How to build your outdoor cooking setup

Start with the cooker. A tabletop griddle suits camping, balconies and smaller households, while a full-size griddle station is the centrepiece for family cooking and parties. Then add the essentials: a toolkit, grease cup liners and a cover in the matching size. Finally, take the guesswork out of thicker cuts with a MEATER: one probe covers most cooks, and Pro Duo or Pro XL let you cook several pieces to different doneness at once.

Outdoor Cooking FAQs

Q: What do I need to start cooking on an outdoor griddle?

A: A griddle sized to how many people you cook for, a spatula and scraper toolkit, rear grease cup liners and a cover in the matching size. Add a wireless meat thermometer for thicker cuts.

Q: What's the difference between a griddle and a barbecue?

A: A barbecue cooks over open grill bars; a griddle has a solid flat steel surface, so you can cook eggs, pancakes, rice, chopped veg and smash burgers that would fall through a grill, all side by side.

Q: Can I use a MEATER on a Blackstone griddle?

A: Yes. MEATER is ideal for thick steaks, chicken and pork on a griddle. Insert the probe at least to its safety line and the app tells you when to take the meat off and rest it.

Q: Can I take a griddle camping?

A: Yes. Blackstone's 17" and 22" tabletop griddles are made to be portable, and fitted carry bags are available to protect them in the car.
