Topping out at about 300 degrees (f) on your grill / griddle? Most likely your propane regulator needs to be reset.
If you open your propane valve while having the burner knobs open, the regulator will falsely detect a leak and go into safety mode restricting the amount of propane allowed through.
Simply reset the regulator and get back to grilling!
This video shows how to reset the propane regulator on a blackstone griddle, but the same process can be used on any propane grill.

Dude I had prepared a killer Covid quarantine dinner for my family, two kids home from college, 3 lbs of filet perfectly prepared and bam - low flame. Night ruined right. Wrong. Fire up YT and found your video and it literally saved my ass. Thanks a million for posting this. Everyone stay safe and god bless!!!!

@coachk2450 4 года назад

Great simple tip and it fixed the problem. BBQ was working great until it ran out of propane and the tank had to get refilled. Barely lit until doing these easy steps. Thx

@jasongibson5189 Год назад

Thanks for this video. Bought a large Blackstone and it's been running low. Thought it was a bad tank. Exchanged it and no improvement. Just reset the regulator and it works again. Thanks again sir

@cybercruiser69 4 года назад

AWESOME!! We have the 17" blackstone and bought a new 5lb tank, smaller than the big 20pounders, but, bigger than the disposables. But, I kept getting low flow. After seeing your video, I tried opening the valve very slowly, instead of very fast like I usually did, and it appears to have resolved the issue, once, at least. If it works next time, then I'll believe it!!! Thanks again!!

@RobsBackyardBBQ 4 года назад

Great to hear Bill! Yeah, I'm not sure when everyone introduced these safety valves, but I didn't get the memo! :)

@VeloChicago Год назад

I did the same thing. Can't get the 5lb to work. I'll try it your way!! Thanks. **Stupid new safety measures@#$&!**

@garysparks2681 10 месяцев назад

The 1st video I watched showed me exactly how a regulator works - decreasing about 150 psi at the tank down to about 1 psi at the burner tube. Interesting video - he sawed the parts apart with a bandsaw, and showed valves and spring stuff. But what he didn't explain was why I had about 270 degrees when I normally had about 650-700 degrees. So I got to your video next, and saw my mistake, and how to fix it. Firstly, I had left one of the burners on, accidentally - so the 1 psi was depleted. The regulator couldn't recover out of protection mode with the 150 psi applied. Followed your steps, and BINGO - I'm a happy griller again. Great video... I won't forget the process steps on how to reset a regulator again. 😉

@carolgarner8081 2 года назад

Thank you for making this video. I was in hate with my 22in Adventurer and ready to go back to my 17 in. It would literally take me an hour to cook a pack of bacon. I cooked a pack today and almost burned it. thank you so much for troubleshooting this propane hose issue. I’m in love with this griddle now!

@pabloorantes6758 4 года назад

I used my grill for the first time a year ago and worked perfectly. Unfortunately when I went to use it again the flame was very low so I thought that my grill was defective so I had basically had given up on. I never went back to the store to returned it so I thought that I had lost the 400 dollars I had spent on it. Today I saw your video and I followed your steps and it worked!!!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to do this video

@RobsBackyardBBQ 4 года назад

Great to hear Pablo! Thanks for letting me know - happy grilling!

@jasonbath3617 4 года назад

You are the man! I have a blackstone 17 and was using the disposable propane cans. I just went and got a 1 gallon tank and it was nothing but problems!! Low flow/ low temp. Now , thanks to you, I can take it camping with confidence! Again, thank you!

@TheTwoTwelve 3 года назад

@mactoyscb 2 года назад

Works like a charm! I've ran into this issue numerous times. Usually ended up just disconnecting everything and trying again with varying degrees of success. I think I was doing it too fast. Not giving it the 30 seconds. Either way, the 30 second wait combined with the slow operating of the valve seems to work great. Thanks.

@44jimcordell31 3 года назад

Thank you! What a simple fix! If I had just watched your video before the Labor Day cookout rather than after.

Man thank you for sharing your find! I purged the lines last time I used the grill then the next day I had 8 people dinner but the flame was so low and the take was heavy. I ended up taking the tank to get refilled but the operator told me I had 10 lb of gas still in it. Your vid helped thanks again

What did I do without this for so long?2 pieces of French Toast at a time ?20 minutes for 10 pancakes ?NO MOREthis griddle is awesomeTook some time to season before first use ru-vid.comUgkxHM5jmQoi4dbb0hoWSBs9hPhSwXUbGVG_ did brunch and hibachi dinner on Mother’s Day and it worked like a charmSturdy, well built and heats up quick. burners2-4 were a little stubborn but then lit up.Great addition to my patio.Bought the cover and it’s great, also bought the accessories kit - scraper is good but the spatulas are flimsy to be honest that’s my only negative.

@akgeezer 3 года назад

Thanks for the info.!!! I have a grill with the same problem. I decided to replace it with a 22" Blackstone Griddle like yours. Just picked it up yesterday from Walmart. It's still in the box sitting in the back of my pick up. I'm hoping your info will bring my other grill back from the dead. I'll still keep the Blackstone too, though. I'm looking forward to using it! Call me old fashioned, but I just hate to throw things away. It's only three years old with very little use on the maybe five or six trips we go camping a year. Thanks again!!!

@RobsBackyardBBQ 3 года назад

Hey man, sorry for the late reply. Were you able to fix your other grill? I hate throwing things away as well. Yeah, keep that 22" regardless i'd say! It'll come in handy for sure!

@dmwi1549 2 года назад

This happened to me while grilling. Tank ran out. Swapped tanks to recently refilled full tank. Then My Weber Genisis wouldn’t exceed 200f. My Temp gauge may be off. Checked all connections for debris. Disconnected tank but NOT for 30 seconds. Called propane supplier-no help. Then I typed “low flow” into the rectangle of knowledge. Should have done this first. 30 seconds later the grill is back to max heat. Thanks for posting!

@RobsBackyardBBQ 2 года назад

Awesome - glad it worked and thanks for letting me know!

@tnyberg67 Год назад

just what I needed. I've had this happen many times over the years and by sheer luck of taking the tank on and off finally got it working. Now I know the issue. Something worth noting. I live someplace that gets cold in the winter months and this issue seems worse in cold months. Meaning I think it takes longer for that "Slam" valve to open again when it is 10 degrees outside. I can say this issue is common when people change tanks because they generally let there LP run out, and just pull the old tank off and try to reignite the new tank without all the turning off of burners.

@user-mc7yf8ll3i 8 месяцев назад

Thank you.. I was getting to point where I questioned if this Blackstone was worth the hassle. I also found the if you light one burner at a time is another failsafe method to insure you don’t confuse the regulator.

@edpippin 5 лет назад

In general the regulators are finicky if you don’t start them right. I have a Holland Companion that about 1/2 the time I cant run on a 20#tank. It works perfect on the 1 pound, Has to do with the Pressure. I have to hold my mouth right.. I wrote this sometime ago and since then I have figured out to very slowly only open the 20# valve less than 1/8 of a turn and all is well with both grills.
