Hamilton Beach 25475 Breakfast Sandwich Maker, Gray (Discontinued)

It was simple that I succumbed to the urge because I'm a gadget guy. In my routine, I used to stop by McDonald's every day on the way to work and get a McMuffin with an egg or sausage. As I bring the coffee from home, I am only making one purchase at a time. It was my first attempt to make a sausage sandwich at home that I found to be mediocre at best, compared to my experience in a drive-through. In short, the problems were as follows 1 *br /*br In addition, the muffin was too small to accommodate both an egg and sausage. Please see 2. It was very messy to clean up the mess left by the egg sticking to the maker. 2.
3. I had some egg juice dripping from the sliding plate, but it wasn't too much. 2. 3. 4. There was no proper heat applied to the precooked sausage and Canadian bacon. 3.

4. A hard-boiled egg is the result of overcooking. After a bit of experimentation, I was able to resolve all the issues and now I am enjoying breakfast sandwiches each morning and I know exactly what's As a result of my learning, I have provided the following information. In the first case, the first problem of buying a muffin that was too small was addressed by selecting the brand carefully. Cheaper muffins tend to be smaller than the more expensive ones. It is imperative that the cooking chamber of the maker has enough space for a full size muffin. In order to obtain my muffins, I go to the restaurant supply store across the street from where I live. It comes in a 10 pack of full size cookies. In my local grocery store, I pay more than half as much per muffin. In order to resolve the next problem, after preheating the maker, we spritzed a small amount of cooking spray into the egg chamber. As well as the sides of the ring, the sliding plate is included here. The spray I use is olive oil-based, and I get it at a Sticking and torn eggs are no longer a problem. It was found that the leak is prevented by preheating the maker for a few minutes My first step is to plug it in and then When you allow an extra minute or two after the green light turns on, preheat will be much more effective. Aside from the cooking spray, another factor that helped was the wax paper. Whenever I use my maker, I put it on when it In this manner, it appears that the plate and ring are sealed. I now make sure the ingredients are cold, but not frozen, so they don't freeze, so the sausage wasn't hot enough. I also avoided using frozen pork patties or bacon slices. The issue was then resolved completely as a result of this change. My local restaurant supply often beats the Wally World on price, but I have found the best deal on ingredients at my local grocery store. Just put a week's worth of food in the refrigerator, and the rest in the freezer, if you buy a big package. I had a problem with the tough egg. For me, this was a show stopper. It was a waste of the maker's time not to fix the problem, and it meant he would get As it turns out, the solution was rather straightforward. The maker must be preheated for a longer period of time prior to use, and the cooking time needs to be shortened an egg that is done just right (for me), as well as the rest of the sandwich completely heated through. Following the use of the cooking spray, cleaning up was a breeze. Cleaning the cooking rings is easy. I wipe them with a damp cloth or place them After a quick wipe down, the maker body is ready for use. You might like to try substituting the breakfast meat with corned beef or pastrami from the deli for lunch or dinner sandwiches if you're feeling adventurous. Slice a thin slice of onion and sprinkle some Swiss cheese on top of the egg chamber. Having just completed six months in the program, I am thrilled. Despite the fact that I purchased two, I have one at home and one that I take with me to the extended hotels I need to stay at on a regular basis because of It was amazing how much money was saved. Savings from just drive through made this product pay for itself after two weeks. I commend Hamilton Beach on their achievement. After writing my initial review, it occurred to me that there is one more tip for using this product. If you load the maker as recommended, the cheese will be next to the egg, which causes the egg to slide around on the meat, especially right after it's been cooked. As you can see, I have now placed the cheese between the bottom muffin and the I have solved the problem. I've found that Wally World carries bags of pre-diced onions, bell peppers, and jalapenos, which is another tip for customers using it in a hotel room or at work. My hotel room fridge usually has some of these, and I will scramble one with some vegetables instead of a plain egg. If the vegetables are frozen, either put them in the microwave for a few seconds to defrost them or don't I have been substituting English muffins with sour dough, wheat, and cinnamon raisin breads in order to mix things up a bit. If used as a cutting tool, the rings produce a great "cookie cutter" effect on the bread slices. After shaping the bread, I spread some butter on the side of the bread that is in contact with the heat. There is a nice crunch in the end! You could spread a bit of pesto on the other side for something savory. The pesto has to be used with little or no butter, otherwise it gets For a favorite, I love sour dough, pesto, havarti cheese, sliced roast beef and thinly sliced This sandwich