Blackstone's New Camping Griddle Stove Revealed: Adventure Ready

[@673Piper]

It’s my understanding that it’s a ceramic/titanium coating. NOT Teflon.

[@showtimes1000]

Great review I’ve had this model for a few months and love it . Just a few things tho. The griddle is aluminum and it’s nonstick pre seasoned so no need to season and don’t use metal on it. The tray actually comes out of the back and the table that holds it in swings down so you hook it on the back and the tab braces it from the bottom. They make the throw away catch can liners and they are awesome. Hope you enjoy yours as much as we do ours. Way lighter than our old camping black stone for sure.

[@grubandgravel]

Ya, I had brain block on the aluminum part until after I had posted. Thanks for the tip on the liners and the drip pan.

[@juketreks2192]

I cook on mine just about everyday. I got the gear made by Blackstone to cook with on this type of teflon griddle. I even got the burger smasher. Great system. Makes breakfast so easy. Makes dinner easy too. I have too many stoves but this one has all my attention since I got it.

[@grubandgravel]

I like it a lot. With this unit and the matching air fryer, I have been making pretty much anything I want at camp. It's a pretty slick line of products. Thanks for watching.

[@blackparrapparelllc.2428]

Great reivew! The grease tray comes out and mounts horizontally on the back there! Enjoy!

[@grubandgravel]

Thanks! Will do!

[@contention100]

I have a buddy that has a full size standup Blackstone, and he cooks everything on it. Absolutely loves it. I'm getting one of these.

[@johnsimon7867]

Wife and I bought a camper last year and this is now definitely on the list of must have. Great review thanks alot!!

[@grubandgravel]

Thanks for watching. It really is a good value.

[@MonkeeKnucklez2]

This looks like exactly what my wife and I have wanted in a camp stove. We have made-do with a Coleman and an after market addition of a Nordic Ware 14” backsplash griddle. This has worked great, but it would be nice to have something that is purpose-built and fits into one neat little package like this.

[@bucky716]

The plastic handle broke on mine after less than 10 uses. One side completely cracked off and the other side has a crack in it. Was unsure about the non stick but love it. Easy to cook on, lighter to take it places, and easy to clean up. Blackstone is sending me a replacement handle at no cost but I'll be visiting a store to find something that isn't plastic. It was only being carried about 20ft at most from car to camp site. Something to keep an eye on, wouldn't want it breaking when carrying it.

[@grubandgravel]

Thanks for the heads up. I'm kind of hard on things, so I'll keep my eye out.

[@jwusti85]

Mine broke as well. Definitely a horrible plastic handle.

[@bucky716]

@@jwusti85 uses a 4 3/4" handle. I ordered a metal one on Amazon and then got shorter screws from Home Depot. Easy to disassemble but still annoying. Blackstone will send a replacement but it's still plastic.

[@grubandgravel]

Welp, 2 days of use and my handle is now broken also.

[@GamerNxUSN]

so its not a true carbon steel or cast iron?

[@dianashelton1371]

Wow! This may be exactly what I have been looking for! Remodeling and upgrading my RV. Nothing really wrong with my stove top, but it is 2 burner, showing a bit of rust but it can be taken outside. We like to grill outside so carry a small Coleman. This could replace them both plus the little green gas bottles. Great review

[@grubandgravel]

Thanks for watching. Wanted to make sure you saw my note in description, that it is a ceramic titanium coated aluminum griddle not cast iron as I mistakenly said.

[@erickaesman4001]

I just got back from a four day trip with this new stove. It worked great. Its just me and the dogs and i was looking for a simple stove for my coffee pot and a flattop for bacon/eggs/burgers/fajitas and this thing kicked butt! The local Walmart had it in stock. My cast iron pans wont fit this burner but I have my other propane stove for a bigger group or if the meal requires cast iron. I highly recommend this stove!

