please tell me about the griddle you're using. brand, size?
It's a Presto. Cost about $29 at my local grocery store. WalMart has them. I've actually got 3 of them. 2 in the camper, one in the house.
I like the more square one better than the longer more narrower one, personally.
I run a separate extension cord from the campground electric post and just use it instead of plugging it into the camper. We also use the same extension cord to keep our laptop computers and cell phones powered when outside too.
I really like the flat electric "Presto" griddles, because I can control the temperature so much better than over a fire or over a BBQ grill or even a gas stove.
I do take extra effort to ensure the griddle is flat. I put blocks under the picnic table to level it as much as possible, and then I have a bunch of 1/4 inch 2x4 inch boards (painted to resist dirt and grease splatter) so I can put them under the feet of the griddle to fine tune the level. I also use my small carpenter's level on the top of the griddle to make sure it's as level as possible before turning on the heat. This way, eggs don't run to the edge, and grease, oil, or butter doesn't run off into the drip pan before things even get hot.
We really enjoy them.