is heaven sent for lunch and dinner! In response to my comment regarding the size differences in english muffins, I have received a few questions. When I buy muffins from a restaurant supply, I usually get larger muffins for less money per muffin than those I get at the grocery store. I have uploaded a photo of each loaded into the maker so that you can compare. You can see the difference in how the cooking chamber is filled between the two. It may be helpful to you. Last time I stopped at the restaurant supply store to buy English muffins, I came across an interesting discovery. An oil spray that is flavored with garlic. Adding flavor to the sandwich maker is another simple way to make it more flavorful. This product, made by Vegalene, gives my more savory creations a tremendous amount of flavor. Using the name as a search term, you can find the book on Amazon. I found the price per can at our local restaurant supply house to be identical before shipping. After I thought about it some more, I realized that the size of the egg should also be altered. My local grocery stores provide small through extra-large I have tried a variety of sizes, ranging from small to My main reason is to reduce calories, but I have also found that cooking the egg shorter helps also. I recently did a bit of an experiment which I am sharing. During my visit to our local Wally World I saw real bacon pieces. This is not the imitation kind that is hard and crunchy. This week, I took a bag of them for a test drive. My first step was to sprinkle a layer of cheese on top of the bottom muffin. As usual, the muffin top and egg were both great. I am very pleased with the outcome! I really enjoyed this change of pace from my normal turkey sausage patties. Additionally, it's a lot easier than fitting bacon into a frying pan. In addition to the slide plate, I've also tried them without the egg using a medium egg because of the space available. It is actually better from a structural standpoint to cook the bacon into the egg. You need to add about 30 seconds to the cooking time in order to get the I found the bits at the restaurant supply store for a very reasonable price for a large package. It is just a matter of breaking up the bag into smaller ones and freezing them. Just enough to use on a daily basis should be kept in the fridge. I just wanted to let you know that the sandwich makers have been up and running without incident for nearly a year with no failures or problems. Suddenly, I found myself with a fridge full of barbecued Italian sausages. Eventually, the plan evolved to cut them into round slices about 1/4 inch thick and use them for sandwiches for lunch and dinner. I am really pleased with how they worked! Sprinkle some grated mozzarella cheese on top of them and arrange them on the bottom muffin. To add a little more flavor, I tossed some basil leaves into the mix. A fried egg may or may not be included, depending on your mood. For a light dinner, this is a real treat. There is one variation I really like, and that is to spread some spaghetti or pizza sauce on the lower muffin first You may need to cook the muffins for a bit longer so the top will warm through. You'll think of a meatball sandwich from the Italian deli when you taste the finished product. I hope you are having a good day. My dad made an extra hamburger this past weekend when we had a barbecue on Sunday. I decided to try a bit of an experiment when packing for Monday's trip for work by throwing the potato chips in the cooler along with a few pieces During my stay at the hotel, I used the sandwich maker and warmed it There was a hamburger patty in the upper chamber. In order to make mine for the BBQ, I hand formed it to be smaller in diameter, and A full fill of the upper chamber is achieved. The two parts of the muffin and a folded slice of American cheese were placed in the lower chamber about three minutes into the cooking process. We removed the muffin once it had steamed for six minutes and separated it before adding the burger and onion. I really enjoyed the meal that was served in the room. Reproduced the process the next night by eliminating the muffin heating time and placing the cold muffin, cheese, and heated meat in the heating chamber with the plate removed. In fact, I liked it better this way, and I think it was shorter than I expected. Here's an update on the hamburger post. One of my complaints has been that the outside of the muffin is excessively toasted hard. I think I have found a way to solve this problem. To get the top and bottom surfaces, I slice the muffin, then flip the slices so I have the cut sides on the top and bottom. Then both of them, minus the cheese, are lowered into the bottom chamber. is put into the top chamber of the grill and then the lid is About 1 to 2 minutes later, when the meat has been flipped, lift the lid and lift out the entire ring assembly, leaving the muffin visible. The muffin should now be flipped If you look at the surface where the food rested, you'll see it has a toasty golden brown color. The lid should be closed after the ring assembly is placed back on the ring. Put together your hamburger, adding cheese if you want it. After another 1 to 2 minutes, add the cheese. It is easy to see that this bread is soft on the outside and toasted on the inside. A further benefit is that any moisture that is driven from the muffin during toasting is contained, so the bread is soft in