Big Griddle 07046 Tilt 'n Drain Electric Griddle - Huge Surface

In this review the Presto 07046 Tilt 'n Drain Big Griddle is evaluated for cooks who regularly prepare large breakfasts or batch meals. The bottom line: this griddle's single biggest advantage is its truly huge cooking surface that can handle up to 12 slices of french toast or large amounts of food at once, making it ideal for families and entertaining. The review highlights how the premium nonstick coating, slide-out drip tray and Control Master temperature control combine to simplify cooking and cleanup.

Key Features

• Huge cooking surface: The oversized griddle area lets the user cook significantly more food in one go, reducing time spent in multiple batches.
• Premium nonstick surface: Foods release easily for stick-free cooking and the surface washes clean faster than traditional pans.
• Control Master heat control: Built-in heat control maintains a consistent cooking temperature automatically so items cook evenly without constant adjustment.
• Tilt 'n Drain design: The slide-out drip tray collects excess grease and liquids for easy disposal to keep the countertop cleaner during and after use.
• Fully submersible body: With the heat control removed the griddle is safe to immerse for a thorough clean of the cooking surface and exterior.

Who It's For

The Presto Tilt 'n Drain Big Griddle is best for families, brunch hosts, and anyone who needs to prepare large quantities at once, such as cooking for gatherings or batch meal prep. Its large flat surface and consistent heat control suit pancakes, french toast, eggs, and other breakfast staples prepared in volume.

Those who live alone, have very limited counter space, or prefer a multi-burner range for pan-to-pan cooking might look elsewhere; the griddle favors surface area over portability and takes up notable countertop room when in use or stored.
