Cast Iron Griddle using Weber Spirit Propane-fired Grill

Yesterday, I received a 10" by 20" cast iron, pre-seasoned griddle from Amazon, with the idea of using it while camping, and at home outside on the patio, fired by the gas grill. The griddle arrived pre-seasoned, but I washed it, rubbed it with lard, and baked it in the oven for a half hour. Now, I was ready to try it out!

Photo: As the clock on the wall reads, it's 20 minutes to 12:00 on Sunday, June 12, 2022, and I proudly show off my new cast iron griddle, in front of my propane-fired Weber Spirit grill. The griddle is reversible, as the other side is actually a grill. You'll see the other side when I make dinner later this afternoon.

Photo: Today's breakfast, fried on the griddle using my propane grill is two thick slices of Applewood bacon, two eggs, country potatoes, corn tortillas, and a jalapiño pepper. I greased the griddle with lard, which gives great flavor.

Photo: I'm a happy breakfast chef, as my breakfast fries on the griddle. The Weber propane grill makes a perfect heat source, and I'm glad to know that I've found another way to enjoy this amazing grill.

Photo: Breakfast was ready in only about 10 minutes. Today was my first day using a griddle with my propane grill, and unfortunately the egg yokes turned out on the hard side, but they were great anyway. I added an orange for garnish and added flavor.

Photo: Late in the afternoon, I flipped the griddle over, to make it a grill, lit the Weber grill, and began grilling dinner, using the grill side of the cast iron griddle. Like with breakfast, I used lard ensure nothing would stick.

Photo: Tonight's dinner frying on the grill side of the cast iron griddle. Actually, I made dinner for two nights, as this was a LOT of food! I'm grilling a marinated lamb steak, corn, potato, mushrooms, tomatillos and another jalapiño pepper. This would make a great meal for a camping dinner.

Photo: Hot off the grill, and dinner is served and enjoyed outside on the patio.

As you can see in the photos, the griddle was a resounding success, as both meals came out as planned. At $29.25, this griddle was a bargain, and I anticipate many delicious future meals, both cooked at home, and in the great outdoors.
