I recently got my FIRST Blackstone griddle and as I type "how to use griddle?" YOUR video popped up and now I'm HOOKED thank you miss Betty💜🙏🏾

@HB_Norski 26 дней назад

Tip #6 is my new favorite step. I never used to do this. Quick wipe down with water and a thin layer of oil on the entire griddle before cooking makes so much sense to keep the griddle clean and evenly seasoned.

New griddle owner. Great video. Thank you. I had no idea there was so much involved in cooking on a Blackstone. I wanted something to take my cooking out of the kitchen..as well as when camping or boondocking. This may be a bit more time-consuming than I want to tackle.

Happy New Year, Dez!…. Yeah, I have to “prep”, too… but like the one who said everything done on patio outside, I need to do some stuff outside to… otherwise it’s too much to carry outside to keep the cooking time in check… biggest issue is when I forgot something three times while the food is cooking! Marathon racing to keep from burning on this hot surface-even on lo/med lo… I have a church project imminently due…with the threat of snow 17 Jan…sent a certain “somebody” an email with previous year’s project images for any suggestions to switch up…haven’t heard from yet…😔

Hi BB . I agree with having everything ready before you head out to the Blackstone but in my situation it’s better to do most things on my Patio. I do most of the cooking which my wife loves but I’m messy. When I cut up veggies it gets ugly inside especially Cabbage. I cut it outside & I use my leaf blower to clean up .

@BlackstoneBetty 5 месяцев назад

Love that 😂 when I say prep I mean just get all your ingredients gathered! I do most my cutting and mixing and such outside too! But hate to have to run back in and out for how many utensils or whatever I may have forgot! Also love keeping the kitchen clean for your wife!!!

I cook every Saturday evening. I've cooked with charcoal and with in-direct heat, I finally got use to a gas grill and cooked for years on it. I have a master built smoker that I don't use near as much anymore since I bought a Blackstone 36". I'd rather cook on it than anything else. Thanks for the heads up on the onions. Good Idea. My son-in-law has one also and has rust issues. He bought one with the Blackstone lid and I noticed there is a huge area for air to get to the griddle when not in use. We live in the humid South. So I opted for a custom aluminum cover that lays close to the top edges. I don't have those issues. I also bought a heavy duty plastic tote that just fits on the shelf under the griddle to store anything needed to cook on the griddle . Like I said before, I really like cooking on my griddle!

@nicolestevenson8873 5 месяцев назад

Welcome to the Blackstone family! Love Blackstone products. We have had our BS Griddle since 2015, gave it to my husband for his birthday. He still uses it everyday, although we have 4 more BS griddles in various sizes, as well as the E series indoor griddle. We have loved BS for a long time and it’s our go to grill for our every day use. My best tip is to use it often and it seasonings itself more and more after each use. Don’t get discouraged if food sticks on the first couple uses, just keep cooking. Season it well, clean it properly, keep it away from water, treat it like your favorite cast iron pan and it will treat you well for years to come. BS RU-vid is your friend for great recipes and cleaning tips.

One thing I have learned over the past couple of years with my Blackstone is most cooks are done on low to medium heat. It’s easier to add more heat when needed by either turning a burner up or turning on another burner.

@michaelthornton9317 Месяц назад

Great video. Thank you. Just subscribed. Newby here. Just got mine last week. Used it fist time last night. Made 3 packs of chicken tenders. Like you said, I was scared about the temp, so I cooked it low and slow. Turned out great. Any suggestions for a meat thermometer? Also, woke up realizing I did not apply a coat of oil after cleaning it last night. Went out this am and wiped off with a paper towel and lightly oiled. UGH!! Also, like the mats and the rack on the griddle. Thanks again.

When I started using my 1st griddle I got a laser temp gage and a digital meat thermometer. I would google the proper temp to cook foods at and what the ideal temp of the meat for my desired doneness. Made life easy cooking on the griddle.

@marydyer5565 5 месяцев назад

Loved the Video I was a cook for years, I do agree with and do all you said. What I will say to new owners don't be intimidated you are not going to hurt the griddle. The more you cook on it the more you will learn it is just a big cook top and you don't have to cook in small batches!! I would suggest that if you are lucky enough to have a large enough area to get a small fridge to keep stuff in if not a cooler will work. I do my prep work a head of time and keep it in the outside fridge along with all my condiments.

Take your time with getting accessories for your Blackstone!! You can spend a fortune on tons of items that will barely use if ever. Overall buckle up because a Blackstone is one of the best things you can own to cook on!!! I put off getting one for years but finally got a 17” to take camping. Since then I’ve barely cooked on anything else. Home, tailgates, parties,there is always something to throw on the blackstone and rock everyone’s tastebuds!!

@IanDouglas 8 дней назад

Most commercial grill tops are stainless steel, not cast iron. I worked at a Wendy's through high school and WOW did we have to scrub and scrape that thing to make it shiny for the next day. A cast iron grill top like this should turn black when you "season" it and remain black.

Newbie with griddles...do I have to oil the whole thing if I am cooking a small amount? Seems like it will take alot more oil than using a fry pan like if I want to cook a couple of eggs. Also, is there a collector for grease? I like to collect my bacon grease and cook with it.

@IanDouglas 8 дней назад

Oil thins out as it heats up so you'd only need 2 or 3 tablespoons of oil to coat the entire surface. Yes that's still more than a small frying pan, though.
