What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Lodge Mountain Griddle for its exceptional quality and unique design. The signature mountain motif is a highlight, offering both aesthetic appeal and distinctive food presentation. Core Lodge performance attributes like superior heat retention and rugged durability are consistently affirmed, making it a reliable cooking tool right out of the box due to effective pre-seasoning. While the textured surface requires more careful cleaning than smooth pans, and the 10.5 inch size suits smaller meals, the overall consensus confirms this is a high quality, durable specialty item that upholds the brand's strong legacy.
Know before you buy
Yes, the cast iron construction is fully compatible with induction cooktops, as well as gas, electric, grills, and open campfires.
The mountain design is primarily aesthetic and does not interfere with the griddle's performance or heat distribution. However, because it creates a textured surface, you may need to use a stiff brush or chainmail scrubber to clean around the raised details.
Yes, it comes pre-seasoned with 100% natural vegetable oil. While you can cook on it immediately, the non-stick properties will continue to improve the more you use and maintain it.
Hand wash the griddle with warm water and a mild soap if needed, then dry it thoroughly immediately to prevent rust. Once dry, apply a very light layer of cooking oil to the surface before storing.
No, this griddle is made without PFAS or any synthetic non-stick coatings. Its natural non-stick surface is created entirely through the seasoning process.
No, this griddle is not dishwasher safe. Dishwashers will strip the seasoning and cause the cast iron to rust, so it must be cleaned by hand.
