Shame, would have been nice if you were a bit more thankful and helping instead of being useless and contributing just 1 deal to this site.

Thank you again SamSungTab for sharing!

Your point may have had more weight if you could spell..........

It must be difficult...
Otherwise - you would have posted more than one deal... :neutral_face:

What if I had "included" the seller in the "title"? :wink:

To defrost thin minute steaks .. Slide one between the cheeks of your bum ,put on your tight Lycra then go on a 10 minute brisk walk.. Job done.

You can use a frying pan too - but the ridges in a griddle pan help :wink:
But yes - is a great use for a griddle pan, if not 'griddling' at that time.
I've got enough stuff in my kitchen without another tray/gadget/thing.

this thread has given me food cancer. I'm certain I'm going to die of horrific poisoning. I'll never eat again :laughing:

Perhaps it's an attempt to reduce the blood-pressure of all the HUKD psychopaths that are ready to go out and commit mass-murder over spelling mistakes and/or a difference of opinion in how to best defrost steak and chicken...

Really no need for this.
It's thermo-dynamics: heat-conduction.
Simply place the meat onto a heat-conducting surface, e.g. a griddle pan.
It will conduct heat from the surrounding area and help defrost the food quicker.
The ridges of a griddle pan help any water/moisture escape underneath.

Why has this been expired???

Deal is still on.

Ordered it...great reviews on Amazon...

Logged in to find i had 1325 Rakuten points... freebie!!

I get frozen steaks from Donald Russell which are much better than any I ever got from traditional butchers

why would you want to defrost it, it cooks beautifully from frozen, I dry fry my steak and a tiny bit of oil for chicken ..
???

I just wrap mine up in a heavily stained tea-towel and get the dog to sleep on it...

I,ve had one of these for 15 years and use it most days it is brill.

check your oven it may have a defrost setting as well ( symbol = * )

Just uses the oven fan to keep air circulating across the frozen food to help it defrost quicker.

Ok, so now I know.

I've had one like this for 15+ years, they really are good. No idea how the science side of it works though.

Stick frozen steak in a sealed bag and lower into COLD water and leave for a few hrs. Should defrost it.
On no account use hot water as bacteria will start to grow on the meat.
For prawns and shrimps, put them in a colander/sieve and run COLD water directly over the them 'till defrosted.

Same price from Amazon Your text here

Does it take batteries or 12v DC? :smile:

What's wrong with just chucking stuff on a plate in a warm room?
Costs NOWT.

I fell for this hoax twenty years ago. This should be as cold as the meat it purports to thaw "magically". It's nothing more than a black aluminium slab. As has been previously mentioned, if you're averse to defrosting by microwave, use the cold running water method. Seriously guys, save your money

Pointless gadget I suspect.

I always defrost fish and meat (individual portions) in a tightly fitting sealed/tied plastic bag in a sink or bowl of warm/hot tap water- sometimes stirring, and changing the hot water after 5 mins or so or if it cools significantly.

As long as you immediately cook and use the food without letting it hang around in warm water for too long,this seems to be safe. The defrosting is so quick that bacteria don't spend long enough at dangerous temperatures to multiply dangerously.

This only works for thin cuts, Chicken breasts etc, but they defrost in not much over 10 mins. Slow defrosting may leave the food in dangerous temperature ranges for significantly longer.

As always, do your own safety research, but I've always done this without issue.

I'm waiting for them to make one out of graphene :smiley: It seems it conducts heat about 20 times quicker than aluminium
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_thermal_conductivities

I bought one of these about 20 years ago they used to advertise it by using ice cubes defrosting on it. Those years ago it's was rubbish and a waste of money. Looked the same design as this one.

I had one of these a long time ago, Only used it a few times.
It's fun if you put an ice cube onto it. Melts like it is a hot plate.
Its a plate of painted aluminium.
The reason I ditched it was that unless the item you are using is FLAT (A Steak, Chop, Bacon) for instance, it's useless.

It only draws heat away from anything that is in direct contact with it. Useless for joints and chickens.

Even flat items can be a problem can be a problem if they are curved from freezing.

Also, the plate cools down quickly, and becomes less effective.

Ditched it pretty quickly.

Or.....not a sad act who sits on hotUKdeals all day.

Saw they had another version with edging and pop up guard, will be handy for summer, ive gone for that one, still hot tho

I have one of these for years. They are really good, highly recommended.

