Overview
A gas-powered Camp Chef unit in the FTG line, which typically denotes a flat top griddle, built with four burners on a freestanding black cart frame.
The model code FTG36CG42 points to a 36-inch flat top rather than a traditional open-grate grill, though the listing does not specify griddle plate material or thickness, so buyers wanting that confirmed should check Camp Chef's own spec sheet. Cast frame construction gives it the look of a standard outdoor cooking cart.
- Camp Chef FTG36CG42, gas-powered
- 4 burners
- Freestanding black cart, 32 x 72 x 39.5 in
- Flat top griddle format (FTG series)
Who it's for
Good for anyone who wants griddle-style cooking, such as pancakes, smash burgers, or stir fry, rather than grill grates over open flame. Not the right pick for someone specifically wanting charred grill marks.
Pros and cons
- Four independent burners for temperature zoning
- Freestanding cart design, no built-in install needed
- Large cooking footprint
- Listing does not confirm griddle plate thickness or material
- No cooking area or BTU spec given
- No color options beyond black listed
Performance notes
Four gas burners under a 32 x 72 x 39.5 inch black cart frame suggest enough surface area for a large flat top, letting several dishes cook side by side at different burner settings.
