EasiBBQ Full-Size Griddle Insert for 22" Charcoal Grills — Fits Weber 22.5" Kettles, Flat-Top with Handles

The EasiBBQ full-size griddle insert transforms 22" charcoal kettles into a flat-top cooking station for pancakes, stir-fries, seared steaks and easy clean-up.

Designed specifically to fit 22.5" round charcoal grills such as Weber Original Kettle, Master-Touch, Performer Deluxe and many compatible models, this flat top griddle sits directly above the fire for faster, more even heating than grate-top pans. Built for backyard cooks who want a versatile surface without permanent modification, the insert includes sturdy handles and heat-resistant silicone mitts so you can change fuel or flip cooking modes safely and quickly.

How does the griddle change what I can cook on my Weber 22" kettle?

Replacing the grill grate with a smooth flat top opens up foods that are difficult on open grates: eggs, vegetables, sauces, and small seafood. Because the plate is close to the coals it reaches searing temperatures more efficiently while providing even contact for consistent browning.

• Perfect for breakfast—pancakes, bacon, and eggs without falling through grates
• Great for stir-fries and sautéed vegetables with better heat control
• Ideal for searing burgers and steaks for uniform crust development
• Sauces and liquids stay on the surface for pan-fried dishes

Will this insert fit my Weber or other 22" round charcoal grill?

The EasiBBQ insert is made to match the dimensions of 22.5" kettles and is compatible with many Weber models including Original Kettle, Performer, Master-Touch and several Premium or Deluxe variants. It also works as a replacement for part styles like Weber 8835 and fits similarly sized third-party 22" charcoal grills.

• Specifically sized for 22.5" round charcoal kettles
• Compatible with Weber Original Kettle, Master-Touch, Performer lines
• Works as a replacement part comparable to Weber 8835
• Likely fits other brands with the same 22" diameter cooking ring

How do I handle, clean, and maintain the griddle safely?

The griddle includes built-in handles so you can add charcoal or switch grill modes without awkward lifting. Use the included silicone oven mitts rated to withstand temperatures up to 446°F (230°C) to remove or reposition the insert; handwashing with mild soap and nonabrasive tools preserves the surface and its nonstick qualities.

• Handles allow safe repositioning and fuel access while cooking
• Silicone mitts protect hands during swapping and temperature checks
• Dishwasher safe, but handwashing with soft sponge extends surface life
• Avoid metal utensils; use silicone, nylon, or wooden tools

What cooking temperatures and performance can I expect?

Set close to the coals, the flat-top heats quickly and maintains steady contact for efficient searing and even cooking. The manufacturer recommends safe handling up to 500°F for the griddle itself; use the supplied mitts when swapping and avoid sudden temperature shocks to prolong the finish.

• Closes proximity to coals yields faster heat-up times
• Suitable for high-heat searing and moderate pan-cooking
• Recommended safe handling and mitt protection up to 446°F
• Designed to be used with appropriate utensils and gentle cleaning

Who is this for? Backyard cooks who use 22" charcoal kettles and want a multi-purpose flat-top without modifying the grill will appreciate this EasiBBQ insert. It’s ideal for families who cook breakfasts, street-style dishes, or restaurant-style seared foods at home, and for grill owners who need a quick, removable solution that fits common Weber models and similar 22" kettles.
