Griddles let you cook everything from eggs, pancakes, and other fragile foods that would fall straight through a gas griddle surface. Griddle surfaces provide a uniform cooking area that doesn’t leave marks on your food or require as much cleanup as a traditional grill. It still uses 4 stainless steel burners with matchless ignition for ease of use and features two wheels instead of four to allow for transportation to and from a given storage area. It’s incredibly easy to store since you can remove the top and flip it so that it’s upside down to protect the cooking surface. At 17 inches wide, it’s not too unwieldy to be carried to and from various cooking locations.
It has cast iron grates for longevity and durability, and large shelves and food preparation areas. It has a mightily impressive 1260 square inches of cooking space between its charcoal Charcoal Grills Combo Grills and propane areas. Across these 1260 square inches it has an amazing 40,800 BTUs of power. Not only this, but it also has a side burner that packs in 12,000 BTUs of additional power.
One big advantage with the Camp Chef is that you can swap the griddle surface for grill grates, so this can also double as a grill. The main body of the griddle is stainless steel, an upgrade over the powder coated steel you often see. A lot of the grill and griddle combos we’ve tested use a split design where you get a small grill and Charcoal Grills Combo Grills a small griddle. It’s an excellent choice if you plan to use a griddle for cooking sparingly or only want to add some egg or pancake-cooking ability to your normal grill cookouts. This minor limitation isn’t enough to overcome all of the good that comes with this model. It’s an ideal choice if you need a small, portable gas griddle.
Obviously, the size of the griddle impacts how many folks you can cook for, and where. Smaller griddles can be used both indoors and outdoors and can be implemented relatively easily with an existing cookout layout. If you enjoy outdoor cooking, being able to prep breakfast for a large number of people is a great feature.
So the other day I was browsing the Walmart website looking at the new models which have been added to the Pit Boss Platinum Series. I then come across a range of pellet grills branded as Expert Grill. I wasn’t previously aware of Expert Grill (a Walmart brand) as they have only recently released this range of pellet grills/smokers. Well, I do think other budget pellet grill/smoker brands do have some tough competition on their hands.
A good number is between 75 and 100 BTUs per square inch of cooking space. This will ensure that your grill can heat up quickly, while also maintaining good cooking power. For some people this is plenty, and for some this isn’t enough.
You can see all the Expert grills on the Walmart website by clicking on the link below. One thing I was not able to find out is where Expert grills are made. Here is a video of the unboxing and first-time use of the 3 burner. I was surprised by the fact that it only took about 15 minutes to assemble. The reason I am doing the Expert Grill reviews is that I had never heard of them and recently found them in a few articles I was reading.
