If we were meant to grill with gas then the garden of Eden would have had a pipeline

I received my griddle last week.  It is a nice hefty piece of iron.  The casting is crap.  It makes Lodge look like Griswold.  Lots of flaws.

I decided to grand it down before seasoning and using it for the first time.  Hit it with an 80 grit flap wheel on my angle grinder.  I suspect an 80 grit on an orbital sander may have worked too, maybe better.  120 on my palm sander did not work.

At any rate, grinding it down really helped smooth it out.

I then seasoned it with Flax oil on the kettle, then cooked with peanut oil.  brushed off after cook and seasoned with flax again.  It worked well and was nonstick.

Will post the cook in a separate thread.

Man, yours was really rough!
I had a couple of rough spots on mine that didn't take much effort to correct. I heard many inconsistency in the quality on those. You had the right tools to fix it though :)
Great work on that, now you can enjoy it for many years to come :)

It was pretty bad.  it is much smoother now, smoother than my Lodge CI (which isn't very smooth...)


It is very fun to use.

I have read the Stok Mega cast iron grindle is no longer available from Stok, any ideas on where you still buy them?  Thx John T.

I have one new in box, also the mega pizza stone. Shipping would probably be cost prohibitive though. It's pretty heavy. Now looking at it, I should probably take it out and use it. Nice real estate to make smash burgers!

If anyone wants both, they can have them for $100 plus shipping.

that would be the perfect topper to a kettle pizza, too bad it is $80 and I am a cheapskate.

Thinking outside the box, I like it

Where are these cooks pics?  Let's post them in this thread as well.
I too see that it's now unavailable.  That's too bad.  I've been waiting on something like this to come along.

@ClubChapin thanks for those links.  Wow, I really hope this pan comes back.  It would be a fun accessory to have.

I also weekly, during the warm months, make pancakes on it every weekend.

It's nice, I wish it was a larger diameter.  Honestly, any piece of CI works fine, just sitting on a grate.

I've also got one of these:

The size and rim are nice.  It does not perform nearly as well as CI.
