A portable griddle is a small plancha you can carry: a flat steel or stainless plate over one to three propane burners, sized to sit on a folding table at a campsite, a tailgate or a balcony. It is the easiest way to cook breakfast tacos for a campsite, sear steak for carne asada at a ballgame, or warm a stack of tortillas at the park without dragging a 130-pound cart along.
This guide covers tabletop and fold-up propane griddles from 17 to 24 inches, plus one grill-and-griddle combo. For each we list the cooking area, burners, BTU, plate, grease system, lid, fuel and weight, taken from the maker or the Amazon listing. Weight is the number makers most often leave out; where neither source gives it, we say “Not stated”.

Quick verdict: which portable griddle to buy
For most people, the best portable outdoor griddle is the Blackstone 22-inch Tabletop Griddle with Hood: 361 square inches over two independent heat zones, rear grease management and a hood that protects the plate in the car. If space in the trunk is tight, the Blackstone 17-inch Omnivore Tabletop is the compact option. To skip seasoning entirely, the Solo Stove Steelfire 22-inch has a clad stainless cooktop, and for RV trips the Flame King 17-inch Flat Top has a nonstick plate and runs on a 1 lb canister or a 20 lb tank. If you want a griddle that stands on its own legs, look at the Blackstone 22-inch Griddle with Flexfold Legs.
The table compares the five picks we would steer most people toward, one for each kind of trip. All nine griddles are reviewed in full after it.

Our picks for the best portable outdoor griddle
These nine griddles cover the ways people actually travel with a flat top: a 17-inch single burner for a small car, the 22-inch two-burner class that suits most families, a three-burner 24-inch for more zones, a fold-up model with its own legs and a combo with grill grates. Each pick explains who it suits, the specs that matter when you carry it, and one honest reason to skip it.
1. Blackstone 22-inch Tabletop Griddle with Hood – Two Zones That Pack Up Clean
Blackstone’s 22-inch tabletop is the size that makes sense for most trips. The listing gives 361 square inches of cooking space, enough for 14 burgers, across two independently heated zones, so one side can sear chorizo and steak while the other warms tortillas or keeps eggs gentle.
The integrated hood is the reason to choose this version over the plain 22-inch. It protects the cooking surface from scratches when the griddle is not in use, which matters when it is riding in a trunk next to coolers and chairs. Grease goes to the back through Blackstone’s patented rear grease management system, the body is powder-coated steel with a stainless front plate, and push-and-turn piezo ignition lights it without matches. Non-slip feet keep it in place on a folding table.
On fuel, Blackstone’s page for its Original 22-inch hooded tabletop says it uses a one-pound regulator with no adapter hose included, and the same page lists 24,000 BTU across the two zones. Blackstone sells a separate 3-foot adapter hose with regulator that connects its 17- and 22-inch griddles to a 20 lb tank if you would rather not buy small cylinders. The 1813 listing itself gives neither BTU nor weight.
Why we like it
- 361 sq in over two independent heat zones
- Integrated hood protects the plate in transit
- Rear grease management
- Piezo ignition and non-slip feet
- Optional Blackstone hose for a 20 lb tank
Key specifications
| Model | 1813 |
|---|---|
| Cooking area | 361 sq in |
| Burners | 2 independently controlled zones |
| BTU | Not stated in the listing; Blackstone lists 24,000 for its Original 22-inch hooded tabletop |
| Plate material | Not stated in the listing (stainless front panel, powder-coated steel body) |
| Grease management | Rear grease cup |
| Lid | Integrated hood |
| Fuel | 1 lb propane cylinder (Blackstone); 20 lb with optional hose |
| Weight | Not stated in the listing |
Why we recommend it
It hits the balance most people want: enough surface for a family breakfast or a round of tacos for four, two zones so everything is not at one heat, and a hood so the plate arrives at the campsite the way it left home. Blackstone’s large range of covers and bags for the 22-inch size is a bonus.
