Camp Chef CGG16B Reversible Cast Iron Cooking Grate

Product Information

Camp Chef says that their cooking surface heats evenly and by all accounts that’s true. Sure, there may be fluctuations of a few degrees here and there, but for the most part, if you’ve got the burners set to the same levels across the grill, you’ll get even performance. The Camp Chef Flat Top Grill has superb heat distribution throughout the griddle top. The four burners sit a few inches below the surface, but the heat dispersing design makes sure the use of fuel is efficient and maximizes heat retention. A few tips are to make sure meat is at room temperature, not straight from fridge; use a Pellet Grill Blanket; make sure that the lid is not open for very long when putting food in; when using lower settings, turn knob to 350, then once temperature gets to desired setting, turn down to the desired setting (Low or Hi Smoke). With a gas griddle, if your knobs are on then the gas is always on, whether the temperature knobs are set to low or high. That means that even on low setting, the flat top grill surface continues to heat, getting hotter and hotter. 5. The outside temperature will affect your cooking time and griddle temperature.

When you buy a Camp Chef griddle, you don’t just buy a griddle but a whole kitchen. And don’t forget it’s a portable kitchen. You can call it a complete kitchen because it offers a spacious cooking and storage area. Due to the grill being made from all steel, you will want to make sure it’s in the shade, and not in direct sunlight, especially when it’s hot outside. Think of how hot your car can get during the summer months. Kinda the same thing. Therefore it’s normal to not be able to get lower temps on hot days. The Lodge Cast Iron Reversible Grill and Griddle is ideal for cooking everything from pancakes to hamburgers, scones to steak. With two handles on either side of the pan, you'll get maximum control while grilling or frying. Cast Iron retains heat and distributes it evenly making it perfect for cooking up any breakfast dish or even a steak. Read Review
