How do you preheat the platter and how long does it take?

I lay the steel part on the grill a few minutes. Then load the cooked food to it and slide the plastic part of the platter under it to carry to the table. A cast iron one like they use at restaurants would hold heat longer. But this one is easier to clean and doesn't rust.

You want to heat it slower than that.. It took me around 30 to 45 minutes on a propane burner. Then it must be reheated when it thickens.

No preheat needed, just add a little oil, load with food items, microwave for recommended time, and let set to finish cycle. It's been an amazing device for meat, fish, and poultry! I'm not a shill... just a well fed buyer, with a happy wife. ~Paulhttp://www.microhearth.com/index.cfm

That's where I use mine: I Pre-heat with both(or all) burners on high. Prep the pie in the iron. Put the iron on the rack directly over one of the burners, close the lid, reduce that burner to medium. I bake it that way 5 min per side. You'll have to adjust your technique to fit your grill. Mine is a very small grill.

I doubt you can preset a cooking time.Since I never had this need I never really looked for It but,I do believe that Is not an option.Just to be sure, I looked Into the manual and It's a definite no.Engineering fell asleep on that one. A preset timer Is a must with slow cookers.I guess they didn't think It was needed but It's a no on that one for sure.So long. :)

It takes about 12 minutes. 5 minutes for preheat and 7 for the burgers. Light will be yellowish orange for medium and it also beeps to let you know.

The manual does not answer this question, only saying it takes approximately 4 minutes to preheat. So, I timed the different phases this morning:Preheat: took 3 minutes 25 seconds (so, not far from what the book said)1st Waffle: 1 minute 25 seconds (the batter was put in and the lid closed before timer was started; lid closed and unit rotated was in the timing)2nd Waffle: 1 minutes 20 seconds (no additional preheating because the 2nd waffle followed the first)Hope this is what you wanted. I love the Waring Pro waffle maker. Works great, no sticking (as long as you follow the instructions). Any mix will work, but I did discover that to avoid sticking, you should have a little oil in the batter.

Not long at all for either. Plug it in and by the time you assembled te sandwich it is hot and ready. Maybe 3-5 minutes for warm up and maybe 5min for cooking.

The pan is ready to go, First heat it up plenty hot around 300 degrees, Then let cool down & wash in mild dish soap, I like to reheat to dry , It's ready to cook or you can just lightly coat with oil & put away for next time, I use Olive oil. Enjoy !

The pan comes pre-seasoned, but I normally add a thin coat of oil to entire inside of pan and heat it in the oven at 300 degrees F for about an hour. Also, do not "wash" this pan. Scrape and rinse only. Directions should come included in the box.

You need to let a pound cake sit on a wire rack for about 10 to 15 minutes before removing it from the pan. If you let it cool in the pan, it would likely get sweaty the longer it sat. Also, even though this is a non-stick pan you need to spray with "Bakers Joy" or grease the pan and dust it with flour. I use granulated sugar in place of the flour and it adds a touch of sweetness to the crust. Hope this helps.

I have never preheated it. On non-frozen meat it takes about two and a half minutes to score the meat, then the other side is almost immediate. I think it actually says you shouldn't put it in empty.

I have had mine for a couple years now, I have never ever preheated it. I use it mostly for soup and spaghetti

I think it's like 10 min, not for sure. I used a microwave steamer, steamer bag or the dishwasher. I didn't have time to wait around for water to boil etc.

I would put the teapot, already with the hot tea in it, on the plate, then turn it on. I use a standard ceramic pot purchased from a crockery store. That way, the plate's job is only to maintain the existing heat. I would not leave it there for more than half an hour. Nothing worse that stewed tea. If you do this, take the teabags out first.Brew tea for only 3-4 mins.

The instructions were on my box. They say to heat oven to 375 degrees and cookbetween 10 and 15 minutes. We had to buy thinner tortillas, by the way. And we also had to make several tries to get just the correct cook time, but they eventualy turned out just right.
