Overview
The Blackstone 5483 is a griddle cover sized for Blackstone's 28 inch griddle cooking stations with a hood, made from 600D polyester with cinch straps and clips to hold it snug against wind rather than just draping over the top.
The cover is built to close over both the griddle top and the side shelves when those shelves don't fold down, which is a common fit problem with generic covers on this griddle size. A PVC water-resistant coating on the fabric keeps rain out while the polyester itself resists fading and tearing over repeated outdoor exposure.
- Custom fit for the 28 inch Blackstone griddle with hood
- Heavy-duty 600D polyester construction
- Water resistant PVC coating
- Cinch straps with quick-snap clips for a secure fit
Who it's for
Suits an owner of the 28 inch Blackstone griddle with hood who keeps it outdoors and wants a cover shaped for the side shelves as well as the cooking surface. Owners whose griddle sits under a patio roof and rarely gets rained on may not need the full cinch-strap protection this offers.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Owners repeatedly describe the 600D fabric as thicker than typical big-box tarps and say the cinch straps keep it in place through real storms without lifting. The consistent complaint is length, with more than one owner saying the cover runs a bit long for the 28 inch griddle and has to be folded before the griddle can be rolled.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- 600D polyester with PVC coating resists rain and fading
- Cinch straps and clips keep the cover secure in wind
- Fits griddles with side shelves that don't fold down
- Easy to put on and take off single-handed
- Runs a bit long for the 28 inch griddle on some units
- Needs folding or rolling before moving the griddle
Performance notes
The 600D polyester with a PVC water-resistant coating is built to shed rain and block insects and dust from the cooking surface between uses. Cinch straps and clips pull the cover tight against the griddle body so wind doesn't lift it, which several owners specifically tested through storms. The main fit issue reported is length: on some 28 inch units the cover runs a bit long and needs to be folded or rolled up before the griddle can be moved.

Does the Blackstone 5483 cover fit griddles with side shelves that don't fold down?
Yes, owners with that configuration report a good fit, with the cover long enough to cover both the griddle and the raised side trays.
Is the cover fully waterproof?
It uses a water-resistant PVC coating over 600D polyester, which owners describe as keeping the griddle dry through storms rather than just light rain.
Is the cover too long for the 28 inch griddle?
A few owners note it runs slightly long and needs to be folded or rolled up before rolling the griddle around, though it still covers the unit well.
