Grease free grilling
Scanpan's double burner grill griddle far exceeded my expectations and is now my favorite way to cook meat and fish. It's quick, easy, and siphons off excess fat. Plus the teflon-free non-stick properties make it easy to clean. I put it in the dishwasher.
disappointing: chips and gunk
I've had this pan for a few years and have used it a lot for grilling and then broiling. I never used metal with it, and I never put it in the dishwasher. Despite Scanpan's claims I treated it like a fragile nonstick pan. After a few months of use -- two times a week a least -- it developed patches of gunk in the ridges that simply could not be scrubbed off (with bristle brush or nylon scrubber). It got uglier and uglier. After a year I noticed that the nonstick coating began to chip at the tops of the ridges. Again, I never used metal. I finally gave up and put it in the dishwasher to give it a good cleaning, but this only seemed to discolor it and exacerbate the chipping. Now, when I use it (and I still use it sometimes), I find there's a graphite-like film on the bottom that gets on my hands. So this thing seems to be disintegrating when it should have been indestructible given the price. Maybe I should have kept it out of the broiler. I guess I could test Scanpan's no-fault...
Love this Grill
You can't go wrong with this grill. Cooks evenly and very fast. Really does not stick. Easy to clean. I grill veggies (string beans, asparagus, eggplant, squash, zucchini), fish, burgers, chicken, steaks, shrimp...etc. It is perfection. I use it a few times a week and I love it.
