It is very important that you inspect the packaging of your items when they arrive and check if you received all boxes listed on the delivery receipt.

A tray at the back of the griddle catches grease, allowing for easy cleanup. Other features make this griddle mobile, including legs that fold into the bottom and two large casters that allow for rolling the grill short distances to and from a vehicle. Blackstone also eliminates one end table, opting instead for a handle. This design makes it easier to lift and roll the grill, while also making it more compact by shortening its overall length. The 22″ Griddle doesn’t take up too much space (there are much larger models of the Blackstone). The footprint is 43.73″ L x 23.59″ W x 40.”08 H and it weighs 64.5 lbs. The dual ‘H’ burners produce a total of 24,000 BTUs for fast and even cooking.

Blackstone Adventure

As the name suggests, Blackstone’s Adventure Ready series of grills are designed for road trips, be it to a park, campground, or stadium parking lot. While this grill is one of several 28-inch models Blackstone sells, its cooktop is more compact with 448 square inches of cooking surface. Though smaller, this griddle doesn’t compromise on cooking power, thanks to two 17,000-BTU burners. The -Ready 22″ Griddle is a portable, easy-to-clean griddle that gives people a 361 square inch cooking surface that’s perfect for a slew of dishes. Included with the viral griddle is an adapter hose that you can connect to your propane, non-slip handles, and a folding stand to make it easy to use wherever you take it. Some Blackstone grills also have hoods that make it easier to cook certain types of foods evenly.

Learning to cook has been incredibly exciting, but overwhelming at the same time. As we cover in our gas griddle buyers guide, portability is a key factor to consider when selecting a new flat top grill. Because of its size and weight, this is one of the best griddles on the market regarding portability.

This means that it can be carried by 1 person, unlike larger and heavier models that can take 2 people to transport. You’ll have to screw them on yourself, but this takes no more than a few minutes to complete. The feet are adjustable, allowing for added stability on uneven surfaces. This can be especially useful if you’re setting up your cooking griddle when camping or hiking in the great outdoors. The Blackstone Adventure Ready 17″ Griddle has 12,000 BTUs of power. It features an H-style burner designed to distribute heat evenly across the entire cooking surface.

It’s also important to clean the grill between each use by scraping it with a spatula, scrubbing it with a scouring pad, and wiping it clean with paper towels. Never use detergents or cleaners, as they could ruin the seasoning layer. The surface also needs a good recoating of oil in between each use. When the grill is not in use, cover it to protect it from the elements so the cooking surface doesn’t rust.

Blackstone also sells combination grills, which have air fryers or side burners. While most of Blackstone’s griddles have at least a few additional features, the company equips its higher-end grills with more extras than its lower-end models. Blackstone’s premium flat-top griddle is also its largest and most feature rich. Its 36-inch size boasts an impressive char broil performance 769 square inches of cooking surface, plenty of room for handling large tailgating events or Fourth of July backyard barbecue blowouts. That vast griddle top is well supported by four 15,000-BTU burners. Not only does this translate to high heat, it also makes it possible to grill chicken, veggies, hamburger patties, and steaks all at the same time.
