OT - My ghetto griddle
Ok, so y'all have been killing me with all of the good food being cooked on a griddle. My problem is I don't need a big honkin' Blackstone - it's just me and my wife. I did want more thermal mass than my little griddle for the stove. Since necessity is the mother of invention, I plopped a piece of plate steel on the fish fryer burner I use for my wok (the steel is seasoned - I used to use it with my gasser).
It worked out to be a solution that "scratched my itch" so to speak. I thought some of you might get a kick out of my work around.
Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...

I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

@Carolina Q No Weber, but I get two zone heat with my setup if I scoot the steel to one side - there's only one burner under the plate. I see that great minds think alike...Coleman, Texas

Necessity is the mother of invention. Well done.

That's not ghetto, that's using what you have. When I was in school, we took a smaller sized (probably 2 foot diameter) disk from bigger tiller and seasoned it up and used it as a wok for tailgate breakfasts. Bests sausage, bacon and egg burritos I've ever had came from that thing.------------------------------------------------------------------------LBGE 2013 - MiniMax 2015 - Seemingly every accessory the fine folks at CGS sell - Fightin' Texas Aggie till I die - Gig 'Em - Located in the bright lights of Dallas

Now that I think about it, I'm wondering about Philly cheesesteak on the plow disk...
