I have a host who just purchased the professional series double griddle, and wanted to know if it was safe to use on a propane camp stove (like in an RV). Any ideas?
 
Yes. It's no different than a gas stove. The only thing is with propane, it's VERY easy to overheat it, so just tell her to watch the heat.
 
We use ours for camping all of the time. I need to get another for the house, I get tired of having to go through the camping gear to use it at home.:)

Thanks, ladies! I will let her know. She also wanted to know if it heats evenly being on two separate burners, not having one myself I told her about the heat conductive properties etc etc... I'm guessing that if y'all use yours enough to take them camping, that it's a great product! ;)
 
It heats evenly on a ceramic top stove, so ya know it is good!
