What could be better than griddling at home in the backyard? Well, taking your griddle on the road of course! The Camp Chef Portable Flat Top Grill makes this really easy due to it’s conveniently compact size. Plus, you can cook virtually anything.
Tabletop Griddle – Better than a Camping Barbecue?
I’m showing you the 2-burner model above because it provides significantly more cooking area than the single-burner version without taking up lots more space while traveling. Plus, the cost isn’t much different. In other words, the VersaTop 2X offers a better value if you plan on cooking for more than 2 people.
Like other Camp Chef grills, the steel griddle plate comes pre-seasoned with a non-stick finish. Essentially, you’re getting a tabletop version of their Flat Top Grill 600, in an easier-to-carry size.
Note: You can fuel your cooktop with a 1-lb propane bottle, and press the matchless ignition button to start. Whether you’re cooking on a picnic bench, your truck bed or a folding table, outdoor cooking can’t get much easier.
Plus, the attached grease cup makes clean up easier. Not to mention, it helps to divert excess fat away from your food (if you want).

Check out how the Camp Chef portable flat top grill works on the road. The video below gives you all sorts of ideas for cooking, plus you can see the pizza oven box and grilling accessory (more information below).
The Easy Way to Carry Your Portable Griddle:
If you’re taking your griddle on the road, it makes sense to have somewhere to pack it. Camp Chef makes a carrying case designed specifically for this reason, and it only costs $25
You can keep dirt and debris off of your grill, plus you can prevent your greasy griddle plate from touching your other gear. Furthermore, this heavy-duty case is weather resistant for extra durability.
Not to mention, the built-in handles make it super easy to transport your griddle without needing 2 hands.
How to Bake a Pizza on Your Flat Top Grill:
By the way, if you have the single-burner model of this portable griddle, you can get some pretty cool accessories. For example, you can bake pizzas and do traditional grilling with the artisan pizza oven.
This bundle instantly transforms your Versatop into an infrared grill, so you have more cooking options while traveling. In addition, the “oven” comes with a ceramic pizza stone to give you that wood-fired pizza taste. (Or, you can get the Pizza Oven Box by itself.)
However, keep in mind that this accessory only fits the 14-inch single burner version (not the dual burner flat grill). This ensures even cooking temperatures, plus you can adjust the lid vent if needed.
Note: This may be the best portable grill griddle combo if you want something ultra-compact. However, if you want built-in table legs and more cooking area, you may prefer the Blackstone Tailgater. The portable Blackstone comes with a folding stand, a large dual cooktop and grill lid.
