not pleased
The first delivery proved it's fragility when there was a chip on the rim of the grill side, allowing any fluids to seep through.
Amazon, themselves, were wonderful. They provided shipping back to their facility and send out another identical product in it's place at no additional charge to myself.
The second arrived unscathed. On the second run of making quesadillas; we hear a loud shatter type sound. The unit must of had a weak spot and caused a 4 inch long crack from edge inward toward center of unit rendering it useless.
In the end; the unit is not to par and I recommend Lodge Pro Logic Pizza Pan which serves same as griddle (no grill side(obviously)). Worth it
Cast Iron Griddle
This is a nice griddle. All surfaces are smooth and it cooks nicely. I had one disappointment and it has to do with packaging for shipment. The griddle arrived in a fairly lightweight, very skimpy box and as a result a 2 inch piece of the rim was broken off in shipment.
NOTHING better for steaks!!!
I can understand the previous not-so-favorable reviews, however I did not have a hard time conditioning the pan or keeping it up. The only time it got funky was after I left it outside, my own fault completely. I can say though that regardless of the time it spent outside it was fine after a little TLC.
To get to the point... this pan rocks. Im a 36yo guy living in downtown Chicago that takes advantage of the best steak restaurants in the city. Id like to think I have a fairly sound opinion on the bone in ribeye. This little grill pan when used the right way works flawlessly. The trick on steaks is the initial sear, youve got to slap them down on something well treated, and ridiculously hot. Resting this pan above a charcoal (gotta be briquettes) filled smoker base will get this thing glowing pink. Depending on the thickness of the steak (4-5min for 1.5" thick) is the time it needs to stay on to reach a perfect sear. Pull em off, let sit for the amount of time it takes to...
