As a 5 year griddle guy, this is great advice for the new gridlers. Extra tank does not cost much, but if it runs out when you are cooking, you fail, period. ALWAYS have a second tank ready to go. Probably the best advice ever for gridlers.

I am new to this and not a cook whatsoever. My wife is. I learned how to use my Traeger Timberline 1300 and internal temp cooking was the key or game changer. I have wanted a flat top grill and found you on This channel. I have watched a ton of your videos and bought your must haves. Just getting started but looking forward to this journey. You were my inspiration to go ahead and do this. Thank you for this video and all of the others. I have learned so much to date and still watching! Bought the 36" Blackstone pro series because of your video comparison. This weekend I am going to try a big breakfast cook.

I bought a diamond plate cover on Amazon for my Camp Chef which fits perfectly, plus it has a hook on each side which hooks easily to the back of the griddle. I always have it hooked when grilling which works as a perfect backsplash. Guess I better get some squirt bottles to complete my set-up. Thanks for the content.

@kenlemmond673 2 жыл бұрын

I just bought the same thing to put on a 36 that someone gave me. I already had a small 22 that came from Walmart and had the stand, lid and everything. I cleaned up the 36, re-seasoned it, bought an igniter and some replacement burners. I absolutely love the extra room. Now, I'm stoked about the new year and all the grilling I'll be able to do. Only issue with the 36, and its a minor one, is the cooktop is slightly warped. Looking for help on KZfaq for that now. I've mastered breakfast, cheeseburgers, stir fry, salmon and scallops and the occasional steak and pork chop. I feel like I've only scratched the surface. 2022 is going to be epic!

I got my first griddle a few weeks ago after watching your review of the Weber 28” Griddle. I liked how even the temps were. It’s just me and my wife I’m cooking for. It was affordable and is the right size for my patio. I used to make smash burgers on my big green egg with a little griddle but I’m 74 with some heart disease and with my less than optimal energy level the process of preparing the egg and getting it up to temperature was a bit too cumbersome. And since the place where I bought it (Ace Hardware) assembled and delivered it, I got it. I made smash burgers on brioche buns last night and my wife, who is recovering from some serious medical issues and doesn’t eat much, said they were very good and ate the whole thing. I’m going to try making some keto pancakes next. Thank you for all your videos, keep up the good work. I’m sure the Lord has a hand in it.

Just purchased a griddle yesterday very excited to get started. I cook exclusively with cast iron and or carbon steel on the charcoal grill. Instead of the towels I use the a stainless steel mesh scrubber to remove left over bits stuck to the cooking surface. Highly recommend using this instead clean up is much easier and way more efficient, it also keeps the cooking surface free from any fabric threads that may come off onto your cooking surface. Nice video thank you !

The two pouches on the outside of the bag hold the squirt bottles well and there is ample space inside for spatulas, tongs, spices ect.

That is a really good set of must haves. You have me convinced to get the dome system that you recommend because it comes with the rack for multi temperature cooking/warming.

I do appreciate your experience and thank you for your service.

Nice video and good tips. The scraper is #1, I rarely use two spatulas. When making smash burgers, I put the spatula down on the meat and press with the scraper that way I don’t bend my spatula. Also on the Camp Chef griddle, you can get the cheap Dollar Tree all-metal scrapers with the curved metal handle and hang them on the side of the griddle as wind blocks (a must in Texas!).

Love my Blackstone and this was great content. I have everything less the “serving tray”. Never thought of that so I’m making several trips back and forth. One item I’d add to this list are small spray bottles. I keep Avo and EVO oil in mine and I’m able to mist the cook top for stir fry, after cleaning and seasoning, etc…. I use that all the time. Its a convenient way to prep the cook surface.

That was very informative. I’m new to flattop cooking, so I need all the information I can get. Of e my son, Zeb, is my goto mentor when he is home. Thanks again.

On #5, I have a friend that uses a brick wrapped in tinfoil as a bacon press. Talk about inexpensive! 🤣👍🏻

Great video and excellent tips. One small caveat though. Are far as instant read thermometers, there can be only one. You have to go with a Thermapen. And I think this week they are running a Father's Day special on the classic for $59. As a long time BBQ guy and short time flat top grill guy, I can't recommend them enough.

I have everything you mentioned, except the rack. I have to get one of those. I liked that thing where you added the smoking chips under the dome.

My father enlisted in the Army just out of HS. It was the tail end of WWII. He told me the cooks were the ones that weren’t to bright, the ones who didn’t have the highest IQ’s. That was Army during WWII. My brother in laws father was a Navy chef during Vietnam. He was far from stupid and a great guy. He also knew how to pick up arms and fight on the river boats. I can only wish some of that rubbed off on his grandsons because it surly didn’t rub off on his son.
