So after recently upgrading a few items for my grilling needs (Thermapen, Maverick etc), I have decided I want a nice griddle for the BBQ.
I have always lusted after a Griddle-Q, but shied away from the price. Knowing how well they are made, lifetime warranty and how versatile they appear to be, I want one.
Looking at both price and function, it appears the 1/2 Griddle GQ120 would best suit me needs. It will allow me to use 1/2 the grill for meat and 1/2 for onions, eggs or whatever else I can throw on the Griddle.
When I first started looking, they were build with the cut out handles, but recently switched and are now branded "Little Griddle", but appear to be the same size, build quality, warranty...but have switched the handle design.
Not sure I like the idea of "removable handles" as they will get lost, loose and just look plain awkward. I have an email in to the maker to see if they have any "old stock", but was wondering if anyone has any first hand experience. In the video, the handles appear to be bolted on, which would be fine but it doesn't appear to be an option and might be a custom mod done after-market.
Thoughts, experience, suggestions are welcome.
