Abstract: A griddle (10) is disclosed which includes a base (11) and a griddle plate (13). The base includes a frame (15) and a removable grease trough (16). The frame includes sidewalls (18) with top surface (22) having a grease collection channel (23) with a capture hole (24) located so that liquids within the grease collection channel flow through the grease capture hole and into the grease trough. The base has a grease trough well (26) configured to receive the grease trough therein. The grease trough includes a trough collection catch (28) with a sump (32), a handle base (29), and a thermally insulative handle or handle insert (30). The griddle plate has a top surface (38) and a stepped bottom surface (39) defined by a peripheral side edge (40). The stepped bottom surface includes a groove (44) which forms a drip edge (45) positioned above the grease collection channel.
