An efficient reversible grilling device is used for grilling, broiling, frying, baking, boiling and steaming. It is a single element made of rigid heat conductive material with one side being flat and the other side having a plurality of nesting recesses for spherical and ovate food products. The maximum height of the reversible cooking device is ⅝ inch. Each of the plurality of nesting recesses has a depth greater than 50% of the height of the grilling device. A plurality of orifices cut through the element in the areas of the nesting recesses and in the areas away from the nesting recesses. Either surface can be used to prepare foods while providing fat and grease drainage.
