To have the best electric griddle or grill experience, always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use and cleaning. There are some indoor electric grills with dishwasher-safe parts, but many require some amount of hand washing. If you have a non-stick electric griddle or grill, be careful about which grilling utensils and cleaning tools you use to avoid scratching the surface.
While an electric smokeless grill creates none of its own BBQ smoke, the foods you cook on it can still create smoke from fats and grease heating up. So, when you are setting up an indoor grill, it is wise to place it where air can easily vent out of the kitchen. This is especially important if you are grilling greasy foods, like bacon. When using a griddle or panini maker, do your best to keep cheese from dripping onto the grill’s surface.
Having an electric grill or electric griddle indoors makes it easy to coordinate meal prep between the indoor grill and other devices, like a slow cooker or an air fryer.
