First attempt at smash burgers

Turned out pretty good. I don’t have a burger press so I used a sauce pan with foil over the bottom. Didn’t do too bad. Tasted great!

NY Strip, Sautéed Mushrooms & Onions and Homemade grilled beans

Been loving this new grill since we got it.

Today I had the opportunity to cook some nice NY strips for me & the hubster.

This was my FIRST time cooking steaks like this. I’ve only ever done them on the countertop George Foreman. I’d like to think I did pretty well for a newbie.

I cooked the beans first in a doubled up disposable aluminum pan. Still burnt the bottom slightly but was definitely less than it would have been.

Next went the onions, then mushrooms.

Once that was all done I seared the edges of hubbys larger steak. Got his laid out and then worked on the edges of mine. He likes his more medium rare and I like mine a bit more on the medium side. His was a little over but not quite medium. Mine was a little under.

Over all everything was delicious and hubby said it was restaurant quality. Which is awesome! And not bad for my first time.

Beans were slightly salty from the kinders seasoning plus the bacon. But that was my only real issue.

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure

Found on the street. Needs a bit of work, but the price is right.

How much work do I have ahead of me to fix this?

Just checked on my blackstone after not using it much this summer, had some health and family issues that just kept me from cooking on it as much, and it’s flaking. I’d like to keep it if possible so this isn’t a convince me to get a new one on sale at Walmart post, though they do have some nice ones at mine. Just looking for advice from the experts.

Revived This $90 Omnivore

I bought a 22 inch Blackstone a couple years ago and we've loved using it. We recently bought a travel trailer and decided to take out the OEM tiny griddle, and leave the 22 inch in there. Been looking passively at larger units for the house, but was waiting for Black Friday sales.

Until I found this Omnivore on Marketplace. Got it for $90. Individual I purchased it from said he only used it 3-5 times and couldn't get the seasoning right, nor liked cooking on it(?!?!).

Needless to say it was an easy fix. About an hour and a half in getting the griddle clean. And another hour in seasoning it, while sitting and watching SNF, it's finished. Pleased with the results. Plan on making some breakfast for dinner tomorrow on it!
