Blackstone Silicone Griddle Mat & Cover 28in - Heavy Duty Protection

Our review of the Blackstone Silicone Griddle Mat & Cover finds it best for outdoor cooks who want a low-maintenance way to protect a 28in griddle top between uses. The standout reason to buy is the combination of a non-slip polished bottom and food-grade silicone construction, which keeps the mat in place on compatible Blackstone 28in models while protecting the cooking surface from debris and weather. It is not a cloth cover substitute for full weather sealing, but for everyday protection and easy cleaning it earns a solid recommendation.

Key Features

• Non-slip Bottom: An upgraded polished bottom surface adheres to the griddle to reduce sliding and wobbling during use and storage.
• Perfect Fit: Sized to fit common Blackstone 28in models so no trimming is required; just lay it on the griddle for immediate coverage.
• Food-Grade Silicone: Made from 100 percent food-grade silicone that is foldable and durable for outdoor conditions and easy storage.
• Easy to Clean: A textured surface resists dust and grime so the mat wipes clean with soap and water, simplifying post-season upkeep.
• All-Season Protection: Designed to shield the cooking surface from bugs, debris, and the elements so the griddle stays ready for the next cookout.

Who It's For

This mat is ideal for owners of compatible Blackstone 28in griddles who want a quick, removable barrier that prevents bugs and small debris from settling on the flat top. Backyard cooks who clean immediately after use will appreciate the easy-to-wipe surface and the foldable design for compact storage.

It is less suited to someone who needs a full, waterproof cover for long-term off-season storage or who expects heavy rain protection and tight weather sealing. If your priority is full environmental sealing or keyed locking covers, look to heavier rigid or fabric covers designed specifically for long-term outdoor storage.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Fits Blackstone 28in models without trimming, providing complete cooking-surface coverage.

• Upgraded non-slip bottom reduces sliding so the mat stays put on the griddle top.

Cons

• The mat provides surface protection but is not a heavy-duty weatherproof replacement for a full external grill cover.
• Some users report long-term exposure issues on metal nearby, so occasional inspection is recommended.
