That looks a bargain, we have had a raclette for years, purchased in Holland. Its good fun for entertaining, like having an indoor barbee, as you can imagine great hilarity with folk accusing others of nicking their meat etc.
Couple of things we have learnt over the years, better to use smaller pieces of meat rather than a stonking chop! We usually have a mix of different sorts and cut them up, including homemade mini burgers. Pancakes can be grilled in the little pan underneath (scrummy with melted brie!). Light candles in the room, they seem to absorb some of the fatty smoke.
Really what you cook is down to your own imagination, at typical Raclette table in my house would have.
Meat (lots of) of any description, it is preferable to have better quality boneless. Cheese of any description. Tomatoes, Peppers, Mushrooms, Salades and sauces. Sliced bananas, thinly sliced french stick (for toasting). Pancake mix.
and then like Debbie, chuck it all in the dishwasher at the end. If the top is a bit burnt soak it in a washing machine tablet. Personally I wouldnt take it camping cos we like playing with the cadac, however I suppose you could as the metal ones are not that heavy but I wouldnt think it would be practical for everyday cooking.
Clare...P.S I want to buy another one just cos it looks such a bargain...loks like someone may get one for xmas!
