Steelmade USA Flat Top Grill

The Steelmade Flat Top Grill is designed for gas and electric coil stovetops and sits directly over your existing burners. Because cast iron is induction-compatible, it can work on induction ranges, but the stainless steel frame and grease management system are optimized for open-flame or radiant heat sources.

The Steelmade is built with heavier-gauge stainless steel and a cast iron cooking surface designed for indoor stovetop use, whereas the Blackstone lineup is primarily an outdoor standalone propane griddle system. The Steelmade targets indoor cooks and small commercial kitchens, while Blackstone is geared toward outdoor backyard cooking.

Like traditional cast iron cookware, the cooking surface requires a thin layer of cooking oil baked in at high heat before first use, and periodic re-seasoning after cleaning to maintain the non-stick patina. Flaxseed oil or grapeseed oil are popular choices for achieving a durable seasoning layer.

Steelmade offers their flat top griddles in multiple burner configurations, typically ranging from 2-burner models up to designs covering six burners for commercial or high-volume cooking. The larger sizes provide enough surface area to cook for large groups simultaneously.
