Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick Panini Pan and Press Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was looking at electric panini grills, but didn't really want another appliance that I would have to store on a shelf or cupboard. I found the Calphalon panini grill pan to be easy to use, clean and store. It goes on the stovetop. I preheat the pan with the stainless steel lid, while I put my sandwich together. Then I brush the pan and bread with olive oil, put the sandwich on the pan and put the lid on top of the sandwich. I let it grill for a few minutes, turn over the sandwich and grill the other side. I get those great grill marks, and the lid helps flatten the sandwich and heats it too. I've also used the pan for salmon fillets, hamburgers, sausages. It does a beautiful job. Cleans up well because it's nonstick! Easy to store as well. Love this pan!

Norpro Enamel Cast Iron Panini Press Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Norprp cast iron panini press is a very good and useful gadget. I had really gotten tired of using a filled-up tea kettle as the top weight on my grilled cheese sandwiches. The press has just the right amount of weight, covers a wide area on my 11-inch calphalon grill pan, and is easy to clean (just a quick wipe-and-dry). The reason I gave it four instead of five stars is that the ridges on the underside are pretty useless. You can't really heat this thing up enough on the gas burner to use it to simultaneously grill the top-side of your sandwich as the product lit promises. It never gets hot enough and loses heat as soon as it comes off the flame. So for me it's just a fancy weight -- but that's what I bought it for.

Lodge Logic Pre-Seasoned Rectangular Cast-Iron Grill Press Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am a vegetarian and I use this grill press all the time. It's great for grilled sandwiches! It will help you make great stuffed french toast. Your hashbrowns won't be a sloppy, crumbly mess anymore. This heavy little bugger is perfect for the aforementioned applications and about 40,000 more but the thing I use it for on almost a daily basis is preparing tofu. That magical bean curd benefits tremendously from the steady pressure of a hot lodge grill press!

While most chefs use a spatula to squeeze out fat from burgers and other meats, the process is a bit unwieldy and not always effective. Enter this grill press from Lodge, which features a heavy-duty cast-iron base that efficiently flattens your meats while on the grill or burner. The press offers a perfect way to drain fat from beef, eliminate curl from bacon and ham strips, and hold heat within grilled-cheese and panini sandwiches. As with all Lodge Logic items, the press is preseasoned through a proprietary "electrostatic" vegetable oil spray system. The preseasoning process readies the press for cooking right out of the box, making it far more convenient than old-style cast-iron items that required seasoning before use. The cast-iron base is not only heavy, but also attractive thanks to its unique hammered finish. In addition, chefs will find it easy to wield due to the "cool grip" spiral handle. The press measures 6-3/4 by 4-1/2 inches, so it'll work on most outdoor grills and in many indoor skillets. Lodge recommends hand washing the press with a stiff brush and hot water for best results. It also carries a lifetime warranty.
