Can I grill boneless filet of chicken? salmon?

You can cook anything that would cook in a frying pan on top of the stove. With scrambled eggs you have to keep moving the eggs until they start to thicken up or they will run and spread out . We have made quesadillas on it and they turned out very good.

My wife said she would not as it has no cover. Grease, butter would splatter, unless you could find a cover of some sort or splatter guard that would fit. Does that help?

yes, I grill the chicken all the time. Don't know about grilled salmon, it doesn't agree with my digestion, but I don't see why not. I cook almost everything except the very rare steak on the griddle. Be sure to find an all-purpose cover because all meat spatters.

I've tried it with salmon and it didn't work very well. Like the previous comment, not great for that since there is no cover to stop grease spatter. I mainly use for eggs, bacon and pancakes. Works great for that.

Never tried a chicken. Steaks and shis-kabobs. Looks like the rotisserie would work well though.

You can cook gravy. The grease channel is just a little dip along one side of the grill where liquid can pool. I used mine to make a pot roast, a big pan of scrambled eggs, etc.

I have been able to cook some very good salmon, tilapia, and red snapper on this griddle--as for "meats," that's pretty general, but I would say yes to THIN meats. In other words, you probably wouldn't want to try to sear a roast on this, but for mostly thin meats (chicken strips, bacon, thin flank steak, ect) it should be perfectly capable. As for shipping, I have no idea.

I believe so. We haven't used it for meat yet, but it's pretty sturdy so far! I'd probably suggest boneless chicken strips/pieces to be more efficient.

I have grilled only filets, will never grill a whole fish. It served it's purpose, however, one has to be extremely careful when handling this basket (use grill mitts) due to the high temps. I was using pot holders and didn't adequately cover my hand, I burned my thumb when it slipped off the pot holder.

Absolutely. I fry chicken, fish, chicken fried steak, and I make French fries in it. I also use in on a lower temp to make meatloaf, chicken and rice, and beef and noodles. (Now I'm hungry).

I do breaded fish, garlic bread, chicken strips.. basically anything you would put in the oven, you can do on this. (really nice in the summer when you don't want to heat up the house with the oven!)

The grill is for raw or marinated meats. Veggies stir fried but no sauces or liquids are suggested

Cooked meat yes.chicken. Maybe raw too but ugh, how to clean that. You can surely chop chick! Good luck.

I would say that yes you could - in theory. I have noticed that the enamel (?) chips off pretty easily. I think the grill might really annoy it. Hunt around and find an old NON-LODGE deep skillet with lid in just plain cast iron and you'' never have that problem. I hate the Lodge finish.

Spray the grates with vegetable oil and fire up the grill.The grates will be fine.This is the best grill I've ever owned.Tonight,I grilled corn,onions,baby back ribs and hamburgers.I love it.

You can, but there is no lip so grease would just run off the sides. I use cast iron skillets on my grill for meat.

Pancakes, yes. Eggs, yes but you need the heat hot enough that the whites form up immediately. Bacon, I wouldn't recommend this vs using a wire rack when using the grill. You'll have a greasy mess with bacon on this mat.

I suppose you could if you really wanted to but it won't be necessary to get the pan clean. Before I grill something like steak or chops I will spray a little Pam on the surface of the pan. If food grade silicone is not your thing then an oil of your choice would be fine. When you are finished cooking pour a little water on the pan and let the pan cool. The food will loosen up and you can rinse it away with warm water without damaging the nonstick surface. Even modern cast iron needs a chance to build up a good seasoned coating. If you wash it with soap and hot water each time it doesn't have a chance to season. I suppose you could if you really wanted to but it won't be necessary to get the pan clean.

I have purchased wood boards from home depot (specifically for smoking food) and cooked fish and chicken on them and they do a great job. I LOVE this grill BTW and I am on may second year with it.

I believe you can, I have not needed to. I use the grill for motorhome when we travel and love it's versatility. I can cook hot dogs, hamburgers, and on the griddle side I can cook pancakes, eggs, bacon, etc. That is all I need to give my wife a break from doing all the cooking while we travel.
