The ridged version of Kuhn Rikon's Allround Grill Pan adds deep grill ribs to the same 27 x 27cm uncoated stainless steel platform. The ribs create distinctive grill marks on meat, fish, and vegetables while allowing excess fat to drain away from the food, which gives you the flavour and appearance of outdoor grilling on an indoor hob. A full-surface square induction base distributes heat evenly into the corners, the pan is oven safe to 240°C, and the stay-cool handle keeps things comfortable during cooking. A matching square glass lid is available separately.
- Deep grill ribs: The raised ridges create distinctive grill marks on food and allow excess fat to run off into the channels between them.
- 18/10 stainless steel, uncoated: Made from robust 18/10 stainless steel with no coating, so it handles high temperatures without any risk to the cooking surface.
- Square 27 x 27cm cooking surface: The square shape provides more usable grilling area than a round pan of the same width, fitting more food in a single layer.
- Full-surface square induction base: The induction-compatible base covers the full square footprint, ensuring even heat distribution right into the corners.
- Oven safe to 240°C: The all-steel construction is oven safe to 240°C, so you can start on the hob and finish in the oven without changing pans.
What Customers Ask About This Product
How does this differ from the smooth version?
The cooking surface is the key difference. The ridged version has deep grill ribs that create char lines and allow fat to drain away from the food, giving a grilled appearance and flavour. The smooth version has a flat surface that's better for deglazing, making sauces, and general frying where full contact with the base matters.
Is this pan dishwasher safe?
It is described as dishwasher suitable, but hand washing is recommended. If the pan is very dirty, soak it in warm water for 10 to 15 minutes before cleaning. The ridges can trap residue, so a brush is useful for getting between them.
Can I use this on all hob types?
Yes, the full-surface induction base makes it compatible with induction hobs as well as gas, electric, and ceramic.
Is a lid included?
No, the lid is not included. A matching square glass lid is available to purchase separately.
In our experience...
Grill ribs do more than just leave marks. The ridges lift the food above the base of the pan, which means fat and juices run off into the channels below rather than pooling around the food. This creates drier, more intense contact heat on the raised surfaces, which is what produces the charred flavour associated with outdoor grilling.
A ridged pan is not a substitute for a flat frying pan. Ridged pans are designed for searing and grilling, not for tasks like frying eggs, making sauces, or cooking anything that needs full contact with the base. If you need both capabilities, consider owning both the smooth and ridged versions.
Preheating is even more important with a ridged pan. The ridges need to be hot enough to sear on contact, or the food will stick rather than release cleanly. Give the pan a few minutes to come up to temperature before adding any food, and avoid the temptation to move things around before they've had time to develop a crust.
Cleaning between the ridges is easier than it looks. A stiff brush or a brief soak in warm water deals with most residue between the ribs. Avoid using metal scourers, which can scratch the stainless steel, and let the pan cool before washing to prevent warping.
Uncoated stainless steel develops more flavour over high heat. Unlike non-stick surfaces, uncoated steel lets the Maillard reaction happen properly at high temperatures. This is the chemical reaction that creates the deep, complex flavours you get from properly seared meat, and it only happens above temperatures that most non-stick coatings can't safely reach.

Care & Use Instructions
Washing: Dishwasher suitable, but hand washing is recommended. If the pan is very dirty, soak it in warm water for 10 to 15 minutes before cleaning. Use a brush to clean between the grill ribs.
Cooking tips: Preheat the pan thoroughly before adding food. For the best grill marks, press food gently onto the ridges and avoid moving it until it releases naturally. Let the pan cool before washing to prevent warping.
