Got a new Lodge griddle a few weeks ago and I finally took it for a test drive this morning. I was worried about how it would work on a glass top but, so far so good!

Does it heat up evenly?
Seemed to but, I let it preheat like 20 minutes total while I was trying to find the right temp on the burners.
Is the stove induction?
No, just a regular old glass top electric.
What’s the strategy for burners? Turn both on medium and let it heat up?
Also does the heat impact the glass top that isn’t just the burner?
Yeah, I used medium on both and let it preheat a good while. I wasn’t sure what temp I wanted so let it set at medium low for 10-15 minutes before deciding that wasn’t high enough and turning up the burners.
Didn’t seem to affect the rest of the range anymore than having three burners (I had a pan of eggs going too) with three individual pans would have. Took forever for the griddle to cool off enough to pull it off the stove though. I would guess that’d be the case with any heat source, that’s a lot of iron to cool.
I’ve been rocking one of these for years on an induction cooktop. So many pancakes, it’s fantastic.
Wow, on a glass top, now im intrigued!
I wouldn’t trust myself to drop the slab on it softly enough not to crack the glass.
Yeah, it was a little nerve racking setting it on there the first time.
Nice slab. Looks like you could leave it outside for a decade, brush off the rust, season and go back to making pancakes.
That’s kind of the appeal. I got tired of buying electric griddles every few years.
Love a good hot cake.