Skip it if every pound counts. Blackstone does not publish this model’s weight, and a 22-inch steel plate with a hood is heavier than the 17-inch single-burner.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Two heat zones
- Hood included
- Rear grease system
- Runs on 1 lb or 20 lb propane
Cons
- Weight not stated
- Adapter hose sold separately
- Needs a sturdy table
2. Blackstone 17-inch Omnivore Tabletop Griddle – Small Enough for Any Trunk
The 17-inch is Blackstone’s smallest propane griddle, and for two to four people it is often all you need. The listing gives 267 square inches of cooking space over a single H-style burner, which Blackstone says heats the top evenly. That is room for a dozen eggs and a pile of potatoes, or carne asada for a small group with tortillas warming at the edge.
It keeps the features of the bigger models: the Omnivore plate, Blackstone’s patented rear grease management, a stainless steel front plate, push-and-turn piezo ignition and sturdy non-slip feet. There is no hood on this version, so pack a cover or Blackstone’s 17-inch carry bag.
The same Blackstone adapter hose fits the 17-inch, so you can switch between 1 lb cylinders on the road and a 20 lb tank at home. The listing does not give the BTU or the weight.
Why we like it
- Compact 17-inch footprint, 267 sq in
- H-style burner for even heat (Blackstone)
- Rear grease management
- Stainless front plate and piezo ignition
Key specifications
| Model | 1971 |
|---|---|
| Cooking area | 267 sq in |
| Burners | 1 H-style |
| BTU | Not stated in the listing |
| Plate material | Omnivore griddle plate (steel type not stated) |
| Grease management | Rear grease cup |
| Lid | None |
| Fuel | 1 lb propane cylinder; 20 lb with optional Blackstone hose |
| Weight | Not stated in the listing |
Why we recommend it
Choose it for couples, small families, hunting trips and small cars. One burner is simple to manage, and a 17-inch plate heats up quickly on a small cylinder.
Skip it if you cook for more than four. With one burner there is only one heat zone, so you cannot keep tortillas warm at a lower heat while steak sears at full.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Smallest Blackstone propane griddle
- Rear grease system
- Works with 1 lb or 20 lb propane
Cons
- Single heat zone
- No hood
- BTU and weight not stated
3. Solo Stove Steelfire 22-inch Propane Griddle – Stainless, No Seasoning
Most portable griddles are bare steel, which means seasoning before the first cook and oiling after every one so the plate does not rust in a damp trunk. Solo Stove’s Steelfire takes a different route: a 3-ply clad stainless steel cooktop that the listing says needs no seasoning, resists rust and wipes clean.
The cooking surface measures 21.75 by 16.5 inches, or 321.7 square inches, over Solo Stove’s patent-pending racetrack burner rated at 14,000 BTU. Solo Stove says it reaches searing temperature in about seven minutes and heats roughly 35 percent faster than cast iron, and names fajitas among the foods it is built for. An integrated rear grease tray collects scraps.
It is one of the few griddles here that states its weight: 38.7 pounds, at 24.3 inches wide, 22.4 deep and 8.6 high. It runs on a standard 1 lb propane cylinder. Stainless steel does not release food quite as easily as a well-seasoned steel plate, so use a little oil and let things sear before you move them.
Why we like it
- 3-ply clad stainless cooktop, no seasoning (Solo Stove)
- Rust resistant for trips in wet weather
- 321.7 sq in over a 14,000 BTU racetrack burner
- Weight stated: 38.7 lb
- Rear grease tray
Key specifications
| Model | Steelfire 22″ (model number not stated) |
|---|---|
| Cooking area | 321.7 sq in (21.75 x 16.5 in) |
| Burners | 1 racetrack burner |
| BTU | 14,000 |
| Plate material | 3-ply clad stainless steel |
| Grease management | Integrated rear grease tray |
| Lid | Not stated |
| Fuel | 1 lb propane cylinder |
| Weight | 38.7 lb |
Why we recommend it
It suits occasional campers and anyone who stores the griddle for weeks between trips. With no seasoning to maintain and a rust-resistant surface, it is the least work to own of any griddle here.
