Know before you buy
The raised design is primarily aesthetic and does not interfere with the griddle's ability to cook food evenly. Because it is made of solid cast iron, the entire surface retains heat effectively, though you may notice the design leaves a faint impression on items like pancakes or flatbreads.
Yes, this griddle is fully compatible with induction cooktops. Its cast iron construction reacts perfectly to magnetic induction, providing consistent heat distribution across the surface.
It comes pre-seasoned with vegetable oil, which provides a natural, easy-release surface right out of the box. While it performs similarly to nonstick pans, you will still need to use a small amount of oil or butter, and the nonstick quality will continue to improve the more you use and maintain the pan.
To maintain the seasoned finish, always hand wash the griddle with warm water and a stiff brush. Avoid using a dishwasher or harsh detergents, and be sure to dry it thoroughly and apply a light coat of oil before storing it to prevent rust.
Absolutely. Cast iron is excellent for high-heat cooking and searing because it retains heat exceptionally well. It is safe to use on the stovetop, in the oven, or even directly on a grill.
