's a thunderstorm outside and I really want to make a burger...I heat up the pan, do what I need, and that's it. Coming from a guy who loves to BBQ and grill, the only thing you'll miss is (obviously) the smoky flavor (nothing a little liquid smoke can't fix), but you'll get everything else-the sear, the char, and the grill marks.

The easy cleaning is probably what won me over. 8 out of 10 times, I just let the pan cool naturally on the stove, and then come back later in the night to wipe clean with a paper towel and then rinse under warm water by hand/soft sponge with a little bit of dish soap. A handful of times when there's a lot of char and gunk on it when I'm done, I've let it cool down and fill it up with water to let it sit in water. That way, it softens up all the burnt pieces and makes for easier paper towel wiping & hand rinsing later on.

Highly recommended!

I browned four huge chicken breasts on the stove, and am finishing them off in the oven as I write this review. The Calphalon Professional products are great.

I can't imagine not having this pan. It is perfect for hamburgers and bacon because it keeps whatever you are cooking/grilling out of the fat. This pan is light enough that it heats up very quickly while still feeling sturdy.

Want Calphalon Professional Nonstick 12-Inch Round Grill Pan Discount?

We purchased this pan for its size and for the ridges in the bottom. Our explicit use is for cooking bacon and while we are sure it works for plenty of other things it works perfectly for our bacon mornings! It also works really well for omelets too but for us it was a no brainer to buy because the standard pans are just too small to cook any decent size portion of bacon. FYI, the ridges also help keep the whatever you are making from burning. Either way if you're looking for a good pan to cook up some bacon look no further. As an aside, the pan is very light and almost seems flimsy but our opinion is that it's just a light pan that does its job well.

Chasseur Cast Iron 3290FB French Bistrot Grill/Griddle, French Blue

Smaller than claimed. actual cooking surface is 13.5 by 9.5 inches by .75 inch deep. Overall length is 16.5 including the handles and overall height is 1.5 inches. Claimed Product Dimensions: 17 x 10 x 2 inches. For those thinking this would cover their cooktop's bridged double burners based on the claimed dimensions, it will likely fall short.

What makes it unusable is that the bottom is not flat; one fourth of it is lower than other areas so it teeters and clanks back and forth on a flat cooktop. It will be returned and I'll just pony up for the Le Cruset double burner grill not available on Amazon.com.

Excellent quality, love it. Very heavy. A little smaller than expected but worked out fine. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quality griddle!

Mr. Bar-B-Q 94001X 18-Piece Stainless-Steel Barbecue Set with Storage Case

This BBQ set is so cheaply made and not at all worth the money. I bought it as a gift and immediately put it back in the box to ship back the same day. I would be embarassed to give it as a gift, it looks as if it was from a dollar store very very cheap. I am confidant it would not last more than a couple uses. The "case" it was in was black plastic and had scratches and dents all over it. The tools wouldn't even stay in the case and all fell out every time you closed the case. Don't waste your time or money!!

I purchased this set for a gift. Upon inspection the overall felling was cheap. The set is too short. It might work fine if you have a small grill. But I'm in Texas so we don't know what a small grill even looks like.

Its a great set that includes a lot, and my fiance is using it regularly (mainly spatula, tongs, and wire brush). Wish he would also clean the items and put back into the case for next time, but instead he uses them every other day and leaves them out in the rain for cleaning. One day I know that case will come in handy! At least it keeps the items we are not regularly useing together and clean!!

Cuisinart GG-10 GreenGourmet Hard-Anodized Nonstick 10-Piece Cookware Set

There are no negatives for this product line. Nothing sticks to these pots and pans and it is so incredibly easy to wash off foods that may look stuck. It slips off like butter with a little water. These are not too heavy to handle and the bottom is smooth so won't ruin your flat electric stove tops. The handle is easy to hold on to and I've been using it for over a year and there is no residue or scratches on the surface of the cooking area. It still looks band new :)

So far my cookware is great. I got the 10 pc set. Now I wish I would have got the 12 pc. No more ingesting PTFE and PFOA. Easy clean up. I now am able to make my husband over easy eggs with out breaking the yolks and I don't need to spray the the pan with any oil. LOVE IT!