Skip it if you want a dark, slick seasoned surface for eggs and pancakes, or two separate heat zones. It has one burner and a stainless top that needs oil to release food.
Pros and cons
Pros
- No seasoning
- Rust resistant
- Stated weight and size
Cons
- Single heat zone
- Stainless needs oil to release
- Lid not stated
4. Flame King 17-inch Flat Top Portable Propane Griddle – Nonstick Plate for RV Trips
Flame King is a propane-equipment brand, and this 17-inch flat top is built for RV owners as much as for campers: the listing calls it motorhome compatible and describes it as a complete grilling station. It runs on a single burner rated at 12,000 BTU with an adjustable flame controller, and the listing gives a cooking area of over 260 square inches.
The plate is what sets it apart from the bare-steel griddles on this list. Flame King describes it as Teflon-coated nonstick cast iron, ready to cook on, so there is no seasoning step before the first breakfast. The trade-off is care: the listing warns that metal utensils may peel or scratch the coating over time and recommends wood, silicone or nylon tools, which means leaving the metal spatula at home.
Cleanup goes through an oil-collection hole into a detachable grease cup that you can wash. The griddle works with a 1 lb propane canister or a 20 lb tank, neither included, according to the listing. The listing does not state the weight or whether a lid is included, and it gives the warranty only as “90” with no unit, adding that it is void if the griddle is bought from a seller other than Flame King or Amazon.
Why we like it
- Nonstick cast iron plate, no seasoning step
- Single 12,000 BTU burner with adjustable flame control
- Over 260 sq in, per the listing
- Runs on a 1 lb canister or a 20 lb tank
- Detachable, washable grease cup
Key specifications
| Model | YSNFM-HT-100NB |
|---|---|
| Cooking area | Over 260 sq in |
| Burners | 1 |
| BTU | 12,000 |
| Plate material | Teflon-coated nonstick cast iron |
| Grease management | Oil hole and detachable grease cup |
| Lid | Not stated |
| Fuel | 1 lb canister or 20 lb tank (not included) |
| Weight | Not stated |
Why we recommend it
Choose it for RV trips and casual campsite breakfasts where you want eggs, pancakes and quesadillas to release easily without building up seasoning first.
Skip it if you cook with metal spatulas or want to smash burgers hard into the plate. A bare steel top like the Blackstone or Cuisinart takes that abuse better than a coating.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Nonstick plate, no seasoning
- 1 lb or 20 lb propane
- Washable grease cup
Cons
- No metal utensils on the coating
- Weight, lid and warranty term not clearly stated
5. Blackstone 22-inch Griddle with Flexfold Legs – Rolls Like a Suitcase
A tabletop griddle needs a table, and campsite picnic tables are not always level or free. Blackstone’s OTG 22-inch with Flexfold legs brings its own stand. The listing describes a locking hood, wheels, fold-flat legs and a handle on the side shelf, so the whole unit collapses and rolls like a suitcase.
The cooking side matches the tabletop: 361 square inches on the Omnivore plate with built-in wind guards, two independently controlled burners, and enough room for two to four people, according to the listing. A side shelf gives you space for a cutting board, and Blackstone’s page says the latching hood protects the top in transit and storage, with rear grease management for cleanup.
The trade-off is weight. Blackstone’s store lists this model at 78 pounds, about twice the weight of a tabletop, so it is portable in the sense of rolling, not carrying. Neither Blackstone nor the listing gives the BTU or says which propane tank size it is set up for.
Why we like it
- Own legs: no table needed
- Locking hood, wheels and handle
- 361 sq in over two burners
- Side shelf for prep
Key specifications
| Model | 2350 |
|---|---|
| Cooking area | 361 sq in |
| Burners | 2 independently controlled |
| BTU | Not stated |
| Plate material | Omnivore griddle plate with wind guards (steel type not stated) |
| Grease management | Rear grease management (Blackstone) |
| Lid | Locking hood |
| Fuel | Propane; cylinder size not stated |
| Weight | 78 lb (Blackstone store) |
Why we recommend it
It suits RV campers, tailgaters with a truck and anyone who keeps the griddle on a balcony and rolls it into a closet between uses. Built-in legs put the plate at a comfortable cooking height wherever you park.
