The reversible design adds versatility to your outdoor kitchen. The smooth side is ideal for breakfast foods like eggs, pancakes, or smash burgers, while the ridged side provides authentic sear marks and helps drain excess fat away from meats.
The griddle weighs 26 pounds, which reflects its heavy-duty cast iron construction and superior heat retention. Because of its weight and size, we recommend using heat-resistant gloves and caution when moving or flipping it while hot.
