Griddle, grill plate, cooking board or griddle. A beloved child has many names. Perhaps you've heard how fantastic food you can make on a griddle, but haven't yet acquired one for your own kitchen.
If you're unsure whether you should add a griddle to your collection of kitchen equipment, you can read on to get seven reasons why a griddle will be the perfect addition to your kitchen.
1. Versatility
A griddle is more than just a gadget. It's an essential addition to your kitchen toolbox, which can be used on the stovetop, grill and even over an open fire.
With its extraordinary heat tolerance, it's only your imagination that sets the limits for how you can use your griddle - whether it's on your cooktop, grill or over a fire.
2. Multiple Heat Zones
Our griddle is designed to fit over two burners simultaneously, giving you the ability to cook with two different temperature zones at the same time.
So you can prepare two ingredients at different temperatures - at the same time. For example, you can fry a steak at high heat on one side, and vegetables at lower heat on the other side.
You can also divide the griddle into two heat zones if, for example, you need to prepare food on one end and keep the finished food warm on the other end.
You can use this technique, for example, to prepare pancakes, where you fry the pancakes on one side and keep the prepared pancakes warm on the other.

3. Heat Tolerance
Carbon steel is known for its ability to achieve high heat levels and maintain an even temperature, making it ideal for cooking various types of food.
With our griddle, you can expect even heat distribution across the entire surface, which allows you to prepare your ingredients evenly and precisely.
From juicy steaks to crispy bacon slices, you can expect your food to have the perfect balance between tender, juicy and flavorful textures.
4. Large Cooking Surface
A griddle has a larger surface than your regular pans, which means you can cook large amounts of meat, bacon or burgers at once.
The cooking surface itself measures 45 x 22 cm, which you can use over two different induction zones if you don't have a large heat source.
It's ideal when you need to serve food to multiple people at the same time for birthdays, garden parties or other events.

5. High Sides
Our griddle not only provides exceptional cooking, but is also designed with an eye for safety and functionality. The high and angled sides are specially designed to keep your ingredients within the cooking surface, so they don't fall off during cooking.
This allows you to keep cooking grease and oil away from the heat source, which helps minimize spillage and at the same time ensures that there is no risk of fire.
6. Comfort
We've taken into account that your griddle doesn't need to be permanently mounted on your stove or grill. That's why it's designed with practical handles, so you can move it around with ease. This makes it easy for you to move it from the stove to the grill, or perhaps even take it with you on a camping trip. So you can enjoy the delicious food that can be prepared on a griddle, no matter where you are.
7. Pre-Seasoned
You may have heard that it's necessary to season a carbon steel griddle before it can be used.
This may have been something you've already tried to do with a carbon steel frying pan. But with our griddle, this is not necessary.
We've done it for you, so your griddle has a natural non-stick coating that can be used straight away when you receive it.