We needed new pans for our FL home, so I did a little online research, visited a couple stores, and selected the Cuisinart anodized non-stick set as the way to go for teflon-type pans.

Great decision. I've since supplemented the set with a couple 12-inch pans of same type, and am completely set for non-sticks. These have been used repeatedly in our kitchen food prep, and I've had nothing but great experiences.

These pans heat evenly, the handles are well-balanced, and the non-stick label is completely accurate. No individual pan is too heavy, but each feels very solid in the hand. I use utensils designed for non-stick surfaces and have had no scratch problems at all. Even the handles for the lids are high enough for a guy's hands to fit under them without getting burned.

Plus, Amazon's price is hard to beat. Highly recommended.

Mr. Bar-B-Q 40027X The Spice Arm

Being an avid Griller and BBQ-er, I'm always looking for new and unique products that make grilling and bbq-ing more fun.

I came across the Spice Arm on an online tailgating blog and thought I would check it out. In the past I've used the traditional method of braving the hot coals and flames reaching across the grill to season my food while its grilling. I've tried the traditional long handled spice shakers, but having to fill, unfill, and clean them was a waste of time and I was always making a mess...plus, with a big family, making burgers alone has me using several different spices to accomidate everyone's personal preferences. This method had me filling and unfilling it only to do it all again when I flipped the burgers.

The Spice Arm solves all those problems. Not only does it require no prep or clean up, it allows you to simply snap in your existing spice shakers, uncap, and apply. The spices and seasoning stay in their original shakers which means no waste. The long handle allows you to season food on even the largest grills without fear of being burnt and the head of the Spice Arm easily accomidates all spice shakers.

Would've given it a 5 Star rating if it came with a bottle opener on the handle, otherwise, a must for anyone who loves to grill.

Weber 6495 Cast-Iron Brush

This is a short handled brush. It works well to clean the grates of my Weber 1810001 Summit S-420 Natural Gas Grill, Stainless Steel and my Weber 781001 Gold One-Touch 26-1/2-Inch Kettle Grill, Black. The bristles are very hard (not soft) and they adequately get off caked on grease and food particles. I only wish the handle were a tiny bit longer. I like to clean my grill when it is still hot and the short handle means that my knuckles get quite warm.

Works well in conjunction with the Weber 6424 21-Inch T-Brush.

good quality, seems it will last a long time and at the right price. It fits between the grates of the BBQ which is awesome!

Not worth the money... I threw mine away in less a year! It worked well from the beginning, then the interior of the fryer started discoloring after a while, and it was hard to clean.

I got so sick of it, then just threw it away and got the traditional Logic cast iron skillet. It works much better except the splashing part.

Cast Iron Heat Diffuser with Handle by Ilsa 8.25 Inch

This is a must if you have a gas stove. Simmering Spagetti sauce, pea soup, chili etc. If you want it to cook slow and not burn this is your answer. This diffuser is the best one I have found. It will last a life time, unlike the cheaper variety that burns up over time. This one also has a little handle that can be added or removed as it is needed. A perfect product! Thanks.

This is a 8.25 cast iron disk pretty much as shown. It works fine for turning the "simmer" flame on our gas range into a wider heat source that doesn't burn stuff in the pan. Since we do marinara sauce a couple times a month, this is important. Won't work on a flat ceramic cook top.

For years I have been dangerously stacking one burner grate on top of another on my gas range when I made things that needed simmering to keep them from burning on the bottom of the pan.

Decided to write this review as I didn't see any others reviewing this for a ceramic top or induction range. Took a chance and ordered it anyway and am so glad I did. I have an induction hybrid range (2 regular electric + 2 induction electric burners)with a ceramic surface. I needed a diffuser for 2 reasons: to use my tagine and to convert an induction burner for use with non cast-iron cookware. Works great for both. It does have a ridge on the bottom which I think is designed for a gas range but it works fine on my largest burner, which is induction, as well as the regular electric burners, as long as the ridge makes contact with the burner. Does not scratch the cooking surface of my smooth ceramic cooktop. Very happy with my purchase!

Soleus Air FTY-25G Table Fan with Rotating Grill

We are purchasing a second fan of this type. Ours worked for 5+ years, on almost all the time, quietly keeping the air moving in a room we call the "Garden Room" because that's where we have our houseplants and orchids (which thrive with a little air moving as long as they don't dry out.) We didn't use the timer. The oscillation feature seems to work fine without the fan moving (only the outer grill does). This also seems to keep the fan from being too noisy. Very pleased with the product and the company.

