Blackstone Griddle Accessories: Liners and Guards
Blackstone is a lineup, not a single griddle, and its two most common accessories fit by rules that have nothing to do with which model you own by name. Get the rule right and the buy is obvious; get it wrong and you order a part that will not seat.
Grease cup liners fit by the grease SYSTEM. The 5017 liner is cut for the Rear Grease Management System, so it fits the current cooking stations, the Range Top Combo and the Pro Series, whatever their size. It does not fit the electric E-Series, which has its own low-profile cup, nor the Camp stow-and-go tables, nor the older front-grease and side-grease griddles. The question is not how big your griddle is; it is where it drains.
Wind guards fit by SIZE and by whether the griddle has a hood. The 5015 is the 36-inch guard, the 5016 the 28-inch, and there is an adjustable set for tabletops, but none go on a hooded or tailgater unit, and the Omnivore has guards built into the plate. Everything below is compiled from what Blackstone and its retailers publish and what owners report, with both linked; we do not test accessories physically.

| Griddle family | Grease system | Liner | Wind guard | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Rear-grease cooking stations, Range Top Combo, Pro Series | rear cup | 5017 fits | hook-over by size (5015 / 5016) | | Electric E-Series | own low-profile cup | no 5017 | by size, if no hood | | Camp stow-and-go (2246, 2250) | stow-and-go cup | no 5017 | tabletop adjustable | | Hooded or tailgater units | rear cup | 5017 fits the rear cup | no add-on guard | | Omnivore | rear cup | 5017 fits the rear cup | built into the plate | | Older front/side-grease griddles | front or side tray | no 5017 | by size, if no hood |
The single line to remember: liners go by grease system, guards go by size and hood. That is why "which Blackstone do I own" is not enough to buy either one. For a liner you need to know where the grease drains; for a guard you need the size and whether there is a hood in the way.
The two ways people buy the wrong part
Both spokes exist because Blackstone owners routinely buy the wrong thing, and in each case the mistake is reading the accessory off the griddle size instead of off the fit rule.
On liners, E-Series and Camp owners order a 5017 because it says "Blackstone," then find it will not seat in their cup. Front-grease owners find nothing online fits them at all, because the shelf is entirely rear-cup. On guards, owners of hooded and Omnivore griddles buy an add-on screen and find it fouls the lid, when their griddle either restricts guards or already has them built in. Naming those exclusions plainly is the whole job of these guides.
Where to go next
For the grease cup, the grease cup liners guide sorts the liners by grease system and names the E-Series, Camp and front-grease exclusions. For a breezy cook, the wind guards guide sorts the guards by size and by whether your griddle has a hood.
Questions owners ask
How do Blackstone grease liners and wind guards fit?
By different rules. A grease cup liner fits by the grease system: the 5017 fits the rear grease cup, not the E-Series or Camp cups. A wind guard fits by size and hood: the 5015 for a 36-inch, the 5016 for a 28-inch, and none on a hooded or Omnivore unit.
Will a 5017 liner fit any Blackstone griddle?
No. It fits the rear-grease cooking stations, the Range Top Combo and the Pro Series. It does not fit the electric E-Series or the Camp stow-and-go tables, which use their own cups, nor the older front-grease and side-grease griddles.
Why do wind guard listings name so many model numbers?
Because a guard fits a firebox footprint, and several bases share one at a given size. Sellers list the models that share the footprint, and often the ones that do not, such as the Culinary Series. The list is telling you a size band, not proving a fit on your exact griddle.
Do you test these accessories yourselves?
No. We compile what Blackstone and its retailers publish and what owners report, and we link both. Every product listing across these guides was opened by hand on 2026-08-03 with its title, availability, rating count and feature bullets read back. Nothing has been fitted to a griddle by us.
We start from the spec sheet
Every guide begins with the manufacturer's own numbers for the Blackstone griddles— rack ratings, tube sizes, clearances — each linked to where it was published.
We read what owners hit
Forum and community reports fill the gaps the spec sheet leaves, and they are labelled as owner reports, never as tested fact.
We say when it doesn't fit
Amazon pays us on clicks, so the honest "skip it" rows are the point. They stay in the tables.
