How we compiled this
Roster covers 14 outdoor flat-top gas griddle models spanning entry-level tabletops through premium freestanding units from Blackstone, Weber, Camp Chef, Pit Boss, Royal Gourmet, Nexgrill, LoCo Cookers, and Halo. Sources are official manufacturer product pages (blackstoneproducts.com, weber.com, campchef.com, pitboss-grills.com, royalgourmetusa.com, nexgrill.com, halocooks.com/atbbq.com, lococookers.com) plus major retailers (Walmart, Amazon, Home Depot, BBQGuys, Lowe's, Bass Pro, Sportsman's). prices are the lowest published US MSRP or list/sale price found on a manufacturer or major-retail page at access time; where the manufacturer site was offline (LoCo) or the SKU varies by retailer (Nexgrill 720-1058A), the corroborating retailer listing for the EXACT named SKU was used. cooking_area_sqin is primary griddle surface only; side_shelves is a boolean (true = at least one folding or fixed prep shelf; a swing-away warming rack alone = false); cooktop_material uses the manufacturer's own description; accessedAt 2026-06-19. Adversarial pass corrected the Royal Gourmet price (no support for $269.99; official current price is $319.99), corrected Halo Elite4B fuel from dual_fuel to propane (the natural-gas conversion kit HZ-3001-B ships separately, the unit ships propane), repointed the Nexgrill source to the verified 720-1058A listing (the brand 'with lid' page is a different 38,000 BTU / 532 sqin variant), repointed the Camp Chef FTG600 source from a promo 'no grill grates' SKU to the standard FTG600 listing, and fixed the Blackstone 36 cooking area from 769 to the official 768 sqin.