Timer is annoying, have to keep turning it when it shuts off automatically. Also don't be deceived by the "so-called-Oscillating" feature cuz it does not spin or rotate to get air in all areas.

Rubbermaid Commercial Products FG196700RED 13 1/2-Inch High Heat Spoon Scraper

These silicone spatulas are the highly recommended ones from a leading cooking magazine. So I purchased all these Rubbermaid professional heat resistant spatulas and spoonulas (9 ½", 13 ½" and 16 ½" in length). I use the spatulas primarily for folding ingredients in a mixing bowl. I prefer to use the spoonulas for scraping a bowl when I want to scrape out every last bit of cooking goodness (the edges of the spoonulas are thinner and the cupping of the spoonulas both help to scrape bowls, pans, and pots clean). The Rubbermaid professional plastic handles are more comfortable to use than the wood handles on my heat resistant spatulas and spoonulas. Also, the silicone heads of my wood handle ones are stiffer than the Rubbermaid professional ones. I think that little bit of flex in the Rubbermaid Professional silicone heads helps me scrape cleaner.

I have yet to use the little notch on these spatulas for scraping under the opening of jars (I think they were intended for use on the commercial kitchen size jars) since the spatulas are 2 ¼" wide for the 9 ½" to 2 ¾" wide for the 13 ½" and 16 ½" long tools. The handle ends have small prongs that look like they are to help keep the entire spatula or spoonulas from sliding into a work bowl.

I have some older Rubbermaid ones and they are definitely not stain resistant: the paprika has permanently stained one of the mixing spatulas. I was able to remove the paprika stain from the Rubbermaid professional spatula using dishwashing liquid and a nylon Scotchbright like pad. Also, my older Rubbermaid heat resistant spoonula developed a split at the tip and has warped a bit.

I just realized that one of the reasons why I don't like my similar sized 13 ½" sized silicone spatulas and spoonulas with wood handles: the working end is heavy so the tool is not as balanced as these Rubbermaid Professionals.

For most home kitchens, I'd recommend buying the 9 ½' and 13 ½" size spatulas and spoonulas. There is a 16 ½" size that is very long and the silicone head is the exact same size as the 13 ½: (14" actual) size (4" X 2 ¾").

PROS: The silicone heads have just the right amount of flex to scrape cleaner than similar sized scrapers and spoonulas. The handles are more comfortable and sized well.

CONS: A bit expensive but you a get a tool likely to last.

As reviewer Lisa Hidalgo noted, "This tool is best for commercial use." It's big, as in really big, and though I love it, it's more like a shovel than a spoonula! This would work very well in large Hobart bowls in commercial kitchens. In a home kitchen, it's overkill. Get the 9.5-inch spoonula instead.

I bought this by accident; was 'aiming for' the equivalent scraper, didn't zoom in on the picture and bought the spoon version by accident.

I was going to return it but treating it as a 'happy accident' because it will be the PERFECT utencil for stirring my chili and getting all that wonderful fond mixed in!

4 vs 5 stars because rather than having some internal structure to make the 'spoon' shape have strength they just designed it super super thick making the spoon side quite heavy; it's like a rubber mallet with a dent on one side to make a spoon!

this thing is desgned to be used in a commercial environment, scraping out a 5-gallon size mixer etc. it will be comfortable in pots bigger than 6qt and oversized on smaller pots.

Char-Broil The Big Easy Oil-Less TRU Infrared Turkey Fryer

We have been "Deep Frying" turkeys in oil for nearly two decades and I must say that the "Big Easy" is an AWESOME piece of equipment!

We received a call from a friend in Cajun country and he told us that we should buy the Big Easy. We bought it from Amazon back in Feb 2008. We did not use the fryer until yesterday, for Thanksgiving. We were shocked! It was easy to use and there is hardly anything to clean up . If you follow the directions, you will not go wrong. Before we used the fryer, I went to the Charbroil site and read the tips and updated information concerning the fryer.

You only have to do this the first time you use the fryer:

1. After you put the fryer together, DO NOT put anything in the fryer other than the basket and turn on the fryer for 15 minutes.

