r/blackstonegriddle

Brother just switched from Blackstone to Weber, he likes it more, personally I find it very similar. Downside I don’t think it gets as hot, and I’ve only used it twice (compared to constant use of a Blackstone). Upside I think it looks nicer, and a far better location for the grease trap, plus allegedly it won’t rust.. I’m getting married in 13-days and need to know which one I want gifted to me and don’t have the time to do comprehensive comparison on my own..

On sale for 120 off, haven't used it yet but hapywith it so far.

Just finished assembling my 30” Culinary Collection and as I placed the griddle and removed the paper that was “protecting” the griddle I found what I believe is a magnet that was placed on the advertisement on top of the brown piece of paper that must have slipped underneath and created a pretty decent rust spot.

Should I be packing this back up and replacing it or is it salvageable?

Just wanted to share how amazing these came out. My lovely wife cooked up 15 English muffins on the blackstone so we didn’t have to make bread in the oven with all the heat on the east coast.

Have you made these or anything else like it on the griddle?

Edit:
My apologies for not including the recipe. My wife picks one and tries it so sometimes it’s different and I don’t know.

Is this cleaned well enough after cooking for the first time? Not really sure what I’m looking for. Scraped off excess with water and added a layer of oil down and shut it down.

I just assembled my brand-new Blackstone, and I’m not sure if this is an issue or not. I think it shows up in the photo, there’s a 1/8” gap under one of the posts/legs/feet, preventing it from sitting flat. It’s never been turned on, so it’s not possible to have warped by heating. I can’t tell whether the top came warped from the factory, or if one of the little “legs” is simply too long/too short, and I don’t know what’s going to happen when it gets heated for the first time. I considered putting a washer under one of the legs to stop it from rocking, but I’m not sure if that’s the best move with a brand new grill.

After having our Blackstone griddle out and not in use for a long time, it's had time to really rust up. We scrapped it, used cleaner and sponges just for it. The rust has raised bumps where it has formed. Anyone have advice on how to get it back to being usable? Or is it not salvageable anymore?

Smash burgers on Saturday (going too fast to put my beer on the grill or even get a pictures of the cooking. I even cooked the corn on the cob on it. Then breakfast in the am. I love making pancakes on this thing. The brown so evenly.

I purchased from a local Lowes yesterday. Out of the box there's some rust/oxidation which I am less concerned about than the damage to the hood of the grill.

I do not want to go through the hassle of a return/ replacement with Lowes if this is not a big deal however my concern is that this falls right along the seam of the hood. I worry about it being a weak point for rust or further damage over time

Any advice on how I should proceed? This is now the 2nd grill I've received that's damaged and frankly I am just out of patience and just want to get to using it, but also don't want to regret it.

Just curious… haven’t used my Griddle in about 6 months, but I always keep it clean and seasoned after each use. I also keep it covered when not in use. We live in Arizona where it is always hot too… The couple rust spots seemed to clean up pretty good… Just the usual question about the rust… Should I update my tetanus shot?!? 💁🏼‍♂️

Breakfast the morning after Americas 250th!

Cooking breakfast potatoes or as we call them home fries seasoned with lawrys all seasoning, smoked paprika, ghee, and bacon. If you want to take your steak, hamburgers, chicken or potatoes to the next level try some ghee. We camp with a one burner blackstone and ghee always steals the show with friends and family asking what the heck did you do to this it doesn't taste this good when we cook it. Breakfast is bacon sandwich, home fries with bear and burtons breakfast sauce, this sauce is not for the black pepper is too spicy crowd.

After dusting off the outside of my griddle with a microfiber towel I was seasoning the griddle when the wind blew the microfiber towel on to it and melted in a split second i can’t get it off am I cooked.
