2. In a medium to large bowl, mix the peppers, green onions, garlic, salt, egg, 1½ cups of the
panko, mayonnaise, Worcestershire, Dijon, Old Bay and hot sauce (if using). Add the
crabmeat and very gently mix all of the ingredients together (it is best to do this with clean
hands to avoid over-mixing, but you can do it with a spoon if you are careful to keep the
crabmeat intact).
3. Using your hands, shape the mixture into ¼-cup round cakes (no higher than ½-inch) and
put them on a clean plate, separating the layers with wax paper. Cover with plastic and
refrigerate for 1 hour before cooking (this helps keep the crab cakes together when cooking
and melds the flavors).
4. Fit the Griddler
®
Deluxe with the griddle plates and preheat both plates to 400°F. Brush the
plates with a little vegetable oil (this will help to crisp and lightly brown the crab cakes).
5. While the unit is preheating, lightly dredge the crab cakes in the remaining panko.
6. When the griddle is hot, cook the crab cakes in batches, approximately 8 minutes per side.
Crab cakes should be a deep golden brown on both sides.
7. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.

¾ to 1 pound prepared pizza dough (½ pound is good for personal size)
olive oil, for brushing dough
½ cup pizza sauce
1
⁄3 to ½ cup shredded or sliced mozzarella
kosher salt, to taste
1. Fit the Griddler
®
Deluxe with the griddle or grill plates and preheat both plates at 450°F.
2. While the unit is heating, roll out the dough to a rectangle slightly smaller than the plate,
about 10 inches wide. Brush both sides with olive oil.
3. Once the unit has preheated, place oiled dough on lower plate, spreading it carefully to fill
the plate. Close the upper plate and cook for about 5 minutes.
4. Keeping the upper plate at 450°F, reduce the lower plate to Warm. Open unit; top dough
with the sauce, cheese and salt; set the cover height adjuster at the highest notch and close
the upper plate until it is just sitting above the cheese. Let the pizza cook until the cheese is
fully melted, about 10 minutes.
5. Remove pizza, let rest for a few minutes, then slice and serve.
