We've used this griddler for a variety of items including steak, fish, vegetables th-cam.com/users/postUgkxMcXT6_MuT0hB3ejyGQQHaeof9bwoWPUf and mushrooms and it's been great! Gets that great smokey flavor when using high heat or sear. The grill works amazingly simple and very low smoke for what it is. Heat gets up fairly quick, especially on closed position. The griddler side is fairly simple, better for eggs and pancakes rather than any cooking. Use the flat plates with the grill side if needed.Cleanup is easy and having heat on both sides is great for cooking a large amount or panini press.This definitely gets hot though so be careful with the sides.
I remember when I was in the Navy and I was cranking in the officer's Wardroom. One day, the cook that was assigned to that galley was on Fog watch and we didn't have a cook at the start of breakfast. So I took charge of the cooking and started serving breakfast to all the officers. There was this one JG who was 7'2" and about 315lbs who wanted a 12 egg omelette w/everything on it. Even though the LPO said only 3 eggs per order, since he was an officer and I was enlisted, I proceeded that as a direct order and made him the 12 egg omelette. I wrapped that omelette with all the toppings in it like it was a burrito and served it to him. Man, he ate the whole omelette in under 15 mins. After he was done, he came in the kitchen to tell me that was the best omelette he has ever eaten and give me a bravo. Then went to my department head and asked them to give me a great evaluation that help me get promoted to Petty Officer 3rd Class. So I said to the officer, "If I ever open up a restaurant, I will name that omelette after him." His name is LTJG Peterson from off the USS Shreveport LPD-12, from the '02-'03 time frame. The omelette will be called the "Mr. Peterson Omelette."
Wow, awesome story. First of all thank you for your service and second of all sounds like you had an EPIC cook... Sounds like a future video for me but I need to get a bigger Blackstone lol... Thanks Martin!!!
@@martymar2982 Great story, Marty. I started cranking down in the enlisted mess and ended up in the wardroom, too. Not only did the officers get to benefit from me making them late night sandwiches and other treats, but I also ended up gaining about 10-15 lbs., too. We had an MS that didn't get along with a few of the officers, so there were some colorful things he did to some of the salads and the XO's glass of milk. No one was hurt or got sick, so everything was fine. That was back in the 80s, so it was a different time. Those sorts of things probably wouldn't fly, today. Anyway, thanks for sharing your story and rekindling some fun memories. Take care, shipmate.
I ran into a guy from bootcamp who's a MS for flag mess. He wanted to send his mom some footage of him on the roof (flight deck) in turn for hooking me up with Spanish omelets for a week. He got his flight deck footage and I got my omelets. V-4 Flight deck. U.S.S. Carl Vinson. '96-'98.
A couple things you might like. Turn the support table around 180 degrees with lettering on the backside, you can use the side table without having the gas hose over it. Also, if you stir some shredded cheese into the eggs after whisking, they do not spread as much when you pour them. I’m hungry now!
Your right, the prep work is not any fun, but the game is what it is about!!! That Omelette was LOADED for sure, just the way I like it!!!! Great job!!
Liked the video yeah you went over board but atleast you had enough for your wife like to see more videos and i would love to have a grill as such.. I am a owner of iron skillets myself love cooking on them thank you!!
BigCat, humdinger! Peppercorn bacon, new and interesting. And that sizzle on the Blackstone.. that's a call to every greedy cook and eater on the planet. Consider us called.. great breakfast. Thank you Mike for starting the day so wonderfully. 👍👍
Outstanding! Never too big for breakfast! I agree that stainless steel drywall knives are lightweight to pack and easy to use on the 22" portable griddle. Gotta try the peppercorn bacon!
LOL! That bad boy should have been a 6 egg omelet! I thought there was no way all that was going to come close to folding, but here you are making it happen.
Thanks Mike, it definitely was a gut buster LOL. Your channel name reminded me of two things. 1. I need to go fishing!! 2. I need to make a fish video on the Blackstone!!! Thanks brother!!! 🐯
Food looks great ! One question, I saw the hose that goes to the regulator where I am guessing a small propane bottle goes, is the hose going to the larger lp bottle available from Blackwood or commercially available ?
