Does this work when seperating grease from ground beef. and other meats besides bacon?

would work fine for that but would have to be a very small amount of meat. the container is only about 6 inches across. this is more for after you have already removed the meat from a pan and then straining the grease into the jar for later use. This is why it refers to bacon more than any other because that is a grease you might save and cook with compared to beef.

This product is for draining grease from pan after frying. It separates grease from bits left in grease after frying so the grease saved is clear. Strainer not large enough to use with meat. You need a collander for that

If you have this griddle on level ground, the grease will run into the tray. The tray is a bit small, and we sometimes wire up a 15 oz. can to catch the grease.

We experimented and fried some bacon and used this product...the fried bacon was crispy and greasy, the microwaved bacon was crispy and not greasy. Both I and a friend are in LOVE with this product....no splatters, no greasy clean-up, just simply pour grease into a container. Only drawback is you can't cook as much bacon at once....and I found for a full rack 5 - 6 minutes perfect. NO, this bacon is not limpy! I highly recommend it and so thankful my friend found it in a catalog. If you have any further questions...let me know.

Steak is possible I would think. I haven't tried. No place for the bacon to drain, so I wouldn't even try. The name tells what it is designed for: grilled sandwiches or french toast. Anything much beyond that you should go for a Foreman Grill or other multitasker appliance.

It might work.... if you can keep the strainer warm. Grease seems to harden while draining. Pressing the meat with a spoon, I'm going to try that.....

I used it for hotdogs and chicken breasts- the upside of using this is that your grease gets funnel out.

One of the reviewers says something to the effect of just dumping it out at the end. So yes the bacon grease should go into the bottom part for you to keep or get rid of at your discretion.

Sorry, I've never tried regular bacon on it (I buy the fully cooked kind because I hate dealing with all the grease of regular bacon) but my guess is that while it would keep the bacon nice and flat and cook both sides at once, the "wells" for the grease would overflow unless you were just cooking 2-3 slices. Love my little Griddler; use it for so many things.

No. This is to use in the oven inside a baking sheet. It stops your food from sitting in grease while it cook. It's hard to clean after.

we only got to use it once so far-grilled pork chops. Put the grill on our island and had no problems with grease and pork chops were delicious

I've never tried it but I don't see why it wouldn't. I've used it to ground cubes of beef for making burgers and it came out good.

I have never pressed bacon with it (yet) but used it for bison burgers, grilled chicken, beef burgers and grilled veggies..I love it! ! I actually purchased 2 so I can grill for 2 people at once

Pretty shallow. I would not fry bacon in it unless you only made a few at a time. The grease will need to be emptied quite a bit.

Yes . It works great for items that a meant to be fried but cooks with any need for oil and taste good.. I try this with French fries and taste great without the oil.. Works great on chicken, Pork chops, mozzarella sticks and chicken tenders.

yes it cooks it out of the grease, I will tell you though I love the pan, the only thing that is a little annoying is I use ground beef which has more fat, my sides of the meatloaf sometimes stick. I have remedy though, I spray the pan and insert with non stick cooking spray. It is much better now. My husband said this pan has brought him back to eating meatloaf.

I use it on everything greasy. My oven grills, the floor at the restaurant kitchen. Also, we had a fire and everything was covered in smoke and this cleaned everything. Just make sure you wear long rubber gloves and do not breath the fumes.

No grease. Just turn the pan over and gently squeeze the bottom and the food falls right out. Wonderful stuff to use and clean.
