When the weather warms up, the smell of seared meats and smoky barbecue fills the air. Grilling season is upon us, which means it’s time to break out the charcoal grill for some home-cooked eats.
But if your old grill needs some TLC, why not pick up a replacement that offers the best of both worlds: grilling and griddling? That’s exactly what one of our favorite U.S.-based cookware brands promises with the newly released Made In grill.

The Made In grill is compatible with the brand's large collection of grilling pieces, including the best-selling carbon steel griddle.
What is the Made In grill?
While Made In is best known for its well-performing stainless steel cookware, the brand also offers things like carbon steel pans, baking slabs and knife sets. The Made In grill is the brand’s first foray into outdoor cooking.
The grills are made in the U.S. and are compatible with both a carbon steel griddle and the included stainless steel grill grate. This two-in-one tech gives you the option to flip hot dogs on the grill and perfect your smash burgers on the griddle. Plus, the whole thing is compact. This makes it perfect for toting to the tailgate or placing on a small patio—espeically compared to a full-size Weber or Blackstone.
Made In Grill Features
The Made In grill isn’t just any ordinary portable cooker. It comes with tons of features that make on-the-go grilling a summertime mainstay. While it’s designed for charcoal, an adjustable firebed allows for varying heat levels. This makes it compatible with hardwood or other types of charcoal like binchotan.
As robust as it is travel-friendly, the Made In grill comes with silicone-sleeved handles on either side for easy transport. It boasts a modest 19.6-inch by 10.5-inch cooking surface area, so it’s perfect for small groups or batch cooking. Thanks to its lightweight yet hearty carbon steel construction, it’s also incredibly sturdy yet weighs in at only 35 pounds.
Our favorite feature, though, is the retractable grate, which folds flush against the side of the grill to make room for a griddle. Say hello to camping breakfasts of eggs and pancakes—no pots, pans or additional room required!
"We pride ourselves on our material expertise and craftsmanship. Bringing that from cookware to heat source was a natural extension to our performance grilling collection. This piece was designed to deliver the same high quality sears and heat control you would expect from Made In, in a portable size for the chef on the go. Inspired by many backyard grilling days, camping trips and beach excursions with the griddle, we’re so excited for you to experience this at home."
