Though these grills are portable, moving them is a two-person operation since they can weigh upwards of 100 pounds or more. This model sits on four large casters, two of which are lockable, which is useful for wheeling the grill into position on a patio or deck. The large cooking surface on the 22″ allowed me to make just about everything at once. No more making one or two cast iron pancakes at a time and flipping them into a bowl, only to serve them cold minutes later.
While Blackstone’s most common grill size is 28 inches, the company also makes smaller 17-inch models as well as large 36-inch griddles. A 28-inch griddle has about 528 square inches of cooking surface, which is enough to cook for up to six people. Larger 36-inch flat-top grills have around 750 square inches of cooking surface, which is enough for gatherings of eight or more people. Blackstone’s smaller tabletop models, which have around 300 square inches of cooking space, are suitable for up to four people.
If you love to cook for friends and neighbors (and even complete strangers that wonder into your backyard) then this is your griddle. Blackstone says you can cook 28 burgers or 72 hot dogs on this bad boy. I haven’t tried to hit those numbers yet personally, but I believe them. The cooking space is massive, but still super easy to clean.
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 child, needing constant love and attention. Blackstone is a reputable company, so you can anticipate top-quality customer service.
The Blackstone Griddle Seasoning and Cast Iron Conditioner is exactly what you need to make sure your griddle and cast iron are well-seasoned and protected. This two-in-one product offers results you can trust to get your griddle ready for use, or help maintain your current seasoning to prevent sticking and rust. Loosen up the screw on the side of the legs to put the legs into the lowest position possible. You’ll notice that one set of legs are a little longer when put into their lowest position. On the backside of the stand, there’s a set of pins on the left and right end. To fold the legs, you will pull the pin on the side with the shortest legs and fold them in.

Seann actually says it is the easiest piece of outdoor cooking equipment he has ever put together.
Last week we shared the news that we had recently added a Blackstone 22 inch Adventure Ready Griddle to our cooking arsenal. Since the blog post & video, we’ve had requests for a video showing the ease of break down & set up. These larger flat-top grills feature legs that fold up, allowing one to fit them in a large trunk or a truck bed. These flat tops also have large casters that make it easier to maneuver them over flat surfaces for short distances.
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.
The griddle top is made of rolled carbon steel, which is resistant to damage and corrosion. It’s also a great option to use at home in your backyard or on your patio. The flat top grill is easy to put together and relatively compact. Custom made products are usually delivered within 3-5 weeks.
