1912 Midland Metal Spinners was founded by

George Cadman, who was then 65 years old, as

a metal holloware manufacturing company, in St.

Mark’s Street, Wolverhampton. They later moved

into the Tower and Fort Works in Pelham Street,

which ultimately gave rise to the famous Tower

brand name.

1937 Tower exhibited some of their latest holloware

designs at the British Industries Fair. As you can

see from the original poster, their stand No. A410

must have been a great sight as it promoted their

“Beautiful, inexpensive, untarnishable Plate, at

prices all can afford to pay”.

1961 Tower became one of the largest

manufacturers of aluminium holloware, electric

kettles, tea pots and other household articles with

over 1,000 employees.

1974 Russell Hobbs took ownership of the

expanding Tower brand.

3USINGYOURAPPLIANCE

Beforefirstuse:

Remove all packaging materials and any promotional labels or stickers from your Reversible Kebab Grill.

Before using your Reversible Kebab Grill for the first time, wipe the sides and temperature control with a damp cloth. Thoroughly clean both sides of the grill/griddle plate, as well as the skewer rack, skewers and drip tray. The skewers and grill/griddle plate can be submerged in water or placed in the dishwasher for cleaning.

Never submerge the housing or skewer tray in water. Always use a damp cloth to clean these parts.

Assembly:

1. Place base on a clean, flat surface where you intend to cook.

2. Decide which way you are going to place the grill/griddle plate on to the base.

3. Slide the drip tray into the base.

4. Insert the skewer rack handle by squeezing the handle arms and insert them into the holes on skewer rack front end. (see fig. 1 & 2)

5. Slide in the skewer rack onto the side rail. (see fig. 3)

6. Plug the cord into the standard electrical outlet. You are now ready to begin cooking.

Usingyourappliance:

The grilling plate has two sides, one with a ribbed surface and one with a flat surface.

The ribbed surface is designed for grilling meat, seafood and vegetables.

The flat surface is perfect for frying bacon, egg, pancakes and sandwiches.

Select the side you require for your cooking and place the plate on the base, with the desired cooking surface face up. Make sure the plate is placed on the base correctly, so it fits securely into place.

Once the Reversible Kebab Grill is assembled properly and you are ready to begin cooking, turn the temperature control dial to the desired temperature setting.

The indicator light on the top of the reversible grill will illuminate to indicate that the thermostat is operating. It may take 11-15 minutes for the grill/griddle plate to reach operating temperature, depending on the temperature level that has been set. The temperature control dial on the grill is used to set and maintain the temperature of the cooking surface. You can vary the setting of the temperature control dial at any time during cooking, and may wish to do so depending on the types of foods on the grill/griddle plate.

CAUTION: Handles will become hot during use. Always use a pot holder when touching any part of the unit when cooking. The grill/griddle plate should not be removed from the base while hot. Allow unit to cool for at least 30 minutes before handling.

NOTE: The first time you use your Reversible Kebab Grill, it may have a slight odour and smoke a bit. This is normal and common to appliances with non-stick surface.

Reversinggrill/griddlePlateovertousethereverseside:

1. Turn the temperature control dial to ‘OFF’.

2. Unplug the appliance from wall outlet.

3. Allow unit to cool down completely. (at least 30 minutes).

4. Remove the grill/griddle plate from the unit.

5. Thoroughly clean grill/griddle plate. (See Cleaning and Care).

6. Return the grill/griddle to the unit with the desired surface facing up.

7. Reconnect the plug into a standard electrical outlet.

Usingthekebabskewers:

1. Assemble the unit with the grill/griddle plate and drip tray in proper position. Slide skewer rack into place. Turn the temperature control dial to maximum setting “5”.

Note: the plate must be on the unit when using the skewers. Please keep in mind that it is very hot when the unit is operating.

2. Prepare your food according to your favourite recipe and slide food onto skewers.

3. Pull skewer rack half way towards you.

4. Place the skewers into the skewers slots so that the star-like shape at the handle ends of the skewers is inserted into the gear slots in the front end of the skewer rack.

