The renowned brand Traeger has introduced flattop grilling options with the Irontop series. A two-burner and four-burner griddle allow you to cook any meal you can think of easily, quickly, and consistently.



I have a four-burner Blackstone flattop and I absolutely love it. I use it to grill breakfast, homemade Habachi — just did this weekend actually — burgers, dogs, chicken, steak, you name it. Why the hell would I be mentioning Blackstone in a post about Traeger? Simple, Traeger just introduced the Irontop series a comparable flattop grilling setup. We’re talking edge-to-edge heat, durable construction, precision cooking controls, and innovative engineering that the brand is well-known for.

With a flattop grilling setup you can cook virtually any type of meal, any time of the day, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. A food safe coating makes it easy to cook, with simple seasoning, and it’s easier to clean up when you’re all done. Integrated wind guards keep the heat in a collective area to make sure the food cooks faster and stop pesky wind gusts from ruining your session. There are two options available, a two-burner with 504 square-feet of cooking space, and a four-burner with 648 square-feet of cooking space. Personally, I’m not ready to trade in my Blackstone just yet but for anyone that doesn’t have something like it — this is the one chief.

What else should you know about the Irontop Flattop grilling series?

A griddle is for flattop grilling, think a Habachi-style grill like you see at Kobe and other places, but in a more manageable format. This one is gas (propane) powered, so you just hook up your tank like you would a normal grill and off you go. Built in shelves give you space to stow some of your goods, including side prep trays and a bottom shelf for whatever you need to stow.

A rust-resistant food-safe griddle coating keeps the top fresh and clean. A cover seals it all up when you’re done. It also locks in heat and blocks out wind. If you care, the four-burner hits 48K BTUs with all burners on high, meanwhile the two-burner maxes out at 36K BTUs with all burners on high. Both models come with a three-year limited manufacturer’s warranty and there are plenty of accessories to choose from. An all-weather cover is a good starting point, for example.

Either way, the Irontop series is both a more accessible way to get a flattop grilling setup going from the brand than some of its premium offerings. At the same time, it’s just a great choice to have one of these handy. When the power is out at my house I always default to cooking everything on my Blackstone. Whoops, there it is again. Point is, I know an Irontop would be the same experience for everyone else.
