    Weber Slate Griddle Review: Built Like a Tank
    May 15, 2025
    Weber isn’t new to flat-top cooking. They’ve offered griddle inserts for their gas and charcoal grills and dabbled with a more bare-bones griddle, leaving us underwhelmed. With the Slate, Weber has come in guns blazing, targeting backyard cooks who want more than just a hot slab of steel. I’ve spent time cooking on the Slate…

    Camp Chef GRIDIRON 36 Review: Serious Competition For Blackstone
    May 13, 2024
    Camp Chef has been in the griddle game for some time, but their older models were pretty basic. With the new Gridiron 36, Camp Chef is hoping they’ve come up with a griddle to rival Blackstone. I got to try out this griddle before it hits stores on May 20th. In this review, I’m going…

    Weber Griddle 28” Review: How Does the New Weber Griddle Stack Up Against the Competition?
    May 4, 2023
    Since we wrote this review, Weber has come out with the Slate range of griddles. Available in 28″, 30″, and 36″ (which we review here), it’s a much more premium griddle. Despite the higher price tag, we think it’s a much better buy. Weber is one of the most popular names in outdoor cooking, and…

    UPDATE: Traeger has just announced a smaller 2-zone Flatrock that will retail for $699.99. After dominating the pellet grill market for decades, Traeger has finally released their first non-pellet grill. That’s right, Traeger now makes a gas griddle and it’s called the Flatrock.

    Victory 4-Burner Propane Gas Griddle Review

The Victory 36-inch 4-Burner Gas Griddle aims to join the fray of the flap-top market, and does so in a quality, no-frills fashion. In this review, I will cover the features,…
