Zojirushi EA-DCC10 Gourmet Sizzler Electric Griddle

Delivered on time

I'm updating my original review. I have come to love this griddle. After 30+ years of using many griddles, this has proven to be the best of them all. Its costly for sure, but you absolutely wont find a better griddle that heats evenly with great non-stick. I get the reviews about the exact temperature of the settings, no issues, I jest set it lower... I'm the grandpa who makes the worlds best pancakes... Perfect $160 for an Electric Griddle, just completely crazy, but I decided to buy this for two advertised features. Ever heat distribution and easy to clean, and one feature important to me with the higher sides but not as high as a large electric skillet. Yes the temperature was even. I used a scanning laser thermometer and cooked french toast this morning. Set the temperature to 350 and let it preheat. the temperature varied 5-12 degrees edge to edge, end to end... perfect Not perfect is that when set to 350 the temp was 405 degrees, so I adjusted to 300 to accomplish my goal. Six slices of toast were cooked even with no hot spots whatsoever, a lifetime first and worth a premium. Yes it was very easy to clean but with four 20" components it took up some counter space to dry. The quality is medium and will take special care not to damage but not cheap and flimsy, this is where the cost was excessive, for this much I expected a substantial build. each component will flex easily except the cooking plate, this is solid but has a very warning to not drop it.. I think I'm an idiot for spending this much, but every once in a while ??

After extensive research, I decided to invest in the Zojirushi Gourmet Sizzler Electric Griddle, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. This griddle stands out as the best option on the market, and it exceeded my expectations upon arrival. The extra-large cooking surface provides ample space for preparing breakfast favorites like pancakes, bacon, and eggs, making it perfect for family gatherings or weekend brunches. The even heat distribution ensures consistent cooking results every time, and the adjustable temperature settings allow for precise control over the cooking process. What's more, the Zojirushi griddle's versatility extends beyond the kitchen – I'm excited to take it camping this summer for outdoor cooking adventures. Its durable construction and portable design make it the ideal companion for any outdoor excursion. Overall, I highly recommend the Zojirushi Gourmet Sizzler Electric Griddle to anyone in search of a high-quality, versatile cooking appliance. Whether you're whipping up breakfast at home or grilling on the go, this griddle delivers exceptional performance and reliability.

I bought this electric griddle after my third one (other brands) in 5 years broke on me. I hadn't been all that happy with the past ones (as the heat distribution was awful). I was "this" close to giving up on electric griddles entirely, but really liked that this Zojirushi griddle has an element that really covers the entire cooking area. So I figured it would be worth the higher cost. Turns out I was absolutely right - the griddle does have very good heat distribution (no more "musical chairs" with pancakes to keep them cooking evenly!) The griddle also has plenty of power - I haven't had to cook at a temperature beyond the pre-heat range yet (with other griddles, I sometimes doubted that they ever got up to temperature). You're supposed to pre-heat the griddle for 8 minutes, which makes a real difference to the heat distribution, as well - that's enough time to pre-heat while you mix up pancakes. I love that the griddle plate has high sides, which makes turning food much easier, and makes it possible to use the griddle for foods beyond pancakes. While the Zodoesn't have the grease drain like other electric griddles, you can make gravy or sauces while cooking your food. I also find I use less oil in this pan because it doesn't all drain away. The pieces are so easy to clean - everything comes apart, and you don't ever have to immerse the element part in water. The lid is is very useful for evenly cooking meat or thicker foods, as it traps the heat. Probably more energy efficient that way, too. The lid is a bit light - it would be very easy to bend it if you're not careful (don't put anything heavy on top of it) - and you have to be careful when lifting it because there's no central knob on top, and you have to lift from the ends. Make sure to lift the lid open AWAY from you to avoid getting steam in your face. (If I had any suggestions on product improvement, it would be to make the lid sturdier, add a handle on top for lifting, and put in a steam vent.) All told, I'm very happy with my Zojirushi griddle and would recommend it over any other griddle I've tried (and I've had at least 7-8 over the past 15 years).

I have had several griddles before and all of them heated unevenly burning food on one side. This type of uneven heating would damage the griddle surface in no time at all even when I kept the temperature lower. I have had Zojirushi EA-DCC10 for about a month or so and I have used it a lot. I've made pancakes that were evenly and perfectly brown. I have made chipotle chicken and stir-fried onions and peppers. I have made hamburgers and grilled peppers, and so much more. All of it has been perfect. The griddle heats very evenly and cooks beautifully. Cleaning is a breeze. Take the griddle off, wash it in warm water with soap and food cleans off easily with little to no scrubbing. The griddle sits on top of the heating element which sits inside a plastic base which keeps one from burning their hands. It also comes with a lid, which fits very loosely and is quite thin, but does help keeps the warmth in and around the food you are cooking. It sure beats laying aluminum foil over the food on the other griddles to keep splatter from going all over the place. This is a great product.

I love this griddle! It cooks evenly - no more striped pancakes and sandwiches. Temperature is marked and easy to manage. Cooking surface is large - I can load it up to save time, another reason why even cooking temperature is so important. The cooking tray truly is non-stick and comes out of the electric base very easily for hassle-free washing in the sink. I was initially skeptical about purchasing this because I didn’t “know” the brand name, but after watching the video and reading about it I am glad I took the chance. BEST electric griddle I have ever used! ( in the last 3+ decades )
