If you have always wanted to be able to cook amazing food quickly and efficiently without the hassle of lots of cleaning after or if you cannot cook very well, are fed up with boxed meals or plain old sandwiches which are really boring, or are just limited with space, then take a look at the Cuisinart Griddler Jr.
It quickly and evenly grills, panini sandwiches, steaks, fish, chicken, burgers and vegetables and makes the food look nice with seared in Grill marks (which not all grills or sandwich makers can do well). The temperature dial to increase heat makes it simple, and the fact that it heats so well is amazing. The plates do take a bit of time to cool, but they are easy to remove and clean, just take off the plates and soak for a few minutes and nothing sticks.
It is small and compact, so is easily packed up to take to a friends house to make some sandwiches or party snacks such as mini burgers, low fat entrees or chicken/vegetable skewers.
If you have a very small kitchen, or are in a college dorm/apartment then this would be a wonderful addition as it requires little counter space, fits easily on a shelf and is so easy to clean, even when you have cooked ribs on it.
It is small, hence the name "Jr", but it is the perfect size if you have a small space, it is easy to move around when needed and easy to clean. When it opens up flat, you can cook meat for four or more people. The easy to use, one control with 3 heat settings is all that is needed.
You can cook a lot of things healthily on the Cuisinart Griddler Jr. such as the items mentioned previously, hot dogs, quesadillas or even thawed or frozen chicken breasts and steaks. Vegetables are also easy to cook on the grill and taste great, try rinsing some asparagus, throw on a little oil and you have the most perfect tastiest grilled asparagus in 5 minutes, easy to make and healthy too.