Thanks for the tip on pouring the eggs slow! I know it seems like common sense but I just dump them on there and I have eggs going every which way super fast, you would think something like that would be common sense but I just started making omelettes on my griddle and it hadn't crossed my mind. Keep up the good cookin, that omelette looks great!
Thanks David, I'm with you... I've learned a lot since I started cooking on my griddle. The good thing is you are always learning and getting better, you just have to use it lol... Appreciate you stopping by...
I can tell you right now without even looking back at the video I did not keep it at one temperature. I usually raise or lower the temperature minimally to adjust to the way the food is cooking. For example, if the bacon is taking too long I will turn it up a little. If the sausage is cooking too quickly I will turn it down a little. Potatoes always take a little bit longer to cook through and eggs I like to cook at a medium low temperature. I adjust the temperature while cooking probably more than I need to but that's just me. There are plenty of cooks that keep it on one cooking temperature and move the food around as necessary. I know I went on a rant but as long as you are in control there is no right or wrong way to cook. Just make sure you know what's happening with the food and adjust as necessary. This is the fun part of cooking for me.
Anytime i cook breakfast on the 22" it seems like low is still too hot, dont have much time to mess around making dippy eggs. Do you keep yours on low too?
I don't have my 22" anymore but yes I used to use the low setting as medium and the medium setting as high. Just like any griddle you need to figure out the odds and ends...
All right you did it! I’m making an omelette this afternoon on my 22 inch Blackstone. The omelette looked awesome! I think I’m going to use a couple more eggs and little less stuffing though. I know it’s going to be a wrestling match with the eggs running all over the place but I’ll try it
One challenge with runny things, like eggs, is getting the griddle as level as possible. Took me a while to reach the point where mine was level to my satisfaction (I'm notoriously anal retentive), but I found that a couple of washers of the right size and thickness placed under the griddle on the attaching legs did the trick.
Thanks Alan. If you leave any tomato residue on for too long it absolutely will. I am very adamant about cleaning my griddle and putting a light coal of oil on it right after I am done cooking for every cook.
Thanks Chris, it's been a while since I made this video and I've gotten a lot better informing everyone of what temps I'm cooking at. For this one I would say I started the griddle at medium (375-425) and dropped it to medium low (350-375) for the eggs. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!!!
Thanks brother, been very happy with the 22" so far. I've had it for 1.5 years and cook on it all the time obviously. I just got the 28" Adventure and so far so good. I'm like you, like to do the homework first. If you have any questions let me know. Thanks for watching and the comment!!
I'm watching your channel to learn how to cook on the Blackstone. The WALTWINS recommended you. They are the best at explaining things. I'm looking forward to watching you cook. You certainly know what your doing.
@@cookingwithbigcat Your cooks are official. I am trying to watch them all. It is easy to see you enjoy cooking. My Blackstone is allowing me the opportunity to try and cook for the first time in my life. Your channel helps me learn so much. I only wish I was more domesticated. So thanks for responding it is greatly appreciated. Now I can cook for my wife. Ha ha
Awesomeness! I love breakfast on the Blackstone. Gridiron with fans! I get it! I do miss watching sports though. At least I have the Big Cat to watch. Way to push the envelope. Man that was HUGE!
Thank you for your reply Big Cat I ordered the 22” with the cover just in case I’m at the beach and it’s a bit windy. Don’t want a sandy SMASH burger. Lol
I thought you were gonna make several omelettes with all those toppings lol. Either way good save! I'm very interested in the Blackstone 22" or something like it. A grill like that would be a lot of fun....
Hi Big Cat that look's so good we love peppercorn bacon,so nice of you to cook for your wife!I've been looking at the the Blackstone griddle's , I can't wait to get one.
The first spatula would have worked fine. As long as they are stainless steel they will be ok. I use drywall tools all the time. Fantastic cook Mike, keep up the great work brother
I had the same issue with mine until I figured out what I was doing wrong. After you connect the hose to the tank and the Blackstone, open the gas nob very slowly until it is open. Then try to light and see how it works. What I was doing was opening the gas tank very fast and that was shutting down a regulator inside the valve. When you open the nob slowly it does not shut down the regulator. Let me know if that works. Thanks for watching!!
