My stove is tilted on purpose
I do not know the degree of tilt but minor. When i cook lets say minute steaks or gb i am able to bring the meat to one side to allow grease separating. Spoon off and all is good. Is this a good practice?

Very slight tilt. Could never notice a pot of soup being off kilter. When i crack an egg it does move to the rear but the second egg stays away from the first.

Pancakes and such like potato pancakes are perfect. Just enough to push ground meat to the close side and after a min or 2 grease is in the away side.

Is this a good practice? Okay for top burners but not so good for baking. I just tilt skillets to let the grease run to one side, works well with caramelized onions. I like my stove dead plumb... no lopsided cakes. |

Pancakes are easy, try fried eggs on a griddle with 40º rolls/pitches. Only saving grace not many wanted to eat greazy eggs and homefries in rough seas, most just wanted to do dry heaves while praying to a commode. I guess I was lucky, as a ship's cook I never got sea sick. The rougher the sea the more I liked it. I'd snicker at the old salts who couldn't hold down saltines. |

Is this a good practice? That ****es me off when I pour some oil in a pan and it doesn't flow precisely over the surface! Does anybody's stove flow perfectly? |

My stove is perfectly level... there are leveling screws underneath plus you can use shims |

Janet, mine, too...I suspect the OP's floor may have settled a bit and it has made liquids
slightly off. Or the levelers weren't adjusted properly to begin with. N. |

I levelled it myself and like that bit of off. I just wondered if i was alone. I totally understand the bakers. I pretty much do not bake. |

I keep a griddle over my built in grill, so I just put one edge of the skillet on it if I want to drain something the way you claim you do. Tilting the entire stove for that single purpose is just plain weird. -- Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them. |
