INTRODUCTION  
Congratulations on your purchase of the CuisinartGrill & 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 CuisinartGrill & 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.  
Store the temperature control in a safe place. Do not knock or drop  
the probe, as this can cause damage.  
Once you have finished cooking, allow the unit to cool down  
completely and then turn the temperature control knob to the OFF  
setting. Unplug the appliance from wall outlet and remove the  
temperature control probe from cooking plate.  
Carefully slide the drip tray out from the base and dispose of its  
contents. The drip tray can be cleaned by hand or in the dishwasher.

Tips & Hints for Using the  
Medium  
Well-done  
CuisinartGrill & 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 CuisinartGrill & 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.

Scrape sides of jar; pulse 5 times.  
Five minutes before grilling, preheat the Grill side to High. When Grill is hot  
and chicken has finished marinating, drain the chicken. Arrange the chicken on  
the hot Grill, spacing evenly. Grill for 5 to 6 minutes on each side.  
Add remaining ingredients in order given. Blend for 20 seconds. Transfer to a  
resealable container and let stand for 30 minutes before using to allow flavours to  
develop. Unused portions may be refrigerated for up to a week. Stir before using.

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.

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.)

Preheat the Griddle side to Medium.  
1
tablespoon (15ml) baking powder  
teaspoon (5ml) salt

remaining flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt in a large bowl  
and stir to combine.

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.

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.
