      Best Sausage!
      We have enjoyed many of the Johnsonville products. Recently we tried the Hot Italian Sausage. We are hooked! The sausage has just the right amount of spice without being overly hot. We grill them with small sweet peppers and serve them on pretzel rolls. They are SO delicious we could eat them every day! We are thrilled that we finally tried them! With any leftovers (should that ever be the case) we slice them and include them in an omelet with the peppers and mozzarella cheese. Thank you for such an excellent product!.

            Absolutely great until today
            Son had grill shipped to us as he bought one. We have loved it from day one. However, my husband attempted to cook sausage links today and the power (light) would not come on. We tried other outlets, read comments in book, made sure it was plugged in correctly - still no power to it. What do we do. Only had it since January. Thank you

                No jalapenos
                I bought a pack of jalapeno hot dogs and that is the second package in a month that did not have jalapenos in them. I am not complaining about the product I love them. Just wanted to let y'all know that thanks

                  Andouille Sausage
                  Tried Andouille sausage versus a competitor. Very Disappointing. Tastes more like a regular sausage. Lacks flavor.

                    FAST AND EASY TO USE
                    I just got mine and used it for the first time. It was a breeze to use. Love this thing and I'm not much of a gadget person. I'm hoping I can use other Johnsonville sausages in this one.

                      CONSTANT loude noise
                      Got it for Christmas used 1 time cleaned and put it up. Got it out to use today, all we get is loude noise. Very disappointing.

                        Great Product, Great Company!
                        Have had this for about 6 months now, it works perfectly with every type of pork, chicken, turkey, tofu and even simple sausage shaped ground meats! All of them cooked perfect every time! Virtually no smoke or smell in the house (especially if you lay a towel over the top while cooking). Super easy clean up. And get this, we somehow lost the little plastic drip tray :( Needless to say - I was not happy. Wife called up the company and they sent out a brand new replacement at NO COST! Received it just a few days later. What a great customer service response! You will not be disappointed with this product. To be fair, only (very) minor issues I would address in a future product release: 1. There is no OFF button, you need to unplug the unit to cancel cooking 2. Cord Management - cord is short, but I would prefer ones that lock in place when product is being stored Yes, these are super minor issues that really don't detract from the overall success of this unit.

                          Grill
                          We recently purchased the indoor sausage plus grill and love it so much we just purchased another one for our daughter and her family as a house warming gift. It's easy to clean as well. The only issue we have noticed us sometimes the brats can be a tad to long so that they don't get done on the ends. So we cook them a second time to get them done.

                            Average cooker
                            Bought it, tried it not satisfied. Cooking Johnsoville fresh brats, experienced uneven browning with the ends looking pale and undercooked.

                              Over cooks everything!
                              I have had it for a about 5 months know it seems to over cook everything i have to use a timer to cook things right 8 min for brats 6min for breakfast sausages if you use a timer it works ok.

                                The best dedicated appliance to cook sausage on the market!
                                I started grilling all types of sausage nearly 50 years ago, either on a charcoal or gas grill. As soon as I found the Johnsonville Sizzling Sausage Grill I bought one. This grill does a superlative job with every type of sausage I've grilled, better in my opinion, than outdoor grills. Being a clean freak, I'm am also impressed that the grill unit itself stays perfectly clean. Removing the grill plates and placing them in the dishwasher leaves them spotless after washing. The quick grilling speed easily allows grilling one batch after another when necessary.

                                  This is really great, I love how quick and easy to use. The taste of Johnsonville brats are great. The clean up is fast and easy. Really happy I bought it so that I can use it anytime of the year including snow and rain!

                                    Bought and returned 3 times. Every time there were loose and/or broken pieces. I think this could be a great product if more attention was put into materials and assembly.

                                      Never lasting gril
                                      I purchased two of these, gave one away as gift kept one for myself. I've used it four times to date in the past year. The plastic on top of the grill has split. (large separating crack). To date the other has not cracked because it has not been used. Very disappointed as it does a good job at what it does but what good is it if it will not last. I mean four uses and it cracks. The location of the crack tells me the plastic cannot take the heat it puts out.

