Review & How-to: Hamilton Beach Breakfast Sandwich Maker

[@Slakass55]

Thanks for the instructions, just picked one up for a mere 5 bucks from someone that bought it on impulse, used it once and decided to cut his losses. Brand new, not a scratch. But no manual, so without your video I couldn't have figured it out. Kids love this and my 12 yo wants to cook it by himself before school. This truly is delicious and this coming from someone that has been enjoying egg McMuffins for decades. Of course, I used my own home smoked back bacon (Canadian bacon for those in the US) so this certainly helped. Great invention.

Thank you! I haven’t used my sandwich maker in yrs and totally forgot the process. Thank you for a great primer.

This lil griddle has me eating breakfast every day! And THAT is healthy. I slice up mushrooms and put them on the egg level before I put anything else in there. With Cracked Pepper on top LOL

"....let it sit for 5 minutes,....................our 10 minutes are up...." LOL

[@eruantion]

I found this a bit down below... "Oops! I misspoke when I said 10 minutes. It should cook for 5 minutes!"

[@TJVergerII]

The Green lite cycles on and off to maintain the right cooking temp. If the green lite would stay on all the time it would burn the food. 😉

[@retrolady66]

Excellent tip on the egg seal!!

[@13Voodoobilly69]

I have one of those at work in my machine shop. I have used it multiple times at work for a couple of years now. Works great. My technique varies a bit from yours but it all gets you there in the end. Definitely a cheap gadget that actually works pretty well.

[@jennys.6250]

Thank you so much. I brought one of these and couldn’t figure out how to use it. Thanks to your video, problem solved. Thank you.

[@LugStylinWithSonya]

I luv watching your videos. They make me smile. Your voice is so relaxing and you have such great ideas :)

[@wendoloniavideos]

Thank you!

[@hrhbear]

I have the same model and I buy the pre cut round sausage pattys and cook them first on the bottom plate and then remove them prior to putting the buns and egg on and it works great!

[@wendoloniavideos]

Sounds delicious!

[@13Voodoobilly69]

I do the same when using sausage. I mix it up with ham and bacon also. It’s a great little junk gadget that definitely earns its keep.

[@AZCardCollector1]

I actually use store bought croissants and shape them with a cookie cutter. Put that on the bottom, then bacon, cheese, and mix egg with salt and pepper, and add it, then cook 4 minutes and add top croissant and cook one additional minute. Could also use pre made pancakes for McGriddles

[@wendellbell6164]

Well explained video. Thank you. Just bought one today.

[@sunnyand7777]

@WendyCopley I just discovered this little wonder...lol! Like you, I bought it for my son. Those frozen bkft sandwiches get to be pricey... he really likes the convience factor! As a mom & a nurse, I would like to see him eat healthier. This may be a solution to controlling what is going into the sandwiches 🤔. Thank you for these simple and most helpful tips. 😊🌻

[@Matt-po8jf]

Do we cook the sandwich for 5 mins, or 10 mins? sorry if you stated in the video, but state 5 and 10, just double checking before I use mine, and burn my sandwich. Thanks in advance

[@wendoloniavideos]

5 minutes! I accidentally said 10 in the video.

[@melrichardson2392]

Very well done,great presentation.

[@TrumpTrain86]

The scrambled tip was great. I actually came here looking for that tip. lol

[@salvatoretrifiletti1858]

I only paid $5 at the thrift shop

[@lisamarielund6292]

Me too. Five bucks on half off day. Still in box and unopened and brand new.

[@kathyfann]

Looks wonderful and did you cook for 10 minutes or 5

[@wendoloniavideos]

5 minutes!

[@CindyGoots-cl3uc]

I love mine with a sausage patty. Spray Pam on the egg plate.

[@1337voltronBOT]

5:23 "Now your just gunna let it sit for 5 minutes...." "Now our 10 minutes are up"

[@wendoloniavideos]

I misspoke when I said 10 minutes. It should cook for 5 minutes!

[@1337voltronBOT]

@@wendoloniavideos thanks. I figured it was 5 but was confused.

[@wendoloniavideos]

@@1337voltronBOT I updated the video description, so hopefully that will avoid confusion in the future. Thanks for letting me know!

[@bryanpowell904]

Is the Drew and Cole one much the same? Cant seem to get the Hamilton one in the UK, withought paying crazy taxes etc.

