I'm gonna be wanting one of these now .

Don't worry, Steve H will soon shove you off the cliff.

Great looking griddle and first cook!! Check out Todd Toven and CJ's First Cooking Show on YouTube for some good tips and recipes for griddles. CJ has a pizza slider on Kings Hawaiian rolls that I am gonna try once the weather clears.

Enjoy your new toy.

I've seen a video or two about this new Weber flat top, and looks like a solid unit. Don't you just love the feeling you get when you get a new cooker.

Nice cook and Happy Birthday!

Wow, that looks really nice!! I bought the Blackstone 22” for when we go camping but may look into this for the house!

Not too take anything away from the Weber and I have no idea what it goes for buttt.... Walmart still is selling the Blackstone 36" with hard cover for $279. That is a steal for a great, solid unit.

Robot or human?

I did look at both units and chose the Weber. Cost is just one aspect. I would suggest you do your own research. I am not saying anything bad about Blackstone griddles, but I would not support running to Walmart, for anything….

Not disagreeing with you, I have both a camp chef griddle and a Blackstone and the Blackstone wins hands down. When I purchased either of them the Weber griddle was not even a rumor. If looking today it certainly would be in the mix of options.

Yeah, me too! And the food you cooked "is the bomb", as Guy Fieri would say.

Awesome gift... and the first meal looks incredible...

bacon is the best way to season a flat top

Sorry Chopsaw... but this is not true... You DO NOT want to season a new/refurbished griddle (or anything else) with bacon... The salt and cure in bacon is not good for a seasoning....
Always use oil/fat for the initial seasoning of a griddle...

The first minute or so of this video will explain

I used bacon on my flat top and all my cast iron . Works great for me .
That's why my full statement that you only quoted part of said ,

My opinion , bacon is the best way to season a flat top
