INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the Cuisinart™ Grill & Griddle.
This product is the ultimate kitchen appliance, with a large 18” (45cm)
reversible, nonstick plate that makes it two appliances in one.
The cooking plate has been designed with an internal heating element
for even heat transfer while cooking. Use the grill surface to evenly grill
poultry, meats, seafood, vegetables and much more. Or flip the cooking
plate to the griddle surface and set the electric thermostat to perfectly
cook pancakes, eggs, hash browns or toasted cheese sandwiches.
BEFORE THE FIRST USE:
Remove all packaging materials and any promotional labels or
stickers from your grill. Be sure all parts (listed above, Parts and
Features) of your new appliance have been included before
discarding any packaging materials. You may want to keep the box
and packing materials for use at a later date.
Before using your Cuisinart™ Grill & Griddle for the first time, remove
any dust from shipping by wiping the base and temperature control
with a damp cloth. Thoroughly clean both sides of the cooking plate,
drip tray and scraping tool. The cooking plate can be submerged
in water for cleaning. The drip tray and scraping tool are
dishwasher safe.

perature level. The indicator light will illuminate to indicate that the
power is on. It may take 10-12 minutes to reach operating tempera-
ture, depending on the temperature level that has been set. When the
thermostat has reached the desired temperature, the indicator light will
turn off, indicating that the Grill & Griddle is ready for cooking.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Place base on a clean, flat surface where you intend to cook.
2. One end of the base has a slot provided
for the drip tray. Slide the drip tray into
the base. (see figure A.)
During operation, the light will continue to turn on and off as the
thermostat regulates the temperature. This is normal.
A.
B.
3. The cooking plate has two sides:
The Grill side with ribbed surface is
intended for grilling steaks, hamburgers,
chicken, seafood and vegetables.
(see figure B.) The Griddle side with smooth
surface is perfect for frying bacon and
eggs, pancakes, French toast and toasted
sandwiches. (see figure C.) Choose the side
you intend to cook on and place the
cooking plate on the base with the chosen
side facing up. Make sure that the drip
holes in the cooking plate line up over
the drip tray.
The temperature control is used to set and maintain the temperature
of the cooking surface. Temperatures range from about 150°F (66°C)
on the Warm setting to 450°F (232°C) on the Sear Setting. You may
vary the setting of the control knob at any time during cooking, and
may wish to do so, depending on the types of foods on the cooking
plate. Refer to the Cooked Food Temperature Chart on page 5 for
recommendations.
CAUTION: Handles will become hot during use. The cooking plate
should not be removed from the base or flipped over while hot.
Allow unit to cool down for at least 30 minutes before handling.
C.
D.
The Grill & Griddle has a built-in safety feature that prevents the unit
from operating when the cooking plate is not on the base. If the cook-
ing plate is removed from the base while in use, the power will shut off.
4. Insert the temperature control probe into
the socket in the cooking plate on the
end opposite the drip holes. It will click
into place. (see figure D.)
NOTE: The first time you use your Grill & Griddle, it may have a slight
odour and smoke a bit. This is normal and common to appliances with
a nonstick surface.
5. Plug the cord into a standard electrical outlet.
To flip over to use reverse side
of plate:
1. Turn temperature control knob to
OFF setting.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
Once the Grill & Griddle is assembled properly and you are ready
to begin cooking, turn the temperature control knob to the desired tem-
2. Unplug appliance from wall outlet.
3. Pull out temperature control probe from cooking plate.

4. Allow unit to cool down completely.
Use the cleaning/scraping tool to remove any leftover food from
the cooking plate. The scraping tool can be washed by hand or
in the dishwasher.
5. Carefully slide out the drip tray and dispose of its contents. Clean
tray and replace in base. (see Cleaning and Care)
If you have been cooking seafood, wipe the cooking plate with lemon
juice to prevent seafood flavour from transferring to the next recipe.
6. Thoroughly clean cooking plate. (see Cleaning and Care)
7. Hold cooking plate by the handles when removing from base,
flipping plate over, and returning to base.
Hold cooking plate by handles when removing. The cooking plate can
be washed by hand, using a soft sponge or cloth and hot water. The
cooking plate may be submerged in water, but DO NOT wash in the
dishwasher. Do not use metallic objects such as knives or forks for
cleaning. Do not use a scouring pad for cleaning. The nonstick
coating can be damaged.
8. Make sure that holes in plate line up over drip tray.
9. Reconnect the temperature control and plug the cord into a
standard electrical outlet.
User Maintenance:
The temperature control can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
Never submerge the temperature control or plug in water.
Do not place it in a dishwasher. Wipe it clean with a damp cloth.
• Never use metal utensils, as they will scratch the nonstick grill plate.
Instead, use only wooden or heat-proof plastic utensils.
• Never leave plastic utensils in contact with the hot grill plate.
The housing base can be wiped clean with a soft, dry cloth. For tough
stains, dampen cloth. Never use an abrasive cleaner or harsh pad.
• After using, scrape excess food buildup through holes and into drip
tray, then wipe off any residue with a paper towel before proceeding
with next recipe.
STORAGE
Always dry and assemble the grill (without controller) before storing.
Ensure that the base, cooking plate and drip tray are correctly positioned.
CLEANING AND CARE
CAUTION: BEFORE CLEANING APPLIANCE, MAKE SURE IT
HAS COOLED DOWN COMPLETELY.

