Camp Chef Professional Fry Griddle
Score: 69/100
Broil King PCG-10
Score: 81/100Rankings
The Broil King PCG-10 is a professional-grade portable electric griddle with a large non-stick surface and strong, even heating. Its main trade-offs are a higher price point and a tendency to overheat when run empty. Ideal for families or small groups that value cooking consistency and easy cleanup.
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.

Professional reviewers highlight the PCG-10's ability to hold a steady temperature-around 350°F when empty and 300-320°F when loaded-across the entire cooking surface, noting its superior build quality, effective splatter protection, and even heat distribution that outperforms cheap department-store models, while cautioning about the risk of overheating when operated empty.
Everyday users appreciate the large cooking area, easy cleanup with the removable tray and immersible base, and reliable heat for staples like bacon and omelets, but they frequently mention occasional uneven spots, overheating when left on without food, and a perception that the price is high relative to basic alternatives.
“Large cooking area for family meals”
“Even heat distribution maintains ~300-350°F consistently across surface”
