Do I Need A Flat Top Grill or a Griddle?

Before investing in a flat top grill or commercial griddle, it’s important to consider your kitchen’s needs. While both implements involve a flat surface heated from below, there are some significant differences between flat top grills and griddles that can influence which one is right for your kitchen. Commercial griddles have a smooth, flat surface that s perfect for bacon, French toast or even burgers. Because there are no grooves, this is an ideal surface for things that need to be tossed and scattered to cook, such as eggs or hashed potatoes.

Flat top grills, on the other hand, feature traditional ridges without open grates. This provides the lovely grill marks that make burgers, panini sandwiches and similar foods attractive as well as tasty.

What is the different between a Char Grill and Grill?

Tips from the Experts

"Is the commercial griddle your bread and butter or something you use only occasionally? If you’re a short order cook, you’re going to outgrow a 24’ griddle real quick. Thickness of the plates matter as well. If you’re going to get anything more than a 3 feet grill surface, then get a 1’ inch thick plate because it will last longer." -Jake
