Camp Chef Professional Fry Griddle
Score: 69/100
Blackstone Tabletop Griddle 1666
Score: 80/100Rankings
The Blackstone 1666 22" tabletop griddle offers a spacious cooking surface and 24,000 BTU of power via two independent burners, making it ideal for feeding groups outdoors. Its need for an external propane source and relatively heavy build can hinder ultra-light backpacking scenarios. Best suited for campers, tailgaters, and patio chefs who value high output and portability without requiring a self-contained fuel system.
The Camp Chef Professional Fry Griddle offers a generous 608 sq in cooking surface with built-in heat diffusers and grease-drain sides, ideal for high-volume outdoor cooking. Its weight and dependence on a compatible Camp Chef stove limit its portability and standalone value. Best for groups that already own a Camp Chef 16-inch system and need a flat-top cooking surface.
