Can the 9.5 round cuisinart grill pan be used to cook eggs?

I would say no, you want a pan that has a flat smooth bottom, this pan has ridges to create grill marks like on a piece of meat.

I would assume so. I prefer a flat surface to cook my eggs, so I use my other skillets. Keep in mind, this one has the ridges in the bottom to give you grill marks. If you don't mind grill marks or ridges in your fried eggs or working around the ridges in the pan as you scramble the eggs, I don't see why you couldn't cook eggs in it.

I suppose if you were frying eggs, and without turning them over this pan would work. It does have ridges so would be tricky with scrambled of over easy. On the other hand if you used a rubber/silicon scraper scrambled would work.

I bought this pan about 6 months ago and have never thought to use it to cook eggs. The bottom of the pan has raised sections across it to create the look of a grill on meat. I would think this would make it hard to cook eggs of any style since you wouldn't be able to get under a fried or over easy egg to flip it and scrambled eggs would get caught between the raised sections. Hope that helps!

The pan has ridges - to score steak or chops, so it would not be appropriate for eggs. You'd need a flat or omelet pan for that.

No, this pan has a ribbed bottom. I don't see how an egg could possibly be cooked in this pan.

I have. I bought this one because the handles let it fit in my big green egg. Pan was great, even heat.

If the pan is hot enough, yes it will. I've not used it for fried eggs, as the ridges make flipping them over challenging. Pancakes hold up better, but you still need to slide your spatula along the ridges, not crosswise into them.

Absolutely! I think it cooks two eggs better than one. I posted pictures of the pan with one egg and two eggs for reference.

I would think so because it is stainless....but I wouldn't want yo use mine that way because of the clean up...I would just use foil on the grill....I love my flat pan and use it pretty much every day...you will love it!

I have the cuisnart round grill pan. I use it alll rhe time on my glass top stove. I get it pretty hot as to GRILL my pork chops, hamburgers ect. It does a great job with grill marks and taste. Place your meat crosswise to get the real nice grill marks and to smoke the meat. This will add a lot of smoke for you. The aroma of the smoke is fantastic. You can scramble eggs to!! I love this pan. Hope this helps.

Not according to the directions, however, I don't see why you can't. But the fact is, unless one of your eggs breaks, all you really need to do is give the two plastic pieces a thorough rinse in hot water.After I cook eggs, while the tray is still very hot, I take a wad of wet paper towels and clean the plate with it (being careful, because it's very hot). Every 10 uses or so, I put vinegar and water in the plate as directed, and let it boil for 10 minutes. Everything is always sparkly clean. I LOVE this thing! We use it all the time.

Yes. There is no non-stick coating. It appears to be cast iron. Very heavy duty and transfers the heat evenly. I found cooking scrambled eggs was difficult. Unless the grill is "level", the eggs will run to one corner or edge. We used this on a camping trip and it was difficult to find a level spot to cook. Pancakes would work better because the batter is usually thicker. Cooking sausage links and patties was a dream.

no you can't, the grill is slanted downward to allow for drippings to empty out so your eggs would simply run down into the drippings catcher.

I wouldn't try it. I've seen professional cooks use smaller non-coated pans to cook eggs, but they had to use a lot of oil the pull it off. For eggs or cheese recipes I use one of my professional Tramontina coated skillets. If need be, the 12" coated Tramontina skillet uses the lid from the All-Clad pan. The lid fits like it was made for it.

I have the 9.5 inch pan. It works very well. Make sure to season it first, per the enclosed instructions.

I would depend on the size of your grill pan. The square is larger in size.

Yes. You want to use a little butter or some type of oil. Make sure you use low-to-medium heat, and just the right amount of heat so that the eggs cook but not so much that it will scorch the eggs. You may have to play around with the heat settings to find out the right amount for your stove and this pan.

Hi Cindy: Sure, I understand what you need. I bought this pan for the same job. I have measured it for you. The outer diameter of the upper brim of this pan is 18cm, or about 7 inches. I would say this pan isn't big actually; so if you poach extra large eggs, the eggs might not always fit in the cups. But for most ordinary eggs, it should be OK.

Yes you can use the grill pan on electric burners. I have used mine that way

I returned it because it did NOT do eggs without sticking. I did buy this pan Vollrath Z4012 Wear-Ever Aluminum Fry Pan with CeramiGuard II Non-Stick Coating, 12-Inch and I love it!!!

I have not used the pan on a grill. I would guess it would depend on how hot the grill becomes, keeping in mind the metal is thin.Good luck.
