Recipe Idea: "Cilantro Pepper Corncakes"

This is a fun and very simple recipe, and the results are extremely tasty.  These corncakes are the perfect light lunch, or they make an excellent side dish to a larger meal - they would be amazing next to some chile-braised short ribs.  The recipe was written for a cool blog called Pardon the Dog Hair, and there are a lot of recipes on this site that look like they would adapt really well to the griddle.  Even serious griddlers cook a few things in the house though, so you should visit and try all of them. The complexity of flavors in this recipe were a surprise - the corn, serrano pepper, cilantro and garlic all come through, and you...

Recipe Idea: Reuben Sandwiches (And Gluten-Free Veggie Reubens!)

In this case, special refers to something truly easy, and very tasty - a riff on the classic Reuben sandwich.  This sandwich, usually found grilled in delis, lends itself very well to the griddle, and comes together in no time.  Usually though, the deli Reuben is heavy and greasy, so we're out to create one that you can enjoy without regretting it later. To start this party,...

Recipe Idea: "sausage cabbage fry"

We saw this fabulous sausage and cabbage recipe on Nigel Slater's excellent blog, and we think it would be ideal to be adapted to the outdoor griddle. Simple, high quality ingredients abound, and the cabbage is such a nice counter to the richness of the meat. We'll try this out soon, and if you happen to give it a shot send us an email and we'll post your picture.  Have a great weekend everyone!

Little Griddle at the HPBA Show

This past week Little Griddle was truly privileged to exhibit at the 2013 Hearth, Patio and Barbecue Association show in beautiful (and warm) Orlando, Florida. We were on a mission to re-launch our brand, because it had been a while since there was a significant update to Little Griddle's packaging, artwork and product line. Here's a quick run-down of what we're working on: 1. New Logo: we think this is pretty awesome. You saw it here when we launched the new website last week, but this was our first public exhibition. Our customers really seemed to like it, and we couldn't be more happy about that. Ir really is the cornerstone of our rebranding effort. 2. New packaging: Our new...