addition to the toasted parts. - I think this is a technique that can be applied to more things than hamburgers with some You will hear from me as soon as possible. Today I had the opportunity to use this technique on some precooked Italian sausages for lunch. I had a few left over from yesterday's BBQ, so this is what I did with them. After assembling and centring a hot sandwich maker, it was time to split and reverse the muffin as described previously. Using slices straight from the fridge, I layered about half a sausage's worth of food in the top chamber. After the maker had been plugged in, it was tested. In about 15 seconds, the sausage had begun to sizzle just as the green light was turning on. In my case, I initially removed the entire muffin ring assembly and then flipped the toasted muffin over, removing the upper muffin as well. As soon as the sausages were replaced with the rings, a slice of provolone and the undrained blood were added. I had a toasted muffin for breakfast. It would not fully close before the cheese melted, but it did once it In the next step, the green light turned on again, and I opened the slide to allow the sausage, provolone, and muffin to fall. With just a few more minutes of heating, our sausage sandwiches become cheesy and delicious. Upon melting, the cheese fuses with the muffin below, making it one cohesive piece. The next time I make this, I'll add a few slices of thin onion. I discovered how to make a hot pastrami sandwich today, and it was quite tasty. From one large slice of rye bread, I cut two circles using the removable rings like a cookie cutter. I placed both circles in the bottom compartment and turned the sandwich maker on. Upon having the green light turn on, a bunch of slices of pastrami and a slice of provolone were loaded into the top compartment where the bread can be flipped over to toast the other side. The slide plate was opened and the rings were removed once the meat was hot and the cheese melted. Once the toasted round had been positioned on top, the assembly was complete. This is yet another variation on the breakfast sandwich without A piece of English muffin was loaded into the maker and toasted according to the previously described method. Two small eggs and garlic salt, as well as a few dashes of hot sauce, were placed in the upper compartment after heating and flipping the bread. I was surprised to find they fit snugly and do not overflow. A bit of cooking time is required for this sandwich, but the combination of egg, salt, garlic, and heat makes I like my omelettes with plenty of chopped bacon and onions, so sometimes I'll just have an egg while some times I'll want just an egg. In the previous review, they were mentioned. My usual method is to use two small eggs to fill the upper chamber. Three minutes later, remove the rings from the handle by opening the slide and lowering your plate into the holder. It was delicious! * br /* One comment on the durability of the device. I have found it to be good so far. It has been over a year since I bought it, and I have had no problems. All of the surfaces are in good shape, including the nonstick coating. You will hear from me as soon as possible. Hello! I'm glad to see you again! Today I tried out a bit of an experiment. The other day I found a bunch of thinly sliced pastrami and thinly sliced onions in my refrigerator, so I decided to try lower chamber, the lower half of the muffin was placed, some thinly sliced onions were placed, and last but not least thin pastrami filled A slice of egg, a pinch of garlic salt, and a muffin top went into the upper chamber. A few minutes later, a tiny bit of heaven emerged. There was just a bit of softness to the egg, but it wasn't It was great to have the soft egg as a complement to the hot pastrami, since there was no cheese to mar the flavors. There is a possibility that this may be one of my regular meals in the future. Almost none of the devices I used at the time failed. This radio has been almost daily in use for some years now, and it's still in good shape. A small amount of wear is seen on the nonstick coating where the slide plate contacts the rings, but that is all. In general, I wipe clean with a damp cloth twice a week and stick the rings in the dishwasher. Even when I believed that I had exhausted all of the possibilities, I found another. Our house was accidentally opened a few days ago by a can of corned beef. I remember one of those rectangular cans that resembled a Spam can in size. The corned beef was split lengthwise with a sharp knife, so I ended up with three slices, about the size of In the Sandwich Maker they fit perfectly after they have been trimmed around the corners. Having heated the maker thoroughly, a slice of the English muffin was placed in the bottom chamber and the whole thing was placed in the upper chamber. One of the slices of corned beef was well browned and crispy after a few minutes of sizzling. An egg was then inserted into the upper chamber after the now-warm muffin was removed. Following this, the corned beef was flipped over and a second egg was added. As soon as the egg was done, the other side of the corned beef had begun to brown. A muffin, an egg, and a fried egg This sandwich is very tasty and packed with protein due to its corned beef filling. All of us wish you a Merry Christmas. Despite turning three years old, our sandwich maker is still in perfect working order. I have had no