Get Griddle Grilling With These Mouthwatering Recipes (19 Recipes)
The backyard griddle business is on fire and we’ve got the griddle recipes to help you get in on the flat top action.
Griddle grilling is arguably one of the hottest sectors of the outdoor cooking market, with several big-name manufacturers now offering up premium backyard griddle units.
And with good reason. The flattop griddles have long been the most valuable player in a diner and many high-end restaurants. Think of it as a giant skillet with multiple heat zones. Chefs around the world love their griddles (aka flattops or planchas) because they can manage several orders simultaneously: burgers in one heat zone, hash browns in another, eggs in another. They also offer excellent temperature control, and boy, can they create a great brown Maillard surface. But the real thrill, in my opinion, is the seemingly endless number of dishes you can create thanks to its versatility!
Ready to try your hand at the griddle game? Here are a few fun recipes from our own team and such well-known griddle experts as Paul Sidoriak, Chef Stef, and Neal Williams (a.k.a. The Flat Top King) to help get you started.
