Electric grills with grooved and smooth plates

Smooth and corrugated

— grills that offer the option to use both smooth and corrugated surfaces during cooking, either separately or simultaneously.

Each type of surface has been described in detail in the relevant sections of this list. It's worth noting that the combination of these surfaces can vary depending on the type of grill, although there is no strict rule. For example, many contact grills in this category offer interchangeable plate sets, allowing users to choose and even combine different surface types. Another design option includes two fixed plates of different types (usually with a corrugated lower plate and a smooth upper plate). These devices often have the ability to open 180°, allowing both plates to be used in an open grill format.

In addition to contact grills, interchangeable plates can also be found in other types of grills within this category, such as open models, raclette grills and horizontal barbecue grills. However, another popular option among these devices is the use of combined plates, where one part is smooth and the other part is corrugated. This design choice eliminates the need for plate changes and allows users to easily choose the appropriate surface type for their cooking needs. Furthermore, it enables the simultaneous cooking of different types of food on the same grill.
