Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
A versatile performer, this panini grill and press set in chianti red from Mario Batali is perfect for grilling Italian panini sandwiches made thin and crisp with the heavy press/lid as well as searing steaks, chicken and fish filets. The pan's cast iron core guarantees even heat distribution, so your food won't burn, and it's been given a matte enamel coating on the interior of the pan that requires no seasoning or special care. Oils used and created when cooking penetrate the pores of the matte enamel to create a natural, smooth, nonstick surface, which provides easy food release and quick cleanup. The grilling surface measures 11 by 11 inches. The heavy lid is accented with a cast stainless steel knob, and it's further complemented by a helper handle for easy lifting and transport to the table. Safe for gas, electric and ceramic-top ranges. Hand wash only. Backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
Joining forces with Copco, a leading manufacturer of kitchenware products, famed restauranteur, cookbook author and Food Network personality Mario Batali has created The Italian Kitchen--a unique line of cast iron cookware, kitchen tools and serveware. Each item includes new features that modernize traditional cooking tools and are sure to be a help to anyone in the kitchen, from novices to the most seasoned cooks.

This review is from: Mario Batali Panini Grill and Press, Chianti (Kitchen)
In my opinion, this is a very good piece for any kitchen. I was looking for a heavy grill pan and this is the one. This is my second piece of Mario Batali cookware and both are far above average for quality and durability. I bought a round scrub brush to clean any cooked on food. Honestly, you just soak the pan in PLAIN hot water and any food particles scrub right off. I did oil mine after use the first couple of times and it's already starting to be easier to use. It's a keeper!

mario batali panini grill & press,
This review is from: Mario Batali Panini Grill and Press, Chianti (Kitchen)
Cast iron grill pan with press - heats quickly and efficiently (no need to turn burner on higher than medium). However, the bread when making a panini, tends to stick at first (even when brushed with oil) and you must still flip the sandwich when using the press.
It can accommodate two good size sandwiches at a time, but for any more than that I would think a larger counter-top press would be more appropriate. Overall a nice dual purpose item.

This review is from: Mario Batali Panini Grill and Press, Chianti (Kitchen)
I love my new panini grill. It's great for pressed sandwiches. It is heavy but I consider that a plus in a press. I would definitely buy more of Mario's products based on this panini grill..
