The Carrizo Griddle is a carbon steel, long-form cooking surface built for fire, flame, and modern induction cooktops. Measuring approximately 20 × 11 inches (not including the handles), it spans across standard full-size ranges, giving you a generous working area while maintaining the responsiveness and control of carbon steel.

Perfect for:

• Full breakfast spreads—eggs, bacon, hash browns, pancakes all at once
• Cooking across multiple burners for even heat and more control
• Live fire or oven use, from weeknight meals to outdoor cooking

It features two integrated handles—modern in form, handmade the old way, and designed for balance when moving between stovetop, oven, or open flame.

Each piece carries the marks of its making. Slight variations in shape, finish, and color are natural and do not affect performance.

Made in Santa Barbara, California.

Each item is unique and comes with slight imperfections in shape, finish, and color. It's all part of the character of the pieces we sell, and will not affect performance.

Bring the ranch home with a 1/2 hog from Richards Regenerative — approximately 75 lbs of beautifully cut, frozen pork ready to fill your freezer and your dinner table. This package includes smoked bacon, hams, pork chops, shoulder roasts, spare ribs, sausage, and more… all from pasture-raised pigs raised with care right here on our ranch. Expertly processed by our friends at The Country Butcher in Linda, CA, one of our favorite local butcher shops. Trust us… this is the kind of pork that ruins grocery store pork forever.
