Tailgates, campsites and a small back patio all ask for the same thing: a flat cooking surface that heats fast and packs away afterwards. A ceramic plate is the difference here, because food releases from it far more readily than from bare steel and cleanup becomes a wipe rather than a scrape. The tall lid traps heat over the surface and keeps most of the smoke and splatter down where it belongs instead of in your face.
