Highlights
Quality
Using the broil setting , i preheat it in the foodi for 15 mins, throw in a steak and get an amazing result cooked on the cast iron.
Heavy, cast iron, good quality, great value, would purchase again
After a few rounds of seasoning and carefully preheating, this smasher was decently non-stick for burger smashing.
It literally gets 'too hot to handle!
Price
Was looking for a cheap burger smasher.
