The perfect cast iron griddle pan for a 22 inch kettle?

captjoe06 · Nov 18, 2015

Most cast iron pans have long handles that make them impractical for use on the kettle. Others are square which is not perfect for the round kettle.
I've recently discovered (thanks to the brethren) smash burgers and how much I love them but my Lodge cast iron skillet with handle takes up most of the real estate on pit.

Does anyone have any alternative suggestions for cast iron griddle like surfaces that fit to one side?

How about something like this...

Or this in SS from Target?

I suppose you could hack off the handle. But you would have the issue of not having a handle of course.

Might consider grill grates as they have sets made for kettles.

Camp Chef 14" pizza pan. I use mine for a heat deflector/placesetter also.

Try the Lodge CRS15 it's not cast iron but Carbon Steel so it shares a lot of characteristics.

We have the same problem when cooking fajitas on the grill. Our solution was to substitute our 14 inch paella pan for the 15 inch Lodge skillet and it worked great. They come in an amazing array of sizes. As pitchingcoach said, "...not cast iron..." so your mileage may vary.

Cast Iron Griddle

I like my Weber 6560 portable griddle...it measures about 13-1/2 X 10-1/8 and is rounded on two sides. I use it on both the 18-1/2 and the 22 " kettle. Amazon still has a few of these left as the manufacture has discontinued them.

How do you propose doing "smash" burgers on these????

A paella pan might work for this, and they come in large sizes. Searching Amazon for "Paella Pans : Cast Iron : 19 to 22.9 Inches" the 2 hits are actually stainless steel though...

I say find a pan you like and hack of handles as needed!

ichbin73 · Nov 19, 2015

I use the Lodge 14" pizza pan and LOVE it. WallyWorld carries it for around $35. It is 14 inches plus two "loop" handles.

STLBBQer · Nov 19, 2015

I have this CI one from Lodge. Fits perfectly.
