- In this video I show you how to make an outdoor griddle. I posted this on my other channel but I thought I would post it on my main channel as well.
This griddle is completely made from stainless steel except the cooktop which is made from a piece of 1/4" mild steel plate.
This is the type of welder I used: amzn.to/2Qk4bpx

Fantastic build. Just watching this encourages me to build everything for my concessions trailer.
First metal working video I've seen that transitions into a cooking video! I'll be using this video when I weld up my own griddle, thanks for sharing your ideas!
I love it,this is the video I was looking for. You Sir are a genius.
I would like to thank you for this very talented build on a homemade gas grill it looks better than the ones you can buy out there now thanks for the motivation thanks for the knowledge this is what makes America great. Thank you mr. Andrew thank you
Good job man!!! You have good metal fab skills and good patience as well.
Great video. Just the information and motivation I needed to make one for the patio.
really nice man great build i really like that you did amazing thumbs up forsure
this griddle is great. the one i really wanna make. thanks for sharing this video!
Dude you are rocking the home build!.. Thanks for sharing...
Quality job. Much talent
So sweet. Nice Build!
Watching these videos gives me the idea. Instead of buying super expensive cook appliances I can build my own with sheet stainless and tubes. And one thing I've found seasons a steel pan or griddle is coffee beans. Roast some on it and you'll end up with a dynamite non-stick sear. I did it on my carbon steel wok and finally after trying so many times with peanut and canola the pan is now non-stick. Thanks!
Interesting- ill have to try the coffee beans
Yeah - they're great when they're fresh roasted and ground.
Man this is beautiful, I have most of the stainless steel materials, I will have to try this out!!
Andrew W you are just super
fantastic
damn solid biuld. impressive as hell!
Awesome video man.
Dude... I need you to make me a custom griddle like that!!! Awesome! Love that crust on the burgers! OMG!!! #Drooling
Muy buen trabajo felicidades 👍
Great project
Great job! Think it looks fine with pipes showing.
Gyoza/pot stickers, I never thought to make them on a flat top. I like it.
Very nice project my friend, you did awsome job!!! Thank you for sharing your ideas, ooh very good explained and video. I'll be trying these burners on a grill... Big thank you!! From Washington state...
Fantastic...I like it...
Cool nice work
So cool!!
Man I like that... Something I would buy!!! JD
nice work.. thanks ..👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Good job!
I love how the music changes
Awesome project! You're going to make me build one of these and a wok station too. Been thinking about doing it but your videos might have just pushed me over the edge lol.
Quick question about leveling the grill. Your's looks really level judging by the way the egg spread on the grill. Doesn't look like you have any issues with pooling of the oil either. Did you make sure it sat level before you started cooking or did you just set it up and run it? Also what are you using to catch the oil when it drips from the trough?
You're damn good at building these. I'd highly recommend getting yourself a TIG welder. DC only TIGs aren't that expensive and it will really take these builds to the next level.
Thanks for the videos
I enjoyed watching this video. If there is any room for improvement, I suggest adding main valve before the three valves, so the three can be open first, then the electronic ignition is used only once to light up the 3 burners. without sacrificing the individual control of each burner.
Well done
excellent!!
Awesome!!
Nice job....
Nice sear on the burgers. Well done build wish you’d build one for me.
Your future is bright!!!
Love it
Amazing, and I like how you walked us through everything you where doing
If you don't mind me asking , how much did that cost to build?
Amazing work that you do the very thorough I was curious as to roughly how much one of those cost you to build cuz I was in the market in the spring for one for out at my lake house I am now a subscriber thank you
Nice one!
Sweet!
Great video,thank you for it. How much did it cost for all the materials needed for the build
this is bad ass
Awesome work!
May I ask what your decision proces is on determining tapping versus bolting?
Thanks in advance, thanks for sharing.
I’m totally building one of these
Nice jobbbb
Nice job
Bom proof BBQ, great job
I like it
Thanks for sharing your awesome project. Did you have any warping issue with your griddle from the heat?
Excelent!!! Thank you from México amigo... Like and suscribe👍👍
awesome
I like your video very interesting
Very nicely done. Now get yourself a metal bending brake and you can bend your metal around the corners instead of having to weld flat sections to form the corners. Nice job.
I'd like to see you build a grill, lid, drip catch, and burner covers. Then you'd have a nice BBQ as well.
Nice one
Nice 👍
Well done. Do you get any warping of the griddle surface?
I would like to see you make a indoor propane heater that had a flue pipe to keep out ccarbon monoxide .build from an LP tank that can be used in a room or RV.
Love your design, just a question Do your burners give the same distribution of heat. Cos my burner gives more heat at the end side and very little heat at the inlet side. How can I improve it so that the heat of the burner is the same for the length of the burner. Many thanks
Fantastic job! I wish I had access to a steel yard with stainless steel. Pretty expensive buying it on the internet.
Just get regular mild steel and paint it with high temperature black paint.
perfect.
Great
I have been researching building one of these similar. I like yours and have all the tools necessary to make but my question is why use mild or cold steel for the cooktop instead of Stainless steel? Cost? does it matter?
