While Blackstone may indeed be the go-to brand for this style of grill, deciding on which model to buy can be a challenge. The company’s griddles range in size from tabletop 17-inch models for camping up to full-size 36-inch griddles for large tailgating parties.

We included a mix of different Blackstone outdoor griddle sizes to suit different needs, including small tabletop models, midsize 28-inch griddles, and large 36-inch griddles.