Skip it if you have to carry the griddle any distance. At 78 pounds, it is meant to roll.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Stands on its own
- Locking hood
- Wheels and handle
Cons
- Heavy at 78 lb
- BTU not stated
- Fuel setup not stated
6. Royal Gourmet 3-Burner Tabletop Griddle – Three Zones on 24 Inches
Royal Gourmet’s PD1301S puts three independently controlled burners under a 24-inch tabletop, which gives you three heat zones in a size that still fits in a car trunk. The listing gives 304 square inches of cooking space, room for 12 burgers, and 25,500 BTU in total.
Three zones are useful on a small plate: hot for steak, medium for peppers and onions, low for tortillas, the same layout a cook uses on a much bigger flat top. The steel surface is 3.5 mm thick, which the listing says helps even out the heat. The griddle top detaches for cleaning, a removable cup collects grease, and the piezo ignition needs no battery.
The listing does not give the weight, the fuel cylinder size or a lid, so check the product photos and questions on the listing for those details.
Why we like it
- Three independent burners, 25,500 BTU
- 3.5 mm thick steel surface
- Detachable griddle top for cleaning
- Removable grease cup and piezo ignition
Key specifications
| Model | PD1301S |
|---|---|
| Cooking area | 304 sq in |
| Burners | 3 independently controlled |
| BTU | 25,500 |
| Plate material | 3.5 mm steel |
| Grease management | Removable grease cup |
| Lid | Not stated |
| Fuel | Propane; cylinder size not stated |
| Weight | Not stated |
Why we recommend it
Choose it if you want more heat control than a two-burner tabletop gives you, without moving up to a full cart. It is the most zones per inch on this list.
Skip it if you need to know the weight and fuel setup before you buy, because the listing gives neither.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Three heat zones
- Thick 3.5 mm plate
- Top detaches for cleaning
Cons
- Weight not stated
- Fuel setup not stated
- No lid listed
7. Cuisinart 17-inch Tabletop Gas Griddle – Quick to Set Up, Long Warranty
Cuisinart’s 17-inch tabletop is a straightforward single-burner griddle with one standout detail: a three-year limited warranty, longer than any other on this list. The listing gives 255 square inches of carbon steel cooking surface, enough for 12 burgers or six steaks, over a single stainless steel burner rated at 12,000 BTU.
Assembly is minimal: Cuisinart says you attach the legs and grease cup brackets and can be cooking in 15 minutes. A grease cup catches drippings. It is a good size for breakfast tacos for two or three, or for a quick batch of quesadillas at a picnic.
Carbon steel needs seasoning before the first cook and a thin coat of oil afterward. The listing does not give the weight, the propane cylinder size or a lid.
Why we like it
- Three-year limited warranty
- 255 sq in carbon steel surface
- 12,000 BTU stainless steel burner
- Assembles in about 15 minutes (Cuisinart)
Key specifications
| Model | CGG-9291 |
|---|---|
| Cooking area | 255 sq in |
| Burners | 1 stainless steel |
| BTU | 12,000 |
| Plate material | Carbon steel |
| Grease management | Grease cup |
| Lid | Not stated |
| Fuel | Propane; cylinder size not stated |
| Weight | Not stated |
Why we recommend it
It suits one to three people who want a simple griddle from a familiar kitchen brand with a longer warranty than most.
Skip it if you want two heat zones or need the weight before you buy. It has one burner, and Cuisinart does not list the weight.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Three-year warranty
- Quick assembly
- Compact
Cons
- Single heat zone
- Smallest surface here
- Weight and fuel not stated
8. Nexgrill 1-Burner Portable Griddle with Lid – Lid and Hose in the Box
Nexgrill’s single-burner griddle comes with two things the others leave out: a protective lid and an LP hose with regulator, so it is ready to connect without buying extra parts. The listing gives 271 square inches of hot-rolled steel cooking surface over a 12,000 BTU burner, with piezo ignition and a removable grease cup.