Built for your generation to come.
Great video done right. What was the cost of materials?
BTW. You inspired me to build 1. I will get the plate bent for the edges and put a bottom under the burners so to capture some reflective heat.
Great work Drew..On the middle burner, I see you have holes on the reducer and not on the others, Why?
Andrew Kiggundu
I watched his burner making video before this, he drilled those on the reducer to attempt better airflow (oxygen induction) during testing stages and it didn't seem to further improve anything so I think he just decided to not drill the others, from what I gathered in that previous video. He went on to explain different sizes holes and propane ratios etc
Sir thank you for your both video ,very useful ,my question which type of welding can use Mig welding or Tig welding ,which brand and size of welding it's suitable to do home work job even for car ,,thank you
what he is using is a mig/gas welder probably mig/aron or mig/carbon dioxide. This is doable at home but tanks are hard to move. There is another kind of mig welding called mig flux core welding which does not need gas. This is your better option. This option does not require tanks and flux core welders are cheap to purchase and can be bought at home depot. Lowes. or even harbor freight
Cool
Great build!! It's been a while, but did you have any issues with warping of the metal? Did you reinforced the base plate?
Great job, thats my next project. Hope you can help if i need some help or have questions
Nice grill good job,did a great job explaining the process
👌!
man you inspire me good job
thumbs up, skimmed through this .. will go back for reference. nice work... inspiring..
Please what is the tickness of the actual grilled steel and is it non stick
Awesome ! Like the music to.
Nice job! If you build another one or anybody replicating this, you might let the sides of the griddle hang over the surface by about 1/4 inch and then weld everything together from the bottom.
والله رووووووعة
I ha ea question. I ha e never messed with changing anything over to lp. I have a wolf 48" griddle. They won't sell me a conversion kit for it to make it lp fr natural gas. To me I don't see why I can't just remove the gas valve and I stall something like this. I am not sure how to figure out propane valve size . I don't know about adding more burners in a row without a certain valve type. Any help would be appreciated I would like to not blow anything up which is why I ha ENT just guessed at it..
Hello
I hope you are well
just a question is what is the same principle for city gas
sorry for my english I am a francophone I have translation with google
thanks friends
👍🏿 👍🏿 👍🏿
why does the reducer on the middle burner have all the holes drilled around it?
If you watch his other video on making the burner he was experimenting trying to get the flame to burn blue. Drilling the holes in the reducer to let more air in had little effect. Changing the size of the hole in the gas tube nipple to 1.2mm I believe was the trick. He just left it that way probably because he did not have another one. He did say that depending on the size and length of the tube and the way you cut the slits that 1.2mm may or may not work for your application you will just have to experiment with several. 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 etc ... BTW Yes I am building one of these.
What kind of mig wire are you using to weld that?
It looked like ER70S which is just regular wire for welding mild steel. It can be welded on stainless just fine but the weld will rust just like mild steel would.
Would've been better off with 309 stainless wire.
Just wondering why you use Brass Pipes and Fittings. And not do all Stainless?
brass don't spark
how much just for steel arms and plate
I'm sorry the drill bit what size is
So how thick was the mild steel?
he said it was 1/4 inch
What did the materials and parts cost
Sure
Impressive build. Just wouldn't pass Australian standards 😁😁
Tattooed 1104 As in not big enough? I’m not Australian, I’m just genuinely curious.
you are super andrew
Do you sell the unit?
How thick is your griddle plate?
1/4"
Using plain water and any metal drill bit will drill stainless steel better than anything you have tried.... just a little pointer for future reference 😉
Approximate BTU rating?
How much would you charge to make one to the public?
you can buy one new for under 200

I dont know how much this guy would charge but my estimation would be 300 us dollars I know I could build one for that even better than what is shown
very nicely done. But one would have to have an extensive knowledge of welding and machining to build it. Those tools are not I dare say in the standard home owners inventory.
The tools he used to builds this are very affordable. The "standard home owner" now days might get lucky and have a hammer and a couple screw drivers. However the typical DIY Guy or Gal more than likely has all the tools he used on this project. The welder might be the only exception. However a super affordable welders on the market that would make quick work of this project.
Sir i want to join your workshop .... Please
How much money was it to make because in Canada stainless steal is not cheap
I would say at least a few hundred bucks. But you can find scrap pieces for cheap since its a small build.
Angle Bars for legs and frame maybe $30
Wheels- $20 for set of 4
Stainless Sheet - Maybe $100-$200
1/4" Plate 36x30 - Maybe $60 -80
Orifice, pipes and burners maybe $50 - $75
Just buy a black stone - far easier and cost about the same
Great project and video............until you smashed all the juice(flavor) out of the hamburger LOL
What is mill scale?
mill scale is iron oxide, it's a layer that forms on the steel in the hot rolling process, kind of like baked on rust.
mill scale is a coating that the steel mil puts on metal so it does not oxidize in transit tp metal working shop
Duane Freeman 😂😂😂 no it’s not.
