- How many people can the 36-inch griddle feed?
- The 768-square-inch surface cooks for a large family or a backyard gathering, roughly a dozen or more burgers at once. Four burners let you run separate zones for different foods.
- Does it come with a propane tank?
- No. It runs on a standard liquid propane tank, which is sold separately, and the hose and regulator are included with the griddle.
- How hard is it to assemble?
- Plan for an hour or more and a second person. Owners commonly say assembly is the most tedious part of setup.
- Do I need to season the griddle top?
- Yes. The cold-rolled steel surface needs a full seasoning with oil before first use, and light oiling after each cook keeps it nonstick and rust-free.
- Can it replace a gas grill?
- For burgers, breakfast, stir-fry and searing, yes. It cannot do true open-flame char or rotisserie cooking, so some buyers keep a grill alongside it.
- Is it easy to move and store?
- It rolls on four wheels and the hood folds down, but it is heavy and best kept on a patio rather than carried up stairs.