problems or complaints, and I use it almost every day. As discoveries are made, I will post them. Hello again! I hope you're having a great day! I have been here for over three years and have not had a problem. So even the nonstick coating is perfect. A few adjustments have been made to my technique. As opposed to using the maker to toast the muffins, I cooked the egg and sausage separately and then toasted the muffins. The first thing I did was to plug my cold maker in and put a frozen sausage patty in the bottom compartment. I pop in the muffin in the toaster at the same time. Around a minute after the sausage is cooked, it begins to Turn the jar over so that its top compartment is open. Crack an egg in it. The egg will be ready about the same time that the toaster pops. Slide the slider open, and the egg must fall onto the sausage, then the sausage and egg are placed on You can choose to have cheese with it. It is excellent to eat the crispy muffin. As a whole, using the maker is no longer as much work as using it I am happy to meet all of you. It doesn't seem to be slowing down for the sandwich makers. In light of the 2013 purchase, I had expected that they would have failed by now. I use the product almost every day and am still in love with it. As of July 2017, the switch maker is still functioning after having been used almost every day since July 2016. It is nothing to be concerned A month later, the technique is still the same, but I have added another twist. Sometimes I want more than just a sandwich on Saturday mornings, such as when I am at work. Hashbrowns are my favorite side dish to eat with eggs. Do you think it's possible to make hashbrowns in the Sandwich Maker and not dirty up the The answer is yes. In order to do so, I first load a pre-cooler with the cold maker Under the sausage patty, you will find a cooked sausage patty. To make one layer of tater tots, I use enough mini tots so that they are just thick enough. You can make magic with it when you plug it in. As soon as you hear the sausage sizzle, lift the lid and open the upper compartment, then flip it over and close the can. potatoes are now ready for the lower compartment. Slide the plate down and they will easily drop in. If you need to rearrange the layers with a fork, close the plate after the first layer is across. Let us crack the egg into the upper part of the tube. In some cases, you may not have to use cooking spray because of your preference. The muffins will toast faster if they're In about the same amount of time that the muffin cooks, the egg cooks as well. All you have to do now is assemble the sandwich, place the potatoes on a plate and you're If you choose to use a plate and fork, you will have to clean them in addition to the sandwich maker.

In addition to potato pancakes, you can also use it for flour tortillas You can also serve it with rice cakes Egg sandwiches with a topped crust. It is very easy to use this item. Az purchased the item as a refurbished item 20 months ago. It had not been seasoned with flax oil, so I painted it with flax oil, and then cooked it for about 15 minutes, but the cook plate surface had a non-stick coating already I have used the stick finish for over 200 uses and it has held up very well. A hinged insert provides high durability and ease of use The bottom heating plate is made from some kind of high temperature plastic that only heats up to about 300°F (compared to 440°F for the top and bottom plates), and hasn't deteriorated from heat, although it has been heavily scratched by fry an egg or two on a mini flower tortilla (from Target), keeping it open-faced to let it cook until it sets It comes in a face form (no top tortilla), sometimes with a dash of beef broth and spices like turmeric, ginger, salt, and pepper You can also add cinnamon and a dash of pomegranate molasses to the pepper or cinnamon glaze. It's easy to see that in the photo in the upper right that I used a kitchen scissors to cut 1/2" notches at the tortilla edge, since the Hamilton inner diameter is 4" and the smallest tortillas are The purpose of this purchase was to make egg-a-macadamia For less than half the cost of muffins, I purchase a small single tortilla in my neighborhood.
Because I already have flour as part of my lunch or dinner, I prepare an egg in the Hamilton on a rice cake for breakfast every morning The pictured round rice cake brand was on bogo for $1 at Jewel Foods in our neighborhood recently. A bag of 50 English muffins costs 50 (2/(2x14=5* each), compared to 35+* for the In addition to the pictured frozen eggplant cutlets (from Aldi US), I use frozen pankakes or shredded potatoes, and I put one on the bottom while the unit warms up, flip it over when the preheat light shines, and cook it for another 4 minutes. After starting out frozen, the machine has been thawed after 5 minutes. Then I cook my morning egg, as I normally would, after (or sometimes while) that item is cooking (cooking). A quick update I bought a refurbished unit on Az 2 years ago and it is still in good working order. In order to ensure the edges and crevices of the insert being used and cooled are clean, I now keep an extra toothbrush by the sink. When cooking an egg by itself, I routinely cook it only for 90 seconds, then open the bottom to insert a slice of bread, a piece of meat, or a It's not advisable to leave cheese in the oven for the full cycle because the cheese will become overcooked.
