I've used this griddle got a few weeks now and it has exceeded my expectations. Thus far I've made bacon, smash burgers, and philly cheesesteaks -each to rave reviews. The cooking surface is of decent size and heats more evenly than I expected. That's not to say there aren't any cold and hot spots- there are, but its manageable. I find myself closing the grill lid to keep the cook surface temp where I want it, but other than that, its a solid add-on and extended the variety of what I can cook outdoors without buying a blackstone.
It’s HEAVY; not easy to season and although my grill is level, all the fluids drain to the back, not up front where the hole is.
It’s not an item that’s easily swapped out like some of the other pieces are and I have NO idea how/where I’m going to store it when I need more grill space or the added grill zone.
Made bacon, pancakes and breakfast burritos on it so far, so it does cook nice once you get the temp tuned in. We will see over time how it holds up.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We recommend using a silicone scraper to push excess grease towards the hole in front once the griddle has cooled.
We hope these tips will help! Please look for an email outreach from our Support team soon. Thank you!
Only used it once for Carne Asada and worked fabulously. Even heating due to the heavy duty carbon steel and seasoned easily. A nice addition to brand new EXP335, my early birthday present from my lovely
Perfect for cooking breakfast outside especially since my wife won’t let me cook bacon in the house. I usually always cook hamburgers on the grill but I tried them on the griddle last time put a nice sear on them then the cheese and covered them cooked in its own juices and it turned out wonderful
