Blaze LTE+ Griddle

Cold-rolled steel is preferred for griddles because it develops a natural non-stick seasoning over time and offers superior heat retention. This allows for a more consistent sear across the entire 30-inch surface compared to stainless steel.

Yes, because this unit is designed for natural gas and is a built-in configuration, it must be connected to your home's natural gas supply by a licensed professional to ensure safety and proper pressure.

The integrated leveling screws allow you to adjust the pitch of the griddle surface. This is particularly useful for ensuring grease flows properly into the drip trough rather than pooling on the cooking surface.

Beyond adding a modern aesthetic, the LED lights serve as a safety feature by glowing red whenever the gas flow is active. This provides a clear visual indicator that the burners are on, even in low-light conditions.

While not strictly required for cooking, the hood is highly beneficial for protecting the griddle surface from debris and weather when not in use. The spring-assisted design makes it easy to lift and close without requiring significant physical effort.

After each use, scrape off food residue while the griddle is still warm, then wipe it down with a light coat of high-smoke-point oil to prevent rust. Avoid using harsh soaps or abrasive scrubbers that could strip the seasoning you have built up.
