Despite the fact that the Cuisinart brand is known for its versatile electric griddlers (like the Cuisinart GR-4N griddler), the company also manufactures non electric griddles like the Cuisinart Green Gourmet double burner griddle. Obviously, this specific model is designed to be used on a stove top and it includes some features that could appeal to consumers that are looking for ‘green’ products. For example, its nonstick coating is both petroleum free and PTFE/PFOA free as well.

Non-Electric Grills / Griddles
Unlike many other nonstick grills that are not made of cast iron, the Lodge grilling pan is much heavier and can also maintain the heat a lot better. The Lodge Logic L8SGP3 pre-seasoned square grill pan cannot be used as a griddle, only as a pan grill – and therefore it is a different product when compared to the bigger Lodge Logic LPG13 cast iron griddle/grill. You can find more details about the Lodge square grill pan in this review.
One kitchen appliance that is quite popular recently is the Lodge Logic LPG13 Pro 20-by-10-7/16-inch cast iron grill/griddle. Many people say that they are happy with this cast iron griddle, and one shouldn’t be surprised from it. It’s large, nonstick if you season it and maintain it, not very expensive and can even be taken for camping. Of course, this Lodge griddle is not perfect and this unit may not fit some electric coils and gas stoves. For more information about this reversible grill/griddle you can read this review of the LPG13 model.
The Cuisinart GreenGourmet cookware products are probably greener than most other kitchen appliances including other griddles and grills, but this doesn’t mean than these units are better at cooking. At a first glance, the Cuisinart GreenGourmet eco friendly 11 inch square grill pan looks like an interesting grilling pan that might be worth a try. For more information about how well does this Cuisinart grill pan perform, check out this review.
One of the more popular grill pans in the market is the design of All Clad. Since this company is known for producing high quality kitchen appliances, including grills and griddles, so you would normally expect the All Clad LTD grill pan to deliver good results as well. This All Clad grille pan does offer a lot of advantages and it’s also not as expensive as most of the other All Clad designs, but does it mean that the pan is worth the money? Read the review and decide on your own.
Another popular stove top grilling pan in the market is the Calphalon square grill pan. Despite the fact that this kitchen appliance is made of pure aluminum it’s still able to distribute the heat across its surface fairly good, but there is no doubt that the Calphalon company should have designed the Calphalon square grill pan a bit better. So, how hard is it to clean this unit? Does it grill the food the way that you would like it to? For more information read this review of the Calphalon contemporary nonstick 11 inch square grill pan.
