You'll still want to cover your griddle when not using it of course, and while this Blackstone does include a lid, it would be nice if it were attached. But what truly sets Blackstone apart is the griddle itself: a beastly plate crafted from 7-gauge rolled carbon steel that's built to withstand years of abuse and living outdoors.

The brand has long set the standard in the genre, and even in the face of some impressive new competition - including from the likes of Weber and Traeger - Blackstone's iconic Original 36-inch Griddle remains the best option for most people.
