Not stainless steel, rather the standard black grill accessory. No surprises, it does just as you'd expect. If you want the grill markings, preheat the utensil over the coals/flame. The mesh gives you a little more smokiness than a solid pan on the grill would. Cleaning is easy, especially if you've splashed some oil on the veggies before they go into the pan. -aem |

How do you bbq vegetables, with or without that? Wouldn't the low fire temps and the long times turn the veggies into leather? |

And for the record you can bbq and grill at the same time with a smoker with a side mounted firebox. You can grill lunch and be bbq'ing dinner at the same time on the same device. Lou |

It is OK, but if I was to do more mixed small veggies cooking on the grill, the WS model seems to be better as you can flip the stuff easier right in the pan as opposed to turning it on the grill plate. I'm not sure I can justify $30 for a little used tool though. |

Then you could load it up, snap the cover on, and just turn it over to get all sides grilled, so to speak - instead of trying to stir-fry in this frypan with an implement which would catch on the mesh. That's just me, though. I used to grill.... N. |

As for stirring/turning, aren't you supposed to shake the pan and flip the contents? (Not that I can do that, mind you!) Lynn in Fargo Need to buy a stovetop grill pan got a really good vent fan! |
