How deep is this griddle? would it be suitable for frying bacon?

It's suitable for a small amount which I have done. I usually cook bacon on a rack in the oven so all the oil goes in the drip pan. When I do fry it in the pan I drain out the oil half way through cooking or else it doesn't get crispy.

It is about 1/2 inch deep, as I remember. I think it is suitable for frying bacon. I would get a different fry pan. This one did not hold up well.

It's not even a 1/2 inch deep. I wouldn't cook bacon in it just because there's always more grease than bacon.

I haven't used it long enough to answer that question.The first two times I used was enough for me. The center of the griddle became like a pitchers mound and everything slid to to the edges. I don't know if that answered your question,but I would not recommend this griddle. Dennis McCarthy

It is deep enough to cook bacon in it. It's about 1/4 inch deep. I cook bacon in it all the time.

We have not fried bacon on this griddle, but it appears to be perfectly suited for that. Happy eating!!

Note deep enough for bacon, unless you don't mind the spatter. It is great for cooking eggs over easy. My wife makes a mean egg mcmuffin with Canadian bacon. Canadian bacon cooks great on the griddle!

About 1 1/2 inches. Shallow, but deep enough for frying and very big. Love it!

Hi, this pan is very well made. It is deep enough for deep frying as well. The size of the pan is 4-1/2 qt. To give you close idea for deepness, it is 4 inches deep (approximately 10 centimeters). Hope I helped you.

Don't see why not, I pour bacon grease into it now and save bacon grease to use in my corn bread. It wouldn't hold to much if your talk about deep fryer oil.

I've had this griddle now since last summer and have used it perhaps 15 times to cook bacon, sausage, eggs, hashbrowns and pancakes for 2-8 people at a time. The only thing I would say is to handle it very carefully as the handles are very tinny. They're brittle BakeLite. If you break one off with rough handling, which is a very real possibility, your griddle will probably not be very easy to use after that.

I'm not sure as it was a requested gift and never has lived at my house. I was there last week and they are storing it in the same place they stored their old Presto griddle and it looked about the same height to me. They love it! Their biggest complaint is the difficulty of cleaning the ditch the melted grease drips into when they use if for bacon but regarded it as a minor inconvenience.

Not at home with pan but estimate it is approx. 5 to 6 inches deep. I can make soup, stew and small batch of red sauce in it. Could also use to deep fry if desired.

It is about 3" deep. I have had no trouble cooking large meals in this skillet. I love this skillet. I also bought the stir pan. Loving this pan too. The lid from the skillet fits the stir fry also.

i dont know what the height of the lip is around the edge of the top surface of the griddle but i have had no issues with anything in reguards to this griddle. so far it workks great, heats up fast and is very even in heating. that is my opinion.

a little more to the sides than my cast iron griddle, I would say about 11/16 inch.

The griddle is about 1/4" thick with 3 sides and a rail for draining in front. Get pretty hot on high and stays hot. Works well if you season with oil and clean and season after every use.

I don't think it should be used as a deep fryer. The coating is anodized, and I don't know if it would hurt it, but I think hot grease over a period of time might be detrimental.

A little over 3". Seems deeper than your normal saute/fry pans. I find this pan very useful.

Can't give specific depth as this was purchased as a gift however I do know that the recipient does use it for frying bacon on a regular basis.
