They all share one thing: heat comes from an

Yes—Blackstone sells plug-in griddles that run on household power, giving you a flat-top cooking surface without propane. If you’re asking because you can’t use gas where you live, or you just don’t want to deal with tanks, Blackstone does have electric options.
