Blackstone 22" Tabletop Griddle with Hood vs Blackstone 36-Inch Griddle with Hood

Buy the 22" tabletop if you cook for a few people and want a griddle that travels. Buy the 36" if you cook for a crowd at home and want four burners, side shelves and wheels. The 22" Omnivore plate heats evenly and sips propane, and its 4.7 rating from over 7,000 owners backs it. The 36" is the better stationary cooker, but it weighs 123 lb and needs a patio to live on.

• Choose the 22" tabletop if you tailgate, camp or cook for two to six people and want a griddle you can lift into a car.
• Choose the 36" if you host large cooks at home and want four heat zones, 768 sq in of cooking area and a cart that rolls.
