just got ours and brought it on a camping trip.......boy I have a lot to learn! Was gonna season it while here at the campsite, duh maybe not. Its July in Jacksonville FL. Didn't think the weather was too bad until I looked at the heat index. Oh well live and learn, can't wait for fall!!!!

Why didn't you use avocado oil to initially season? is it because if you use too high of a smoke point the sides will never get seasoned because the sides can't reach that smoking point of say 500+?

I like the add ons the Camp Chef have and the idea you can remove the flat top and turn it into a gas grill or pizza oven or...well you get the idea.I already have one no reason to spend more money on another but you have the luxury of checking out both (plus there are others like Sam's club has one heck my local Super Market has one (not Blackstones) so choose carefully! :)

The handle is connected by 2 screws from the underside. Instead of counter sinking them they left the heads(of the screws) protruding so it didn't lie flat?? it was expensive as well (QVC had a 3 month pay out with no interest or I wouldn't have gotten it) there are many good deals on Amazon that cost 1/3 as much. (with flat bottoms lol) sorry I cant help more

Ground round is less than 10% fat. Not great for burgers but ok. Just less flavorful. Ground chuck is around 19% fat and is great for burgers. Try cutting potatoes in about 1/2" to 3/4" squares, throw them in a plastic contain with butter, garlic, salt, and pepper. Put a lid on it and shake it around to mix. Then toss the potatoes on the grill with a little oil. I usually leave the potato skin on too. Delicious!!! So many things you can do with this grill. I have the 22" for my RV.

@@GadjetGriller it's likely condensation instead of the cover leaking. Wipe the hot griddle with oil after every cook, don't let it burn off, turn off the heat. This will ensure the griddle is completely dry and protect it until used again as the oil will caramelize a little. Also, as I understand, the soft cover is to be used with the hard cover. The handles don't allow water to pool on the soft cover.

Funny you should say that...lol I hate it when I try to do the right thing but it still backfires. We have had a lot of rain (especially for West Texas) so I was happy I had gotten the cover for it. however turns out the cover is pretty useless when it comes to water??? (the only reason I got the cover was to help keep it from rusting!) so when I took the cover off a couple days ago (was going to do breakfast) the whole top was rusted?? So I'm waiting for the rain to subside (rained again last night lol) before I start to clean it up. So some time in the near future I'll do a video on how to revive it!

Next time, put down some clarified butter before trying to toast the buns, also form your burger into looseish balls of meat and then press them with your press that you used to just set on top of things, that's why your burgers took so long to color up, you get a speckled burger rather than a full crust on either side when you cook from pre-formed patties.

You can see the wind is really blowing your burner flames beneath the ckg platter and causing a lot of uneven cook top temps. Not to mention making you waste too much fuel. . . Way too much. I suggest you make an enclosure from stacked decorative bricks ( no concrete ) to block the wind on 3 sides. Probably 5ft. high . . . you might even add a nice shelf and a partial roof while you're at it You will be able to use it for any future grills And it will look nice. Study your normal wind direction and plan accordingly You will cook Evenly, Hot and Fuel will always be set on LOW. You will be surprised . . . In my case . . . a 20lb. bottle lasts me 2 seasons

My Luck I wasn't home when they delivered it (to refuse it) so when I went to return it Amazon said I had to pay for the shipping it was a little more than half the price of the 28!?!? so I kept it (I'm sure Amazons ploy all along I put in the stop ordered the same day I ordered it, it had not gone out yet oh well) Decided to keep it I m thinking about doing some armature BBQ comps around the area might come in handy or thinking about buying a cabin would go great on the deck !!
