The wheels are small, but if you run into any terrain too tough, it is easy to lift it up and over most anything in the way. This product has clear low, medium, and high settings, starts easily, and the flame of the burner is fully protected from the wind. The regulator is in a spot where it doesn’t get in the way of anything, and the lid latches securely via two metal clips and a Velcro strap. We did give this product a low score in this area because of the grease trapping system. It takes some finessing to make the Dash level on uneven surfaces, and even on level ones you still have to prop the back leg up onto something higher than the front ones to get control of the grease flow.
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. I think that’s the real secret why they are flying off shelves right now. Guys like me can whip up awesome meals like an ace short order diner cook from the 1950’s and 60’s.
Made with 100% stainless steel, the Little Griddle slots on to any grill that’s large enough. Although you won’t get as much food on the surface of the Flat Top Grill, it makes up for that by having two larger fold-out shelves, so you are trading less griddle space for more prep space. The four gas burners on the Blackstone throw out 15,000 BTUs each, for a total of 60,000, so you don’t have to worry about this grill being underpowered. Construction quality is identical for both models, although the 36″ comes with two shelves.
Seasoning is paramount when it comes to any flat-top griddle, and Blackstone griddles are no different. Season the Blackstone’s cast-iron cooking surface before cooking with it by carefully following the manufacturer’s instructions. It’s also important to clean the grill between each use by scraping it with a spatula, scrubbing it with a scouring pad, and wiping it clean with paper towels.
While it might not carry the same level of brand name recognition, there’s cash to be saved with the Royal Gourmet 24-Inch 3-Burner Portable Tabletop Griddle. Not only is it available at a more affordable $110 shipped rate right now, but it also delivers a slightly larger cooking surface for folks that need it as well as three independent burners. This griddle-cooked version of beoseot kimchi bokkeum bap (Korean for “mushroom kimchi fried rice”) gets extra umami from a mix of mushrooms and a veggie boost from zucchini and carrots. Topped with a sunny egg, each bowl is an all-in-one meal that’s super satisfying. The large surface area of a Blackstone flat-top style griddle allows you to cook a big batch all at once, so it’s an affordable way to feed a crowd with minimal effort.

Blackstone sells their own conditioning oil, which has been developed to specifically season their flat-top griddles. Other food-grade oils, including canola, vegetable and flax oil also work, but the company doesn’t guarantee results due to varying smoke points, burn times and durability.