Tips & Hints for Using the
Medium
Well-done
Cuisinart™ Grill & Griddle
• Trim excess fats from meat before grilling/griddling.
• Do not press down on meats, poultry or seafood when
grilling/griddling – this will press out the juices, which keep the
texture of the meat moist and tender.
COOKED FOOD TEMPERATURE CHART
Check internal temperature, using an instant read thermometer.
• To create a “diamond” pattern on meats and fish when grilling, brush
or pat item lightly with olive oil. Cook on the first side without turning,
for 2 to 3 minutes. Then rotate 45 degrees (a quarter turn) and cook
for 2 to 3 minutes longer or until that side is done. Repeat the
procedure for the second side.
Beef
The USDA recommends cooking all ground beef to at least
Medium (160°F/71°C) doneness, or until centre is no longer pink.
Pork
Always grill using an instant read thermometer until the internal
temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) when tested.
• Firm fleshed fish can be cooked directly on either the Grill or Griddle
surface. Smaller items such as shrimp or scallops can be skewered
if desired (if using wooden skewers, soak first to prevent burning).
Poultry
• For the best burgers, handle the meat as little as possible. Press
5 to 6 ounces (150-175g) lean ground meat into 4-inch (10cm)
rounds – a large round cookie cutter makes a good template. Grill,
then season with salt and pepper to taste.
Boneless poultry breast should be cooked to an internal temperature
of 170°F (77°C).
Ground poultry should be cooked to an internal temperature of
165-170°F (74-77°C).
(The Cuisinart™ Grill & Griddle is not recommended for cooking bone-in poultry.)
• The Grill can be used to grill foods other than meats. Grilled Garlic
Bread or “Texas” Toast can be made by brushing melted butter
seasoned with garlic and herbs on thickly sliced artisan breads, then
grilling until golden brown. Vegetables can be grilled as an entrée or
side dish, and fruits can be grilled for desserts. Firm tofu can also be
marinated and grilled.
Seafood
Fin Fish – Cook until opaque and easily flaked with a fork.
Scallops – Cook until opaque and firm.
Shrimp – Cook until shrimp turn orange/red and flesh is
pearly opaque.
• The Griddle is the perfect appliance for preparing Grilled Cheese
Sandwiches for a group. Using 2 slices per sandwich of your
favourite bread, lightly brush one side of each slice with melted
butter or olive oil, add your favourite fillings, and “Grill” on the
Griddle side, preheated to Medium High. Turn when toasty, crisp
and deep golden, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Bacon
Cook bacon until crispy to taste.
Hot Dogs/Smoked Sausages
Although they are “precooked”, we recommend cooking hot dogs and
smoked sausages until the internal temperature is 165°F (74°C) when
tested with an instant read thermometer.

• If preparing a complete breakfast using the Griddle for a crowd,
cook meats first and keep them warm in a Low (200°F/93°C) oven
after draining. Then cook hash browns, pancakes or French toast;
keep warm in low oven on a rack placed over a baking sheet. Lastly,
prepare and cook eggs.
Combine the olive oil, herbs and garlic in a small bowl. Let stand while
preparing the vegetables.
• To prepare bacon, place the bacon strips on the cold Griddle.
Heat to Medium-High, and cook until desired crispiness is reached,
turning once or twice while cooking.
Cut the eggplant in 1/2-inch (1.25cm) slices, sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon (2ml)
salt and place in a colander to drain. Cut the red/yellow peppers into flat slabs.
Cut the onions into 1/2-inch (1.25cm) thick slices; slide a toothpick or short
wooden skewer into the slice horizontally (this will help to hold it together while
grilling). Cut the zucchini and yellow squash into 1/2-inch (1.25cm) thick slices.
Cut the Portobello mushrooms into 1/2-inch (1.25cm) thick slices.
• Simplify chopping and blending tasks while preparing the following
recipes, by using a Cuisinart® Food Processor, Chopper/Grinder
or Blender.
Preheat the Grill side to High.
RECIPES FOR THE GRILL:
Grilled Vegetable Salad
Makes about 8 cups (1.9L)
Rinse and dry the eggplant slices. Brush all vegetables lightly with the
seasoned olive oil mix – there will be oil mixture left over.
Grill the vegetables on both sides until tender and nicely marked:
Eggplant – about 6-8 minutes per side; peppers – about 8-10 minutes per side;
onions – about 5-7 minutes per side; squashes – about 6-8 minutes per side;
and Portobellos – about 4-5 minutes per side. As the vegetables are done, let
cool slightly on a prep board. When cool enough to handle (but still warm), cut
into 1-inch (2.5cm) pieces and transfer to a large bowl. When all vegetables
have been grilled and cut, toss gently to combine. Add the vinegar (to taste),
olives, parsley, sun-dried tomatoes, and capers; toss gently to combine.
Season with remaining 1/2 teaspoon (2ml) salt and pepper; toss gently to
combine. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Just before serving,
sprinkle with toasted pine nuts if desired.

