- NOTE: This is how I did it. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN DESIGN, INSTALLATION AND SAFETY. This is how I added a side burner to my Blackstone Griddle for deep frying, boiling, cast iron and wok cooking.

Very nice delivery. Keeps the interest. No distractions; make me feel like a friend or family getting a show and tell or advice
Thanks, James! I do my best and the rest is due to fine editing skills by my son.
Thanks Dave I have been trying to figure out a way to add a burner so I could cook fish. This is a great idea.
Thanks Carl. I'm sure it will be a benefit to you when you do it. Dave
Great hack!!! Craving your shrimp and grits all the way from California!
Thanks Nichole!! Miss you guys!
Great video, Dave. I also have a Blackstone and a propane hob, but had not thought to combine them as you have. Thanks for ideas, and keep the videos coming!!
Thanks Bruce! Good luck and please think SAFETY FIRST. Dave
I am very interested in purchasing a Blackstone and am enjoying your videos! Thank you for the ideas! Seems you have the brain of an Engineer:)
Thank you for your idea Captain! I do enjoy cooking with cast iron, and now can combine it with the Blackstone at one location!
Great, Ken. Hope you have fun with it. Dave
I thought your idea for adding a side burner to your Blackstone is pretty ingenious. Mainly because there are a lot of people that have earlier models. As for my self, I recently got the Blackstone 28" Rangetop Combo with Deep Fryer. I'm really liking it a lot. It has two separate burners just to the right of the griddle. There are selves on each end, the one on the range end has a removable builtin cutting board with the trash bag holder right below the cutting board. I got it at Walmart as the B3 model is sold exclusively at Walmart only.
Thank you for watching and especially for taking time to comment!
That is great. I have only cooked burgers and dogs twice on mine then here in Perth NY winter came and I now wait until Memorial day (if not later) for grilling weather... "Now how do I hook up a burner to boil water? If only I knew of an engineer that could...Wait! Maybe Dave has an idea. I'll go check." Of course you did. Throw the burner on the unused bottom shelf when done cooking and the cover still fits. I am constantly amazed at your skill in diagnosing a fixable problem be it this or that or how to bring your tools out in 1 trip. Then coming up with a solution that is so perfect that a chemist like myself has to say "And that's why he does this and I do not." 5 dimensional chess must be your thing. Next level teaching. I have thought about the side burner for 2 months. You showed us how in under 10 minutes. WOW
Hi Mark. Thank you for the kind words! My dad was a chemical engineer so I know you have special skills, too. Thanks for watching and especially for taking time to comment. Best to you, Dave
Very cool modification! I like how you are always thinking about safety when it comes to these mods and cooking. Can’t wait to see what you make in the next video with your new side burner!
Thanks Amy! I'll be sure you get a taste!
Extremely instructive, looking forwards to returning.
Thanks for taking time to comment!
Dave, your videos are always great and very informative. Thanks, you always get me thinking, thanks.
Thanks, Steb! I'm always looking for new ways to make it fun and interesting.
@@NextWithDave Are you still digging that Burner? It received a lot of bad reviews on Amazon.
@@stebstebanesier6205 Steb, I'm happy with the performance of the burner. l read the negative reviews and it seems some of the units were better quality than others. Also, some didn't know how to adjust the flame. Like I say in the video, it's turn out the bolt not in that makes the flame blue. I've had no problems with adjusting the flame with the manifold valves but they are a little finicky. One thing I did that helped was take a drill bit and dress the burner holes so they are smoother. Helped a lot. This is a China product and certainly not up to the standards we are used to but I don't know of any other like it on the market. All the other burners are way too hot on the low end. Hope this helps you decide. Thanks, Dave
Great to see you back Sir! Nice job on the modification.
Thanks for watching and taking time to comment!
Nice setup, excellent presentation. I have added a couple of adjustable propane regulators in mine. That way I can use several appliances at once and they all get as much fuel as they need. Plus it can boost the heat output on Blackstone or BBQ grill. The regulators and all the hoses have propane quick disconnects and I have a couple of splitters. I can put 3 hoses together if I want to run a propane fire pit 30 ft away from the propane tank.
That's a great idea! We call that appplication engineering. Good job!
So glad to see you doing well. Missed seeing your videos in the past few months
Thank you! I really appreciate all you guys for watching and taking time to comment. Dave
Great video as always. Fellow Floridian and Blackstone guy here, too. We are going to have to get you on a tighter schedule, though. You put together great content that is very easy to watch and your delivery is awesome. Keep it up!!
Thanks Earnie! I plan to do more frequently as long as I can keep the content fresh and valuable. I know there's lots of choices out there and I never want to waste anyone's time. Best, Dave
Learning so much from you, Dave! Keep it up :)
Thanks!!
Looks like a fantastic idea good work Dave
Thank you for watching and especially for taking time to comment!
I always look forward to your video's, I have used so many of your idea's. I have even been on other channels and put a link to your video's so others can enjoy your video's and idea's too. And with this video you did NOT disappoint, another great idea. In the next month or so, I am going to try and get a burner like this one, if money is allows. Again thanks for the upload, can't wait to see what's "Next With Dave".
Thank you very much for your kind words and for taking time to comment. I really appreciate it!!
Wow man you really just did a great Idea.. Love it..
Thanks!
awesome Ideas, I'm going to shop for one of those burners right now
Awesome! I put a link in the description if you want to order from Amazon. It is the same one I have. Thanks, Dave
Awesome idea! Thanks Dave.
