Product Description
The Victoria cast iron burger press is the perfect combination of tradition and functionality. Designed to last a lifetime, it will become one of your essential kitchen tools for grilling burgers and other types of meat, both on the grill and in any other kitchen.
To season cast iron cookware, you must apply a layer of oil or fat and heat it, preferably for 15 minutes in the oven or on the stove, until a light smoke appears. This protects the iron, prevents it from rusting, and maintains it in good condition. It is important not to scrub the base with strong pressure so as not to remove this layer of oil (patina).
When Washing
There are several correct and effective methods for cleaning your cast iron cookware to ensure it stays in good condition. You can use mild soaps to remove excess food from the surface and, if necessary, use a steel wool sponge; alternatively, you can scrub with some coarse salt to create the friction needed for cleaning. After washing, it is important to carefully dry the entire surface of your utensil with a dry cloth and then apply a layer of oil or fat.
It is important to note that seasoned cast iron is not dishwasher safe, while enameled cast iron is completely dishwasher safe; however, this significantly removes the patina that forms during cooking from oils and fats, which provides a stronger natural and healthy non-stick effect for every preparation.

Cast iron recipes
This is the perfect product for making panini and grilled cheese sandwiches! I use this with a 9½" Matfer carbon steel pan and it's the perfect size combination! Highly recommended!
This is a good quality press - pre seasoned in the normal lodge style. With the nubs, it is a bit harder to clean, I would have preferred it to be smooth on the bottom side.The handle can be removed by squeezing on the sides. With the handle removed, you can pre-heat the press in the over or over a flam, then re-attach the handle without having to touch the press.Squeezing the handle also allows it to rotate the sideways for storage - otherwise it's locked in the 90-degree position and can be pressed down on with a good amount of force.It measures roughly 6.375 inches in diameter. Made in Columbia.
This cast iron grill press by Victoria was exactly what I was looking for to compliment my cast iron skillet. Now I can get a better sear on my burgers. This press is large enough to cover three .33 pound burgers at once. This also work out on the grill too. This is easy to clean using my chain mail scouring pad. Just make sure you dry is thoroughly so it doesn't rust.
I know it says bacon press on it but it works great for burgers as well, may take a little time to season it perfect so nothing sticks but it'll be worth it.This will be something you pass down to your kids and they're kids even. It's built super well with longevity in mind.Do yourself a favor and follow the care instructions to a T. If you can do that then this will last forever. It's weighted really well so it'll also of course be perfect for bacon.All in all I love it and can't wait to use it more! Gladly recommend!
Perfect size for smash burgers, even great for bacon! Easy to clean and season. Handle folds away nicely for storage. Works perfectly and would highly recommend!
Good fit with my other cast iron cook ware. I like the wire handle versus the wooden handle but that is just a preference. I see they also have a wood handle rectangular press. Light nubs, good weight, seems to press evenly. Will use this on anything that can benefit from a press while cooking. I especially will like it for outdoor cooking when I want the added benefit of quicker cooking from help of press.

Buon prodotto risponde perfettamente all’uso
La presse est lourde robuste avec une belle finition.Le manche pliable est très pratique pour la ranger.Je recommande vraiment la version en fonte émaillée qui est facile d’entretien.
Great for making my smash burgers and very easy to clean
Perfecto. Fácil de limpiar y guardar también al tener el mango desmontable.
Makes great toasties (paninis)!
Received the round press today.Opened the box and inspected the press.It appears to be well made.Only one flaw that caught my immediate attention.It didn't come with a d**n handle.
The only fault is that the handle should tilt to flatten without removing it entirely. It's too tall to fit in my drawer with the handle attached.
Heavy duty without being too heavy. Looking forward to smashing lots of burgers. This will make burgers easier to cook indoors as well. I sprayed with cooking spray for easy release.
This is a really nice press and does what it's made to do.I thought I'd rather have one with a wood handle, but I actually like this one very much.The build quality is nice, it's heavy, and works great with burgers and bacon.Recommend!
I highly recommend this cast iron press. I love the look and how the handle folds down for storage!
This press is pretty good. Wire handle makes stays cool, The size is 6.5 inches round, the bottom texture prevents slippage which makes a good burger press.This press made in Colombia. The cast iron is not thick like regular press, the quality is good. Great for burgers, bacons. It also pretty easy to clean and season. It is a great tool for cooking on my outdoor grill.