2. After the fryer has cooled, spray Pam in the fryer, place the basket in the fryer and turn on the fryer for 10 mins.

3. After the fryer has cooled, put some olive or peanut oil on a paper towel and rub the oil on the basket. Place your season turkey in the basket and turn on the fryer. Make sure the turkey legs are pointing down or resting in the bottom of the basket and keep the metal brace that keeps the turkey legs together intact.

** Each time the fryer is used, repeat step three (Oiling the basket).**

Tip:

If you cover the turkey with olive oil, the turkey will darken so if you like the blacken turkey or dark turkey, coat the turkey with oil. Do not put oil on the wing tips because the tip will burn quicker. If you use olive oil, do not place the cover on the fryer and in fact you really don't need to put the lid on at all. I did not put oil on the back of the turkey just to compare the color of the turkey. You don't need to put oil on the turkey because the turkey will have a pretty brown color without the oil.

Pull the skin back from the breast, place the season under the skin (Dried & Fresh), garlic, onion, etc use your imagination. Pull the skin back in place and season the inside of the turkey. While the turkey is in the basket, I placed half a lemon in the top of the turkey along with fresh rosemary, mint etc.

The garlic did not get mushy as it retained its shape but it was easy to smash. I smashed it with two fingers, placed it on top of the turkey and ate it. It was heavenly! The lemon came out juicy so I squeezed the lemon on the turkey. It was good! The lemon nor the spices did not over power the turkey as it gave a good flavor. The next time I think I will juice the lemon, puree the seasons and rub the turkey inside and out as well as place more whole garlic cloves in the turkey. The season does not burn.

On Thanksgiving, we fried two turkeys, one with oil and one with the Big Easy. The skin was crisp as you cannot tell the difference between the oil fried turkey and the Big Easy turkey. In fact, the white meat held more moisture than the deep fried turkey. We compared the two and the Big Easy won hands down. The Big Easy is healthier than the oil fried turkey. The juice pan collected the drippings, we chilled the drippings, removed the fat so it can be frozen in cubes for a later day. The turkey did not stick to the basket. When you purchase the Big Easy, the savings from not having to buy peanut oil is something that you do not have to buy.

Charbroil has accessories for the Big Easy at their website. I recommend the Big Easy and FOLLOW the direction!

This is a great cooking tool! It takes about 15-20 minutes to assemble (unfortunate, but I'm sure it reduces the cost to the consumer as well). The craftsmanship isn't A-grade because of sharp edges and such, but overall it is sturdy enough to seem like it will last a long time.

I wanted to test it out before Thanksgiving, so I bought a 12 lbs turkey to try it out. The turkey took about 2 hours and 15 minutes to cook, which is a little longer than their estimated time (the outside temperature was rather low at 30 degrees F).

The result? Delicious. The skin was nice and crispy, and the inside meat was extremely moist.

The fryer is easy to use, and it can be used for cooking all kinds of meats. I'm really excited to cook a bigger bird on Thursday!

Buy Char-Broil The Big Easy Oil-Less TRU Infrared Turkey Fryer Now

First, The Big Easy (TBE) cooks much faster than a "regular" turkey fryer. From start to finish, a turkey in TBE takes a total time of about 8-10 minutes per pound plus about 10-15 minutes to clean (by leaving it on) and a few minutes to cool down. Traditional oil frying may take much less time per pound but you have to heat the oil for an hour and then you have several hours of cooling, disposal, and cleaning time remaining.

TBE not only gives you the same crispy skin and incredibly moist flesh as traditional frying but you can also -

use a dry rub without having it wash off in the oil

put some "savories" in the cavity

use fine wood chips for a light smoke flavor

make "beer can chicken" or similar recipes

baste during cooking

I've also used it for chicken (whole & parts), duck. leg of lamb, and various cuts of pork & beef and had great results every time.

The only problems I've heard about usually have to do with improper assembly, usually not seating the propane valve properly inside the burner tube to allow for proper gas flow. Other than that, it's pretty much idiot-proof. I'd also recommend you get a decent thermometer (I have a digital with remote alarm) the one supplied by Char Broil isn't all that accurate.

