Summer has arrived, and with it come sunny skies, warm breezes, and the sizzling aromas of backyard barbecues. Over the coming holiday weekend, make your own meals any time of day with one of our many versatile Presto® electric griddles. Whether hosting a big breakfast or block party, frying up dinner for your family, or making a quick and satisfying lunch for one, our electric griddles come in different sizes and styles that fit all kinds of kitchens. Read on to see which griddle best suits your style.
Dynamic Ceramic
You can’t go wrong with the 22-inch Electric Griddle for all-around use. This well-rounded model has a textured ceramic cooking surface which prevents foods from sticking. The extra-wide cooking surface lets you make multiple foods simultaneously, with a slide-out drip tray for catching excess from the surface. When done cooking, the whole griddle is fully immersible with the heat control removed, meaning you can easily wash and dry it before storing. Its sturdy handles are removable without any tools, letting the griddle fit inside most standard 18-inch cabinets.
Plus Possibilities
For volume and variety, the cool-touch electric Griddle/Warmer Plus™ gives you functions and features you won’t find on any other griddle. Its massive 14- x 15-inch cooking surface has a “squared” shape, giving you more space than most conventional rectangular griddles. Both the front and sides have a cool-touch base around the cooking surface for helping with arranging and moving foods. Exclusive to this model is the detachable warming tray. Connected to the back side of the griddle, this multipurpose tray keeps foods placed inside it warm after cooking. Or, you can flip it up 90 degrees to act as a spatter shield when cooking. You can even fold it forward to cover a portion of the cooking surface, making it useful as a divider, melting chamber, or steaming lid! When not cooking, the whole tray detaches from the griddle so that you can use it as a serving dish.
Griddle Greatness, Big or Liddle
Presto offers various electric griddles of different sizes and features to fit your meal plan. Tackle pork chops, bacon, burgers, and more with the Tilt’nDrain™ BigGriddle®. Pull the handles on the sides of the griddle out to tilt the whole surface, easily draining grease or juices from meats on top. On the other hand, what if you only need enough space to sizzle up a meal for one or two people? Liddle Griddle® keeps all the durable, reliable construction in a personal-sized appliance. Want to keep cooking capacity but save on cabinet space? The legs of the Tilt-n-Fold™ Family-Size and XL Griddle models fold in from the bottom for compact storage. Both still keep other well-loved utilities, like the slide-out drip tray, tilting surface, and PFAS-free nonstick coating.
Recipe Roundup
Whichever griddle you use at home, there’s no shortage of great recipes to try cooking up.
Here are a few of our Presto favorites!
This tasty twist on a classic breakfast recipe makes a sweet surprise on any size Presto griddle! Coat slices of challah bread (or substitute with brioche or Italian) in our homemade vanilla batter, then fry them on the griddle. In only minutes, you’ll have bite-sized French Toast slices ready to serve. If made on the Griddle/Warmer Plus, you can keep them hot and fluffy until it’s time to eat, and even fill the tray with extra toppings like whipped cream, syrup, or jam!
Herbed or Peppered Hash Brown Patties
These flavorful homemade hashbrowns make for a filling side dish! This recipe tastes great with ham, sausage, or corned beef as traditional grated hashbrowns. Or, shape the shredded potato mixture into patties for breakfast sandwiches, burgers, or as a snack. Try with pepper for a spicy bite, or find a more savory flavor with the herb mix recipe.
Another anytime delight, this easy grilled cheese sandwich adds extra flavor and protein with sizzling bacon straight from the same Presto griddle. Enjoy as-is with the triple mix of provolone, cheddar, and Monterey jack cheeses, or substitute your own for
more variety. Subbing in Pepperjack adds more spice to this sandwich, alongside the oregano and basil that dress up the bread. You can also add lettuce and ripe tomatoes for an outstanding B.L.T. Try melting your favorite toppings and see which griddles the greatest!
