Suggested Grilling
Temperatures and Times
Preheat both plates to 400°F. Put the prepared quesadilla on
the preheated lower plate. Close the top and using the cover
height adjuster, set the upper plate so it is just sitting on top
of the quesadillas. Grill for about 2 to 3 minutes, depending
on thickness and filling of the quesadillas.
Preheat to 350°F. Break the eggs onto the hot griddle plates.
Flip once whites are set, about 3 to 3½ minutes, and then
remove when cooked to desired doneness.
Preheat to 350°F. Flip after 3 to 5 minutes, depending on
thickness. Cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
Preheat lower plate to 350°F; upper plate to 450°F. Put the
seasoned steak(s) on the preheated upper grill plate. Grill for
about 4 to 10 minutes per side, depending on thickness and
desired doneness. After flipping steak(s) to cook the second
side, add the eggs to the preheated griddle plate and cook
for 3 to 3½ minutes per side. At that time, the steaks should
be done as well (or shortly thereafter, depending on the
thickness).
Preheat to 400°F. Grill until tender. This will vary depending
on the types of vegetables used, but should take between
10 and 30 minutes. Refer to our recipe on page 17 for
more specifics.
Grill dough on 450°F with the unit closed. Open to add
toppings and using the cover height adjuster, close upper plate
until it is sitting right above the top of the pizza, not
touching it. Cook until cheese/toppings are melted and
browned, about 10 to 15 minutes.
Cooking Procedure
Grill oiled pizza dough for about 5 minutes in the
Closed position.
Open grill and carefully top with pesto, eggplant,
tomatoes, salt, pepper and mozzarella.
Using the cover height adjuster, close upper plate
until it is sitting right above the top of the pizza,
not touching it. Cook until cheese/toppings are
melted, about 10 to 15 minutes.