[@jbcoker]

Just picked mine up last weekend. I absolutely love it. I do intend to get the adapter for the bigger propane tanks, don't like the 1lb bottles.

[@grubandgravel]

It really is a great value. Thanks for watching.

[@kevinbowes2171]

I just picked up an adaptor and 12’ hose together for 22.00 on Amazon

[@jbcoker]

@@kevinbowes2171 I’m all over that!

[@trailblazer151]

Great review. I thought they went with aluminum for weight savings instead of their usual cast iron griddle.

[@grubandgravel]

Good call! After further examination of the box, it is indeed aluminum.

[@MissionOffRoad]

To the thousands of people who watched this and will watch this, HIT SUBSCRIBE for the man! Thank you.

[@mastery4living187]

Blackstone shut up and just take my money. I just bought a Coleman, haven't used it yet, but thinking of taking it back after seeing this review. I have the 22" Griddle and 36" Griddle from Backstone, both of which I love. But would like to test this Adventure out. Thanks for the review. I'm off to Walmart!

[@grubandgravel]

Thanks for watching. I mistakenly said it was iron when the griddle is aluminum. But I think most camping grills on the market are aluminum anyway, sooo.

[@arkieoutdoors]

love it, I use a 17" Blackstone with a fish fryer on it now. I will be picking one up soon. great video bro.

[@grubandgravel]

Right on

[@scottthejeepguy7499]

Nice review, looks like a handy little camp stove, the side burner does look like a big one.

[@coreylynch1722]

Got one and used it a few times camping. Works great!!!

[@dickmag69]

I need one of those ASAP

[@grubandgravel]

when I saw it, I ran the last three feet to the shelf. lol

[@aBluegrassPicker]

Excellent review - looks good!

[@grubandgravel]

Love it. Thanks for watching.

[@paulschimel3572]

It’s pretty nice. I believe though that the griddle has a nonstick coating on this model.

[@grubandgravel]

True. I ripped into the box like Christmas morning and didn't bother to read. I still need a bit of work on my script writing. lol. I noted in the description after it was pointed out. Thanks for checking it out.

[@gfxman14]

The older model is listed at $124 right now. It's all black, so it seems they redesigned this new griddle.

[@grubandgravel]

I had never seen one with a side burner before. Thanks for watching.

[@totoroben]

I would go with a Coleman two burner stove and a cast iron griddle. Especially since this griddle is Teflon coated which will wear out.

[@theghost7083]

Good review! looking for a stove myself ,I will put this one on my list

[@grubandgravel]

Thanks for watching. Side note ; just like some others in the comments mentioned, my handle broke off.

[@dianashelton1371]

I did. I have cast iron when I feel it’s necessary I can put on a burner or campsite grill. I just want to consolidate for day to day for my husband and I. We like to do road trips with minimal time at one spot.

[@jjgonza100]

Can you fit a pan on that burner, looks like the edge of the stove is in the way

[@StanSeo]

That is awesome edit!! Bro~~~ Yes! That's good looking grill! I have to think about it. It's orange!!(Get along with Mojave!!)

[@grubandgravel]

Lol. Thanks, bud. Im working on it. I do like to keep it matching if I can.

[@omni_0101]

It's nice but I've ditched gas in favor of electric. I bought an dual induction burner off Amazon with a fitted cast iron griddle and now I use it at home and while camping. Y'all, invest into a Lithium Iron Phosphate battery bank it will change your (camping) life.

[@grubandgravel]

Nice. I went the electric pellet smoker route. I have 2000wh of ecoflow on the truck running that, a fridge, portable ac/heat, and a Margherita blender. Lol. Im a cook and like to play with various toys. Thanks for watching.

[@armchairzen]

Great review.

