blackstone runs them gambit on having multiple similar yet different models across various retailers. Your best is to compare the model numbers directly on a store that happens to carry both. Others are definitely more knowledgeable but i think omnivore = thicker griddle and that a hinged hood is preferred over the flat cover.
"The Omnivore features a lighter, warp-resistant top with built-in wind guards and an "X" brace, requiring fewer BTUs for the same performance. Original models rely on heavier steel and higher BTUs"
If you need the higher BTU and to get it super hot, you'd need the original.

it was also the same price when they closed them out. everyone that waited for a better price ended up snapping them up at the same mid summer sale price in the end.
It also excels at cooking vegetables for fajitas, taco meat, fried rice, breakfast foods, and other meals where you want to cook multiple ingredients together and easily move them around on the cooking surface.
For steaks and traditional burgers, however, I prefer my charcoal grill. The smoke and open-flame cooking provide additional flavor that a flat-top griddle simply can't replicate.
In short, I see a Blackstone and a grill as complementary rather than competing tools—they each excel at different types of cooking.