Thanks for the video. I just found you as well. I discovered Blackstone during the pandemic and it has been life-changing. I'm going to have to try an omelet on it tonight. We have chickens and can't eat enough eggs to keep up with the production. Maybe an omelet can help!
Say I've seen videos where the cook pours the eggs in square pattern (pour a little) to form a closed squared where you could the everything in and it will not run thru. Try it out it may work.
Great job, just a little safety advice. Not sure if you have noticed the heat coming from the side of the griddle or not, but it is very hot in the area over the attached tray (right side). You have your gas hose over the top of the tray right in the path of the heat. Try repositioning the regulator and bring the hose up in front of the tray, instead of from the back and over the tray. Just my 2¢.
Depends on what I am cooking. I usually keep it medium to low for most foods. Unless I am cooking a steak or something that needs to be browned/seared.
Believe it or not I get a lot of great cooking supplies from Ross at a great discount. I don't remember exactly where I got this one but probably there.
Cool vid, and great looking omelette. Just too darn much stuffing for me. I like a little more egg in the egg-to-stuff ratio! LOL And you even said you really pushed it this time. But seriously... you did a heck of a job with it, and man.... it looks good. I want to do one later this week.
Too funny, I'm with you when it comes to omelettes (less is more). However, people want to see more. With that being said I will definitely raise my egg to stuff ratio going forward especially when making one of these monsters lol... Thanks for stopping by!!!
@@cookingwithbigcat You gave the People what they want! Seriously... you did one heck of a job folding that bad boy, and keeping it together. That was MASSIVE! And you did a good job of explaining that this was way over the top - for quality TH-cam entertainment! Nice vid. I enjoyed it. You inspired me!
So, brand new to this and watching a lot of videos to see how this is done. One thing I've noticed on a lot of the videos is that temp management is important. I know locations can very so "high", "med" may not be the same, but a hint as to what temp things are cooking at would be helpful during the videos. Thanks for making these, love them so far.
Thanks Randall, I have heard the same feedback and need to find a way to implement the temps into the videos. Appreciate the feedback and you stopping by!!!
This looks amazing, just got a camper, in between this one and the 17 inch. I’m leaning towards the 17 just because we cook so little. My kids still eat Mac n cheese cups all the time 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Thanks Kevin. That's an easy one, get the 17" now and when your kids get a little bit older (next year) you have an excuse to upgrade to the newer and bigger model!!! 🍻
Your food looks really amazing and I like your videos but please tell us where your heat is set at. You obviously have a lot of experience using this cooker and knowing where your heat is set at would be a huge help......thanks again!
Thanks Michael, I have heard that before. I can tell you I really don't cook on higher heats too much unless I'm searing a steak or smashburger. Otherwise it's usually medium heat. Hope this helps...
LOL, let's see if I remember correctly. Onions = 1, Tomatoes = 2, Bacon = 3, Eggs = 4, Plate to eat = 5. I'm guessing but I would usually use paper plates for most of this stuff but real plates look better for the video. Trying to be professional LOL. 🐯
Nice demo! Wouldn't cooking the bacon whole and then cutting it after be easier, and cook the bacon more evenly? Also water makes eggs fluffy. Milk makes them more dense.
Either way for the bacon would work in my opinion and yours is the second comment I have heard recently about the water in the eggs. I will definitely give that a shot. Thanks for stopping by!!!
Big Cat that was GREAT!!! I tried this recipe and it worked (I LOVE to follow you on my new 22" Blackstone.) Here's my challenge to you. I live in Austin, TX. From Charleston S.C. (East Coast like you.) My family likes my Seafood and Crab Omelettes. PLEASE show me how you would do it on The Blackstone Griddle???
I have a crab cake, lobster, and shrimp scampi videos but not a seafood omelette. I LOVE seafood but I'm the only one in my household who does so I don't make it too much. I still want to do a Scallops video and could get pretty creative with the Omelette. Now you've got me brainstorming. Stay tuned!!!
