BBQ Flattop Griddle

Curveball. So don’t swing and miss.


Get yourself an outdoor griddle top. I was late to this game, and the reason for this post is that you don’t arrive late here yourself.


There are several to choose from.  

My favorite and the one I absolutely love and adore is the Blackstone 36 inch griddle top.

There is not a diner around that does not have one. Most restaurants too. It is the most versatile cooking surface. And the advantage for you is that you are moving the heat and the mess outdoors.


There is nothing you cannot cook on it.

What grill do you have that can cook all of the following:

  • Breakfast
  • Eggs
  • Pancakes
  • Bacon
  • Rice/stir fry
  • Smash burgers
  • Veggies
  • “burnt”
  • Steamed
  • Sautéed 
  • Seafood
  • Fish
  • Shellfish
  • Breads
  • Meats
  • Starchs
  • Potato
  • Hash browns
  • Noodles 


It gets better, more seasoned as you use it. It is easy to take care of. It will last forever.  


It is the only outdoor grill I have that uses propane or gas of any kind.  


If you do get it, get the hard cover for the grill surface, and as an added layer of protection, the cover:
