Note: You can use this sandwich maker open or closed, but firmly
o
closing the sandwich maker will help provide more consistent and
even grilling.
•
When using the sandwich maker as a waffle maker, we suggest
closing the lid and waiting until no more steam emanates from the
waffle maker as an indication for doneness. This should take about 5-
7 minutes. Add more time as necessary according to preparation
and taste.
•
For grilling meats and vegetables, we recommend slicing the meats
to a 1"-1 ½" thickness, especially if clamping the sandwich maker.
When using as a contact grill, make sure you have an even
o
thickness across your food to have even results.
•
Always drain excess marinade or liquids from foods before placing
them on your plates—this will make cleanup a lot easier.
For marinated foods, opt for marinates with a lower sugar content
o
as they may otherwise burn faster than the food cooks.
Caution: during operation, the baking plates heat up. Use caution to
avoid burns. Use oven mitts and heat-resistant wooden or plastic utensils!

3. Prepare your sandwich (you can also do this ahead of time) and
wait for the sandwich maker to preheat. Try not to overload your
sandwiches, as it will make it easier to close and more evenly cook
the sandwich without losing any of that delicious filling!
4. Once the green pilot light turns on, you're ready to go! The
sandwich maker has reached the optimal sandwich-grilling
temperature.
5. For the best, toastiest results, lightly butter the outside of your bread
before placing in the sandwich maker. Make sure your sandwich
fillings don't spill out for best results (and easier cleanup).

cooking plate and close the sandwich maker, using the clip to
clamp it down tightly shut.
7. Cook for 3-5 minutes and check your sandwich for doneness. The
