We've used it to reheat fast food (actually made it better!), toast bagels, reheat grilled meats (perfect for Asian bbq, we did thit nuong which is bbq Viet pork), quesadillas, and of course actually using it as a panini press. It also has a floating hinge for thicker sandwiches or thick burgers or steaks. Personally I wouldn't cook meat on it from raw, I don't think the temp could get up to what I really would like it, but for reheating, it's perfect.
Other than my slow cooker, this is probably one of my favorite appliances we've bought in recent memory that I really love! |
Wow- thanks for sharing this! Hubby has been talking about getting one and checking them out at Costco today. It's nice to have a suggested brand and assurance they work! The hinge is what interested him along with the various panini sandwich recipes. They seem much more user-friendly than the George Foreman grills which were such a pain for various reasons!
