We love our griddle and it is exactly what we wanted for cooking meals to a large crowd at the family lake house. It heats up quickly and evenly and the large surface area allows me to cook eggs, hashbrowns, and bacon at the same time. What I was most impressed with was the customer service I received in helping me select the right product and then ensuring the griddle we received was the highest quality. I am now a Pit Boss customer for life.
