Amazon.com Review
Those who like their bacon flat rather than curled, especially for making BLTs, will enjoy using this pig-shaped bacon press from Norpro. Made of heavy cast iron with a wooden knob-style handle, the press lays right on top of bacon during frying, and also works well on quesadillas, grilled cheese sandwiches or thickly filled panini, and pork chops that have a tendency to curl at the edges. Care should be taken when used on food in a nonstick skillet not to scratch the finish. Whimsical as well as handy, the bacon press measures 8-1/2 inches in length and can be easily washed by hand. --Ann Bieri

Does the Job and Does It Well October 11, 2007
Just had a chance to try out the bacon press tonight for BLT's--it works great! We love our bacon nice and crisp, and this little press does the job great and seems to speed up cooking time (perhaps because the cast iron "holds in the heat" while the bacon fries?). Bacon was crisp and delicious; the press prevents bacon curling and relieves you of the neverending task of flipping bacon over and over and over again when cooked conventionally. This press is a great addition to my kitchen; only gave it 4 stars, simply because it isn't quite as heavy as I would like, although it still performs well. Just make sure you season it before first use (directions in the box---just oil the press, oil a frying pan, then heat both together on VERY low heat for 20 minutes. Allow to cool and wipe excess oil off press). But don't use it with nonstick pans!

I greatly enjoy my bacon press. I not only use it to have perfect bacon, but it is great for other meats as well.

Great little pig! April 10, 2007
I use this alot and enjoy it. I also use it for grill cheese sandwhiches and it works great.

It cleans up nicely.

Good for bacon but too lightweight to double-duty for sandwiches/paninis. January 12, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

It does its job as a bacon press very well. But a little on the light side when doubling as a sandwich/panini press or a meat press.

Cute pig pattern gets the kids interested in the kitchen and in helping serve breakfast.
