Why the Flat Cooktop Griddle Is the Best Grill Accessory

1. Perfect Searing and Caramelization

The flat cooktop griddle provides an even cooking surface, delivering consistent heat distribution that’s ideal for searing meats and vegetables. Unlike traditional grates, the griddle locks in juices while caramelizing the surface, creating that golden, crispy crust chefs aim for. All food sizzles to perfection in its own juices.

Why It Matters:

The Arteflame’s center grill grate reaches 1,000°F, making it perfect for reverse-searing steak. Move the meat to the griddle to finish cooking to the perfect doneness.

2. Versatile Cooking Options

With a flat cooktop griddle, your grill becomes more than just a barbecue—it becomes a versatile cooking station. From pancakes and eggs to stir-fries and seafood, the griddle lets you cook dishes that would otherwise be impossible on traditional grates.

Example:

Cook a complete breakfast with bacon, eggs, and hash browns on the Arteflame griddle, all at the same time.

3. Ideal for Delicate Foods

The flat surface of the griddle makes it easy to cook delicate foods like fish, shrimp, or scallops. These ingredients can stick to traditional grates or fall through the gaps, but the griddle ensures they cook evenly and retain their shape.

Why It Works:

Arteflame’s griddle heats gently toward the edges, offering precise control for cooking fragile ingredients to perfection.

4. Grill Multiple Foods Simultaneously

Arteflame’s flat cooktop griddle is spacious enough to cook several items at once. The design includes different heat zones, allowing you to cook meats, vegetables, and side dishes at the same time without mixing flavors.

Example:

Sear steaks in the center, caramelize onions in the medium heat zone, and toast buns on the cooler edges—all on one griddle.

5. Even Heat Distribution

The solid steel construction of a flat griddle ensures even heat distribution, eliminating hot spots and ensuring consistent cooking. Whether you’re grilling thin slices of zucchini or thick chicken breasts, every bite will be evenly cooked.

Bonus:

This feature also makes it easier to control the temperature, reducing the risk of burning or overcooking.

6. No Flare-Ups or Burns

Traditional grill grates can cause flare-ups when fats and juices drip into the flames, which can result in burnt or unevenly cooked food. A flat griddle eliminates this issue, keeping your food cooking steadily without direct exposure to the fire.

Advantage:

The Arteflame cooktop allows food to sizzle in its own juices, enhancing flavor while avoiding the bitterness of burnt edges.

7. Easy Cleanup

Cleaning a griddle is a breeze compared to cleaning traditional grill grates. The smooth surface means food doesn’t get stuck, and grease collects in a manageable area for easy disposal.

Quick Tip:

After cooking, scrape the surface with a spatula and wipe it down with a damp cloth for quick maintenance.

8. Durable and Long-Lasting

Flat steel cooktops like the one from Arteflame grill are built to last because they are made of solid steel, not cast iron. Therefore they can withstand extreme temperatures and resist warping, making them a reliable accessory for years of grilling. The solid steel Arteflame griddle inserts will never crack or break like cast iron.

Why Arteflame:

100% Made in the USA, Arteflame’s griddle is made from American high-quality solid steel, ensuring durability and consistent performance over countless grilling sessions.
