Even in a dry climate, a griddle caked with food debris can rust fairly quickly. One thing to note is that the two gas knobs heat up the left and right sides separately. I think the EVO heats up the inside ring and the outside ring (I could be wrong though but that’s what it looks like from the pictures I’ve seen). I actually prefer the left/right setup, since you can easily cook at two different temps on each side.
I found the temperature to be relatively consistent at about 500F with some areas near the edges and directly over the flame of the burner registering as high as 517F. Getting a hard sear on a burger or steak should not be a problem on this griddle. I ended up seasoning this griddle five times in total before cooking on it. The entire process took a little over an hour to complete.
The griddle is very heavy because the griddle plate is very thick. Once it’s put together the griddle is very sturdy. I cooked Chinese food on my griddle and it was amazing. With this griddle I no longer cuisinart pots and pans set have to go anywhere for Chinese food I can just cook it myself. There is a lot of space on the griddle to cook different foods as well. It also has to grease catcher, that are really convenient.
If flames are sll low, turn off knobs and LP cylinder valve. Turn on LP cylinder valve slowly, wait 30 seconds and then light griddle. Ensure the griddle is cool before cleaning and conducng maintenance and with the gas supply turned off at the LP-Gas Cylinder.

The steam from the water on the hot surface will help release tough debris. While it cools you’ll want to remove and clean out the grease cup. Doing this each time will ensure you have no spill over cuisinart pots and pans set the next time. You’ll want a grill that provides the same level of heat on every square inch of the surface to ensure you don’t have to spend your time moving food around to make sure it cooks.
