You will need a propane adapter to convert the griddle to a bulk propane tank (these items aren’t included). The 1-pound tank is great if you’re taking the griddle with you on the go, but when using the griddle at home, using a 20-pound makes more sense. This Blackstone device runs on propane and comes with a propane regulator.
Keep in mind that Blackstone’s griddles can take up a fair amount of real estate on a deck or patio, so be sure to consider the griddle’s overall size when shopping for one. Its 36-inch model, for example, measures more than 5 feet wide. In addition to being more compact, this 17-inch griddle weighs just 30 pounds, less than half the weight of Blackstone’s 28-inch models. Its small size allows it to fit in a trunk with plenty of room for other gear. It also runs off a small 16-ounce propane canister, so there’s no need to tow along a 20-pound tank. Though its cooking surface is smaller at 267 square inches, it’s still large enough to grill up to 10 burgers.
I have graduated far past just making pancakes at the campground–and the 36″ has been my steady companion. Delicious Fajita nights are happening on my 36″ every week. And surprising enough, I love a good Blackstone Adventure steak on my Blackstone just as much as one cooked over an open flame on the grill. I spoke to customer service yesterday and they informed me that the only difference between the models are cosmetic.
We only work with companies that we love and trust, and Blackstone fit the bill in a major way. This griddle was fast becoming like my fourth Blackstone Adventure child, needing constant love and attention. Blackstone is a reputable company, so you can anticipate top-quality customer service.
You’ll want to be aware of another after-market product, which is the Blackstone 5013 Universal Griddle Stand. Since this griddle is a tabletop model, it does not come on a cart with legs. If you’re using the griddle at home on your deck or have access to a table, then this product may not be helpful. The griddle has a built-in lighter, so lighting the burner is as simple as turning the knob on the device’s front. Use the knob to set the cooktop to your desired temperature, and you’ll be cooking in no time.
These days, with a flat-top grill, cooks can grill foods they’d never dream of putting on a regular grill, including eggs, bacon, pancakes, and fajitas, to name a few. Among the flat-top grill brands on the market, few match the quality of those made by Blackstone. The company’s lineup of griddle grills are renowned for their heat output and the quality of their cast-iron cooking surfaces. When it comes to capacity, this flat top grill offers an impressive amount of space. The cooktop can accommodate approximately 9 burgers or 9 pancakes at a time. You will need to season the griddle before cooking on it the first time.

Tank because we use our Blackstone practically every day … sometimes twice a day. Flat-top grills are a popular outdoor cooking appliance for tailgating, camping, and local park excursions. As such, Blackstone designs many of its flat-top grills to be portable, including its full-size models.