                                        THE perfect brat (sausage)
                                        I've had my Sizzling Grill for a year. I use it one to two times a month, and it still looks brand new. Cleaning is a breeze. The sausages come out perfectly browned and juicy. I haven't used any other brand of sausages in it, but that's only because Johnsonville's are really the best tasting. Unfortunately, I live in an area where not all the 'flavors' are available to me. One thing I have noticed is the Sizzling Grill is a bit messy when the sausages contain cheese, still delicious. I would definitely recommend the Sizzling Grill Cook Book. There are some great, easy, tasty recipes in there. The quality of the grill is very good. It can sit upright for easier storage. I do a lot of grilling, even in the winter, and Johnsonville sausages, in my opinion, are best on a Weber. However, if Weber grilled brats are a 100, then brats made on the Johnsonville Sizzling Grill would be a 98...that's how good it is.

                                          New flavors
                                          Johnsonville are the only brats my family buys. We love trying the new flavors. Chipotle Monterrey has by far been our favorite! But of course we love them all!

                                              Best Brat Ever!
                                              I grew up in Milwaukee, now living in Cincinnati. Every fresh brat I ever had was over-cooked and dry, because most people are afraid of under cooking. This includes me! Most also cook on a fire that is too hot which splits the casing letting out all the juices. Last night I used the Sizzling Sausage grill for the first time and have to say best brat ever. It was juicy, I mean really juicy, since it cooked the proper amount of time and the casing was intact, holding in all those juices

                                                So Much Better Than Pan Cooking
                                                When I was in Wisconsin curling, I had to get this grill. It is so much better than pan cooking. Put them in the grill, turn it on, and 15 minutes they're done. Very easy to use and clean up is great because the plates come out. This was a WELL THOUGHT OUT engineered unit. High recommend!!!

                                                  Sizzler
                                                  First time use, all came out good! The Red Clip is not to my liking. Flimsy piece of plastic. I would recommend aa clip below built into the base with a spring that will go up as the sausage expands that the red thingamajig can latch onto.

                                                    Wonderful Product but there are things you must know
                                                    Cooks them absolutely perfect! The one caveat is that Johnsonville needs to do a better job of informing customers that they MUST use the buttons to put the grill plates back in. If you snap them in without using the buttons you're going to wear out the tab that holds them in place. They tell you about the button to remove the plates but gloss over it when showing you re-installing the plates in a way that seems to make it look like they "snap" in. Don't snap them in. Press the button and then push them in and release the button. Five Stars for the Grill though :)

                                                      Does exactly what it should .... for about 2 months, then won't stay on.
                                                      Loved this thing. Bought it for my husband's birthday. He loved it. Thought, yay!! Guess what our adult children are getting for Christmas? 10 uses later.... the darn thing won't stay on more than 5 seconds. Guess I'm gonna need to come up with something else for Christmas. I would not recommend this product to anyone. Ever.

                                                        It's pouring down rain and there's no access to my outdoor grill without getting soaked, but when the game is on and we're hungry for brats this happy little indoor grill saved the day! Quick to load, efficient to use, and easy to clean means there's no down time or missed plays due to being out back next to the grill...even if it wasn't raining. Love the ease and happy to have it in my family of cookers!

                                                          Bottom plate issues
                                                          After the second use, the bottom plate will not snap back into place. After reading some reviews, this seems to be a common issue. Extremely unhappy with product. The two uses I got out of it, the Brats were great!

                                                            Loved the grill
                                                            We bought this grill when it was first advertised on the Morning Blend TV show a couple years ago. We love it because it cooks the brats without the mess, and we can have brats in the winter time! There is just one issue, we put in weiswurst (a white, chubby sausage) the other night, a non Johnsonville brand. They fit in just fine, but 5 minutes into the cooking, I heard a loud noise. The locking handle had flown off and across the room. Not sure just what happened, perhaps the wurst expanded a little more than the lock could take? Any way, we cannot lock the covers together now, may have to buy a new grill. Just glad that no one was in the kitchen to get hit by the flying plastic.