CAST IRON NOT CONFIGURED PROPERLY FOR ASSEMBLY. I RETURNED ITEM.
Just got this yesterday. This morning I placed it on a cast iron pan to heat it up a bit. I spread some vegetable oil on it and placed it back on the pan for a few minutes. I set it aside and placed 3 bacon strips on the pan then placed the press on top. When I went to turn it a small bit of bacon stuck but with little pulling it came off. I dipped the press in the greased then placed it back on. It never stuck again. The best part is that I can season it again in the oven with the handle removed. Just pinch the handle where it is connected into the press and the handle slips out easily. I didn't want to buy one with wood. I have learned my lesson with allowing people to use wood handled tools of mine. Yes, the handle got hot but it won't burn and I can remove it to wash with soap. Oh yes, incase you were wondering...the bacon was not completely covered by the press but it still laid flat in the end. I believe it actually cooked faster with the hot press on top. Can't wait to use this camping!
If you're looking for a great bacon press, you'd be unlikely to find one as good as this one.*Perfect weight/heavy cast iron.*Clever design handle.*Meticulously seasoned with Flaxseed oil.*Nice and WIDE but not too wide.*Outstanding quality.Whether you're making a Smash burger, frying up some bacon, making a curling porch chop relax, or pressing a good old grilled cheese,...you will not be disappointed in the Victoria Cast Iron press. It's the bomb! 5++++ stars.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
We tested more than a dozen different oils and fats to get the best performance right from the start. Flaxseed oil, when used correctly, has always proven to be the best oil for base coats. This is due to several factors:
1. Polymerization: Flaxseed oil is a drying oil, which means it polymerizes more easily than non-drying oils, such as grapeseed oil, another popular oil for seasoning. This property allows it to form a durable, resistant, and non-stick seasoning layer on cast iron.
2. Smoke point: Flaxseed oil has a lower smoke point (around 225°F or 107°C). While this can be a disadvantage for cooking, it is actually beneficial for the seasoning process. The lower smoke point allows the oil to polymerize at lower temperatures, creating a strong bond with the cast iron surface.
3. Fatty acid composition: Flaxseed oil is high in alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 fatty acid, which is relatively stable compared to the polyunsaturated fats found in grapeseed oil and other popular seasoning oils. This stability can result in a longer-lasting, more resilient seasoning on your cast iron cookware.
4. Food safety: Flaxseed oil, when properly polymerized, forms a stable and safe surface for cooking. The polymerized layer reduces the risk of oxidation and the formation of harmful free radicals during cooking, ensuring a healthier culinary experience.
Our cast iron comes high-temperature seasoned and ready to cook. Here are our recommendations:
- Hand wash and dry completely before the first use.
- It is normal for food to stick to the surface of cast iron cookware during the first few uses. To prevent this, we recommend using a small amount of cooking oil or fat until the seasoning strengthens and settles. You can use any edible fat, such as vegetable oil, nut oil, lard, or butter.
- When cooking with cast iron, it is important to use the proper temperature to prevent food from sticking. Cast iron retains heat very well, so we recommend using low or medium-low heat for most foods. Delicate foods, such as proteins, cook best on low heat.
- To protect the seasoning, we also recommend avoiding acidic foods like tomatoes, vinegar, and citrus until the seasoning has had time to develop.
- If you want to give your cast iron cookware an extra layer of seasoning, some people choose to season it one or more times before use. This is not necessary if you take good care of the cookware, but it can help create a thicker seasoning layer in less time. Ultimately, the decision is yours.
Although it can be exciting to start using your new cookware, it is important to avoid common mistakes that can damage the seasoning and cause problems when cooking. To prevent these errors, we recommend:
- If you make a mistake and rust appears or food sticks to the pan, don't worry: cast iron is durable and can be restored with proper care and maintenance. To learn more about how to re-season your cookware, check the instructions included in the packaging or on this website.
- Remember that, as long as your cast iron cookware is not broken, it can always be recovered and returned to its original state.
- With proper care and attention, your cast iron cookware will provide you with many decades of reliable use.
