Product Description:
Short on time? Handy press will cook your bacon in half the time.
Amazon.com Review:
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

Rating:  - Embossed design on bottom prevents proper cleaning!
Someone didn't think things through on this.There's a "Bacon Press" design on the bottom surface that has all sorts of irregular nooks and crannies, it's a pain in the behind to clean.The round bacon press by Norpro is much better (though a bit big for some situations) because the bottom surface is just ridged to give that striped "grilled look".
I don't know why that design is not on the top surface instead of on the bottom.Just plain dumb.
Rating:  - Only 6 1/2" in length
It is only 6 1/2" in length.I thought it would be longer since bacon is cut approx. 10" so you have to keep moving it around.The weight is good.
Rating:  - Simple to use, but only one use
I wouldn't fry bacon without my Bacon Press or even a hamburger, but that's all it does, with the possible exception of being used as a door stop.Seriously, I like it for what it does, makes my bacon flat and fully cooked.
Rating: - dimensions wrong
I was looking for a larger press and thought I had found one. The dimensions stae this is 11.25 inches. It is only about 6 inches long, so I had to send it back. Now I am out shippng charges!
Rating: - Not bad
Everytime we would cook a big weekend breakfast, I would remember the grill presses from when I was a kid and mutter to myself that I needed one.Saw it here at Amazon and decided to give it a try.
Pros - It works just like I remembered.It holds the bacon down and keeps it flat while cooking.This produces a very consistently cooked piece of meat, which is what I was looking for.We prefer our bacon crispy, but not overcooked, and this does a fine job.If you like crisp bacon ... Read More
