PANINI PRESS

Mr. Dog Poop: Today I’m cooking with Mr. Dog poop. Ah! Can we just do this again? Can we do it again? Oh, we're already live? All right, just edit this out later. Mr. Dog Poop here with Jeff Macolino for the man show. Today we're going to be reviewing a panini press. Something every man dreams of getting their wife. So we got these. I want to say it's around $35. So our budget is going up. In the third episode, yesterday we had a $25 donut maker, and today we got a $35 panini press. Why don't you open yours up Jeff and tell us what you got?

Jeff Macolino: All right.

Mr. Dog Poop: Oh yeah we got to talk about it, we getting paid for this. No, we bought these. Jeff went out and he got a job, a part-time job at McDonald's and we got the money together and we bought these.

Jeff Macolino: Yes. Oh, all right. Well, that thing's big. All right, here we go.

Mr. Dog Poop: Stainless steel?

Jeff Macolino: Yeah, stainless steel. It's got a ‘caution hot’ little sticker here.

Mr. Dog Poop: Well we know what that's like.

Jeff Macolino: Yeah, we learned our lesson. We’re going to try not to burn ourselves or make a big mess on the desk today. So good luck.

Mr. Dog Poop: I may have just thrown some pieces of it away.

Jeff Macolino: You know what this thing here on the bottom right here is actually set up to catch any drippings to come out the bottom. So this should help with the mess. Did a cleaning lady come and get your desk taken care of?

Mr. Dog Poop: Okay. So right now I’ve got on my desk a little black thing so I don't know what it came from but this thing appears to be falling apart. Hopefully that doesn't end up in our food. Oh, that was gonna end up in our food, just landed on our food. This is a lot smaller than I expected. It's a bigger cord?

Jeff Macolino: Maybe slightly bigger than the donuts’ but not a lot of wiggle room here.

Mr. Dog Poop: Well Jeff you're used to small things so it shouldn't really bother you.

Jeff Macolino: I’m used to working in tight spaces.

Mr. Dog Poop: So, 35 bucks. I mean, I feel like if we did read the instructions we'd probably find out a lot about it that we don't know.

Jeff Macolino: Yeah see the so the power light here…

Mr. Dog Poop: Oh look at this, it goes down like that.

Jeff Macolino: See that power lights on?

Mr. Dog Poop: Oh you already have it on?

Jeff Macolino: Oh I plugged it in and that light came on. So there's also no button just like yesterday

Mr. Dog Poop: But you understand it's going to get hot.

Jeff Macolino: Are you supposed to let it get hot, first? I would imagine. I'm gonna actually look at this to prevent a fire here. Let's see.

Mr. Dog Poop: We didn't have a fire yesterday; we're not having one today.

Jeff Macolino: Damn it! I forgot something. I don't know how to read.

Mr. Dog Poop: I guess this is a dual-action grill where you can do, flatten it out.

Jeff Macolino: Get it flat like that.

Mr. Dog Poop: Yeah, you can get a flap. There's a button on the side, on the handle.

Jeff Macolino: Oh okay, yeah.

Mr. Dog Poop: Yeah, and you can flatten that out and then cook something on it.

Jeff Macolino: I did see in the instructions it said that it may smell like it's on fire the first couple of times you use it.

Mr. Dog Poop: Great.

Jeff Macolino: It does smell like fire I went ahead and plugged it.

Mr. Dog Poop: That's what happened to us yesterday. I'm gonna get the cord in. We got a 50,000-watt generator outside plugged in so we don't blow the power in here again.

Jeff Macolino: Yeah you want to see my pretty pre-cooked food here? There we go. I got some red onions, some peppers, and some bacon cooked up and ready to go.
