Too Many Contact Grills? Here's How to Choose the Right One

Contact grills offer a versatile solution for preparing a wide array of meals with efficiency and convenience. These appliances feature two heated plates that cook food simultaneously from both sides, significantly reducing cooking times compared to traditional methods. From perfectly seared steaks and grilled vegetables to toasted sandwiches and paninis, contact grills facilitate healthy cooking by often incorporating sloped plates that drain excess fat. Their compact design makes them suitable for kitchens of all sizes, providing a practical tool for quick weeknight dinners or casual weekend brunches.

Within the contact grill category, two primary subtypes cater to distinct culinary needs. Sandwich toasters are specifically designed for creating sealed, toasted sandwiches, often featuring plates with indentations that press and cut the bread. These are ideal for quick snacks or light meals. Contact grills, on the other hand, offer greater versatility with flatter, often larger plates suitable for grilling meats, fish, and vegetables. Many contact grills also include adjustable height settings, accommodating thicker cuts of food without crushing them.

When selecting a contact grill, consider features such as plate material and adjustability. Non-stick coatings are prevalent, simplifying cleaning and reducing the need for added oils. Removable plates enhance cleaning convenience, while models with adjustable temperature controls provide precision for different food types. The wattage of the appliance influences heating speed and cooking power, with higher wattages generally indicating faster performance. Examining these properties allows you to identify a model that aligns with your cooking preferences and frequency of use.

Leading brands offer a range of contact grill options. Tefal's OptiGrill Elite XL, for instance, incorporates intelligent cooking sensors that adapt to food thickness and type. Braun's Multigrill 9 Pro provides powerful grilling performance with multiple plate options. For those prioritizing toasted sandwiches, the Krups FDK452 Sandwich-Toaster delivers reliable results. Philips offers the HD2350/80, a compact and user-friendly option, while WMF's Lono Panini Grill 2-in-1 combines panini pressing with general grilling capabilities.
