We all love cheese and toast and that is why so many of us love cheese toasties. A cheese toastie is the ultimate comfort food and are really easy to make. However when it comes to cooking a cheese toastie it can get slightly messy if using an electric cheese toastie machine with cheese and butter oozing out from the sides. Thankfully Stovetop Toastie Maker by Jean Patrique has made cooking a cheese toastie that much simpler and cleaner.
I was gifted a PR product* of Jean Patrique Stove Toastie Maker to review. It requires no electricity, it is portable and can be used indoors or outdoors either on a gas stove, electric hob, over a campfire or BBQ.

Cheese toasting indoors or even outdoors
Upon receiving my Stovetop Toastie Maker I was instantly impressed by the design, weight, long heat resistant handle, depth for the sandwich and non stick element. Plus as it needs no electricity plus being portable it can be used either indoors or outdoors. I used mine on my gas hob, but it can also be used over electric and ceramic hobs plus out over an open fire or BBQ.
I love cheese toasties but I hate cooking them as whenever I have used any electric cheese toastie appliances cheese and butter has always seemed to leak everywhere out of the machine. However thanks to the design and style of Jean Patrique Stovetop Toastie Maker cooking a cheese toastie has become that much simpler.
This easy to use Stovetop Toastie Maker has a great depth to it meaning you can pack a loaded sandwich filled with cheese and anything else easily within. Plus no oil/butter is needed thanks to the non stick of the product. As it has great heat retention the toasting distributed well. So within minutes I had a perfectly cooked cheese toastie.
I made my cheese toastie simply using two slices of bread, and three cheeses of Cheddar, Red Leicester and Emmental cheese. The bread toasted well, creating pretty griddled lines and the cheese held within the bread and melted well.
Don’t just take my word for it watch my video on Instagram.
Plus when it came to cleaning it was super easy to clean as there are no electrical elements to worry about.
Also dishwasher safe as no electrical elements to worry about.
Verdict
This portable Stovetop Toastie Maker which measures 38 x 15 x 3.3cm is one of the best cheese toasties I have ever used and now own. Why? as it was so much easier than using an electric toaster. Cooking within minutes and no mess thanks to it’s great depth and non stick coating this portable Stovetop Toastie Maker was a delight to use.
Also what I loved about this Stovetop Toastie Maker is that it can be used not just at home on the stove but also can be used when outside over an open camp fire or even a BBQ so you can enjoy a toastie when going camping.
The only thing I would point out though is as it is not electric there is no timer to indicate when the toastie might be ready. However after using a few times I soon had a rough idea of when my toastie might be done to my liking. Also one other thing to point out I found that the outside metal scratched quite easily. However apart from those little issues this portable toastie has been the easiest to use, healthy and easy to clean.
So if you love cheese toasties or know of anyone who does then I highly recommend this portable one. Plus as mentioned the beauty about this product is that you can use at home or out camping as who wants to eat baked beans time and time again, not I.
Costs £19.99 and comes in silver, black or copper.
