Spec me a... Griddle...

[Amp34]

I'm on the lookout for a nice griddle pan, anyone have any recommendations?

The ones you see in most places seem to be light aluminium but I'm under the impression heavy bases are better? I'm tempted by a Le Creuset griddle pan but it's almost too heavy and more importantly £80...

Used for cooking steaks etc.

For steaks you want a flat pan imho .

I got a cast iron one from Amazon, seems equally as good as a Le Creuset tbh though I'm sure there are differences in manufacture etc.

Cast iron flat pan as well? I'm looking for a nice frying pan for other bits and guessing a heavy bottom is the best general frying pan to go for as well?

I take it then that any cast iron pan will do or is there a significant difference between cheap and high end brands?
