Your perfect waffle starts with The Great American Waffle Iron, a hand finished piece made for the patriot, the family that enjoys quality food, the cook, the baker, the traditionalist, the historian, the story teller. Particularly suited for the person that loves to cook for those they love. Our updated artwork is now recessed. You may see some images on our website featuring our first production run with raised artwork. Functionality is the same. You will truly enjoy crafting the perfect waffle for people you love with this non-toxic, traditional, cast waffle iron. We preseason with grapeseed oil (certified Kosher) and do NOT use any PFOA's or Teflon. You will find great recipes on our website. An infrared thermometer (point and shoot) assists in your initial efforts to heat and cook at the preferred 400 degrees Fahrenheit temperature. With your right, open palm, simply lift the stay cool spring handles, then rotate. Rotating every minute or so keeps both paddles evenly heated.

The Great Belgian Waffle Iron is a commercial grade, hand finished, heavy duty waffle iron. Exactly like our GAWI. The Great Belgian WI shares many features with The Great American Waffle Iron. They both use the same base, the same ball joint, and the same stay cool spring handles. For waffle irons manufactured and shipped from our facility after July 15, the paddles are interchangeable. The Great Belgian WI produces a waffle that is 1 inch thick, compared to the GAWI that produces a half inch thick waffle. This waffle iron is a bit thicker, and a bit heavier. The entire assembly weighs in at 16 pounds. This mass makes for exceptionally even heating. Ideal cooking temperature is between 400-430. (Be sure to increase the heat a small amount after pouring your first waffle.) Using an infrared thermometer eliminates guesswork. With practice, though, many accomplished wafflers judge the heat of their waffle iron by the sizzle made with a few drops of water flicked onto the waffle iron. If you are an introvert and a “yes” person, don’t let friends and family know that you own this waffle iron. You will receive more invitations to come over and help make breakfast, dinner, etc. than you can handle. The Lion gracing the front of this waffle iron is inspired by the Belgian Coat of Arms. It holds symbolic meaning for Belgians like the shielded eagle holds for those of us in the USA. Start with a good waffle recipe from our website. If you have a great recipe that you’d like to share, please email it to us. (Yes, several of our product photos are set in the Grand Platz in Brussls.)

Our leather handle cover is produced in house and is a great helper when using your waffle iron or pulling your Jeweled Skillet from the oven. We produce these in house and are sure you will love them. (Yes, you can use them on other brands of cookware, too. We won't tell.) The design is a fold over seam design and is very ergonomic. There is stitching down one side and the bottom. The other side remains open so that the piece is semi-open and easier to use. We use the thickest leather we could source and still execute the fold. Product testers have been amazed at its resistance to heat. The 4.5 inch version works great with the waffle maker. It is useful with the skillet as well. The 5.5 inch handle cover is recommended if you have only purchased the skillet, it provides a fuller grip.

Our paring knife is made by Dexter Russel, one of the last main line producers of cutlery in the USA. Tony personally has a couple of their large cleavers for BBQ duty, and several spatulas, but the paring knife gets used multiple time a day.
