I cant believe it. Traeger made a gas product! Be sure to watch as Trevor does a full product review on the Flatrock then cooks on it! We are happy traeger made this flat top because it has all the stables of their smokers, but on a griddle! This would pair perfect with other traeger BBQ's! Watch as Trevor prepares some breakfast food on the Flatrock. Let us know what you think? Be sure to like, comment, and subscribe. More videos incoming!

Great review and appreciated your comments. I’d disagree a bit (not surprising as ceo ) with your comment on our strategy and whether it’s consistent for Traeger to launch a flat top grill.
Our goal has always been to create memorable home cooking moments by offering a a better product experience than what’s on the market. We believe our wood pellet grill soliton has done that incredibly well by delivering better flavor, more versatility, increased ease and greater consistency. Our mission has never been about propane, even though we definitively believe we do this better than propane grills that out an artificial flame on your food. (Admittedly we’ve enjoyed some humor at the expense of propane, more for fun than anything).
Our objective in launching a flat top was to offer a perfect complement to our core wood pellet grill solution, which will continue to be at the center of our universe. In the case of Flatrock, the propane is not the flavor, but simply the fuel to heat the appliance. And together we believe these products allow for an epic home cooking experience.
Please feel free to reach out if you’d like to hop on a call to discuss further. And thanks again for taking the time to review Flatrock and for your honest comments! All my best, Jeremy
Its coming up this week. Then we have a video comparing it to the Traeger.
Hi Jeremy. Trevor Andruss here (same last name ha). We would love to be a better partner with you guys, not sure if thats through an ambassador/influencer program you offer? Or through our retail store. I have been just buying these products at the local retail stores, as they are getting them faster. I would love to continue the discussion further.
Jeremy, please explain the reason for the grease trap in the front? We are already getting reports that people are burning their hands over the grease trap where it is currently located.
@@gosman949 Is there a griddle where the grease trap doesn't get hot? On my BS that thing get hot.
@@scottcarroll4825 this grease trap is on the bottom almost middle of the grill where your hand will be much of the time. All I'm asking, which some betta testers are wondering too, if the grease trap is hot above the opening. Also, one beta tester has found that it is in a location that often where food particles can go. But can work around this. I am not a beta tester, but just a longtime UA-cam reader. But I feel that getting multiple opinions from beta testers, is important to help decide that important buying decision. The questions I ask, is for the benefit of the readers and buyers out there.
Great video, but you missed a couple things. One, it can also use a 9V battery for ignition, you don’t have to plug it in. Two, the plug grants access to the flame sensor and propane scale, great for knowing if your burners are on and how much propane you have left in a 20 lbs tank. Three, you installed the side rails backwards, the curved part should be on the front side, not the back. So far I’ve been very impressed with the Flatrock, way more consistent and reliable than my blackstone ever was!
yes he should have read the manual!
@@gosman949 hit the nail on the head, lol!
@@kippitykp I often know more than salespeople about a product by simply using the internet! Why can't they do the same?

Good review but disagree that griddles are "off brand" for Traeger. I think the marketing campaigns against gas are really aimed at traditional gas grills vs. wood pellet and not griddles or even propane as a heat source. Love that they are innovating and expanding their product portfolio in the outdoor cooking space.
Yeah, after cooking on it I'm super excited to see what else they make! The burners were awesome. Thanks for watching !!
Definitely looks like they did a nice job on it. I got CampChef I thinking of upgrading. This grill definitely in the running.
Its awesome. I really like the size of it.
I love you passionate opening statement. Backyard cooking has surely changed. I agree with the pricing. I have one of those $400 griddles and the only reason I am not running out to buy a new one is because it's connected to natural gas.
ohh natural gas griddle thats pretty cool
I buy everything based on reviews. Some said this was hard to put together ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxCx5fHawkK9OoV-ojFrY8JLnZrFwAmvUt some guy said 2 hours and 2 beers later. I didn't drink beer like I was going to. I didn't feel like going to the store. I'm assuming I would have had at least 3. I took my time. Stepped outside for a cigarette break a couple times but all in all it was about a 3 hour project for me but it wasn't like it was difficult or anything . Only pictures but everything is pretty organized and labeled although I didn't see any #s on the actual pieces like it shows in the diagrams. Only the screws were labeled. On the cardboard part of the packaging on the back side. I put it together in my living room too. It wasn't supposed to rain today but it's Michigan and I couldn't wait so I put it together in my living room. Without beer but beer would definitely have made it more fun that's for sure. I'm giving this a 5 for easy assembly. I'll update after it stops raining when I can take it out of my living room and cook some food on it. Hope this helps at least for people who think they can't put this together because I did and you can too . And there are extra screws. I got nervous and immediately came here to see if others had the same experience and they have. You're not doing it wrong. There will be extra screws. Be patient. Don't rush it. Drink beer. Happy assembling
great tip!
