Troubleshooting

Food is sticking to the surface

Ensure the hotplate is cleaned properly between uses and verify you are using a light coating of oil if necessary. Avoid using metal utensils that may have damaged the non-stick coating.

Uneven cooking

Ensure the BBQ unit itself is on level ground and the hotplate is seated correctly in the frame. Pre-heat the unit for 3-5 minutes before adding food to ensure the entire surface is up to temperature.

Pros and Cons

Sturdy yet lightweight construction

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup is straightforward: simply place the hotplate directly onto the RidgeMonkey Grilla BBQ frame, ensuring the ergonomic handles are aligned for safe handling. This product is custom-designed specifically for the RidgeMonkey Grilla BBQ (RM418) and is not intended for use with other stove or grill models.

Care instructions are vital to preserve the longevity of the fluoropolymer coating. Always use wooden or silicone utensils to avoid scratching the surface. After cooking, allow the unit to cool completely before cleaning. Use warm soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge; avoid harsh scouring pads or metal scrapers, as these will damage the non-stick properties.
