Hasty Bake Stainless Griddle | Fits Fiesta/Hastings/Legacy/Gourmet

Great little griddle

Oiled the inside of the 357 Pro to do an initial burn-in to clean/season the grill. Cooked some chicken to learn about temperature control. Then, after a couple of minor adjustments to the hood, set the grill up for low and slow and smoked some ribs. Temperature held steady at 225F for 4 hours, never varying more than 10 degrees up or down from target temperature. There was plenty of charcoal left at the end of the cook. Also, the outside temperature was 17F, so the 357 Pro is very efficient for a metal grill. I am very pleased with the initial results.

My initial impression is that I'm diappointed by the quality of the griddle surface. It looks nothing like the griddle pictured on your website. The weld marks on the griddle I recieved are slightly raised and as such the surface is not entirely flat/smooth. I purchased a stainless steel griddle for a different grill and it's surface was flawless. My husband has been saving for a Hasty Bake and he is now rethinking that purchase. I purchased this as a gift for my son-in-law, so I'll wait to see his reaction before deciding if it should be returned.

This griddle is really well made and really does the job. Getting it seasoned now.... looking forward to a lifelong relationship with this griddle.

Made my first ribs ever. This oven is amazing and delivers the hell out of deliciously smoked and grilled meats - this review is about the 357, not the griddle