[@NoCoverCharge]

Sweet might need this

[@TjtYahoo]

I received a 22 inch Blackstone as a gift on June 21, 2024. While assembling the unit a problem arose. Due to a manufacturing defect the grill would not fit onto the grill body. I notified customer support on the same day. They requested pictures of the problem which I sent that day. FOR ALMOST TWO (2) WEEKS I HEARD NOTHING FROM BLACKSTONE CUSTOMER SUPPORT. THEN AFTER TWO WEEKS THEY WANTED MORE PICTURES!! I responded that they had all the pictures they needed and should quit the runaround and send me the part! Today is July 29th and still nothing from them! They have the WORST CUSTOMER SUPPORT OF ANY COMPANY I HAVE EVER DEALT WITH AND I AM IN MY 70s!!! Good luck if you ever buy anything from this company!!

[@grubandgravel]

Yikes. I think Walmart carries that 22 inch griddle.Have you considered returning it to them or at least trading it for a one that works.

[@TjtYahoo]

@@grubandgravel working on a class action suit. Amazing number of people they have screwed.

[@TourmotoDesign]

I wanted one of these so bad when they came out this spring……until I found out the griddle is aluminum with a nonstick coating. So you have to use plastic tools and treat it like a nonstick pan……not good for a griddle.

[@chriswho6794]

any honest thoughts on the aluminum coated griddle with this vs the standard "known for" Blackstone griddle? ....Does it need griddle "seasoning" ?

[@grubandgravel]

I made pancakes with a light oil spray straight out of the box and it was fine. I honestly missed the part about it being aluminum (its heavy) until after I had done a couple seasoning cycles.

[@impalervlad1456]

Question.. Is the griddle on Blackstone cast iron or cast aluminum?

[@grubandgravel]

ya, its aluminum. I Opened this thing like a kid on christmas morning and should have read better before review.

[@kopparsulfat]

Love my Primus

[@GAdirtroad]

Really nice design and build, however I would not buy it because of the coated aluminum griddle. I would rather it be heavier and use an iron or steel griddle.

[@joshmedina5471]

Can you hook a full size propane tank to that?

[@grubandgravel]

Yes. This is the one I use. amzn.to/4bB98TE

[@monicae67]

They don’t have this on their website?

[@grubandgravel]

Sure do. 10 bucks cheaper at Walmart.

[@stevejensen6210]

Did they charge extra for the Crack in the back of the lid?

[@grubandgravel]

Not sure what you mean. The cutout for the grease drain?

[@potstech]

Blackstone is ripping people off with their 28" Model 2325 griddle. By design it will not go below 400 degrees and has no air gap adjustment to help regulate the flame. Buyer beware.

[@grubandgravel]

Yikes. Thanks for the heads up.

They say it's a ceramic and titanium coating.

[@TheYankmchain]

Why the hell would they not CENTER the element under the griddle?! 💩

[@patriotone755]

Read the reviews on the Adventure on their website…awful. Poor quality build.

[@mrenoch2033]

😢 I like Blackstone products and own several models. Use them for camping, hunting & everything. The big drawback to this grill is the griddle. It should be iron or steel. Blackstone really dropped the ball on this one. An aluminum griddle??- that’s coated with Teflon? This is a disaster waiting to happen and believe me aluminum and Teflon will make you sick overtime and potentially could kill you. Do the research it’s true and just think -on the griddle you scrape it you clean it that Teflon is not going to last if you really truly use it. I would avoid this unless they make an iron or steel griddle to go along with it. The aluminum and Teflon is bad news waiting to happen. Watch for legal action over this😮

[@grubandgravel]

Ya, I assumed they made it the same as the other ones up until after I made this video, and someone pointed it out. I don't remember them making it really prominent on the box, and now I can see why. Thanks for the heads up.

[@coreylynch1722]

Tips for using Teflon cookware safely However, those chemicals have not been used in Teflon products since 2013. Teflon is now considered safe for cooking, with no evidence that Teflon increases the risk of developing cancer.

[@atomicsmith]

@@coreylynch1722”No evidence” is not the same as “will not”. The evidence took years to collect in the first place, so it will take years before we will have a clear picture of the safety with the new formulation.
