[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was excited about it I Give this salt block a try for cooking meat for a twist on flavor. It definitely adds to the flavor and allows you to use Less seasoning on the meat. Was fairly easy to get clean after use as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very cool way to cook, grill and even serve hot or cold food on. We had never even heard of this before now and we are impressed with its many uses. It's not hard at all to use or to clean. After a few uses you'll be a pro. It needs to be heated slowly to prevent it from breaking. It cooks evenly and quickly. It adds flavor that gets better over time similar to a cast iron. It's almost like having a flat top for my grill that also adds flavoring. It's a great conversation starter and a way to wow your guests as well. With proper use, cleaning and storing it'll last a good while.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have loved having this thing around! I've been using it in my oven and on the grill! It cooks everything to perfection and leaves a nice taste that I wouldn't get without it. It's simple to use because you literally just lay your food on it. It is also simple to clean. You just have to Scrub it alittle which is fine. All the left on food comes right off. This thing is HEAVY so if you have issues lifiting I'd say to pass but otherwise I recommend this product for everyday use too!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect for preparing and cooking seafood and anything else you have in mind. Conducts heat for a efficient cook throughout the food for an evenly cooked meal. You can bake almost anything on these, including cookies!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I hadn't ever used one of these blocks before getting this one. The block itself is pretty substantial and hefty. I baked fish on it and the fish came out tasting amazing. I may be an addict with this thing. I have also tried steaks and those came out amazing also. I definitely recommend good quality gloves to take it out of the oven though, because it gets super hot. Since it is pretty heavy, it can be a little scary to try and get it out of the oven. My food didn't taste saltier, it just had a great flavor.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this salt block. Perfect heft to it, great for cooking vegetables or shrimp on it, definitely a staple for the summer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife and I have recently been experimenting a little more with our culinary adventures. We decided to try using this Himalayan Salt block with our latest seafood dish. It turned out amazing! Highly recommended! It also looks great in the kitchen as a bonus.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We got this pink Himalayan salt black from trying sampling to try, I cooked fish on it, and it gave it just a good fresh flavor, we will use it for many years to come, and I like the idea that pink Himalayan salt is actually really good for you.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Rather than as a serving plate, I utilized the "Natural Himalayan Salt Block by Outset" (dimensions: 12x8x1.5") as a cooking plate. The deep pink colored salt block with its one-of-a-kind appearance, comes with clear cooking and cleaning instructions. Initially, I tested the salt block as a curing cooktop. After simply chilling the salt block in the refrigerator for 4 hours, the thinly sliced fish strips (salmon & tuna) placed directly onto the salt slab cured efficiently and slowly with a hint of salt taste. Later I experimented it as a cooking plate; as instructed the salt slab was heated in the oven (electric) by placing the dry salt block in the middle rack and turning the heat to 200 degrees Fahrenheit. When the oven reached 200 degrees I removed the slab, let it cool for 15 minutes, later returned it to oven and set the temperature to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (I assume the gradual heating is minimize the possible expansion of any moisture trapped inside that would crack the slab if heated too quickly.) After additional 15 minutes, once the salt slab was thoroughly heated, placed the salt slab on a heatproof surface and tossed EVO oiled sliced chicken and vegetables directly on the heated slab that drizzled and cooked within minutes. The salt slab retained the heated temperature for about 20 minutes and the appearance of the white spots after subjected to heat returned to their original pink color when the slab cooled. Furthermore, clean up was easy with a damp paper towel removing any food bits after salt block had cooled. In all the Natural Himalayan Salt Block Cooking Plate by Outset is an aesthetic, efficient, natural cooktop creating a unique experience.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The block is beautiful, the colors and the way the light shines through it are memorizing. In terms of practicality, I enjoy serving food on this block (cold and hot), for added flavor and presentation. I've yet to try cooking with the block, as it can retain heat extremely well - I plan on beginning to cook regularly meats and vegetables on it directly.
