How thick a steak can you grill? What about a fillet that is 1-2" thick or a large chicken breast? Also, would you grill a sandwich, like a panini?

Absolutely! I cook thick steaks on this grill a couple times. a week; they consistently come out perfectly. Chicken is great, too. Everything I've ever cooked on the grill has been superior.

The grill does not get hot enough to do thick steaks very well. It will do a thick chicken breast, but thick steaks do not work very well. Paini's come out great!

You can literally cook anything on it and grill sandwiches just leave it on a little longer if it's thicker I make steaks ,chicken cutlets I love it!

I have no used it for steak, but have for bratwursts ( about 1" +) Worked good. I generally use it for sausages, bacon and boneless chicken breasts. I love it for my uses

The food actually tastes grilled with a good hint of char. If you want full-blown charbroiled, try a yakitori grill. They have them on Amazon. The ones that last are expensive though. My wife has been using this for over a year and enjoys grilling on it. She just used it a few nights ago and still loves it. I noticed she is sensible in using the grill, always being mindful of the instructions. I enjoy watching her grill skewers and steak. The food always turns out great with no left overs... especially when she cooks with BBQ sauce. She uses it for steaks, shrimp, vegetables, anything on skewers, chicken and pork chops...

Haven't tried that one, but I would bet you can. Cooked alot of stuff on a similar model when in college, just never did grilled cheese!

Use the vertical lines. We make them all the time. In fact with my HS daughter we have Panini Wednesdays, the kids come over for lunch and we make paninis. Bread, one slice of cheese, 1 or 2 slices of turkey... nothing else. Grill it up, totally deelish. Had to get her a gf for college.

This is our second grill ( we left the other one in the garage and it got moldy). We love it for grilling steaks etc. we are not allowed to use gas so this is the next best thing. Grilling steak tonight and I know it will be great. You have to make sure to turn it on to heat for a while before you grill. Also have the steaks at room temperature.

You know, I'd never tried this before until your question but I happened to have a wedge of hard Parmesan cheese in the refrigerator. I took it out and very easily sliced 4-5 slices off the end that ranged between 1/8" and 1/4" thick depending on how much pressure I put on the cheese pushing it through and how thick I set the adjustment for the slicing range. Thanks for the question! Now you have an answer to your question, and I have more options in cheese to put on the grilled sandwiches that I make! I just made one yesterday slicing apples crossways to go with provolone, sliced Vidala onions, green peppers and Dijon on rustic bread with home grown herbs. Yum!

Basically 17" deep , 25 inches wide. There are 3 burners with those triangle covers that the fat drips on and smokes . There are 2 other triangle things that don't have burners under them. Included is a great card that shows different food and recommended settings . For example 1st you start the grill . Each burner is lit . Leave at high till 500 degrees ... it won't take long. On the card it says for a 1 inch thick Steak cook 6 to 8 minutes on direct high heat. So you leave the settings on high . Place steak over Burner area . After 3 or 4 minutes turn the steak over then cook another 3 to 4 minutes. For Chicken Breast it is 8 to 10 Medium Direct. For Pork ribs 3 to four Lbs. 1 1/2 to 2 hrs Indirect Medium . For those you would put them over the Triangles without the burners... I cook mostly steak , hamburgers , chicken breasts and lamb chops .. This grill cooks fast and cleans easy. I follow the card and every meal is great.

You can make them as thick or think as you like. The thickest, if you fill to the top, would be 1 inch. If you want thinner patties, you just use less meat and don't fill all the way to the top.

I haven't used it for grilled sandwiches yet. Just 2 of us, but I would measure the width of the bread, and measure the size of the griddle, and see how many I could put on the surface, also if I could fit 2 rows on it. Bread comes in so many sizes, but that's the only thing I could suggest. Sorry I can't be of more help.

You can pretty much make them as thick or thin as you want them. I think I get 4 burgers out of a pound of meat. I divide it up in equal parts.

I have never cooked vegetables on the two that I have but I have fried oysters, eggs, french toast, grilled sandwiches. I would think that a steak would be good because of the high temps. You can't go wrong with this grill. The only thing I don't like and it's just me, I wish it cleaned up nicer. I would like it to stay looking new but because of the diamond surface it is a little more difficult to keep looking like I just got it out of the box. They might call that seasoning, it has no effect on how the food cooks.

This is not a large size grill, more of a medium size. No yet having used it to capacity, you could probably grill a dozen patties with some working space between them.

1 chunk for up to 3/4" thickness steak cooked to medium. No problem. I use pecan or mesquite.

There's a bottom grill and a upper grill of substantial weight.Place your sandwich in between and wait. Voila, panini! It's an excellent product but doesn't have removable grills for cleaning. Don't be lazy, it's worth the effort.

It really depends on how much you plan to grill vs griddle at one time. I used the grill side to make breakfast meats while using the griddle to make pancakes and french toast. If you need the griddle space... get the double. I prefer the half so I can have the option of both at once, and will likely buy the other single griddle to have as well for times I only need griddle.

I have had mine for a couple of months. Grills sandwiches, veggies and fish nicely. I would not grill a frozen chicken breast.
