Flat Top Duo

Great flat top

while, I prefer my 36" outdoor camp chef and was worried this would not mimic the taste. I do love the option to use a legit flat top indoors. I think the taste is almost identical maybe a little less. But, when it is raining, snowing or I simply don't feel like going outside, it is awesome to wake up and be able to cook a few favorite dishes on my indoor flattop with near identical results. I wish their was. solution (other than buying and praying some sort of oven proof silicone will be safe to use under it) for the fact the flat top slides around on a glass stove. This usually happens when cleaning or scraping, not so much cooking but sometimes such as flipping over a smash burger. some sort of anti slip/anti catch of fire/melt to your stove top item should be included for the corners or maybe middle of the flat top. lastly, make a cover for this with the handles taken into account. Even if you cant utilize it to cut on, it would be beneficial to lay unused pans on it. I did buy the cover, but I am not picking this up off my stove numerous times a week with the risk of scratching it or simply getting the cover all greasy. That is a good solution for longer term solution. For those of us actively using this, we need another viable solution. oh yeah, and make it a little more obvious in the product specs that your current cutting boards will not fit correctly on top of this item.

Awesome, thick carbon steel! Mild texturing makes seasoning stick easy. A great tool! Very happy with it

Excellent quality, great performance

I chose this as a lower cost alternative to the popular and widely advertised Made In griddle. In comparing the two, I found the Steelmade to offer a slightly larger usable cooking surface, slightly more heft, and a lower profile making it easier to store away. Carbon steel does take a while to season, so I recommend doing several cooks of fatty foods (think bacon and burgers) to allow the surface to build up a protective coating that also significantly reduces sticking. This has excellent heat retention and makes cooking all kinds of dishes easy. A nice alternative to a dedicated outdoor free-standing griddle, higher quality than cheaper aluminum/non-stick options, and at least equally as durable as more expensive brands.
