Premium Porcelain Enamelled Cast Iron
Cast iron is one of the best materials for barbecue cooking because it stores and distributes heat exceptionally well.
Benefits include:
- Outstanding heat retention
- Even cooking temperatures
- Excellent searing performance
- Durable porcelain enamel coating
- Rust-resistant finish
- Long service life
- Easy maintenance
The matt porcelain enamel finish protects the cast iron while providing years of reliable cooking performance.
The Best of Both Worlds
Unlike a full hotplate, the Half Griddle Plate allows you to retain one cooking grill.
This gives you the flexibility to:
- Grill steaks while frying onions
- Cook bacon beside eggs
- Grill chicken while cooking vegetables
- Cook seafood while grilling sausages
- Prepare complete meals on one BBQ
For many Weber Baby Q owners, this is the perfect everyday cooking setup.
Pair with the Mega-Flame Burner
For even greater performance, combine the Half Griddle Plate with the Campaquip Mega-Flame Burner.
Together they provide:
- Faster pre-heating
- More even heat distribution
- Improved cooking performance
- Better searing
- Higher cooking temperatures
Campaquip also offers combination packages that bundle the Half Griddle Plate, Half Grill Plate and Mega-Flame Burner for the ultimate Baby Q upgrade.
Important Safety Information
Campaquip does not recommend using two half griddle plates to create a full cooking surface.
Two half plates can restrict airflow inside the barbecue. If you want a complete flat plate, choose the Campaquip Full Griddle Plate, which has been specifically engineered with ventilation gaps and centre drainage holes to allow safe cooking with the lid open or closed.
Australian Designed
The Campaquip Half Griddle Plate has been developed specifically for Australian barbecue cooking.
Features include:
- Precision fit
- Quality cast iron construction
- Matt porcelain enamel finish
- Designed for Australian conditions
- Built for years of regular use
Pair it with the matching Campaquip Half Grill Plate for one of the most versatile cooking setups available for the Weber Baby Q.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Weber® Baby Q models does this fit?
The Half Griddle Plate fits the Weber® Q100, Q120, Q1000 and Q1200. Older Q100 and Q120 models require HPSEAT mounting seats. It does not fit the newer Weber® Q1000N or Q1200N series.
Is this cast iron?
Yes. It's manufactured from porcelain enamelled cast iron, providing exceptional heat retention, durability and even cooking performance.
Can I use two half hotplates together?
No. Campaquip specifically advises against using two half hotplates because doing so restricts airflow. If you want a complete flat cooking surface, use the dedicated Campaquip Full Griddle Plate, which has been engineered with ventilation gaps and drainage holes for safe operation.
Why choose a half plate instead of a full plate?
A half plate lets you keep one grill section while adding a flat cooking surface. This allows you to grill steaks or sausages while simultaneously cooking bacon, eggs, vegetables or seafood, making it an excellent everyday setup.
Does this work well with the Mega-Flame Burner?
Yes. Pairing the Half Griddle Plate with the Campaquip Mega-Flame Burner provides faster pre-heating, more even heat distribution and improved overall cooking performance.
