Our PO did try it. There are two scorch rings on the underside of the
cover, and it is mildly warped. She said, "it was a BIG mistake, never
try it". The metal is too thin to disperse the heat properly.

She said the pancakes near the flame burned black, while those outside
the flame area didn't cook at all. It is nearly the only blemish in our
Westy, and you could tell she (PO) was really embarrassed about it.

...... Subject: burner cover

Chris,

you probably already know this but that burner cover is actually a
griddle
for
pancakes and bacon and whatever else you ca think of....the drip pattern
and
hole that leads down to the sink basin are the clues.....I found out
quite
by accident.

Has anyone actually tried this?  There is a big disclaimer above the
stove saying that this is a lid only, not for cooking.  I've figured it
is so thin it would probably warp real good if heated, but it would be
nice if it will actually work as a grill.  As I asked, has anyone
actually used it that way and what were the results?

I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I am
not sure that you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.
