I have a question....
I'm not all that familiar with griddles. Can I get the same effect by just plopping a big flat piece of metal on top of my gas grill?
No doubt. You would really need cast iron for a better heat distribution. They sell those. I see them at Lowes and places.
Like any cast you would need to season the thing or sticking could be a problem for a good while. Unless the griddle is to big, you could easily bake it out in the oven in your home kitchen.
