What is a contact grill?

A contact grill has heated plates on both the top and bottom, cooking food simultaneously from both sides — significantly faster than single-sided grilling. Ideal for paninis, chicken breasts, fish, and vegetables, with ridged plates that create attractive grill marks.

What is the difference between a contact grill and an air fryer?

A contact grill uses direct heat from both sides simultaneously — best for flat items where searing and grill marks are desired, such as chicken breasts, burgers, and toasted sandwiches. An air fryer circulates hot air for frying and roasting. Many Lebanese households benefit from having both for different cooking needs.
