Great griddle
"Great griddle I have only used a few times before winter kicked in My go to meal on a griddle is chicken fajitas I owned a previous brand before, but it deteriorated quickly, rust showing up, unequal heat distribution probably due to material thickness With my Napoleon griddle, cooking is more even and stays like new, no sign of rust or deteriorating My only remark is that I wish the edges of the sides and the back had a minimum of 1 inch height, so the food wouldn’t fall off while sautéing"

Napoleon Cast Iron Reversible Griddle - 56365
"Got this griddle plate to test a few months back, juuuuust got a chance to use it. Weather and life prevented me from grilling this summer. Got a chance to make some burgers on it, and it worked exceptionally well including toasting the bunds. No flare ups and easy clean up. I was hoping to do a breakfast on it with some French Toast and bacon. Look for an update with that!!! I found it to be heavy duty and fit well on my grill. This would be an excelent addition to any grill, get two if you are having more then a few people over as it just replaces one rack."

Wonderful accessory
"I received this product for free from Napoleon for testing purposes. This cast iron griddle is a great addition to my gas BBQ, transform it into a plancha in few seconds! The built quality is very good, the searing is perfect and the cooking is even. It's a real pleasure to be able to cook breakfasts and meals quickly with it! The size is good for a couple or a small family, for more people I would choose the biggest one! I've tested it for multiple purposes (eggs, bacon, burgers, marinated chicken. . . ), iwas always very happy with the results. Cooks quickly, the dishes are tasty and it's easy to clean it!"

Great addition to my Napoleon and BBQ accessories
"I’m really happy with this cast iron griddle for my Napoleon grill. It seasoned fast - two light coats of oil, a quick heat cycle, and was then ready for use. Heat up is even and steady, with no hot spots, and it did not warp at all even when I cranked the burners for smash burgers. Cooking on it is easy (burgers, sausages, chicken, fish, and breakfast) everything comes out great! Cleanup is just a scape (I used a stainless chain pad that I use on all of my cast iron), then a wipe with a clean cotton rag, followed by a little oil before I put it away. Quality feels solid (it’s nice and heavy) and heat retention is excellent, so searing is a breeze. My only wish is that it were a bit larger, I may buy another for when I’m cooking for a crowd. Overall it is great addition, making my Napoleon grill even more versatile than it already was. Highly recommended!"

Favorite Accessory!
"I was honored the opportunity to receive this product to test and the Cast Iron Reversible Griddle proved beyond a worthy accessory for my Napoleon Grill. With this, purchasing a separate flat top style grill is not necessary. It is great for hibachi style mills but most recently, I made buffalo chicken cheesesteaks for the family. Being able to remove the smoke from the kitchen to outside making high heat meals is a HUGE bonus. Traditionally, we made our cheesesteaks inside but had to eat them outside because of the smoke, so we were pleased to not have to do that. The cast iron is sturdy enough to handle the rigors of the bench scraper and spatula used for hibachi and cheesesteaks and add great flavor when seasoned properly! Flip the griddle over and you are rewarded with the iconic Napoleon grill pattern for hotdogs, burgers, steaks or any other of your favorite grilled items. I had been considering purchasing a separate flat top grill for these meals but I am relieved I can use this amazing accessory instead of investing in that. Thank you Napoleon!!!"

Amazingly Impressed
"When I received this, the furthers thing from my mind was having a griddle to use on the bbq. The 1st time I used it, I swore I would never bbq without it again. It is the perfect size for my Bbq and I cheat and prop up the end a bit so the slots let the grease run right off the griddle so the food doesn't sit in the grease and the ribbed surface keeps the food up off the grease. Speaking of the ribbed surface. That is one side of the two sided griddle. When I cook bacon, it's perfect for keeping the bacon out of the grease, leaving my bacon to be crispy if that's what I desire. On the other side, I use it to bbq vegetables. It has a flat porcelain finish so makes it so easy to clean. Just wipe it off and you're done cleaning up! Presto. I haven't used it to make pizza yet, but that is a plan for the future. This griddle it so easy to clean up when done. No trying to use a steel brush and cleaning the grates off. Just wipe it off with a paper towel, then wipe clean with a dish cloth. I never thought I needed a griddle, but now know I won't be living without one. There are many plans on what different items I can bbq without worrying about the small pieces falling through the grates and starting a fire. If you don't have one yet, you definitely need one."

Grilling to Perfection
"My review would not let me attach photos, so I wrote a separate review and emailed it to the tester team's email address. I received the Cast Iron Reversible Griddle and installed it easily by removing one section of the stainless cooking grill set. The cast-iron griddle fit snugly in place (see photo). I applied a small amount of avocado cooking oil to clean it off (avocado oil can take high heat without smoking). Then I started the two burners under the griddle, and when it was hot enough, I placed two steaks on the griddle (see photo). They cooked to perfection, and there was no sticking, and it seemed to heat evenly, which is essential for a properly cooked steak. The griddle also cleaned up easily and is ready for our next cookout."
