Contact Grills & Panini Grills: Create Delicious Grilled Sandwiches and More

Contact grills, also known as panini grills, are versatile cooking appliances that allow you to create a variety of delicious grilled sandwiches, paninis, and other grilled dishes with ease. These grills are perfect for cafes, bistros, sandwich shops, and other food establishments looking to offer hot and crispy grilled options. Here's what you need to know about contact grills and panini grills:

1. Design and Construction:

Contact grills typically feature a clamshell design with two heated plates that come together to cook the food from both sides simultaneously. The plates are often made of cast iron or non-stick materials like Teflon for even heat distribution and easy cleaning. Look for grills with sturdy and durable construction to withstand regular use in a commercial kitchen.

2. Temperature Control:

Temperature control is an essential feature of contact grills. Look for grills with adjustable temperature settings, allowing you to achieve the desired level of browning and cooking for different types of sandwiches and ingredients. Some grills have individual controls for the top and bottom plates, providing more precise heat management.

3. Ribbed or Flat Plates:

Contact grills come with either ribbed or flat plates. Ribbed plates create grill marks and add a distinctive look to sandwiches, while flat plates are ideal for achieving even and consistent heating. Consider the type of food you'll be grilling and the desired aesthetics when choosing between ribbed and flat plates.

4. Size and Capacity:

Contact grills come in various sizes, ranging from compact countertop models to larger freestanding units. Consider the volume of sandwiches you'll be preparing and the available space in your kitchen when choosing the appropriate size. If you have limited space, countertop contact grills are a convenient option.

5. Ease of Cleaning:

Look for contact grills with removable plates or grill surfaces for easy cleaning. Some models feature non-stick surfaces that make food residue less likely to stick, simplifying the cleaning process. Consider grills with removable drip trays or grease collection systems to catch excess grease and prevent it from dripping onto the countertop.

6. Versatility:

While contact grills are commonly used for sandwiches and paninis, many models offer versatile cooking options. Some grills have adjustable height settings, allowing you to grill thicker items like burgers or chicken breasts. Look for grills that can also function as open grills, allowing you to cook steaks, vegetables, or even desserts.

7. Safety Features:

Prioritize safety features when choosing a contact grill. Look for grills with heat-resistant handles and controls to prevent burns. Some models have an automatic shut-off feature or timers for added safety and convenience.

By investing in a high-quality contact grill or panini grill, you can expand your menu offerings and create delicious grilled sandwiches and more. Consider your specific needs, available space, and desired features to choose the right contact grill for your business. With a reliable and versatile contact grill, you can satisfy your customers' cravings for hot and tasty grilled treats.
