Do you use a griddle to make pancakes? I have one and I love it. I think it is by Presto. So far I have made pancakes on it. You can make burgers on it too.
We have a nonstick griddle but we use our nonstick skillet more when we make pancakes or french toast. It's easier and smaller.
I have a wide griddle that covers two stove burners that I often use for pancakes or french toast. You can cook the same amount of food in half the time.
I have both the one that covers both burners and an electric one.....pancakes, French toast, sausage, hamburgers, grilled cheese, eggs, toast, potatoes, onions, tomatoes, bologna and onions, fish, etc.
