Just got my first Blackstone over the weekend and have been watching videos like crazy on it. Thank you for the simplified version on cleaning it. To the point and informative.
If you live somewhere with higher humidity, it definitely helps, or if you only use your griddle once in a while! We cook on ours at least 5 days a week, year round, and live on the high desert, so it's not necessary for me. That being said, it is also a great protection against rodents getting onto your griddle top through the grease trap!
After you've cleaned your griddle, with the heat still on high, wipe a thin layer of oil onto your griddle top and shut down the heat! Make sure it is thin! It's just acting as a protective layer until your next cook!
I've never had that issue! I will eat my dinner with my family, then come back and clean up. By that time, the grease has cooled enough that it's not an issue!
@@therosesbackyardbbq5351 I am glad that you said that you eat first, then clean the griddle. I was thinking that if you cleaned the griddle before eating, your food will be cold! I was thinking that the cleanup was be much more time consuming too. Thanks for sharing.
Great video. How can a video have 25K views but only 202 likes and the content creator only has 213 subscribers (BTW I'm #213, lol)? Come on people, it doesn't cost a thing to click like and subscribe, maybe even leave a comment, but it's a huge help to these small channels. Thank you for the great content.

@@therosesbackyardbbq5351 ok. Thanks for responding
What temp did you leave it on while cleaning and oiling ? Medium or low or in between?
I clean my griddle on high! And shut off right before I oil it!
I'm New to griddle cooking. When reseasoning after cleaning, does the heat stay on?

Thank you sir 👍
When pushing the water into the drip tray, do you ever get flareups?
I've never had that issue! I will eat my dinner with my family, then come back and clean up. By that time, the grease has cooled enough that it's not an issue!
Great question!

I have the bigger grease cup as well. Good investment! They should make all these 36” grills with that standard.
Is there any reason you don't let that final coat of oil get hot and add to the seasoning before you turn it off?
I always put my griddle away with a thin, fresh layer of oil! Added protection! And it will burn in when I preheat my griddle for the next cook!
I've never used water. 😂
Great! So you like a dirty griddle? 🤣
OK so......what do you use then?
