Amazon.com Review

The versatile Le Creuset Grill is a reversible cooking pan for making grill marks on fresh salmon filets or griddling up a batch of burgers. It's enameled cast iron holds the heat over any cooking source and distributes it evenly from one end of the grill to the other--the cast iron is made using traditional foundry techniques and Le Creuset's well-known workmanship. The pan is coated with satin black enamel to avoid odor absorption, so this morning's French toast won't taste like last night's fajitas. The slim grill slides away for storage and is dishwasher-safe. --Lynne Sampson

5.0 out of 5 stars Also an excellent food warmer..., June 16, 2001

Fits over two burners on my stove just right and give equal and consistent heat coverage. Nice drain rim so that when you use the grill area the meat stays up off the heat and doesn't stick, as well as the meats fat is drained off to the sides.

Flip the cooker over and you have a flat surface that accommodates six nice size pancakes and four eggs well. Also can be used for making crepes I discovered.

If you can fit it into your budget buy two. This enables you to cover four gas burners on a stove and while you are cooking up bacon sausage etc on one you can be doing a bushel of pancakes on the other.

Have also used one as a heating plate. I simply place one over two gas burners and heat to hot, then turn down to low or warm so that it keeps the griddle-grill a consistent degree and then I set three containers I have vegetables, pasta etc in, on it and this keeps the food warm but doesn't overcook or burn the food.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous Giant Grill/Griddle, March 19, 2006

I have used the grill side several times since purchasing it and am VERY pleased. It is a little pricey but it also has a coating that a Lodge or other cast iron grill/griddles don't have.I also believe the grill marks are superior to other grills. Tough to fit into the budget but I think it was worth it! First of all, for those people that are getting rust spots after washing, you must dry your griddle by reheating it until any excess water evaporates. I then rub a light coat of oil into the pan when it's still slightly warm. If you have the rust spots just wash the grill with a brush and follow the drying and oiling process I explained above. You should quickly build a nice patina to your grill. It should only take a few times of doing this because of the enamel type coating. BEFORE using this grill I washed it in VERY hot tap water with a brush to remove any coating that was put on at the time of manufacturing. This should also help with sticking food. I have also coated the pan heavily with oil the first few uses. I've grilled delicate fish and shrimp with no sticking. After it becomes somewhat coated you can build on this by just wiping it with a damp cloth and drying on the burner. At this point any sticking should be minimal. Don't use anything abrasive. Good luck and I hope this helps.

I've had this griddle for about a month, and am quite pleased overall. It is heavyweight, and has a tough black enameled finish that quickly builds up a slight seasoning (oily film) within a few uses. Foods stick much less than then would on a raw cast iron grill. It does a great job cooking pancakes, bacon, or grilling hamburgers or steak.

The only negative qualities are that it could use a larger reservoir for grease, and it would be handy to have larger handles if you need to pick it up hot. But these negatives do not outweigh its use.
