Know before you buy
The 18-inch griddle is designed to span two standard burners. It is compatible with most gas, electric, and halogen stovetops, but you should measure your burner spacing to ensure the griddle sits securely across both.
Because it is cast iron, this griddle is not dishwasher safe. Simply hand wash with warm water and a soft brush, dry it thoroughly on the stovetop over low heat, and apply a light coat of oil to maintain the seasoning.
The griddle comes pre-seasoned with organic flaxseed oil, which provides a natural, non-stick finish. While it performs well immediately, the surface will continue to improve and become more non-stick the more you use it.
Yes, this griddle is oven-safe. Its heavy-gauge cast iron construction handles high heat well, making it a great choice for finishing dishes or baking large batches of items like biscuits or flatbreads.
The griddle features an integrated channel around the perimeter to catch excess fat and juices. This helps prevent grease from spilling over the sides and onto your stovetop while you cook.
The CNC-machined and hand-polished surface creates a smoother cooking area compared to standard, rough-cast iron. This refinement allows for easier food release and makes the cleaning process significantly faster.
