My wife bought me a Blackstone for my birthday last year (2022). I liked it so much I bought another one for the camper. I really enjoy cooking on them. Anyone else on here into Blackstones (or other flat-tops)? I got the 28XL Pro for the house and the 22 On-the-Go for the camper.

Philly Cheese Steak sammiches are my favorite thing to cook, but I’ve cooked fried rice, steak, shrimp, smash burgers, Alice Springs Chicken, salmon, eggs, bacon, sausage…you name it. Here’s one of the first Philly Cheesesteaks I cooked on it. It was as good as it looks.

The Ex and I were eyeballing those for ages, but with the size constraints of tiny-house-living meant we were constantly pussing about looking for a very particular set of dimensions that I can't remember now. I'd like to pick up a small one myself. Kinda miss bacon and eggs...

That camper unit looks pretty sweet. Is the griddle removable?
I think it could be with some doing, but it’s made to fold for transport. It will stand upright on its end when folded. When we’re traveling, it rides inside the camper. When we set up, I get it out and set it up near the rear of the camper. I plumbed a propane line to the rear so I can use the camper’s propane. It came with the little adapter tube to use the green disposable canisters. Three cooks and you’re out. Not going that route! You can set the whole unit up on a picnic table if you wanted, just have to put something under the handle end to level up.

I started out with a 17”, but I wanted the 22”. More cooking surface, and the 22” has two burners, giving more flexibility. The single burner on the 17” means you have less options. My first one was like this:

I have a list of recipes I want to try on the Blackstone. One is Garlic Parmesan Chicken Skewers…
