I have the Camp Chef FTG900. It’s big. The FTG600 would be perfect for most families. I cooked on a Blackstone for 5-6 years before buying the Camp Chef a couple of years ago. I hated the grease management setup on the old Blackstone’s. That shouldn’t be the case anymore as they redesigned it a couple of years ago. I much prefer the Camp Chef to the Blackstone though.

-More robust build
-Double lower shelves = more storage and structural rigidity
-Not affected by wind like the Blackstone’s
-Much more even heat distribution
-Good grease management

I will say that the Camp Chefs tend to run hotter than the Blackstone’s. Some don’t like that, but I have learned to adapt. When this thing wears out, which I don’t see happening anytime soon, I’ll more than likely buy another Camp Chef.

It’s the only kind of haircut my dad would allow when I was a kid. Duh.

I remember it a little differently. But, hey, I’m usually wrong.

I’ve got the Camp Chef FTG 600. It’s a great product. So versatile. It’s my most used outside cooking tool. The 600 is perfect size for us. The weekend breakfast sure are nice now, as well as the weekday dinners.

I picked up a Blackstone 36 a couple of months ago. I really enjoy it and agree it's a nice change of pace from low and slow bbq. I have a natural gas hookup so bought the conversion kit. Easy to install and great not having to worry about refilling propane bottles.
