What Are the Advantages of a Table Grill?

Are you wondering why you should even choose an electric table grill? There are many reasons to invest in an electric table grill. One of the biggest advantages is its compact design. Additionally, a table grill heats up quickly. Long waiting times before you can place your food on the grill are over, so you save a lot of time.

You can use an electric table grill regardless of the weather. Electric table grills are also suitable for indoor use. Whether it’s a pizza grill, raclette grill, or a simple table grill: these devices can be safely used indoors. Another major advantage is that the temperature can be regulated on most devices.

• Shape and design

Different Types of Table Grills

Stöckli offers you a variety of grill devices to choose from. For your tabletop grilling experience, you can use a raclette grill or a pizza grill. All grill devices are electrically powered and can be placed directly on the table.

Weather-independent, shared grilling at the table is possible with any of these devices. A raclette grill provides small pans. For example, the Cheeseboard Grill is designed for four people. On top, it has a non-stick grill plate. In the layer below, the pans are inserted. This allows you to combine cheese gratin with delicious grilled food.

With a pizza grill, you can both grill and prepare small pizzas. While vegetables, meat, fish, or other delicacies are grilled on the top plate, pans are filled with dough and pizza toppings. The PizzaGrill for 8 is a true all-rounder. With this combination device, you can prepare raclette, pizza, and grilled dishes directly at the table. It features a non-stick coated grill plate.

Dimensions and Size of the Table Grill

The size of your electric table grill depends on how many people will be eating. Are you cooking just for yourself or for two people? Or do you want to grill for family, friends, acquaintances, or colleagues? Depending on the occasion and number of guests, choose the appropriate table grill.

The Cheeseboard Twin, for example, is ideal for two people. On the top grill plate, you can cook fresh ingredients, and in the layer below, prepare raclette pans. Matching the Cheeseboard Twin, there is also a Hot’Stone grill plate, allowing you to grill on natural stone as an alternative.

Families and larger groups should opt for a bigger model. For up to six people, the Cheeseboard Six model is suitable. The Twinboard Base is designed for two people but can be expanded to up to five devices. This gives you flexibility. Depending on the number of guests, you can use one or multiple devices.

Additional Decision Criteria

When purchasing a table grill, it can also be helpful to consider the wattage. The higher the wattage, the more powerful the device. The type of grill surface also plays a role in the selection. The grill surface can be smooth or ridged, and some grills combine different surface types.

It is also possible to swap the non-stick grill surface for a stone plate for grilling, as is possible with the PizzaGrill for 6. Additionally, consider the maintenance and cleaning of the table grill. Ideally, the device should be easy and quick to clean.

Form and design can provide the final deciding factor when purchasing a device. However, table grills often look very similar. Most models are available in neutral colors such as black, anthracite, silver, or white. With their simple design and compact dimensions, table grills fit on any table.
