'With an aluminum base and a wood handle, the Amé Dessence is one of the classiest-looking grill presses available. It comes pre-seasoned with vegetable oil, meaning it’s ready to press your meats right out of the box. This seasoned press is ideal for all kinds of meat, including chicken, fish, pork, and more. As well as making the press look pretty cool, the spiral steel handle stays cool during use. To preheat your press, place it directly on the gas burner or electric coil of your stove and heat it over medium heat for at least 10 minutes. Use the press as you would otherwise, preheating your pan, adding your food, and then placing the heated press on top of that food. This steak weight is also useful for cooking bacon and keeping it flat on your griddle top for perfectly straight, uncurled bacon strips! Whether you're looking to press the perfect burger or just want to cut down on cooking times for your meat items, this steak weight will do the trick.
