If you’ve been thinking about jumping on the outdoor griddle trend, Costco has a fantastic entry point with the Blackstone Tabletop Griddle. This thing is perfect for anyone who wants to try griddle cooking without committing to a massive outdoor setup.
This is Blackstone’s compact tabletop model that comes with a hard cover to protect the cooking surface. It’s portable enough to take camping or tailgating, but substantial enough to handle serious cooking at home. The hard cover is a nice touch since keeping your griddle surface protected really extends its life.
Blackstone is pretty much the gold standard in the griddle world, and this isn’t some watered-down version. You’re getting legitimate quality here. The value is solid when you consider you’re getting the griddle plus the protective cover as a set.
