FAQs
Can I put the Weber Griddle Press in the dishwasher?
No, the press is not dishwasher safe. The harsh environment of a dishwasher will strip the seasoning and cause the cast iron to rust.
Does the press come pre-seasoned?
It is recommended to apply a light coat of oil and season the press before its first use to ensure the best non-stick performance.
What is the handle made of?
The handle is constructed from cast iron as part of the unified, durable design of the tool.
Can this be used on an indoor stovetop?
Yes, the press is compatible with any heat source where a griddle or skillet can be used, including indoor stovetops.
How many strips of bacon can I press at once?
The press is designed to cover up to four strips of bacon at once, ensuring they cook flat and evenly.
Why is the bottom surface textured?
The textured design is specifically engineered to help lift food cleanly off the griddle and prevent excess sticking during the cooking process.
Troubleshooting
Food is sticking to the bottom of the press
Ensure the press is properly seasoned with a layer of oil and verify that the press is hot before placing it on the food.
The press is showing signs of rust
Scrub the rusted area with a stiff brush or steel wool, wash with mild soap, dry completely, and apply a thin layer of cooking oil before heating it on the grill to re-season.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Weber Griddle Press in peak condition, proper care is essential. Since it is made of raw cast iron, it is not dishwasher safe and should never be soaked in water, as this will lead to rust. After each use, wash the press by hand using warm water and a mild detergent, dry it thoroughly immediately with a towel, and apply a light coating of cooking oil to protect the surface before storing it in a dry place. The press is compatible with most standard griddles and cast iron skillets. Before the first use, ensure you check the surface; if the seasoning has faded over time, you can refresh it by coating the press in oil and heating it in your grill or oven.
