This is Field Company’s No.9 round griddle, marked down as a factory second. The flaws are cosmetic — a stray grind mark, a slight variation in the seasoning, something that would never survive their normal inspection line but doesn’t touch how the thing performs on a burner. It’s cast iron, pre-seasoned, ready to go straight into rotation for eggs, smash burgers, tortillas, whatever needs even heat and a flat surface. You’re paying less for the same iron, the same shape, the same weight in your hand. Wipe it down, get it hot, use it like you’d use any griddle that’s earned a spot on the line.

What cooks are saying
  • 01Factory seconds save money without touching cooking performance
  • 02Flat cast iron surface works for high-turnover items like eggs and smashburgers
  • 03Pre-seasoned finish means it's ready for service, not a project
Why the pros use it

A griddle that only has a cosmetic flaw is not a compromise, it's a discount. Cast iron doesn't care about a grind mark or a seasoning inconsistency you'll cook over in the first week anyway. What matters is the mass, the flat surface, and whether it holds heat evenly across the whole pan when you've got four tickets stacked and need consistent color on everything hitting it. This does. It goes on the line like any other griddle and earns its spot the same way — by cooking well, service after service.