[@wendoloniavideos]

I’m sorry, but I’m not familiar with that one. Maybe someone else can weigh in?

[@cas4646]

Do you find that the bread gets soggy from being on the egg?

[@wendoloniavideos]

I wouldnt say "soggy" exactly, but the egg kind of cooks into the bread. It's crispy on the outside, but the inside is soft because of that.

[@TJVergerII]

@@wendoloniavideos no soggy? Just leave the top UP until you see the edge of the egg becomes firm. Then slide the the top on. TA, DAaa

[@maximus9092]

Thank You! I Love Wendy Copley´s way! :)

[@philip4022]

Does anybody know how to turn it off or do I just have to unplug it whenever I'm not using it?

[@wendoloniavideos]

You’re correct- you have to unplug it to turn it off.

[@gloriataitano8416]

Thank you thank you

[@doryhousman2171]

Do you have to use bread

[@michaelsevens]

@Wendy... give me the bat ..Wendy....give me the bat, give me the bat wendy😳😱🤔😮😄😉😏😁🙂 I kid.. I kid... anyways... thank you. I have one of these and had not used it in awhile. So I wanted to know I was up to Par. And now I am. Just have a few suggestions for those who just got one. When lifting the lids at anytime, be very careful in making sure the middle slide out stays closed. So just hold the outer plastic handle on the middle plate, because it could slide out and you end up getting burned. If it does slide out just let it. If you try to grab it and you touch the hot griddle it's going to burn you real bad. This happens before ingredients and after all food has been taken out. So after the middle griddle with the egg is done cooking and you slide the middle griddle out for the bun and egg to drop on bottom bun. As you lift the top use the plastic handle to move the Griddle back over. Be careful the rings and middle griddle can come right out of what holds it. Sorry I know this is allot. Also, I use Pam Butter Spray on all the griddles. Though I've actually switched to KerryGold Irish butter. Its the best. I melt it down in a microwave cup. Then I get a brush or paper towel if you don't have a brush. And wipe it on all three griddles after its preheated. Then add all ingredients. One more thing. When you clean it, do not use any detergent, it ruins the non stick. Use wet paper towels. 3 or 4 folded into one. Clean the top griddle. Then the middle griddle and the sides of the rings that hold everything in. Then the bottomed griddle. The Maker needs to be hot when doing this, make sure the middle ring does not slide out. Afterwards take out the removeable rings. Run it under hot water. Oh, make sure the wet paper towels don't burn as you clean. It doesn't take much to clean it. Sounds like allot but it isn't. Be careful when lifting rings out of the maker... I cannot stress this enough. That middle griddle likes to slide out. Clean the spring and backside of grill.

Also need demo with 2 eggs used

[@quinnjones2886]

Sooo 10mins or 5mins, you said both

[@wendoloniavideos]

Oops! I misspoke when I said 10 minutes. It should cook for 5 minutes!

[@noheader]

Still can't find a good video on this, no one use English muffins anymore. Bagels hold better so I want to see a test with Bagels and sausage egg and cheese.

[@thereallyst]

I found one.... kzbin.info/www/bejne/gIjLkIpjfZh-Y5Y

Mine is black will it work the same lol

[@salvatoretrifiletti1858]

Can I make pancakes

[@trollzone1]

It’s between $18-$21 at Walmart. Don’t buy it for $30-$40.

[@hikki94]

so you bought yourself a gift for your son's christmas gift..?

[@wendoloniavideos]

Sometimes parents miss the mark on Christmas gifts, but one could argue that having someone make you breakfast sandwiches a few times a week is even better than doing it yourself…

[@hikki94]

@@wendoloniavideos Honestly I can't judge the "goodness" of a Christmas gift based on my experiences. If your son loved it, I'm impressed by his selflessness and happy that it works for your family's flow.

[@TALKCalgary]

I can't believe anyone would actually use something like this. I guess some people just have more money than brains.

[@CindyGoots-cl3uc]

It is cheaper than an egg McMuffin

[@victoriajoss2067]

Is it necessary to use infantile words like, “yummy”?

[@wendoloniavideos]

Yes, it is. Is it necessary for you to leave condescending comments on KZbin videos?

[@russylzalewski954]

Forget your meds?

[@victoriajoss2067]

Thanks for dropping by. The response is pretty much as infantile as the word referenced.
