Just showed up a few minutes ago. Bought it from Craycort using the 15% father's day discount. This sucker is thick. Got a very busy weekend but hope to try it out.

Fits beautifully into the Craycort ring.

I like it.
Sweet looking. Look forward to seeing the results.
Wow. That thing is stout. What is your first cook going to be?

Probably bugers. Want to see the difference a griddle makes.

Greg from ballistic bbq (YouTube) finally got that marketed. He's been incahoots or however you spell that with craycorts for a while. The one he has is actually nickel plated so it is not near as hot as the steel version. I've always wanted one. Please tell us what you think of as you do some cooks. I would be really interested in it and congrats!
If anyone else is interested check out the link. Dude is legit.

That's pretty sweet. Where's the other half?
What keeps grease from dripping onto the coals below?

It's only supposed to cover half. Some grease may drip down but it does when you cook on regular grates too, so no biggie.

That should be fun to cook on that .25" surface. Should hold temp very nicely.
Can't wait to see some cooks on that.
Looks awesome

Looks really nice. Shame about the loss of the backstop for non-Craycort users.

What prevents the use of backstop for non-craycort grates? Is it the grate handle? Or the tabs under the surface?
If the grate handle, could you simply cut one handle off of a beater grate and use it with the backstop on a Weber grate?
I bought one of these griddles as well and just used it for the first time last night. Granted the burgers were great, just like pub grilled burgers. However, there was a couple of things I disliked about this and one being is that while I used 80/20 hamburgers, I had a lot of grease and the grease found it's way to the bottom causing a flare up. I had to put the lid on to put out the flame and this would be like microwaving my burgers. Does anybody have a trick to keep the grease from spilling over? Secondly, what's the best way to clean this griddle after use? It's not the same as doing the grates.

I haven't had any flare ups yet. I've only used mine a couple times. I keep the charcoal contained in my weber baskets under the griddle, so if anything runs over it's not going to hit the coals. As far as cleaning, I usually take my spatula and scrape off anything I can. Then I just take some aluminum foil and scrape off the rest. Like I said, I've only used it a couple times, so I may not be the best one to comment.
