Great Price Norpro 1400 for $5.04

Norpro Cast Iron Bacon Grill Press Review



It's heavy as it should be, the handle is not designed weird and doesn't cause you to burn youself, and it does it's job. I don't eat bacon much, but I use it for grilled sandwitches and other foods I want to press down. It's cast iron, so you don't put it in the dishwasher and need to keep a light coat of oil on it at all times. For those who had problems cleaning it I don't know what to say. Yes, there are small areas to get into... but I clean as I use it, so it's never been a problem.

Norpro Cast Iron Bacon Grill Press Overview


Even the best cut bacon can curl, making it difficult to cook evenly. The cast iron bacon press flattens the bacon, keeping it's shape for even cooking and the wooden handle stays cool while the press is in use. To speed up the process, pre-heat the press.


Norpro Cast Iron Bacon Grill Press Specifications


Bacon curls while frying, making it difficult to cook evenly. Long ago, cooks found a simple solution to this problem: hold bacon to its proper shape by flattening it with a heavy, cast-iron press. Norpro's press hews to that tradition. It's made of traditional cast iron and has a wooden handle that stays cool while the press is in use. For speeding up the bacon-frying process, the press can be preheated--also preheat it when you're flattening hamburgers, grilled sandwiches, or quesadillas. Season the press by coating it with oil and heating it for 20 minutes; after cleaning it in soapy water, it should also be lightly coated with vegetable oil to prevent rust. --Fred Brack

Insufficient product information - Noname -
Amazon does not provide enough information about this Press. I do not like this press because it is too large for my 10" frying pan and Amazon do not provide dimensions. Now I have to make a decision to either go through the hastle of returning it, or grinding off the corners.
Secondly, I expected the Press had a smooth bottom from the picture shown. I didn't realize until the item arrived that there is a second picture showing the "Bacon Press" bottom that is not readily apparent.
Thirdly, the product box does not show the manufacturer's address or contact information which is usually a RED flag that a product is second rate.



Come on people! - T. Dascoli - Staten Island, N.Y.
I have owned this very same bacon press for several years and it works fine. There are people complaining that the press is too short for the length of the strips of bacon. CUT THE STRIPS IN HALF! You still get a nice size strip of bacon about the same size that you would get in most any Waffel/pancake joint. Too hard to clean you say? How about wrapping everything below the handle with a piece of aluminum foil. This is not rocket science here! Jeezus people.



Wonderful! - C. Pope - Inglewood, CA
Using it mostly on Sauages...cause my turkey bacon isn't thick enough. Works Wonderfully! I'm so glad I got it.
