Outspark Hinged Lid for Blackstone 28-inch Griddle — Tall Steel Hood with Integrated Thermometer and 600D Cover

The Outspark Hinged Lid is a heavy-duty metal hood with integrated thermometer and a 600D polyester cover, built to protect and improve cooking on Blackstone 28-inch flat-top griddles.

Replace the standard short cover and stop losing heat, flavor, and time when you cook outdoors. This Outspark kit combines a taller, hinged steel lid that mounts to Blackstone 28" models with a weather-resistant fabric cover, giving your 1517/1853/1605/1856 and many other 28" Blackstone griddles extra protection and better temperature control. The hinged design lets you open and close with one hand while the built-in gauge helps you monitor surface conditions without lifting the hood.

How does the hinged lid improve cooking performance?

The taller steel hood traps heat and smoke above the food so the griddle cooks more evenly and holds temperature better. That yields quicker searing, reduced flare-ups, and fewer repeated flips or pressings.

• Integrated temperature gauge for visible heat tracking.
• Taller profile creates a small convection environment for even heat.
• Reduces grease splatter and helps food finish faster.
• Front handle and suitcase-style grip for easy one-handed lift.

Which Blackstone models does this Outspark hood fit?

This lid was designed to mount cleanly to the 28" lineup of Blackstone flat tops and several Adventure Ready and Omnivore 28" models, matching factory dimensions and mounting points. Confirm your model number against the list to ensure compatibility.

• Fits Blackstone 28" flat tops including 1517, 1853, 1605, 1856 and more.
• Compatible with Blackstone Adventure Ready and Omnivore 28" grills.
• Ideal replacement or upgrade for worn or low-profile lids.
• Includes mounting hardware guidance for quick installation.

What materials and durability features does the product offer?

The hinge lid is crafted from heavy-duty metal steel for heat resistance and longevity, while the included griddle cover uses 600D polyester to repel rain and debris. Both parts are built to survive outdoor conditions and daily griddle use.

• Steel hood tolerates grilling temperatures and resists warping.
• 600D polyester cover sheds water, pollen, and dust when stored.
• Rust-resistant finishes extend component life outdoors.
• Wipe-clean surfaces for simple maintenance after use.

How easy is installation and everyday use?

The outspark lid mounts to the griddle and operates with a smooth hinge and ergonomic front handle so you can check food quickly. The cover slips on when the griddle is not in use to shield the cooking surface from weather and debris.

• Front suitcase-style handle for comfortable, secure lifting.
• Hinge mechanism allows one-handed opening and closing.
• Quick-fit polyester cover stores easily and snaps into place.
• Thermometer gives instant feedback without removing the lid.
