Know before you buy
The 56094 griddle insert is precision-engineered to fit Napoleon Prestige and Prestige PRO 500 series grills, as well as the Rogue 525 series.
Yes, for the best performance and stability, you should remove the standard cooking grates before placing the griddle insert directly onto the grill's support frame.
Stainless steel offers a more reactive surface that is easier to clean and resistant to rust. While it doesn't hold heat quite as long as cast iron, it provides excellent, even heat distribution for searing and stir-frying.
The griddle features a built-in channel that directs excess fats and oils toward a dedicated grease trap. This keeps your cooking surface clear and makes the post-meal cleanup significantly faster.
With a 26" x 16" cooking area, this insert provides a substantial surface that is more than large enough to cook breakfast items, smash burgers, or stir-fry vegetables for a large family or group of guests.
