@Tuberoller as promised, here is the first cook on the griddle
Placed the griddle over 1 chimney worth of coals and the temp climbed up to 400 within few minutes. The IR thermometer is very helpful when using something like this for the first time. It helps tell what temp the griddle is running, but also helps identify cooler spots for moving things when fully cooked.
I like the griddle temp to be around 375 degrees; it’s the perfect temp for variety of food. When it reached 400, I placed the burgers and sliced mushrooms. I figured the temp will drop a little once the cold food hits it
Added onions and peppers
And thinly sliced Ribeyes
The griddle pairs well with the Performer, since the Performer cart is perfect for having ingredients near by
Added smoked Provolone cheese to the burgers
And the burgers were done
Added potatoes and Ciabatta Bread
And tomatoes
And the cooking was done, onto assembling the sandwiches
Placed a pepper ring on the burger and filled with onions and mushrooms
Topped it with the thinly sliced Ribeye
And then the grilled tomatoes
And the Big Philly Burger was ready
I was really impressed with the griddle. It cooked evenly and cleaned up easily.
I think the thickness of it helped in maintaining even temp and prevented food from getting scorched. It was definitely worth the money and fun to cook on. I’m definitely going to use it often
