Do you spray the grill with cooking spray and/or butter the bread before grilling or is that not necessary?

I sprayed a bit, but it seemed to not be necessary. Though, I did think the next time I use I will use a bit of the vegan (healthier butter) just to ad flavor. I thought of it as though if I made a grilled cheese in a nice pan and didn't need to use anything to prevent stick or if I added butter to make my grilled cheese, I personally would think the butter one tasted better. Hope this helps. I do feel the nonstick product would be enough without help.

We don't. It is non-stick and the times the cheese does get burnt, it flakes off when dry.

I'm about to purchase this, and I'll share the same cleaning method on it as I do my george foreman grill... when done, unplug it, and while still hot, wet a couple of paper towels, loosely wring them out so they won't drip, lay them over the open grill, then close it ... it'll 'steam clean' itself, & when you're done eating, open it back up again & use the paper towels to complete the wipe & clean process before storing.

HI! There are all kinds of options you can use for your preference. You can marinade before you bbq or sprinkle a few drops and rub it over the meat before cooking. Some like to add the flavoring after cooking. A couple drops do go a long ways and it can get a little bitter flavor if you use too many drops but it's how to your taste. I like to apply mine before bbq but it can be anytime. :)

I alway spray with Pam first. After the grill cools down, I use a Scotch Brite scrub sponge with normal dish soap. Cleans up nicely.

Well, I thought about that too. The only thing I did was put in the new grates & flavorizers and heat it up to a pretty high temperature. You'll see some smoke for a few minutes and then I let it cool. After that no more smoking and I went ahead and started cooking. I typically spray a bit of that Pam for Grilling spray to make cleaning easier later. (Never clean the flavorizer bars though.)

Personally I heat it for a few minutes beforehand, like 5 minutes on high. then hit it with Misto Brushed Aluminum Olive Oil Sprayer (olive oil) or pam for grilling which does an alright job also... If your cooking breakfast, I suggest bacon makes it really slick. Only tough part with the bacon is things will slide if its not perfectly level. If you don't like bacon please ignore my response and keep things sticking.

I usually do spray the pan with bakers joy but I don't think it's absolutely necessary. I think you could skip that step if you wanted.

In order to make a non-stick surface, the griddle needs to be "seasoned". Instructions for 'seasoning' are included with the griddle. When seasoning, it's preferably done on an outdoors grill. To season the griddle, season as you would any cast iron pan. It will smoke while seasoning. Do not scrub the griddle or use soapy water as it will remove the seasoning.

no need works great directly on the grill, in the oven and stove top. Just be sure to melt some ghee in the bottom to avoid sticking. Check after awhile and leave the top off to thicken things up.

I have found this grill is SO slick , you do Not need any type of oil.But if you want to use some, brush olive oil or coconut oil on your food before putting it on the grill.

OK. here is a simple solution which I have known for so long. There is a tray underneath the grill. Pour water there before cooking. Then, you will not have a much spatter problem. Be careful though. Sometimes, too much oil gathers in the tray that it might spill over the tray (but it never happened so far). The amount the tray can hold is limited. Just pay attention while cooking the oily meats.

I've not had a problem I run it for a few minutes then brush and use the tool after it cools down some I also use grill spray before and after I cook

You cook with it. No need to season meat or seafood when you place on the grill

It's also a good idea to spray with Pam cooking spray for grilling before hand.

Don't know why you would want to. I make french toast, pancakes and sandwiches there is no need to use cooking spray. So far I haven't had anything stick to the surface.Love that when I make bacon, the pan cleans up so easily.

We do not put anything on to seal before cooking. Doesn't seem necessary. To clean melted cheese or other grease or cooked particles I unplug the grill and wet a paper towel as soon as I finish cooking and carefully while the grill is still hot wipe down the hot grill, being careful not to let my fingers touch the hot grill. Works real well.

Yes, just give it a rinse and pre heat to high before grilling. Before grilling each subsequent time, be sure to clean with a good grill brush.
