Nevertheless, meat to be cooked is usually positioned horizontally on a fry pan, which is not an effective position for removing fat.
There is another conventional frypan that uses a heater and a temperature controller positioned at one side, but the space for placing food on the fry pan is constant, so meat of different thickness being fried may have differently cooked condition in two surfaces of the meat resulting in a poorly cooked product having a bad outer appearance.
