Dreamed of an electric grill for about 6 years. And finally it happened About the smell of burning. I must say right away that I have not used other electric grills - there is nothing to compare with. But from this smell of burning, as if there is none at all. There is a smell of the food you cook in it. But this is not surprising. And I also don’t have an exhaust hood, so there is a smell in the whole apartment, but it doesn’t bother me yet, the smell is good. About steaks. The first steaks turned out like rubber, yes. But then we guessed to open YouTube, and it turned out that a steak is not just any piece of meat put in a pan, that its thickness should be at least 2 cm (now I often have more, and you need to cut the meat parallel to the table, otherwise if you chop it perpendicularly , then lay flat on the table and you will get a piece thinner than you cut). You also need to heat the meat to room temperature, after pulling it out of the refrigerator, for about 2 hours. And, lo and behold, the steaks began to turn out - juicy and soft. Moreover, we take the meat at the market, not branded. About tilt. It is, and this is good, since the fat drains, and bad, since everything slips, sometimes you have to hold it before pressing it with a lid. about your favorite foods. Potato! This is the fastest way to cook potatoes - cut into slices of 5 millimeters, oil, pepper, salt and grill. 10 minutes and you're done. Consolidation. Steaks from chicken, turkey, beef - I do everything on the automatic mode for steaks. It turns out great! Sandwiches and toast are great! Zucchini and tomatoes are not even worth trying - they are a mess. Didn't like the pepper either. At first, it was unusual that the baked strips on the finished dish are much thicker than the unbaked ones. In public catering establishments, there are usually such sparse thin stripes, but here almost the entire surface is fried. I think this is done primarily so that the grill can seal the meat well. About washing. More often than not, I just rub it with a sponge with notches for protrusions. Didn't wash in dishwasher. The purchase is satisfied. I recommend.
