How do you choose a contact grill?

Ask yourself the following questions before you choose a contact grill:

• Want to you want to prepare?
• How large should the contact grill be?
• How much power do you need?
• Which extra functions do you want?

You can prepare various dishes on a contact grill. You can grill red meat and vegetables on a ribbed grill plate. If you want to prepare fish or shellfish, you can use the smooth grill plate. In addition, it's healthier to grill with a contact grill. That's because you use little to no oil. Some contact grills include various replaceable grill plates. So you can grill meat and vegetables, but you can also make a delicious croque monsieur, Belgian waffles, or pancakes on the other grill plates.

There are various contact grill types and sizes. It's important to determine how many people you want to grill. Do you occasionally want to grill meat or vegetables? Go for a compact grill. Do you often have visitors or a large family? Choose a contact grill that allows you to grill multiple ingredients at the same time. This gives you more space on the grill plate and ensures there's enough space between your pieces of meat, for example.

The amount of power you need for your contact grill depends on the dishes you want to prepare. Do you only want to use the contact grill t grill vegetables or make a croque monsieur? A contact grill with 1000W of power is enough. Want to grill red meats as well? Choose a contact grill with 1500W of power. This way, you can be sure you'll get a crispy and tender grill result.
