When you buy an electric griddle, you want the cooking surface to heat quickly and evenly, to have lots and lots of room, and to clean up in a flash. According to Cook’s Illustrated, the top two griddles that fit these criteria are the BroilKing Professional Griddle and the West Bend Cool-Touch Griddle. Both are non-stick: the major difference is size and price. The BroilKing is larger, with a removable backsplash and a higher pricetag. The West Bend has a grease channel and is smaller, but is about half the price. You’ll have to decide what the deciding factor is based on the way you cook.

I am looking for a pancake griddle that isn’t “non stick” I have birds and can’t use anything “non stick”…Thank you
Hmmmm…all the griddles reviewed by Cook’s Illustrated are non-stick. What is the issue with birds and non-stick surfaces, Roberta? Is it something with the fumes?
