Blackstone® 1517 Original 28" Omnivore Griddle, Black

BLACKSTONE 1517 28 Inch Griddle is an outdoor griddle built for shoppers who want one cooking surface for a wide range of meals. Its 517 square inches of cooking space gives you room to prepare breakfast, lunch, and dinner options, from eggs and pancakes to steak, potatoes, quesadillas, and Teppanyaki style foods.

The Omnivore griddle plate is the main feature that shapes the cooking experience. Built-in wind guards, faster preheat and recovery times, improved heat distribution, and less fuel use per cook are designed to make the cooking surface more efficient. For buyers who want a versatile outdoor cooking setup, this focus on the plate design is a key reason to consider this model.

BLACKSTONE 1517 also focuses on convenience around the cooking area. The side shelf adds prep space, while the bottom shelf and side shelves provide places for food storage and cooking items. The side handle and two caster wheels make it easier to move the griddle to fit your needs, which can be useful when organizing your outdoor cooking space.

Cleanup is another important part of the design. The rear grease management system is intended to help make cleanup quicker and more convenient after cooking. The durable construction is designed for long lasting outdoor cooking use, and the product includes a 1 year limited warranty.

The main trade-off is that this is a dedicated outdoor griddle with a defined cooking surface size, so shoppers should consider whether that setup matches their available space and cooking habits. Verdict: This outdoor griddle is a strong fit for buyers who want a versatile cooking surface with storage areas and mobility features. Shoppers who need a different size or a different type of cooking setup should compare other options before choosing.

A great fit if you:

• Want one outdoor cooking surface for preparing different meals throughout the day.
• Need extra areas nearby for holding food, ingredients, and cooking tools while preparing meals.
