  1. Tony P in Florida

    Just ordered the Slate 36" griddle.

    :) I put it together last night and it's sitting here still in the living room. Tomorrow morning I pull it out and I start seasoning.

    Just ordered the Slate 36" griddle.

    That would be funny. But luckily for me I've got double doors that open up 5 ft wide

    Just ordered the Slate 36" griddle.

    My 36-in slate is sitting in my living room. Ended up from a local place. Since home Depot was sold out.

    Just ordered the Slate 36" griddle.

    Order canceled. I was too late and it was back ordered But I placed it anyway at the time. Looks like another 4 to 6 weeks before it would have shipped Based on customer service representative. Oh well.

    Just ordered the Slate 36" griddle.

    MM, of the 4, felt the cheapest to me. Gridiron felt really solid (Excellent leg / cart design). Blackstone cart seemed flimsy. I did rate based on fit and finish, and build quality based on my opinion :)

    Just ordered the Slate 36" griddle.

    I Saw several griddles in person this past week. Looked at the members mark 5 burner in Sam's club. Then I checked out the Slate. The 36-in camp chef gridiron. And the 36-in Blackstone. I didn't look at the older Weber griddle at 36 inch though because I'm not interested in that one. Great...

    Just ordered the Slate 36" griddle.

    I canceled my order. I'm going to do some more research. I'm not kidding. It really looks like a nice piece. But now I'm going to do some more research because I'm starting to second-guess myself. Thanks a lot.

    Just ordered the Slate 36" griddle.

    It is :) Saw the Blackstone 36" for $297 at Walmart. Great price. 1/3 the cost of 36" slate. But in this case I was thinking it's not really a case of the Blackstone failing and I can go through three of them over a 15-year period instead of spending $999 for the slate 36-in. I think for me...

    Just ordered the Slate 36" griddle.

    Just ordered the Weber slate 36-in model. TL ; DR Started off looking to spend $249. Ended the journey by spending $999 Longer Story I've been wanting a griddle for a while now. I used to use my anodized aluminum grillgrates upside down as a pseudo flat top, but was not really anything...

    Griddle Insert for My XL 600

    I am interested in the griddle insert 6789 also. For my 4-burner Genesis. Flat Top King on YouTube measured the cooking area. It's only 14 in deep by 32.5 in wide. 455 in squared. 8 minutes 58 second going into the video he measures it. That's because the first two inches has vent holes...

    Griddle insert (#6789) for genesis ii E410, grease trap question, plus compatibility question

    I have the Genesis ii e410 4-burner. It was the new design that came out in 2017?. Grease trap is in the middle of my pull-out tray. Everywhere I look online, the specification for the 4-burner rust resistant carbon steel griddle insert that replaces the grates state that the insert will...

    New Weber Griddle

    SmokeFire Sear+ Wood Pellet Grill looks interesting. Wonder if they fixed all the issues in previous models. Although I am very interested in the griddle insert for my Genesis II

    Hello…I’m a Porkoholic

    "Hi. My name is Tony and I am a pork-aholic. Sometimes when I'm at work I am thinking about what I'm going to smoke over the weekend..." If there was such a group. That might be a line that some of us say? :). I know there are bigger pork-aholics here than me.

    Pre-smashed smashburgers on GrillGrates

    I stopped grilling burgers for a long time. That's probably because I was doing them wrong for many years. That changed when I started to make smash burgers. But based, in part, on this last encounter with making burgers, I have a couple of takeaways which I am going to put in my back pocket...

    Pre-smashed smashburgers on GrillGrates

    If I make them again we'll have to try pressing down directky. I did see a couple of YouTube videos when the meat did get stuck in the hole because when the burger was flipped and was no char in these little circle areas on the burger. I still remember the very first time I did smashburgers...

    Pre-smashed smashburgers on GrillGrates

    In the past I've used my Lodge cast iron 14 in Pizza Pan, but I can only make four burgers at a time. I also used my grillgrates placed upside down and I could make a whole bunch of burgers at one time. But with the grillgrates, I would just place them on the grate since I didn't want any of...

    Reverse Sear Ribeyes finished on cast iron

    A lot of folks may have experienced this already, so I may be late to the party. The reason why I use the deflector plate for the reverse sear, as opposed to putting the charcoal either at the top position center, or top position the side, was because I get more smoke flavor using the...

    Reverse Sear Ribeyes finished on cast iron

    Made 4 bone-in Ribeyes today. Used McCormick's Montreal steak for seasoning. Steak seasoning sat on the steaks for about 30 minutes before they went on the grill Charcoal baskets centered on the bottom grate. I was little over ambitious in terms of lighting the coals. One chunk of mesquite...