I've been eating and cooking fried turkey since I was a kid in Louisiana (some 50 years ago when we used cut-down 55 gallon drums and fried the turkey until it floated). I'm totally sold on The Big Easy; it may well be the best cooking tool since cast iron.

Good idea and makes great turkeys when it works. I bought this a few months ago, used it 3 times before the bottom fell out of the stainless steel container (that you insert into the fire chamber)and this caused a small grease fire in the unit. Upon closer inspection the container is cheaply tack welded together and will come apart after a few uses. I have confirmed this flaw with another BIG EASY owner who also is having the same problem with the tack welds. Warranty is only 3 months on this product so it will last only one season if you are lucky. Char-Broil needs to look at their quality control concerning critical components with respect to this product since this could be a potential safety hazard.

Want Char-Broil The Big Easy Oil-Less TRU Infrared Turkey Fryer Discount?

I've cooked three 15 lb turkeys since getting this cooker before Thanksgiving. All have come out perfect. I brined all three overnight, and inserted the thermometer in the thickest part of the breast during cooking. No un-cooked areas.

I also did a traditionally fried turkey on Thanksgiving so we could do a taste test. You cannot duplicate the exact taste of a fried turkey with this cooker, but all agreed it tasted great. Even at twice the cook time of frying, this cooker uses much less propane as it is a low flame in an enclosed area. And no oil to deal with!

I did two birds at Christmas. We then cooked down the carcasses into a stock that included the drippings from the bottom of the cooker, and made a great turkey gumbo. I recently cooked a couple of chickens, and will next try a pork loin. I may never fry a turkey again. It looks like my old rig will go back to just boiling crawfish.

My only complaint is that it comes with a basket, and then Char-broil wants you to buy the hinged "Easy Out" basket as an accessory for $20. They should have made the original basket an easy out. It is a pain trying to get a hot, 15 pound turkey out of the basket.

Other than that, it was a great buy.

Zojirushi EA-TAC35TK Gourmet Sizzler Electric Griddle

This seems to be a great unit. So far it cleans well without chipping, which was my biggest concern when ordering. One small problem is that there is a space between the cooking unit and the base unit which allows food to spill through.

The biggest concern I have to pass on is that this unit is really BIG. The description mentions that the cooking surface is 13.7", but does not mention that the base unit is 18.5" wide, so make sure you have a space to store it. I had to store mine in my oven.

In my experience, the manufacturer, Zojirushi, makes well-designed products with one or more innovative features that set their products apart from others. In this case the safety features stand out.

This large skillet comes in five pieces. The glass lid, the durable skillet with its titanium ceramic coating, the hot plate base, the plastic base in which everything else fits, and the temperature control plug. Everything comes apart for easy cleaning, so even though there is a large gap between the skillet and the base (otherwise it would melt) spills clean easily.

Because there is a large insulating base, you don't need to worry about damaging your counter tops even though the skillet heats up to 480 degrees. The plug cannot be inserted into the hot plate base unless the skillet is in position on top of the hot plate, and once it is plugged in the skillet locks in place. In other words, it is impossible to expose the hot plate while hot unless you specifically circumvent the safety features.

The unit comes with a little metal spatula, so yes, you can use metal utensils on the non-stick surface. The temperature gauge takes a little algebra to figure out, but the dots are set at 40 degree intervals starting from 280 up to 480 with a somewhat vague area labeled WARM.

The surface is large enough to cook and entire breakfast for one. Three medium sized pancakes... a batch of french toast... hash browns on one side and scrabbled tofu on the other. Just make sure your coffee pot isn't plugged into the same outlet or your could trip a fuse.

I also use the skillet for dinners, stir-fries and such. Because of the two-handle design and flat surface, two utensils and a little patience are required to scoop loose food out. I also fry up batches of chickpea cutlets, eight at a time, so I imagine one could fit quite a few cuts of meat together.

When I'm done, I let the unit cool, wash it up and store it in a large space underneath my counters. A full kitchen might have trouble accommodating the skillet, so a few pots and pans might need to be thrown out. Who needs them, anyway?

All in all, this skillet has alienated my electric stove. I use the stove for baking and for sauces but everything else goes into my sizzler.

