Know before you buy
The 10" x 10" surface area is large enough to accommodate up to four standard-sized burger patties simultaneously, making it highly efficient for batch cooking.
Yes, the griddle press arrives pre-seasoned and ready for immediate use. However, like all cast iron, you should continue to maintain the seasoning with a light coat of oil after cleaning to prevent rust.
No, this product is not dishwasher safe. You should hand wash it with warm water and a stiff brush, then dry it thoroughly and apply a thin layer of oil to protect the surface.
The grooved underside helps create distinct sear marks on your food while also allowing excess grease to drain away from the meat, resulting in a cleaner, more professional-looking sear.
While it is specifically designed for Blackstone and other flat-top griddles, it can be used on any cooking surface where the press fits, such as a large cast iron skillet or a stovetop grill pan.
The press features a heat-resistant handle with a rubber grip designed to stay cool to the touch during normal use. However, you should still exercise caution if the press has been sitting directly on a high-heat surface for an extended period.