The lid keeps dust and moisture off the plate between uses, which helps a bare steel top stay rust-free. Hot-rolled steel needs seasoning; Nexgrill says a seasoned surface improves flavor and reduces sticking.
Because it ships with a hose and regulator, check whether it suits the propane you plan to use: the listing does not say whether it also takes a 1 lb cylinder directly. It does not give the weight either.
Why we like it
- Protective lid included
- LP hose and regulator included
- 271 sq in hot-rolled steel, 12,000 BTU
- Removable grease cup
Key specifications
| Model | 820-0081 |
|---|---|
| Cooking area | 271 sq in |
| Burners | 1 |
| BTU | 12,000 |
| Plate material | Hot-rolled steel |
| Grease management | Removable grease cup |
| Lid | Protective lid |
| Fuel | Propane; LP hose and regulator included |
| Weight | Not stated |
Why we recommend it
Choose it if you want a complete kit with a lid in the box, for a patio or campsite where you already bring a larger propane tank.
Skip it if you only want to use 1 lb cylinders, because the listing does not confirm that setup.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Lid included
- Hose and regulator included
- Bare steel takes seasoning
Cons
- Single heat zone
- 1 lb cylinder use not confirmed
- Weight not stated
9. Royal Gourmet 4-Burner Tailgater Grill and Griddle Combo – Grates on One Side
Some trips call for both a flat top and grill marks. Royal Gourmet’s GD4002T pairs a ceramic-coated griddle plate with cast iron cooking grates over four independently controlled stainless steel burners, 10,000 BTU each for 40,000 in total, across 430 square inches.
That lets you char whole jalapeños, green onions and corn on the grates while the flat side cooks eggs, steak or tortillas. Electronic ignition lights it with one push once the knobs are turned to high, and a grooved drip tray channels grease into a cup.
It is the largest unit here, built to ride in a pickup bed. The listing does not give the weight, the propane setup or whether there is a lid.
Why we like it
- Griddle and cast iron grill grates together
- Four burners, 40,000 BTU
- 430 sq in in total
- Electronic ignition
Key specifications
| Model | GD4002T |
|---|---|
| Cooking area | 430 sq in (grill and griddle combined) |
| Burners | 4 stainless steel, independently controlled |
| BTU | 40,000 (10,000 each) |
| Plate material | Ceramic-coated griddle; cast iron grates |
| Grease management | Grooved drip tray and grease cup |
| Lid | Not stated |
| Fuel | Propane; setup not stated |
| Weight | Not stated |
Why we recommend it
It suits tailgaters who want to grill and griddle from one unit, and carne asada cooks who like a little char from grates alongside a flat top for tortillas.
Skip it if you need something you can lift with one hand. It is the biggest unit here and the listing gives no weight.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Grill and griddle in one
- Four heat zones
- Coated griddle needs less care
Cons
- Largest and bulkiest here
- Weight and fuel setup not stated
How to choose a portable griddle
Five things decide whether a portable griddle suits your trips. Size and fuel matter more than brand.
1. Size and heat zones
A 17-inch single burner (about 255 to 270 square inches) feeds two to four people. A 22-inch two-burner (about 320 to 360 square inches) handles a family and gives you a hot side and a cool side, which is how a restaurant line runs a plancha: sear on one end, warm tortillas and rest meat on the other. Three burners on a 24-inch top give you three zones in roughly the same space.
2. Fuel: 1 lb cylinders or a 20 lb tank
Most tabletop griddles are built for disposable or refillable 1 lb propane cylinders, which are light and easy to pack. For longer cooks, an adapter hose lets you run from a 20 lb tank instead: Blackstone sells one for its 17- and 22-inch griddles. Some griddles, like Nexgrill’s, ship with a hose and regulator for a larger tank. Check which setup a griddle comes with before you leave home.
