Cuisinart GR-300WS Removable Grill Plates
With reversible plates, the superior SearBlast features locking flavor into steaks at 500˚F, and a top cover that is fully adjustable, cooking is perfectly customized and precise every time. The dishwasher-safe nonstick grill plates are also conveniently removable for easy clean-up after even the gooiest, cheesiest sandwich or sticky barbecue sauce. The heating element is built into the plates. And they are heavy (weight-wise) too. I’d also say they are solid for good thermal conduction as air is not as good conduction of heat as is a solid internal surface would be. Each plate has its own label to tell you which side it should be on when you’re cooking.
The Cuisinart GR-300ws has a flat top and bottom plate. It has dual floating top and bottom heating plates. They are designed with a nonstick surface to make it easier for grilling sandwiches, English muffins, and paninis. The stainless steel housing is made from scratch-resistant steel for durability. Instead of using the ridged grill plates, you can also use the bottom or top plate for grilled sandwiches, paninis, or English muffins and get them nicely browned and crispy.
Dual Zone Temperate Control
This unit comes with dual-zone temperature control as a feature in the cooktop that lets you set a timer and the temperature, meaning you can griddle an egg on one plate while grilling bacon on the other across a generous 240 square inches of cooking surface. Its two heating elements warm up quickly and there is a temperature display and an audible beep when the preset temperature is reached. Cooking surfaces heat up evenly and it’s nice to set the temperature for both top and bottom plates.
Searing
Cuisinart’s GR-300WS gives you the ability to sear at 500˚FF for up to two minutes at a time with reversible plates, adding flavor right from the start. This searing feature is complemented by SearBlast which locks in flavor with its high-temperature locking mechanism, perfect for steak lovers everywhere! With this Cuisinart model’s adjustable top cover, you are able to customize your cooking experience every time around.
Cuisinart GR-300WS is the perfect appliance for quick-cooking like making a quick sandwich. The plates on this model warm up rapidly, like other Cuisinart Griddlers. Preheating time – Fairly quick to 350, longer to sear (500). Add extra time if preheating in the open position. Works great for making a quick sandwich or eggs with toast!
Six Height Settings
The Cuisinart GR-300WS has height control settings to avoid crushing a sandwich. It has a floating lid so you can press on the meat or fix the opening at the preset heights. You can adjust the height to accommodate the thickness of food you are cooking with its 17 3/4″ maximum with lid up, and 7 3/4″ maximum with the lid closed. The floating hinge is a stair-step latch on the right side that shifts into the level you want to be based on the height of the food item.
