Blackstone Flat Top Gas Grill Griddle 2 Burner Propane Fuelled Rear Grease Management System, 1517, Outdoor Griddle Station for Camping, 28 inch 2024 Model Griddle Only
Overview
The Blackstone 28-inch Flat Top Gas Grill Griddle (model 1517, 2024) is a two-burner, propane-fueled griddle top designed for people who want to cook full meals outdoors without relying on a traditional charcoal grill. It’s built for campers, tailgaters, small families, and anyone who values versatility—pancakes, stir-fries, burgers, and breakfast spreads all cook well on the flat surface. This “griddle only” unit puts emphasis on portability and modular use: install on a compatible cart or tabletop. Key practical benefits include two independently controlled burners for heat zones, a rear grease management system for easier cleanup, and a broad 28-inch cooking surface that balances capacity with transportability.
Key Features
- 28-inch flat cooking surface designed for direct griddling of pancakes, eggs, burgers, and steaks; sized to serve roughly 4–8 people depending on portions.
- Two independently controlled burners that let you run high-heat sear zones and low-heat keep-warm zones simultaneously.
- Rear grease management system with angled surface that funnels oil and drippings to an accessible removable grease cup for cleaner operation.
- Cold-rolled steel griddle top (seasonable) gives excellent heat retention and flavor development; requires initial seasoning and periodic re-oiling.
- Compact, griddle-only design (model 1517) intended to be mounted on compatible Blackstone carts or used on a stable table for camping and tailgating.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Two independently controlled burners let you create separate heat zones for different foods.

- 28-inch flat top balances cooking area and portability — great for small groups or travel.
- Cold-rolled steel cooking surface (seasonable) provides a versatile, high-heat searing plane.
- Simple controls and a compact footprint make it fast to set up and use at campsites or tailgates.
Cons
- Sold as griddle-only—cart, hood, and some accessories are not included and must be purchased separately.
- Cold-rolled steel surface requires regular seasoning and maintenance to prevent rust and preserve non-stick performance.
- Wind can affect flame performance and heat consistency outdoors unless you use a windscreen or sheltered spot.

Recommendations

- Foodies who enjoy searing, stir-frying, and one-pan meals that benefit from a flat, evenly heated surface.
