For much of the United States, winter is a time for comfort foods like pasta, root veggies, soups and stews. But, sometimes you want a juicy grilled burger (mushroom, eggplant, meat or otherwise – we don’t judge), but you don’t want to shovel off the drag out the grill. That’s where skillet grills come in. They give you the beautiful grill marks and that delicious crisp edges without the extra fat of frying. And after you’re finished, they’re easier to clean – some are even dishwasher safe?! – than a traditional grill as well.
Without further ado – check out the top 6 skillet grills:
Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 10-1/4-Inch Square Skillet Grill, Cerise
Le Creuset’s square skillet grill is perfect for everything from ribs to grilled eggplant to burgers. It has a ribbed surface with high treads to allow for fat drainage and even heat distribution. Their black enamel finish needs no seasoning like its traditional cast iron counterparts. And the exterior’s enamel resists chipping and cracking. We will note this one is a bit more expensive than the others on the list – especially the updated version of the skillet pan.
All-Clad 3011 Hard Anodized Aluminum Scratch Resistant Nonstick Anti-Warp Base Dishwasher Safe Square Grill Pan
All-Clad is known for its high-quality, contemporary cookware and this grill pan is no different. It’s made out of hard-anodized aluminum with a nonstick interior. Its flat exterior bottom allows for it to be used on any stove surface. Amazon reviewers have lauded its heat-safe handle and easy clean up (Just run it through the dishwasher!) The raised grill ribs aren’t as high as some of the others on this list, so don’t expect the most amazing grill marks.
Calphalon Unison Nonstick 12-Inch Round Grill Pan
This grill pan from Calphalon sheds the square grill design for a more traditional circular pan. It is built with two different non stick surfaces. The Slide pans allow you to cook without fear of your scrambled eggs charring to the bottom, while the Sear pans do exactly how they’re named: they sear meat and vegetables, bringing your beef bourguignon up a notch. It’s easy to clean (dishwasher safe) and is protected by Calphalon’s lifetime warranty.

The pan’s dramatic grill ridges sear and grill foods with ease and are perfect for nearly every cooking environment (oven, grill, campfire, cook stove, etc.) – just don’t microwave! Like all cast iron products, it’s easy to clean, naturally nonstick and requires a bit of seasoning after uses to ensure it endures many meals for years to come.
