Editorial Review:
Produced in France, and crafted from a cast-iron base, this rectangular pan is coated on both sides with slightly textured black enamel. Over time, it will develop a fine stick-resistant surface. Oil the pan before use, heat slowly, and maintain moderate temperatures for best results. Use the griddle side for pancakes, French toast, or sandwiches, all of which emerge crisp and golden brown. The grill side's rounded grilling grids, set close together at an angle, produce excellent grill marks. Both sides cook food rapidly and evenly.Please note this item is not recommended for Ceramic/Glass stovetops.
The versatile Le Creuset Grill is a reversible cooking pan for making grill marks on fresh salmon filets or griddling up a batch of burgers. It's enameled cast iron holds the heat over any cooking source and distributes it evenly from one end of the grill to the other--the cast iron is made using traditional foundry techniques and Le Creuset's well-known workmanship. The pan is coated with satin black enamel to avoid odor absorption, so this morning's French toast won't taste like last night's fajitas. The slim grill slides away for storage and is dishwasher-safe. --Lynne Sampson

Makes breakfast a snap!:
I got this for my husband for Christmas and we made a huge breakfast complete with french toast and bacon from this griddle. It lays nicely on the stove and cooks great.

Great Grill/Griddle:
This is a very good grill. It heats and holds heat very well, and does a pretty good job of heating evenly, although there are "hot spots" on the grill in between the 2 burners. A tip from my wife for cleaning is to put a damp paper towel over the grill when you finish cooking, and after it has cooled a little and letting it set. It makes clean-up a lot easier.
Fabulous Giant Grill/Griddle:
I have used the grill side several times since purchasing it and am VERY pleased. It is a little pricey but it also has a coating that a Lodge or other cast iron grill/griddles don't have.I also believe the grill marks are superior to other grills. Tough to fit into the budget but I think it was worth it! First of all, for those people that are getting rust spots after washing, you must dry your griddle by reheating it until any excess water evaporates. I then rub a light coat of oil into the pan when it's... more info
Beautiful presentation, questionable price:
I've used this grill/griddle at work instead of our standard grill due to it's tighter grill pattern. The "bars" are very close together compared to a normal grill and the presentation was BEAUTIFUL on petite 2-3oz filets. The numerous and tight crosshatch pattern was very appealing to the eye on the little medallions as opposed to the 2 lines each way i could sqeeze on the little medaillions. The tight pattern also means more contact area which equals more caramelization and flavor. I was so impressed, I... more info
