Lonestar grillz griddle top experience vs warming oven

Hello,

Owners of Lonestargrillz offsets with the griddle top - do you use the griddle plate and if you could would you prefer not having and just having solid steel on top or do you find the griddle useful?

One thing I wonder is if you use the griddle - how do you deal with the grease as no way to drain?

I am trying to decide whether to order just the way it comes with the griddle/cover, without the griddle and just solid steel as top of FB or to get the warming oven.

Thanks,

Mark