3. Weight
Makers are oddly shy about this. Of the nine griddles here, only Solo Stove (38.7 pounds) and Blackstone for its Flexfold model (78 pounds) publish a weight we could confirm. A steel plate is most of the mass, so a 22-inch top will always weigh more than a 17-inch one. If you will carry it more than a few steps, pick up the box at a store first.
4. Plate material and care
Bare steel, whether rolled, hot-rolled, cold-rolled or carbon steel, needs seasoning and a thin coat of oil after every cook, or it rusts in a damp trunk. Stainless steel, like the Solo Stove’s, skips seasoning but needs a little oil to release food. Ceramic-coated plates resist rust but need gentler tools. For more on stainless cooking surfaces, see our guide to the best stainless steel griddle pan.
5. Lid, grease and wind
A hood or lid protects the plate in transit. A rear or slide-out grease cup that you can empty easily keeps a small griddle from overflowing during a bacon-and-chorizo breakfast. Wind guards, like those built into Blackstone’s Omnivore plate, help a small burner keep the plate hot outdoors.
How we chose these nine griddles
We started from what a working kitchen needs from a small flat top: an even, hot surface, at least one cooler zone where possible, easy grease cleanup, and a size you can actually carry. We then narrowed the field to propane tabletop and fold-up griddles sold on Amazon in the United States and in stock when we checked, and confirmed each specification on the maker’s own page or the brand’s Amazon listing, saying “Not stated” where neither gave a figure. We left out models that were out of stock or showing very low stock when we checked, including Weber’s Slate 17- and 22-inch tabletops, Camp Chef’s Gridiron Gameday and Royal Gourmet’s PD1305H, and skipped unbranded sellers. We have not cooked on these griddles for this guide, and we did not consult outside equipment reviews for it.
Propane safety at the campsite
Read the manual for your griddle first. The National Fire Protection Association’s grilling safety tip sheet gives these rules for propane grills, and they apply just as well to a portable propane griddle:
- Use propane grills only outdoors, well away from buildings, deck railings, eaves and overhanging branches. That rules out tents, garages and RV interiors.
- Keep children and pets at least three feet away, and never leave the cooker unattended.
- Check the hose for leaks before the first use each year with a light soap and water solution: bubbles mean a leak.
- If you smell gas while cooking, get away immediately and call the fire department. Do not move the grill.
- If the flame goes out, turn the gas off and wait at least 15 minutes before relighting.
- Remove grease buildup from the trays below.
Portable griddle questions, answered
What size portable griddle do I need?
For two to four people, a 17-inch single burner is enough. For a family or a group, a 22-inch two-burner gives you more space and two heat zones. Go to three burners or a combo if you want more control or grill grates.
Can a portable griddle run on a 20 lb propane tank?
Many can, with an adapter hose and regulator. Blackstone sells one for its 17- and 22-inch tabletop griddles, and Nexgrill’s single-burner ships with a hose and regulator. Check the maker’s instructions for your model.
What is the lightest portable griddle here?
Of the weights we could confirm, the Solo Stove Steelfire 22-inch at 38.7 pounds. The 17-inch single-burner models are likely lighter, but Blackstone, Cuisinart and Flame King do not publish their weights.
Do I need to season a portable griddle?
If the plate is bare steel, yes: season it before the first cook and oil it lightly after each one. The Solo Stove’s stainless cooktop needs no seasoning, and ceramic-coated plates need little.
Can I cook Mexican food on a portable griddle?
It is one of the best uses for one. Sear thin steak for carne asada, cook peppers and onions for fajitas, make smash tacos, warm tortillas and cook breakfast tacos for a whole campsite. For the sizzling platter at the table, see our best fajita skillet guide.
Our final pick for the road
Buy the Blackstone 22-inch Tabletop Griddle with Hood if you want one portable griddle with two heat zones, rear grease management and a hood for the trip. Choose the 17-inch Blackstone for a small car, the Solo Stove Steelfire if you never want to season a plate, the Flame King 17-inch for RV trips, and the Blackstone Flexfold if you need a griddle that stands on its own. Whichever you choose, keep it outdoors, check the hose and oil the plate after every cook.