Well, I needed to replace my old skillet that died. After hearing about the horrors of Teflon and other non-stick coatings that can come off and toxify foods, I conducted research into alternatives. I could not be happier with the titanium ceramic surface of this skillet! I use it all the time and with metal utensils, and it looks just like new. It is soooo easy to just wipe clean. It all disassembles easily so cleaning is not a problem. I saw in another review that there was a crevice food could fall into and not be reachable and I'm thinking that person must not realize it all comes apart. I love the size -just a little larger than most others. I highly recommend this skillet!!!

I followed all the instructions and was very particular with it, but... I have several other Zojirushi products that I am happy with, but this one was a big disappointment.

I got this as a gift for my husband, since everytime he grills he makes multiple trips and dirties up a variety of containers. This makes it to where he can carry everything in one trip, and cuts down on dish-washing.

HIC Brands that Cook Stainless Steel and Red Silicone Locking Tongs, 9-Inch

The looking mechanism is great. I love the color and the fact that its silicone. The only problem is the thickness: ex when i'm frying tacos it gets frustrating having to attempt several times. Not sure if i would recommend. For the price i expect something much better designed.

I got this to go with my red colored Lodge cookware with the white porcelain interior. I'm not the only one cooking and it alerts others to use the red silicone cooking tongs with the red cookware that needs protection from scratches. I prefer the 9" size. It seems that I can get my hands up and down it faster to lock or unlock when needed. Dishwasher safe is a plus.

These are great! Only problem I have had is the silicone is a little thick and kind of slick when using to turn food so it can be hard to grip something that is why I rated these a 4 but I really do recommend them.

Char-Broil Live Fire Heavy Duty Meat Hook

Overall I'm very happy with this product. Nothing really stands out about it, but I also have no serious complaints about the construction. If anything, I can see a leather cord being more versatile to hang the tool from, versus the rather bulky hanging hook. The rivets securing both hooks to the handle seem secure, and there is no wiggle at the junctions. Made in China.

I bought this based on the price, so my overall impression is, "great product for six bucks!" Sadly, the cost has more than doubled from when I ordered this on 4/25/12 (with Prime shipping) for $6.57. I can't say I would purchase this at the current price point.

(Set of 2) Round Cooling / Steaming Rack - 6" and 9¼"

I'm very pleased with this product it is heavier gauge than I expected. I use the larger one as a steamer and my son uses the smaller one for his projects. This is a good buy.

Sizzle-Q SQ180 Universal Griddle for BBQ Grills, Stainless

I bought this for my gas grill because my wife and I cook hibachi style very often. There are many reasons to like this griddle:

easy to clean

very sturdy

doesn't slide on the grill

drip tray is useful for diverting sauces and juices

verticle sides keep food and sauces from falling into the grill

Even though it would be nice if there were handles that would make it easier to transport, I would highly recommend this product.

This is not stainless steel. It can't be. At first I thought it worked great, even though it discolored and couldn't be cleaned enough to restore the original look, but after a few uses, It started to get rusty, even without obvious moisture EVER left on the surface. Not blackened or stained, but flat out rusted. Now, without ever using it again, and keeping it stored in fully enclosed, completely protected cabinet in its accompanying bag (put away dry), we opened it this season to find it COVERED with rust and totally unusable. Lots of money for a 4-5 use item.

This griddle came exactly as advertised. Heats up super fast on grill. I have even set it on top of my turkey fryer with success. I have cooked everything from tater tots to fish, steak, burgers, eggs, veggies. I have not had any problems with sticking. I usually toss on some oil or butter. Puts a great sear crust on burgers and steaks. While griddle is hot hit it with some water and scrape off food into drip trough in front. I usually put some wet paper towel in trough as well to help absorb grease. You do need to hit it with a grill stone every now and then if you dont like the darkening of surface ( I dont mind it, a seasoned griddle requires less oil and cooks better IMO ). I DEF reconmmend this for those who are sick and tired of flare ups!

I love this griddle. When I read all the reviews on how hard it was to clean I almost did not buy it but did so I could try it myself and I am glad I did. After my husband cooked on the griddle and it was stuck with burnt sauce I took out my Mr Clean white bar and every thing came off right away. I clean everything with the Mr Clean white bars that you buy anywhere so I figured I would try it on the griddle and it works perfect. NO MESS...this griddle cooks food better than anything we have cooked on...love it...
