Griddle Covers & Carry Bags

Protect your flat-top investment year-round with weatherproof griddle covers and carry bags engineered for every Blackstone model. Rain, snow, pollen, UV, and temperature swings are the silent killers of cold-rolled steel cook surfaces - a properly fitted cover or carry bag blocks all of it, preserves your hard-earned seasoning patina, and easily adds three-plus seasons to your griddle's service life for the price of one good steak dinner.

The lineup covers every Blackstone footprint and travel scenario. The 22" Griddle & Stand Cover ($34.99) and 28" Single Shelf Cover ($34.99) fit entry-level setups. The 28" Griddle Cover ($55) and 36" Griddle Station Cover ($49) are sized for full-height backyard stations with weather-resistant polyester, reinforced seams, ventilation grommets to prevent trapped moisture, and tie-down straps that survive wind gusts. For travel cooks, the 17" Tabletop Carry Bag ($39.99) and 17" Tabletop Backpack ($99.99) turn a portable griddle into true road-trip, tailgate, and campsite gear. The backpack style keeps your hands free for the cooler on the other shoulder.

Pair a cover with the rest of your cook kit. Match your protection to your main cooker in the griddles collection, pizza ovens, or pellet grills and smokers, then finish the setup with accessories and toolkits. For a deeper dive on why outdoor gear care matters, Consumer Reports' grill care guide and AmazingRibs' protection tips both reinforce the cover-every-time habit.

Shield your griddle from the elements and keep travel-ready cookers road-trip ready - shop the complete Blackstone griddle covers and carry bags collection and protect the cook station you love.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I really need a cover for my Blackstone griddle?
Yes - a cover is the single most important accessory for any flat-top griddle. Uncovered cold-rolled steel rusts within weeks when exposed to rain, dew, pollen, and humidity, and UV sun exposure fades hoods, knobs, and side shelves fast. A fitted weather-resistant polyester cover with reinforced seams blocks all of it. Most users see their griddle last 3+ extra seasons with consistent cover use - easily a 10x return on the $35-$55 investment.
How do I pick the right cover size for my griddle?
Match the cover to the griddle's width and setup style. Use the 28" Single Shelf Cover ($34.99) for a 28" griddle with one side shelf, and the 28" Griddle Cover ($55) for full-station 28" setups. The 36" Griddle Station Cover ($49) fits 36" models, and the 22" Griddle & Stand Cover ($34.99) is sized for the 22" stand setup. Always check your griddle's product page for the recommended cover SKU before ordering.
What's the difference between the carry bag and the backpack?
Both are designed for the 17" On the Go Griddle, but the form factor differs. The 17" Tabletop Carry Bag ($39.99) is a classic dual-handle tote with a shoulder strap - ideal for short walks from car to campsite. The 17" Tabletop Backpack ($99.99) adds padded shoulder straps and a chest clip so you can hike to a campsite or lug gear across a crowded tailgate lot hands-free. Both have reinforced stitching and protective interior padding.
Are these covers fully waterproof?
Our covers are water-resistant and weatherproof rather than fully submersible waterproof - they repel heavy rain, snow, and morning dew while allowing small ventilation grommets to breathe and prevent condensation buildup underneath. Trapped moisture is actually worse for steel than open air, so the breathability is intentional. For true long-term storage, wipe the cook surface dry, apply a light coat of seasoning oil, then install the cover over a completely cool griddle.
How do I clean and store a griddle cover?
Most polyester covers can be hand-wiped with warm soapy water and a soft brush to remove pollen, bird droppings, and tree sap. Rinse with a garden hose and air-dry completely before re-installing - never store a damp cover. For winter storage in garages, fold loosely rather than compressing tightly to avoid permanent crease lines. Most covers last 5+ years with basic care. Pair with the right griddle cleaning accessories for a complete care routine.
