My TT has a quick connect fitting for adding propane accessories. I had this professionally installed.

Does anyone know what I need to connect my Blackstone griddle to my TT propane quick connect?

I second the griddle. This is one the best purchases I made for the camper. Anyways.....as an option to figuring out how to connect it to the low pressure valve I purchased a 1 lb refill connector for my 20lb tank. I carry it anyway. It works great. Place the 1 lb tank in the freezer for a couple of hours, screw it into the adapter and flip over the 20 lb tank. Open the valve and within 2-3 minutes its full. Personally I like using the portable tanks because it makes the griddle portable.

I seasoned mine in the house oven. Coat with oil....500 degrees for 1 hour.....let cool re-coat with oil and repeat. TYurn vent hood on as it will release smoke if you open the oven mid stream. Did this 3 times. This way you don't have to burn propane.

You can't connect the low pressure side (past the regulator) of the RVs propane system to the Blackstone's regulator because it won't work. You either need to run high pressure propane (before the RVs regulator) to the Blackstone's regulator, or figure out a way to connect the Blackstone without it's regulator/one pound tank fitting to the low pressure RV line.

I bought the 17" griddle last month and the hose that connects to the 20# bottle then the grill where the 1# bottle connects. Hose was so short, I think 3 feet, that I had to put the bottle up on Lego type leveling blocks so the hose reached the griddle on the table. I went to a local LP gas supplier seeking a longer hose, which they had a 5' hose, and they asked me about the fittings to hook to my TT's LP gas system. I don't have the fitting under the TT but out of curiosity I asked what that would cost. They showed me that adapter that would go on the griddle in place of the LP gas tubing for the 1# bottle and a hose would attach to that. $17 dollars in the pack. I have since looked under the TT and there is an LP manifold near the front wheels of the TT with unused ports. I might just get what I need and have an LP outlet and not have to use one of my 20# bottles.
