A freestanding griddle is a complete outdoor cooking appliance with its own burners and flat cooking surface. A griddle insert is an accessory designed to fit a compatible existing grill, replacing or covering part of its cooking grates. Freestanding griddles are useful for dedicated flat-top cooking, while inserts let you expand the capabilities of equipment you already own.
Stainless steel griddles offer a durable, smooth cooking surface and are generally straightforward to clean and maintain. Cast iron griddles retain heat effectively and are particularly useful for searing and browning. Some cast iron models feature reversible cooking surfaces. The best choice depends on your grill's compatibility, cooking preferences, and willingness to follow the material's maintenance requirements.
Yes. DDR BBQ Supply carries Napoleon griddle inserts for compatible Rogue, Freestyle, TravelQ, and other selected grill models. For example, the Napoleon Stainless Steel Griddle Insert for Rogue and Freestyle 425 Models is designed for those specific series. Other insert sizes and styles are available. Always verify your exact model and accessory part number before purchasing.
For smash burgers, start with a flat cooking surface, a sturdy burger press, and a wide spatula. The press helps flatten the meat for increased surface contact and browning, while the spatula helps release and flip the patties. A melting dome is useful for melting cheese. The Braize Smash Burger Press Kit combines these essential tools.
Clean your griddle according to the manufacturer's instructions after each cooking session. Remove food residue with a suitable scraper, manage excess grease, and wipe down the cooking surface. Some griddle materials require seasoning or protective oil after cleaning, while others have different care requirements. The Napoleon Griddle 4-Piece Cleaning Kit includes tools for routine griddle maintenance.
Consider your available outdoor space, cooking surface size, fuel preferences, and typical meal preparation. A dedicated freestanding griddle provides its own flat-top cooking station, while a compatible insert makes an existing grill more versatile. Also consider the cooking surface material, grease management system, storage needs, and compatible accessories. Compare product specifications to find an option suited to your backyard setup.

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
