Heat over very low heat for 20 minutes. Wipe off excess oil with paper towel. Your Bacon Press is now seasoned and ready for use. (Caution: Do not use in a nonstick fry pan as it may scratch the finish.)

Great Product

It is both cute and just the right size for my fry pans. I wondered about the pig shape, as opposed to a circle or a square, but the coverage is just fine, and it looks attractive as well.

Does the Job and Does It Well

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!

Didn't read the measurements of the pig very well - doesn't cover the whole slice of bacon

This was a 6 year anniversary present for my husband. 6 years is Iron and Candy. Since bacon is "meat candy" to him, this was a perfect gift. He was thrilled - loves his cast iron bacon press. Very sturdy handle. Good press. Very happy with this product!!
