I needed a replacement for my cuisinart griddle. I have loved my griddle but after 10 good years, it’s slowly dying. That’s when I came across this gadget. A grand sailing skillet. It has a slight lip to help keep foods and juices contained. Perfect for sanwhiches, pizza, frittata, pancakes, and so on.
The Downsides
- You can’t control the temp. So beware of baking cookies in it despite the photo of that giant cookie.
- Can’t turn off each side individually if you only need one side. It’s been ok as we’re usually cooking oven style or with both griddles at the same time.
Here’s a few bullet points from the company:
- Dual heating elements heat up quickly and non stick cooking surfaces make clean up easy
- Opens 180 degrees so you can cook on both cooking surfaces
- Closes for baking crisped pizzas and cookie cakes
- Folds for upright storage, perfect for any kitchen countertop or cabinet
- Easy to use, just plug it in and when the indicator light turns on, you’re ready to go

Is this ceramic coated, or that non-stick coating that is not so healthy? We recently received a ceramic lined waffle maker as a gift and love it.

It’s anodized I believe.

Double Up Skillet and Oven
I have the same Cuisinart Oven Central that you have and find it to be very useful. How is this unit different, and does one really need both? Thanks.

The new skillet is great for frying things because the lip keeps stuff from sliding out while underway, but it’s not deep enough to bake something like a coffee cake. https://www.gonewiththewynns.com/product/productdouble-up-skillet-and-oven