Preheat the Grill side to High setting. Arrange the turkey burgers evenly
spaced on the Grill. Grill for 6 to 7 minutes per side, until internal temperature
reaches 165°F (74°C) when tested with an instant read thermometer. It is
important to cook ground turkey (or chicken) to this temperature, but do not
overcook – it will dry out.
Preheat Grill side to Sear. When Grill is hot (indicator light will go out) arrange
the fillets evenly spaced on the Grill. Grill on each side for 3 minutes. Lower
the heat to High and continue to cook for another 4 to 8 minutes on each side,
depending on preference for doneness – less time for rare and more time for
well done. For a cross-hatch grill pattern on the meat, turn the meat 45° when
placing it on the grill after turning over. (Note: this type of beef has more
flavour and better texture when cooked rare to medium.) Let meat rest for 5
to 10 minutes before serving.
Serve with Cranberry Mustard. Turkey Burgers can be served alone, or are
delicious when served on grilled whole wheat buns or sour dough rolls.

Grilled Fresh Pineapple makes a wonderful base for dessert – just add a
scoop of vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt. You may drizzle it with a little rum
or liqueur and add a sprinkling of chopped toasted nuts for a Grilled Pineapple
Sundae.
Place the herbes de Provence, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Stir to blend;
reserve.
Using a sharp knife, cut a horizontal slit in the side of a fillet, then carefully cut
into the centre of the fillet to create a pocket – do not cut all the way through to
the sides. Repeat for each fillet. Place one tablespoon (15ml) of the cheese in
each pocket – press the open sides together tightly. Drizzle the fillets with the
olive oil and rub in to coat completely and evenly. Sprinkle the fillets on both
sides with the herb mixture and press mixture on. Refrigerate for 20 to 30
minutes before grilling. (Fillets may be prepared up to 8 hours ahead and
refrigerated.)

1/2
3
cups (500ml) reduced fat milk
cup (125ml) part-skim ricotta cheese
tablespoons (45ml) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
cup (125ml) oatmeal (regular or quick oats)
cup (125ml) yellow cornmeal
tablespoons (45ml) powdered buttermilk* (do not add liquid)
tablespoon (15ml) brown sugar
1
Preheat the Griddle side to Medium.
1
tablespoon (15ml) baking powder
teaspoon (5ml) salt
Toss blueberries in 1 tablespoon (15ml) of the flour; reserve. Place the
remaining flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt in a large bowl
and stir to combine.
1
2
tablespoons (30ml) melted butter, cooled slightly
In a smaller bowl, combine the egg yolks, milk, ricotta cheese and unsalted
butter; reserve. Beat the egg whites until they are stiff but not dry. With a spoon,
stir the liquid mixture into the dry mixture until blended. Stir about one fourth of
the beaten egg whites into the batter to lighten, then gently fold in the remaining
egg whites, using a rubber spatula. Gently stir in the reserved blueberries.
Preheat the Griddle side to Medium.
Place the eggs, milk, and yogurt in a small bowl and whisk to blend until
smooth; reserve.
Place the flours, oatmeal, cornmeal, buttermilk powder, brown sugar, baking
powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir with a whisk to blend. Add the
egg/milk mixture and stir until just blended. Stir in the melted, cooled butter.
Do not overmix.
Using a 1/4-cup (50ml) measure/ladle, pour batter for six pancakes onto the
preheated Griddle. Cook for 2-1/2 to 3 minutes, until bubbles form on the sur-
face, then flip the pancakes over, using a heatproof nonstick spatula. Cook on
the other side until golden brown and fluffy, about 2-1/2 to 3 minutes. Transfer
to warm plates to serve. As you finish each batch of pancakes, you can keep
them warm on a wire rack placed on a baking sheet in a low oven (200°F /
93°C). Repeat until all the batter is used.
Using a quarter cup (50ml) measure, drop batter evenly spaced (six pancakes
fit very nicely) onto the preheated griddle. Cook pancakes until bubbles form,
about 2 to 2-1/2 minutes; flip and cook until done, about 2 to 2-1/2 minutes
longer. Transfer to warm plates to serve. As you finish each batch of pancakes,
you can keep them warm on a wire rack placed on a baking sheet in a low
oven (200°F - 93°C). Repeat until all the batter is used.
Serve with warmed maple syrup.
