TIPS
1. To avoid damaging the non-stick surfaces, do not use sharp utensils or cut food on
the Grid surfaces. Use rubber or wood utensils.
2. Baked waffles freeze well. Cook all the batter. Cool the waffles and place paper
towels between them. Wrap waffles in plastic wrap or freezer bags, and freeze.
3. To keep foods from sticking, you may want to re-oil cooking surfaces before each use
or use a cooking spray.
Use the grill in the CLOSED position to press hamburgers or other meats (i.e. chops,
Canadian bacon) or as a sandwichmaker. Preparing meats in the CLOSED position will
help cut down on spatter and speed up cooking times. NOTE that ALL the foods listed
for CLOSED grilling can also be prepared in the OPEN (Griddle) position but will take 5 to
10 minutes longer than CLOSED and will require watching and turning for doneness.
