Summerset GP-14 14" × 17.5" Stainless Steel Griddle Plate
Turn Any Summerset Grill Into a Full Flat-Top — No Second Cooker Required
Heavy-duty #304 stainless steel that drops right over your cooking grates, so eggs, smash burgers, stir-fries, and delicate seafood never slip through again.
The Summerset GP-14 Stainless Steel Griddle Plate is a 14" x 17.5" flat-top griddle insert built to expand what your Summerset grill can do. Crafted from commercial-grade #304 stainless steel with an integrated grease trap and built-in carrying handles, this drop-in griddle plate gives you a clean, sear-ready cooking surface for everything from sunrise breakfasts to weeknight hibachi — without dedicating an entire grill to flat-top cooking.
Why You'll Reach for the GP-14 Every Cook
One stainless plate unlocks a whole second style of cooking on the grill you already own.
Built to Take the Heat
Heavy-duty commercial-grade #304 stainless steel holds heat and shrugs off the weather, so it cooks steady season after season instead of warping or rusting out.
Breakfast, Smash Burgers, Stir-Fry
A full flat-top section means eggs, pancakes, chopped veggies, and seafood get a solid surface to cook on — no more losing dinner to the gaps between the grates.
Cleaner Cooks, Easier Cleanup
An integrated grease trough channels drippings away while raised edges keep food on the plate — then it lifts out and washes up in the sink when you're done.
Fits Every Summerset Grill
An increased flange depth seats the plate cleanly over your Summerset cooking grates. Designed specifically for Summerset grills, it sets up in seconds with no tools or permanent install.
Season It Once, Cook on It for Years
Like any quality steel griddle, a quick seasoning builds a naturally non-stick surface that only gets better with use. A simple first-time routine:
- Set the griddle over your Summerset cooking grates and heat on medium to medium-high for about 5 minutes — avoid starting on high.
- Apply a thin, even layer of a high-smoke-point oil across the surface.
- Let the oil cook in for several minutes until it darkens, then wipe and repeat for a deeper, more non-stick finish.
- After cooking, let it cool, wash with mild soap and water, dry fully, and wipe with a light coat of oil before storing.

- Summerset grill owners who want flat-top versatility without buying a separate griddle.
- Weekend breakfast cooks making bacon, eggs, hash browns, and pancakes for the whole patio.

- Anyone cooking delicate foods — fish, shrimp, and finely chopped vegetables that would fall through standard grates.
- Outdoor kitchen builders rounding out a Summerset setup with a quick-swap cooking surface.

Summerset GP-14 Griddle Plate — Frequently Asked Questions
Which grills does the GP-14 fit?
It's designed to fit all Summerset grills, across their styles and models. It is built specifically for Summerset grills and is not intended for use with other brands.
How does it install?
There's no permanent install. The plate is a drop-in design that seats over your Summerset cooking grates, with an increased flange depth that helps it sit cleanly and securely. Set it in place and you're ready to cook; lift it out when you want open grates back.
What can I cook on it?
Anything that benefits from a solid flat surface — eggs, bacon, pancakes, hash browns, smash burgers, hibachi-style stir-fries, fish, shrimp, and finely chopped vegetables that would otherwise fall through the grates.
What is it made of?
Commercial-grade #304 stainless steel, chosen for strong heat retention, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability outdoors.
How big is the cooking surface?
The plate has a nominal 14" x 17.5" flat-top footprint, covering a section of your grill's grates so you can run the griddle and open-grate cooking side by side.
Does it manage grease?
Yes. An integrated grease trough channels drippings away from your food, and raised edges help keep ingredients on the plate. Built-in carrying handles make it easy to move and empty.
Do I need to season it before the first use?
Yes — seasoning builds a naturally non-stick surface. Heat the griddle on medium to medium-high for about 5 minutes (don't start on high), apply a thin layer of high-smoke-point oil, and let it cook in. Repeat a few times for a deeper finish.
Are there any usage cautions?
A few from the manufacturer: don't close the hood while cooking on the griddle and don't preheat it with the hood down, and don't place the griddle directly over a sear burner. Following these helps protect both the plate and your grill.
How do I clean it?
Once it's cooled, lift the plate out and wash it in the sink with mild soap and water, then dry it fully. A light wipe of oil before storing helps preserve the seasoned surface.
How much does it weigh?
It's a substantial stainless plate with built-in carrying handles for easy lifting. Listed weights vary by source — please see the Dimensions & Weight table above and confirm the exact figure before publishing.
What warranty does it carry?
It's covered by Summerset's Gold Standard Lifetime Warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, honored directly by Summerset. Labor is not included, and registration may be required — see Summerset's warranty documentation for full terms.
What are the shipping and return options?
Deck & Den offers free shipping on orders over $100 within the contiguous 48 states, 45-day returns, and a price match against authorized sellers.
