Jetboil MiniMo
Score: 88/100
Blackstone Tabletop Griddle 1666
Score: 80/100Rankings
The Jetboil MiniMo is an ultra-light integrated canister stove delivering rapid boil times and precise simmer control. Its reliance on proprietary fuel and limited pot size make it less suitable for larger groups. Best for solo or duo backcountry cooks who prioritize speed and weight.
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.
