    We've used this griddler for a variety of items including steak, fish, vegetables ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxMcXT6_MuT0hB3ejyGQQHaeof9bwoWPUf and mushrooms and it's been great! Gets that great smokey flavor when using high heat or sear. The grill works amazingly simple and very low smoke for what it is. Heat gets up fairly quick, especially on closed position. The griddler side is fairly simple, better for eggs and pancakes rather than any cooking. Use the flat plates with the grill side if needed.Cleanup is easy and having heat on both sides is great for cooking a large amount or panini press.This definitely gets hot though so be careful with the sides.

    Great video content as usual. I enjoy watching all of your videos. My usual method for Grease elimination is called the Raccoon 1000. I found if you leave pieces of bacon in the grease cup, our neighborhood bandits will steal said grease from the cup. Unfortunately the raccoons probably aren't very healthy with their diet of grease and bacon. But future plans include leaving some Lipitor pills for them as well.

    I currently have the Blackstone 22," and I've wanted to upgrade to the 36". However, after watching both of your mod videos, I've decided I'm waiting for Blackstone or Camp Chef to incorporate your griddle scraper-sized grease chute into their design! Product Managers, I know y'all are watching these videos and reading these comments. :)
    Jeff, my jaw dropped when the timelapse video showed the griddle top warp as you were heating the front! I wasn't sure you could recover from that, but it looks great!

    • @TheGriddleGuys

      Ty Brian for commenting. I couldn't agree more that all of these companies should at some point figure out a good resolution for grease management. It has to be one of the top complaints besides rusting. I guess we will see. FYI, Campchef has been awesome to us. I definitely see them doing something in the future. Hopefully sooner than later. Thanks again-J

But the way all 3 of you interact with each other and give your honest opinions/feedback on your griddles has helped me with understanding the inter workings of different types of griddles and what you can cook on them!

In a time where soooo many people can't agree on so many things it's really refreshing to be part of the positivity of the griddle community.

    Great job on the mods. The nice thing about being able to mod something to your personal preferences is that you end up with something no-one else has, and the result is usually one which gets you closer to your vision of what is ideal for your specific needs and desires. I see folks making comments about incorporating some of the ideas into a product line, but I'm going to place a vote against that. There are a lot of griddles on the market, and I went with Camp Chef specifically because it is like a restaurant griddle. I.e. not like cooking in a big shallow pan due to the wall in the front. While I understand the reason for putting one there, it would drive me mad, as my tool of choice is the standard 8" turner and trying to use it inside 4 walls would not be practical. Commercial griddles have kept the same design over the many decades they have been available for several reasons, not the least of which are ease-of-use and efficiency. Any mods I would consider truly valuable would be those which bring the home units closer to the commercial design. Your grease management mod is great and does just this. But I would personally prefer it at the front. Scraping grease with my other tool of choice, the baker's scraper, brings your hand closer to hot griddle surface. The less time your extended arm is near that heat, the better and more comfortable the cooking experience.
    Honestly, just widening the front drip edge by a couple of inches and a wider exit would be enough to alleviate most grease drip concerns.

    Jeff, love your mods so far. How does the Camp chef do in the wind compared to Blackstone? Always thought it was ridiculous they couldn't enclose the bottom more to shield the burners from the wind. Just a suggestion for your next mod.

    • @TheGriddleGuys
      @TheGriddleGuys  3 роки тому

      Ty CampNut. So far so good. To be honest tho we just started using them recently. Probably a couple months now. We have been impressed so far. By design, they seem to handle the wind better than our OG blackstones. We have not tried any of the new blackstones tho. With the old one, I think the combination of the open bottom under the burners and the way the griddle plate sits on top of the Frame vs in it causes that low heat issue in the wind. They all seem to be getting better tho so hopefully that trend keeps up. Thanks again-J

    Hey, Jeff. Season both sides of the flat top. Still have limited time with my hand-hammered flat top... but my carbon steel wok has never rusted on the fire side.

    That looks fantastic!! Any advice on how to make the blackstone more efficient like you did? And how much would you charge for pieces that I myself don't know how to make but I install it myself? Cause now my blackstone wants to be the best!

      Ty Markiie89. Unfortunately nothing is really easy with fixing all of our grease catch issues. Seems like every brand has their own issues. Our hope is that this video , along with our previous mod video gets popular enough that the major brands take notice. Fingers crossed and thanks again-J

    I like the hole in the top but problen I see it may allow food to fall into it easier, especially like a stir fry, or loose ground meat as you move it around the grill top. However I thought you may wish to make a cap with a tab to pull it out over square ring with high side that fits inside the chute and above the griddle's surface that has smaller holes in the side that allow the grease to drain through, while cooking but not the food so much and is removable when you want to clean the surface of the griddle after the cook. Just a thought.

    • @TheGriddleGuys
      @TheGriddleGuys  3 роки тому

      Ty Greg. I don't blame you.. Two things that made it a bit easier for me . 1-Campchef has been absolutely awesome to us with providing us these griddles with 0 asks besides them saying " just do what you do" 2- I still have an old but working originalBlackstone as a back up in case things went horribly wrong (50% chance). We really are liking these griddles. Good heat. Good looks.. Good stuff. Thanks again-J

    Did the welds get better or worse as the EW was being depleted?

    • @TheGriddleGuys
      @TheGriddleGuys  2 роки тому

      Sadly they got better. Lol. I forget if I said it in this video or not but I 100% am not a welder. I am only a guy that bought a welder.😁. If I were to put a label on it I'd call myself a grinder more than a welder because I'm constantly grinding my welds to clean the up. Thanks for commenting and for the chuckle when I realized "EW". Cheers-J

      @TheGriddleGuys  3 роки тому +1

      Ty slawry2010. I have to admit, I still have not yet learned how to weld. If I did, I wouldn't spend 95% of my time grinding and re welding 😁. That being said, I Nate and his brother had a welder a long time ago as well as one of my other buddies had one too. I decided I just wanted a welder and bought one. Between watching and hanging with those 3 peeps I learned enough to at least stick two pieces of metal together. Thanks again-J

    Looks good. The only issue I can see is with the hole being so big is that a little bit of food waist. Maybe a screen or vent cover over it that could be removed with a magnet.