The reason Traeger had to come out with a propane grill, is because many people like me, live in a condominium complex, where you are not allowed to have a wood burning barbecue on your patio. You have to use propane. I will buy this because I can use it in my complex,and it may not taste as good as a wood pellet fired grills, but it’s nice that it’s not cooking by flame. Adjusting the heat is a big plus. No way Traeger could ignore a huge market. Who can’t buy their product if it’s woodfired. You did a really good job on the video.
thank you!
Like your review. seems like it is one of the more objective. question How would you pair the traeger flat rock with a traeger pellet grill. Already have a pellet grill. keep wondering if the 899 cost of the flat rock is worth while. thanks again for the review. FYI the electric is necessary to use the fill indicator for the propane tank.
yes good point
You actually want the front to be a little cooler. I’ve been using a blacksyone for years and it’s makes it more manageable if it’s slightly cooler in the front.
Wood pellet makes sense for an open flame cook but for a griddle the fuel for cooking shouldn’t change the taste at all because you’re cooking on cast-iron not on the flame ?
true
Building an outdoor kitchen and saw your recent build. I can’t justify the cost on the Lynx Asado. What is your recommendation for a natural gas griddle ? I have Blaze appliances but open to putting in any griddle and not matching appliances. Cheers!
Have you seen our top 5 gas griddles video ?? That might help you out
If I could get this in the UK I would have ordered it. Cracking review.
Dang
How does the cast iron surface compare with the stainless griddles in your top 5 video? Is the stainless that much better?
I really like this as a stand alone products for the the price and size. I think our top 5 still stands. Most of the stuff on our list are more luxury items meant to fit into an outdoor kitchen
I'm looking for a searing station to build into my outside or a stand alone 1 can you help
here to help
@@embersliving so can you advise on any models please
I can see that Traeger coming out with flat top grill has really hurt your feelings.
*BILLIONS* paid for Weber Grills taken private! Love that! Grills galore!
haha
Need a natural gas model
Sorry I hate cooking with Propane. I have the Traeger 575 pellet grill
Thats ok!
Got the private of cooking on this. I own a black rock This thing is legit and my next purchase
LOL, It's a griddle not a smoker, It has to be gas and cooking on a griddle you don't taste the gas like when cooking on a gas grill over direct fire. 🙄 Your rant about their motto is Wacked out.
Thanks for sharing, great stuff Bro.
great review! THANK YOU! However, won't purchase due to power requirement.
Thanks for watching!
According to BBQ Jesus flipping continuous is okay….
good thing you sell grills because the golf swing ain't making you money...lol
Follow our golf channel @embersgolf
it's a flat top wont really get any gas influence in the flavor
This is true, but STILL!! Really awesome products though.
Traeger doing a gas grill? Next thing you know, Kamado Joe will release a pellet gr... oh wait 😅
haha right! Of course!
alright already with beginning beatdown, move on. also the gas heats up the cast iron. The gas you're not going to taste it. no debate , flip once
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the review, but seasoning with butter is never a good idea, the smoke point of butter is just way too low., use a veggie or even peanut oil to season. And NEVER, EVER, use bacon or any other kind of animal meat for the first cook on cast iron.
A plug in griddle just to light the burners Wtf
Pretty weird a battery pack would have been better
There is a place to put a 9v battery so you can light it without plugging it in
@@embersliving I grant you your wish!
just got mine today and it is going back....hardware is cheap junk....screws strip out even with the cheapest screwdriver ever made it gives ikea a run for its money.....heat shields were all bent and the folding shelves were all bent were they pivot. stick to pellet grills. junk junk junk
Ours was pretty solid im suprised.
@@embersliving they were great on taking care of it it was a bad day that day, i vented. customer service is top notch though