Thanks Andy. I appreciate you taking time to comment. Dave
Good stuff Dave,love your channel

Great idea thank you for the video
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching and especially for taking time to comment!
Awsome idea for sure
Thanks, Mike. Good to hear from you again! Dave
I like it.
Thanks, Bill!
He's back!!
Thanks Chris!!!
I bet Todd Toven and Blackstone have there wheels turning now.
Hmm, you might be right. Blackstone actually now has a separate burner you can buy. I haven't looked at it closely but from what I've seen it looks a lot like any other fish cooker. That's fine...I've had several fish cookers beside my 'stone but they never could get the flame low enough to just simmer or slow boil. Always too hot. That's why I came up with this version. I'd be happy to do an un-boxing and trial if they'll send me one LOL. Thanks!
I bought the blackstone range top combo.. has everything I need.. 28" griddle with lid.. 2 side burners and a bonus deep fryer
@@CoryHackett Corey, that's great! I'd like to have one, too. But, I'm already invested in the one I have. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment. Dave
Great video♥♥
Dave, I noticed your wok. If that's the $17.00 carbon steel wok from Wal-Mart, it's well worth the money. We bought two of the cheap $5.00 woks at Wal-Mart and the black coating came off in the food. Their both in the trash now.
Hi Buddy. Yes, you are right. It is the steel wok from WM. It seasoned pretty well but I'm going to get the thin cast iron one this week. I had the real thick Lodge cast iron wok but found it took too long to heat up and a pain to clean. If I was cooking for a lot of people for a long time the Lodge would be good because it holds the heat but it's just me and the boss lady. Thanks, have fun and eat well. Dave
@@NextWithDave If remember correctly, there was some bad reviews on the thin cast iron wok. You might want to check the reviews.
@@buddycarroll9641 Thanks Buddy. You're right. not great reviews. But...I think maybe it's the factory seasoning they put on it that is coming off and the actual pan is ok. I might get one and sand the seasoning off and start from scratch. Hmmm, might make a good video.... Thanks again.
Will have to try this thank your sir for your video. Keep up the great work
Thank you for watching and especially for taking time to comment!
Enjoyed your video - great idea. May I ask where you got the deep fryer on your table? Thank you
Hi Sharon. Thanks for watching! I put a link to the deep fryer in the description below the video. Thanks Dave
Dave did you decide to get rid of the surround? I may have missed the video. If so any reason why you decided to get rid of it or is it that easy to add and remove?
Thanks for your question. I actually had sold that griddle unit to a subscriber and when I replaced it I never added a surround. Reason is that I'm now not cooking for as many people and really didn't need the extra space. Also, it is kind of a pain to put up and down every time you go out to cook. If you leave it up the cover does not fit right. I was using a plastic tarp which didn't look great. So, for you, and your situation the surround might be great. Thanks, Dave
Next With Dave I see I currently cover mine after every cook as it is outside on the porch I could see the surround being an issue. I plan on incorporating my griddle into an outdoor deck by the pool this winter might try a hard cover till then and then I could leave a surround up. Anyway great videos and love the simple things you come up with!!
Nice Mod!
Thanks!
Dave ,Where did u find the steel rings for your scrambled eggs?
William. Thanks for watching. I made those rings but recommend you use the largest store bought rings you can find. I put a link to some great rings in the description section of that video. Thanks, Dave
👍👍✌️
You need to fasten that leg support as a small kick or a movement of the grill the leg could come out and the sudden shift could cause a pot of hot liquid to off the burner. It would be terribly be a bad day if it was hot oil and it ignited. I would use to two legs fast to the support bars and a a locking pin I the support bars on the blackstone grill locking ut to the grill. Like the idea but as it is it is very unsafe. If you incorporate those suggestions I offered it will be a lot matter and much safer. I might even faster the burner to the shelf to keep any movement done that could cause a pot to move with hot liquids especially hot oils.
Rick, thank you for your your input. Please note that when you tighten the screws below the rail receivers you do lock the shelf to the unit. I agree that two supports would be better than one and you could permanently attach them to the shelf. However, my experience so far has been that the shelf is sufficiently supported. That is, it is sufficiently supported for my use and conditions. As I said in the video, I’m showing how I did it to give you an idea so you can set up your own system which you feel best suits your situation. Each person is responsible for their own design, installation and safety. Again, thank you for your comment. I’m sure others will benefit from the discussion.
MY main concern is if your using the right most burner on high the heat from it could overtime cause that hose to leak and lead to an unfortunate accident.
I understand your concern. In the video, I have the burner on the griddle, on a wooden board for display purposes only. It should be obvious that the burner is not meant to be used in that location while the griddle is turned on. I go to great lengths to show the burner is meant to be used on the the side shelf. At that location the hose is secured to the bottom shelf and loops from left to right around to enter the burner from the right side. Away from the griddle plate and burners. While not impossible for wear to occur, it is improbable. Like many tools we work with, common sense and due diligence is required for safe use. This is exactly why I state that you are responsible for your own safety. Thank you for watching and your concern. This discussion can serve as instruction for others who choose to make these modifications.
@@NextWithDave how is it holding up after 2 years?
Actually, I sold that griddle a few months ago but at the time it was working great with no signs of wear.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Where’d the surround go? 🥺
Hi Phillip. Well...I sold the original griddle with surround last year to a subscriber. Picked this one up and haven't felt the need to put a surround on it. Used to cook for more people so the surround helped but now it's just me and the boss lady so I'm good with the side shelves. Good catch. Very observant. Thanks for watching and for taking time to comment. Dave
Shaky at best. 👎
