BergHOFF Cast Iron Bacon/Steak Press

Got rust after one wash.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let's talk about this BergHOFF Cast Iron Press. I received this complimentary for my honest opinion.  This press is meant to flatten food for an even cooking and browning. While it's called a bacon/steak press, this baby can be used for SO MUCH MORE. It's a great weight for anything you want to help hold down or get a good sear on. I made Cuban sandwiches for dinner and this was perfect for getting that perfect browning you want.  The handle is made from bamboo and it's always cool. It's comfortable to grab and hold, looks really cute with the press, and it keeps your hands safe from being burnt. The press is easy to clean and I love the results from using it. This is definitely a must have for enthusiasts like me in the kitchen and I recommend having it in your arsenal.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the BergHOFF Neo Cast Iron Steak Press and it’s honestly such a game changer in the kitchen. It has a nice heavy weight to it, which is perfect for getting an even sear on steaks, burgers, bacon, and even grilled sandwiches. The cast iron heats evenly and helps lock in flavor without overcooking. I also love the wooden handle—it stays cool and feels sturdy in your hand. Cleanup has been easy with proper seasoning, and the green color is a fun bonus that looks great with my cookware. This is a solid, well-made tool that I’ll definitely keep reaching for when cooking on the stove or grill.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have wanted a cat iron press forever. This press fits perfectly in my round medium cast iron pan and my round medium fry pans. At 3 1/2 pounds, it's an optimal weight for grilling a pressed sandwich or searing protein. The wooden handle not only adds beauty to the piece, it stays cool while using. The small waffle pattern on the press provides even pressure when searing so it will only make sear lines if I use it with my ridged grill pan. My favorite use is for creating a beautiful EVEN golden sear on chicken cutlets. Super easy to clean, I only hand wash it.

This 9in Cast Iron Steak Press by BergHOFF is well made, functional and gorgeous. The bamboo handle really prevents heat transfer so you don't have to worry about getting scorched while holding it. It really gets a good seer on the steak.
