Blackstone griddles use high-powered propane burners to heat a thick, cold-rolled steel cooking surface that distributes heat evenly across the entire top. Unlike traditional grills, there are no grates—food cooks directly on the flat surface, which prevents flare-ups and allows for precise temperature control. The large surface area makes it easy to cook multiple foods at once, from pancakes and eggs to burgers and stir-fry. A built-in grease management system channels drippings away from the food, making cleanup quick and hassle-free.
