Stainless steel indoor grill

[V.]

Is there a compact stainless steel indoor grill (with no non-stick surfaces) or toaster oven that makes it easy to flip chicken and beef, etc.? Everything I've seen either is non-stick or else it's difficult and messy to flip the meat. Not too expensive, if possible.

Thanks.

Since I posted my question I read how grilling or broiling meat forms toxins because of the high heat involved. Do you have thoughts about that? (I don't [i]think[/i] I read it on your site.) What's the best way, with little time available, to cook meat, then?

Yes, when meat is browned, it ups the flavor. It also denatures the protein. When charred it forms carcinogenic toxins.

So here’s what I do. I enjoy a variety of meat preparations including:
1. Light sautéing or browning at a moderate temperature.
2. Cooking it in a crock pot (with or without first sautéing) or in a pot on top of the stove for long and gentle stewing.
3. Stir frying
4. Roasting
5. Occasionally, I grill or broil meat.

The healthiest grilling devise is one that holds the meat vertically and sandwiched between the heat sources (versus horizontally over the heat). This enables the heat to cook the food but not become smoked. With conventional grilling when a foods' juices hit the heat source the resulting smoke contains carcinogens that both flavor and taint the food.

I saw a kitchen aid stainless steel nonstick grill on epinions...12 inch round, 5 ply. The description says this: The raised lines on the bottom of our grill pans give food appealing grill marks and texture. Our stainless steel grill pan does not have a nonstick coating. This gives grilled foods more pronounced grill marks and a crunchier texture to the marks compared to foods cooked in a nonstick grill pan.
