Gas Griddles

Outdoor Gas Griddles

A flat-top griddle opens up an entire category of outdoor cooking that a standard grill can't touch. Breakfast outdoors — eggs, pancakes, bacon, hash browns — all cooked at the same time on one surface. Smash burgers with a crispy, caramelized crust. Stir-fry vegetables without anything falling through the grates. Delicate fish that would stick to or break apart on grill grates. A griddle handles all of it.

We carry outdoor griddles from Summerset, TrueFlame, WildFire, and Le Griddle. Le Griddle stands apart with its patented dual-plate cooking system — a combination of #304 stainless steel and cast iron that delivers even heat distribution across the entire surface and reaches temperatures above 700°F. Summerset, TrueFlame, and WildFire offer stainless steel griddle plates designed to integrate into outdoor kitchen islands alongside your grill.

Built-In vs. Freestanding Griddles

Built-in griddle plates drop into your outdoor kitchen island, giving you a dedicated flat-top station next to your grill. This is the ideal setup for serious outdoor cooks who want both grilling and griddle capability without switching between them. Freestanding griddles from Le Griddle come on carts or table-mount configurations, making them a flexible option that works on any patio or deck.

What to Cook on a Griddle

The flat surface and consistent heat make griddles ideal for foods that need full contact with the cooking surface: smash burgers, quesadillas, grilled cheese, fried rice, chopped steak sandwiches, seafood, and vegetables. Many outdoor kitchen owners find that once they add a griddle, it gets used as often as the grill — sometimes more.
