Outdoor stove for griddle - how to tame the flame?
I have a few outdoor 2 or 3 burner stoves along with griddles that fit on them, but the head distribution is terrible. I know the real flattops have a more grill-like flame arrangement. Anyone tried to adapt the round burners to use with a griddle top?

I use a lodge griddle over two burners on my kitchen stove. There are certainly hot spots but I just work with them.

I've also got a number out outdoor 1 or 2 burner cookers, ranging from 55,000 BTU banjo burners to 105,000 BTU jet burners. Those put so much heat in one spot that unless you do something like Camp Chef does on the back of their griddles for their 14 and 16 inch stove systems, I am not sure how you would get rid of hot spots. The photos I've seen show welded plates on the bottom side of the Camp Chef griddles, which help distribute and disperse the heat.
I've got a Camp Chef FTG900 griddle, and as you say, it has multiple "strip" style burners rather than round burners, so the flame is already running from front to back. Mine has welded plates to distribute the heat horizontally. This makes the griddle top way 80-90 pounds. It's a beast!
Look at the photo of the bottom side of the Camp Chef stove top griddles:
It has a round welded plate above each burner, that probably helps increase thermal resistance in that spot, and help spread the heat to the rest of the griddle. You won't have that with something like a Lodge cast iron griddle or other stove top griddle that is just a uniform thickness of cast iron or cold rolled steel.

The Sizzle-Q has worked quite well for me. I've used it on BBQs but I mostly use it on a Camp Chef two-burner. I believe there is a kettle version of the Sizzle-Q from the same supplier. I got mine at Lowes I think.
Sizzle-Q is the most popular piece of outdoor cookware sold by Little Griddle, and for good reason! Sizzle-Q is sized to fit almost any gas grill on the market today, and it pioneered Little Griddle's patented vented cross-brace system, which provides our griddles with strength and even heat management. Built from 100% stainless steel, Sizzle-Q features a full-width grease well, ample griddle space, and generous sidewalls. Fun to cook on, easy to clean, and sized right for almost any gas grill, Sizzle-Q will truly turn your grill into an "outdoor kitchen." Try one today!
