If you’ve been eyeing a quality cast iron grill/griddle combo, the Lodge Seasoned Cast Iron Reversible Grill at Costco might be exactly what your kitchen needs. This thing is a workhorse that’ll last you decades if you take care of it.
This is a reversible cast iron pan that gives you two cooking surfaces in one: a ridged grill side for perfect sear marks on steaks, burgers, and veggies, and a flat griddle side for pancakes, eggs, and grilled cheese. Lodge pre-seasons it at the factory, so it’s ready to use right out of the box—no need to spend hours seasoning it yourself before your first cook.
Let’s be real: this is heavy. Like, really heavy. You’re not casually flipping this with one hand, and it takes up serious storage space. But that weight is also what makes it so great at retaining heat and giving you those restaurant-quality results. The pre-seasoning is decent, though you’ll want to keep building up that non-stick surface with regular use and proper care.

Bottom Line: This is one of those buy-it-for-life kitchen tools that’ll get better with age. Just make sure you’re ready for the weight and committed to the (minimal) maintenance cast iron requires.
