Great griddle cakes
Wrath every penny,
Yes, you can set the burners to two separate heat levels. However, for best results, we recommend starting by preheating the griddle by setting both burners to medium heat for approximately 10 minutes. Once the griddle has reached a consistent temperature (you can conduct a sizzle test with a little bit of oil or water), you can adjust the burners as needed based on what you are cooking.
To minimize hot spots when cooking with the griddle, it’s important to allow the surface to fully heat up. Cast iron is slower to heat but will reach a consistent temperature when given time. Start by setting both burners to medium heat and let the griddle preheat for approximately 10 minutes. This will allow the heat to spread consistently across the cooking surface. Once preheated, you can adjust each burner individually based on what you are cooking.
The small channel or moat around the perimeter of the griddle is designed to collect excess grease, oil, or food juices. This helps provide a cleaner surface while cooking.
Wrath every penny,
Perfect pan for that long burner in the middle of your range. Currently, I use this pan the most. My only wish. The handles weren’t so large and stood more straight up from the pan. Also wish they were cast iron. Not gold (excessively contrasting to my stainless steel appliances). This is because I have a backsplash on my Viking range, so the handles get in the way of centering it over the burner. Plus the closed end towards the back appheats that side up faster and hotter. I just flip it around to heat it evenly. The open end still cools off during pancake prep, but I use it as a warming /slower cooking section instead. Storage is definitely a thing because of the handles and the slightly curved shape to it. I mostly keep it in the oven or out in the range permanently until I can carve out a special place in the pantry to accommodate the handles.
We love this griddle! We even took it on vacation with us to cook breakfast for the whole family every morning! We definitely plan to build a smithey collection!!
We love this double burner griddle. We use it often in place of non stick pans.
THIS GRIDDLE IS AMAZING..