5. Slide skewer rack back into place.

Note: When using large cubes of meat or fish, you may only be able to cook up to five kebabs at a time. Do not use more than 100 grams of food on each skewer.

6. Once all the skewers are in position, press the control switch to ON. The switch light will illuminated to indicate that the skewers have begun rotating.

7. To check if your kebabs are cooked, press the switch to stop skewers from turning and remove a kebab. If more time is needed, replace the skewer and press the skewer motor control switch to resume cooking.

Tips:

Lightly toast your hot dog buns on the grill for two minutes before cooking has finished. Cut the rolls in half and spread melted butter on them, then place them on the grill.

Brush any oil you use directly onto the food, not the pan.

The grill pan can be lined with parchment paper to cook fish if desired.

Make sure the griddle is hot before placing any food on it.

If you want to create the nice criss-cross effect on your griddled food, turn the food 90 degrees halfway through cooking on each side.

When grilling fish, use a large flat spatula to turn it over.

FIG 4 FIG 5


Meatonthereversiblegrill:

Cut meat into 1 inch cubes for kebabs.

Tender meat cuts, like sirloin, are generally more suitable for grilling than less tender meat cuts, such as rump. Less tender meat cuts can still be grilled, but may benefit from marinating beforehand.

Take steaks out of the fridge at least 60 minutes before grilling so that they can reach room temperature.

Cooking steak: Rub sea salt on each side of the steak to be cooked. For medium –rare steak, cook it for a few minutes per side and then use tongs to sear the perimeter. Brush the steaks with melted butter, and flip them over letting them sear for another few minutes. Repeat on the other side. Let the steaks rest for 4 – 5 minutes and sprinkle pepper on top.

See below table for suggested cooking times for cooking meat on the grill, on a medium – high heat:

NOTE: These times are approximate. Times can vary depending on the size, thickness and quantity of the recipe. Adjusting the temperature will also change the cooking times.

Seafoodonthereversiblegrill:

To cook prawns: Toss peeled prawn/shrimps with a mixture of baking soda and salt and let them rest for at least fifteen minutes. Slide your prawns onto the skewers so that they are tightly packed together, with no space between each one. This helps them to brown on the outside without going rubbery inside.

Dry the prawns before cooking them, either by blotting them with paper towels, or placing the skewers in the fridge for an hour before cooking, laying the skewers over the edge of a baking dish or bowl, so that they are fully elevated.

Brush the prawns with olive oil when you are ready to cook.

Turn the Reversible Kebab grill up to the highest heat and allow them to rotate on the skewer rack for 6 - 8 minutes, checking in between.

Serve with a squeeze of lemon and salt.

See below table for suggested cooking times for cooking fish on the grill, on a medium – high heat:

NOTE: These times are approximate. Times can vary depending on the size, thickness and quantity of the recipe. Adjusting the temperature will also change the cooking times.

Wash and dry vegetables that you wish to use.

Vegetables such as mushrooms and asparagus can be cooked whole on the grill pan.

Grill vegetables until they are tender and lightly charred all over.

Parboil potatoes, carrots and beets before grilling. Dry them off and brush with oil, then grill.

5TROUBLESHOOTING&FAQ’S

Questions Answers

Do I need to use oil when cooking meat or fish?

No. The Reversible Grill uses the natural fats and oils in the meat and fish. The fats/oils then run off into the drip tray, resulting in a much healthier way of cooking.

Do I need to place my food in the middle of the grill for it to cook?

No, the grill plate is heated consistently along its length, so you don’t need to worry about some food getting more heat than others.

My frozen chicken breasts are still pink inside but look cooked outside.

To make sure that meats and poultry are safely cooked through, be sure to thaw them before grilling.

My grill is not getting hot.

Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a suitable outlet. Check that the thermostat has is set and the temperature light is on.

There is smoke escaping from my grill.

When using the grill for the first time, it may produce some smoke. This is normal.
