What’s Cookin’ Wednesday (and another giveaway!)

Last week I told you two things – that I am trying to be a better cook and that I’ve realized how important good equipment is! This is part two of the four part What’s Cookin’ Wednesday series, during each of which I’ll be doing a giveaway for an amazing product from ScanPan!

This week’s piece of equipment is their Professional Nonstick Square Grill Pan.

Here’s a little bit about the pan:
This practical grill pan is a necessity for low-fat cooking. Great for searing and grilling sandwiches, hotdogs, hamburgers, and thinly sliced meats and vegetables. Its clean, elegant design is unique and modern. Dishwasher safe.

I, for one, was thrilled to read that “dishwasher safe” part because I didn’t think it was! That is pretty awesome.

I’ve used this pan to make hamburgers and hotdogs and it works very well for both, just like they promised. I hadn’t thought of using it to grill sandwiches, but that is a great idea. I’m picturing a Panera panini. But then again, it would be me cooking so it probably wouldn’t be that pretty.

Speaking of not pretty, here’s the bacon I cooked in this poor unsuspecting pan just the other night.

Believe me, that is USER ERROR, it was not the fault of the pan. But I couldn’t let you think I was becoming too good of a cook! You should have seen the pancakes that went with the bacon.

Yeah, it turned into a Papa John’s night. After I turned off the smoke alarms.

Anyway! I am giving one of these babies away, and to whomever wins – I want to see pictures of the pretty bacon you make!