Back in stock. Just ordered - thanks OP

And you sound like a right thickie if it's taken you this long to think of an answer

for those who dont realise it, the "magic is that metal is a good conductor of heat. Tt works the same if you put the meat on any metal surface.

I have this from an Amazon deal last week. It works. Defrosted a pork chop in 55 minutes. Also did the ice cube test- put one on the metal plate and one on a normal plate. The vonchef cube starts melting immediately.

Top item and great price.

Have had one of these for years, be lost without it. My sausages are sitting on it aa i type, forgot to take them out of freezer earlier

You sound like a grade A prat to me

Quidco as well

However currently not processing orders

10.98 delivered on Amazon (3rd party seller, but good ratings):

The irony is, it's frozen so not exactly fresh in the first place.

Would it defrost the wife's knickers

What a crazy thread!!

whats wrong with defrost setting on the microwave? Done in 3 mins!

Shame, would have voted hot if you had inluded the seller in the itle

​ :smirk:

Used to have one of these years ago and couldn't find another - this is excellent! Superb product.

You should close your open bracket, sorry I couldn't resist either.

Just defrost stuff on a radiator .. The resulting food poisoning will help with your New Years resolution to lose a bit weight too.

We had one of these for almost 20 years in the house, the only difference was that one recommended hot water to be poured over it before placing items on it to defrost. Used to work a treat though.

Aye go with your aluminium foil, pots, pans and cans, but I'd rather spend less than a £10 for something built for the job.

I have one of these. I love my magical sorcery tray.

How's it work, I'm not in yet but tempted

first world problem rising up again. problem solving when there isn't a problem. hope I spelt everything korrect....

Maybe, but it would have been complete

I've had one of these for a while and they are excellent, definitely recommend and it is a brilliant piece of kit.

Nonsense, It is magic, it says so in the title. :stuck_out_tongue:

Burn the OP!

I use either a large heavy based aluminium frying pan or a thick aluminium baking tray to do the same job when I forget to defrost fish fillets in the fridge, as they'd be ruined in the microwave, and I don't like leaving them in a bowl of water because the plastic bags we get to freeze them in always seem to leak.

the picture shows the raw meat on the plate, what happens with the water/blood....

Just what I'm looking for even though I didn't know they existed until now. I defrost food a lot and it takes hours as I don't like using a microwave as it cooks the edges slightly. There's a defrost on the main oven which just blows air, quicker than leaving on the counter, but still slow. Hopefully this will be an improvement as the ratings on amazon are really good. Sold out on the domu site, but got one on ebay for £8.99, so only a £1 more.

It's not magic. I bought one of these about 20 years ago, it's just a piece of metal (aluminium I think) sprayed black. It wasn't particularly effective. These days, I just put packs of meat, chicken, etc face down in their packaging on the granite worktop and move them around from time to time. Does the same thing.

It must be difficult...
Otherwise - you would have posted more than one deal... :neutral_face:

OP - did you copy your comment from the first reviewer on the page you linked or are you Patricia Fearn?

There is one with a silicone trim to stop any juices dripping onto your surfaces with 100no in stock.. It is £11.99 - which I would still say is a good deal...

Do they sell snake oil as well?

Maxow laying down his Voting Rules - He's like the Craig Revel Horwood of the HDUK panal!

just click the link shows rakuten

Then it would have been complete and then worthy of heat.
A lot of people who post on here get the hump when people complain about incomplete posts, however it's not difficult, item, price, seller.

I always prep my meat in ziplock bags before freezing. When I want to defrost it I fill a bowl with warm-ish water and and chuck the bag in. I can defrost chicken breasts within about 10-15 mins with changing the water half way through. Never had any issues with food poisoning etc.

Out of stock unfortunately

Don't anybody use defrost in the microwave anymore ?:confused:

It's a sheet of aluminium. Aluminium is a very good conductor of heat.

Sold Out

Can it it defrost a whole chicken or Turkey?

*most meat

Wow, anyone got one ? Wouldn't cause food poisoning or anything lost meat says defrost for 24 hours?

Being eyeing one of these up for a while, good price

I've never heard of anything like this before. Sounds very handy! I've went ahead and ordered. Thank you very much for sharing :smiley:

true, but its not hard to click the link.....
