Induction cookers For Inverters And Hot Weather?

Propane fires add heat and moisture YUCK.

I would love to have a ferrous griddle for hot days. Hot Cakes!

Ideas? Counterpoints? Note the "ferrous". Searches have been fruitless
  • Cast iron works okay on an induction cooktop; and cast iron griddles are not hard to find. One with a flat (not raised, nor with significant embossing of logos etc.) would of course be preferred.

    I suppose one could also go to a metal dealer and get a suitably sized and shaped chunk of steel plate, clean it well, and dub it a griddle. Grinding or milling a groove around the outside to catch excess grease/juices might be a good idea, albeit some non-trivial work.
  • Hi Mex,

    I love my NuWave induction hob. I use it with a cast iron frying pan for pan cakes. I use it with a chicken fryer for soups and stews. It works well with the Magnum inverter.

    Like most induction devices it cycles on and off once it reaches the set temperature. However, it does so a lot faster most other induction cookers--faster than a kill-a-watt meter can read.
