desired doneness.

preheated grill plates. Cook for about 4 to 6 mins per side, depending on the
thickness of the steaks and desired doneness.

to the closed position, or 8 to 10 mins per side in the Flat position. (Internal
temperature should be 175˚F—juices will run clear with no signs of pink.

remaining, carefully open upper plate, place a piece of cheese on top of the
burgers, and move the upper plate so that it’s right above the cheeseburger, but
not touching it. Cook until cheese is just melted.

(turning halfway through) in the Closed position, depending on the thickness of
the sausages.

side, add the eggs to the preheated griddle plate and cook for 2 to 3 mins per
side. At that time, the steaks should be done as well.
