MGKKT 1-Piece 16.50 Inch Cast Iron Griddle Plate | Reversible Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Grill Pan for Gas Stovetop | Double Sided Used on Open Fire & in Oven | Pre-Coated With Oil

I bought this to use while cooking on the grill. I do not like my food to make contact with the grill rails. This is perfect for cooking burgers, chicken, pork chops, and makes beautiful grill lines or you can use the smooth side for fish, etc. Just place it on the grill before you light it so it will get hot and the food will not stick to it. Or you can put a little oil on your meat before placing it on the grill. To clean, what I do, is let it soak in hot water while eating then I use a cast iron brush to scrape anything left on it. Dry immediately, then rub a thin layer of Crisco on it. This is so much better than using the mats, and they’re hard to keep clean. This may take a few more steps but this is worth it. I use this probably 2 to 3 times a week.

Our pan came broken. The one handle was completely broken off and loose in the box. We needed to use it so we didn’t send it back. It’s a great griddle. I’d recommend buying the two pack scrapers for cleaning.

I just made grill cheese on my new griddle. I have an electric glass top stove so I sat it over one of the large burners. It heated up evenly and my sandwiches were a perfect golden brown. I made sure I seasoned it as directed with a small amount of olive oil, Then after use I washed and dried it and re-seasoned it for storage. Its made of a very heavy cast iron with a non stick type coating. That is my only complaint so far is that it's so heavy.. But I knew that since it's cast iron. Big enough for 2 sandwiches , but possibly could have made 4 and squeezed them together if needed.

Smaller than what I anticipated. But it will work

The first one I received was not cast correctly and was very rough on about half of the surface. I requested an exchange and they sent another one before I returned the bad one. This is very good customer service. The second one was very good. I wanted a smooth surface so eggs wouldn't stick so I used a sander to smooth the surface. I then seasoned the cooking surface. I have used it about a dozen times. Eggs do not stick when I put a little butter on the smooth surface. I used the other side for sausages and they turned out great. I use an infra-red sensor to make sure I am at the correct temperature for what I am cooking. I also have the Lodge version. The Lodge may be better but this one fits in my camping box and cooks the same.
