Backyard Flat Top Grill

[Pappymn]

I think this would be a lot of fun to cook on.

Pappy,
I think this would be great to cook on, if you were into feeding your neighbors all the time.  It seems like that now around here, but I would have to draw the line.

On a side note, I casually mentioned to my wife that I didn't think it was with firing up the Weber to smoke/cook a Blooming Onion for dinner.  I said it would be more "economical" to get a smaller grill, just for cooking for two.  Her comment, "Oh, you mean like a table-top mini-Weber?"  I couldn't believe how easily that went.  I need to find some more room in the garage for storage first, however.

Looks just the Blackstone Griddle except in SS. 

Lowes has the Blackstones for 299.99. We use ours all the time. Just a bunch of fun. Old Smoke is an old fry cook and I gotta get my griddle on.......

I thought only Tee was this gifted with the ladies? I happen to know Muebe could use your help.

Like the Smoke says - looks like my Blackstone in SS. I love using the Blackstone - makes me feel like a line cook again - a blast! Whichever way you go, a flat top is a blast! Can't make a better burger and I love my yakisobi on the grill.

I have this stove (can't believe it says $396, I paid $150 at Costco and it came with a 24" by 16" cast iron griddle).

I also have the pizza oven. (They list it at $171, it is $99 at Academy Sports plus I got my employee discount).

Add this griddle (Academy sells it for $79) and you have a very versatile cooker.

Mine came with the 24" by 16" cast iron griddle so I haven't bought the flat top. I keep the stove on the deck year round and we don't fry anything in the house I have two of he 14 inch round cast iron griddles I use mostly and our cast iron skillets. We also do all our shrimp low boils and crawfish boils and peanut boils on it. it is the best cooking gadget I have. There is also a grill box you can put on the top but since I have a gas grill and a charcoal grill on the deck I have not used one of those.

I couldn't agree more on the best way to have a burger.  I miss my days at the pool snack shack working the flat top.

Ken I believe this is the model/brand they are using.  http://www.hammacher.com/Product/12607?cm_cat=ProductSEM&cm_pla=AdWordsPLA&source=PRODSEM&gclid=CjwKEAjw9uypBRD5pMDYtsKxvXcSJACcb9AYMOCMifDvjLxVdedhecYVdxZax2Xo45AJojsb0n06NhoCjGHw_wcB

Not sure if it is the same as the camp chef model. Could be higher grade stainless. Has a lifetime warranty on it.

Made with 59 pounds of rolled steel! If I had money and space I would get one. No mention of a cover.

Does anybody have 25 grand I can borrow?

No, the Camp Chef is a stove you can add the commercial griddle to but also do so much more with. This one is pretty much just a griddle I think. I keep my Camp Chef on the deck year round with a heavy duty grill cover on it and use it all the time.
