The Weber® SLATE GP 43 cm Premium Griddle is an essential piece of equipment for any grilling enthusiast, offering a superior cooking experience thanks to its advanced design and premium features. Designed to reach high temperatures and maintain even heat, this griddle allows you to prepare a variety of foods with perfect results every time.
Uniform Heat for Consistent Cooking
The Weber® SLATE GP 43 cm Premium stands out for its ability to maintain even heat from side to side, ensuring that all foods cook consistently, no matter where they are placed on the griddle. This is essential for professional results, especially when cooking meats and vegetables that require precise cooking to retain their flavour and texture. In addition, the even heat distribution helps prevent hot and cold spots, which can result in unevenly cooked food. This feature is ideal for those who are looking to perfect their cooking skills and want consistent results every time they cook.
High Temperature for Perfect Sealing
Capable of reaching over 260°C, this griddle is ideal for searing meats with intense heat, achieving crispy, perfectly browned edges. This high temperature is also beneficial for fast cooking, preserving the natural juices and flavours of the food. Perfectly searing meats enhances their presentation and maximises their flavour, offering an unparalleled culinary experience. Reaching such high temperatures also expands the culinary possibilities, allowing a wide variety of foods to be cooked, from thick cuts of meat to delicate seafood, all with exceptional results.
Vitrified and Non-Stick Surface
The cooking surface is made of vitrified cast iron and is completely non-stick, making it easy to prepare food without sticking. This feature also allows for easy and quick cleaning, making the griddle ready for the next use without hassle. The vitrified surface not only improves the durability of the griddle, but also ensures even heat distribution. In addition, the non-stick nature of the surface reduces the need to use large amounts of oil or grease, promoting healthier cooking. This ease of cleaning also means less time spent cleaning and more time enjoying food and company.
Front Access for Grease Disposal
The smart design of the Weber® SLATE GP includes a front grease disposal access, which simplifies and speeds up the cleaning process. This feature is especially useful for keeping the griddle in top condition and prolonging its life. Efficient grease removal prevents residue build-up, keeping the cooking surface clean and ready for the next use. In addition, a well-designed grease management system helps reduce the risk of grease fires, increasing cooking safety. This ease of grease disposal also helps to keep the kitchen and cooking area cleaner and tidier.
Adjustable Legs for Stability on Irregular Surfaces
The griddle is equipped with four adjustable legs that allow it to be levelled on any surface, whether in the garden, at a picnic, or on the kitchen table. This versatility ensures that you can cook safely and efficiently anywhere. The adjustable legs provide stability, preventing the griddle from tipping or sliding during use, ensuring a safer cooking experience. This extra stability is crucial when cooking outdoors, where surfaces can be uneven or unstable. The adjustable legs allow for quick and easy setup, ensuring you always have a level cooking surface, no matter what the environment.
Portability and Versatility
With a compact design and a manageable weight of 19.5 kg, the Weber® SLATE GP is easy to transport, making it the perfect companion for outdoor events. Plus, it runs on liquid propane, allowing for quick ignition and hassle-free operation. Its portability makes it ideal for camping, hiking and any outdoor activity where a quality meal is desired. This ease of transport also means you can effortlessly take the plancha to different locations, from the backyard to the park. Compatibility with liquid propane makes it easy to prepare meals in remote locations where access to electricity may be limited.

Energy Efficiency
The use of liquid propane as a fuel not only makes it easy to light, but also an energy efficient option. This makes the plancha an environmentally friendly and economical option, reducing environmental impact and operating costs. The efficiency of liquid propane means that less fuel is needed to reach and maintain high temperatures, resulting in lower energy consumption.