Love your videos.. don't pile your sausage, bacon or veggies in the center of the egg..instead sprinkle it evenly on the egg, don't try to add everything, use less or make more eggs, then fold your omelette, will have a perfect omelette...Enjoy Mr Big Cat
Big Cat, I know you like to make pizzas. Have you ever had a Pizza Omelet? I make them all the time, but not on my 22" yet (just picked it up today). I usually put pepperoni, mushrooms, black olives, mozzarella cheese and pizza sauce on it. There's a lot of videos out there, but you might want to put your twist on it. Just found your channel and am really enjoying your videos. Ron
Just found your channel. Great job. I’ve had my 36 inch Blackstone for a couple of years and absolutely love it. One question though: did you turn off your burners when you put down the eggs? I’ve been following Hussy and Tovin for a couple of years and I’m definitely adding you to my list. Keep up the good work.
Looks delicious Big Cat. I thought you'd recently gotten a 28" blackstone. Do you prefer the 22"? I have a 22" and I love it but wouldn't mind having a bigger one
Thanks for the comment David. I have my new 28" at a different location. I will be doing videos on both depending where I am but my 22" is still my go to. I've only cooked on the 28" a handful of times so the jury is still out. I like it so far though.
Sunlight coming through the sun sail really enhance the color of the food on your Blackstone. It look like your had at a warm filter on your camera lens.
I have a 22" and think sometimes I should have gone bigger. Only if you have a large family. 22" has plenty of room. Plus you can tell the neighbors you can't make enough.
I don't know if I missed this part, but did you turn down the heat for the eggs? We tried eggs and they cooked so fast, we overcooked them. Also I didn't think you were going to put all the toppings in. I thought you were saving some for the next one 😂.. That was massive but looked soo good! Thanks for the video. Subscribed 👍
LOL thanks for the comment. Yes I am very careful about not having the heat too high for eggs. I would rather cook them a little slower, you can't go backwards...

That's awesome, you're going to love it!!!
I followed your step by step and boy, this was delicious…. this was great thank you
GREAT!!! Thanks for watching!!
I really liked your showing of the pre-cook time way to go
Thanks Todd, appreciate the comment!!!
Yea ty.
A couple things you might like. Turn the support table around 180 degrees with lettering on the backside, you can use the side table without having the gas hose over it. Also, if you stir some shredded cheese into the eggs after whisking, they do not spread as much when you pour them.

Great tips, thanks Kevin!!!
I'm gonna try that cheese tip. Ty
Your right, the prep work is not any fun, but the game is what it is about!!! That Omelette was LOADED for sure, just the way I like it!!!! Great job!!
Thanks Pop!!! I'm glad I only ate half, I would have been hurting for sure LOL...
Oh Heck Yeah!.......OMELETTE FULLY LOADED nicely done my brother. You and the family stay safe and have a wonderful weekend.
Thanks brother, you too!!!
I like to use sliced cheeses because it lays flat on yer omlelet and allows you to overfill it with more other stuffings so ya can't wrap it! 😄
I hope you’re going to share that with a couple of people, maybe a whole family.
LOL yeah did not eat this by myself...
Super yummy, great job my friend, i’m going to do it myself exactly like this, thank you.
Liked the video yeah you went over board but atleast you had enough for your wife like to see more videos and i would love to have a grill as such.. I am a owner of iron skillets myself love cooking on them thank you!!

Way yummy, mrs big cat will love it
Oh she did lol... Thanks Dame!!!

Thanks Mona!!!
That is a monster omelette, can't wait to put my Blackstone together, I also got the 22" because its just the 2 of us, that looks good
Thanks Tracy, appreciate you!!!
m going to cook omelette, regular eggs, bacon, sausage, and hashbrowns on my griddle grill.
Outstanding! Never too big for breakfast! I agree that stainless steel drywall knives are lightweight to pack and easy to use on the 22" portable griddle. Gotta try the peppercorn bacon!
Thanks Brendan!!!
Excellent video in you gave a couple really nice tips with the sausage and the Tomato great job keep the good videos coming
Thanks Roger!!!
Really enjoying your videos. Loved the fried chicken and gravy video.
Thanks Karen, I appreciate you stopping by. Yeah the chicken came out pretty dang good lol...
LOL! That bad boy should have been a 6 egg omelet! I thought there was no way all that was going to come close to folding, but here you are making it happen.

Great channel. My wife and I camp alone. What brand and size would you recommend for us. Also, how hard is it to clean them?
I prefer Blackstone because that is what I'm used to but any brand will work. I would say 17"-22" for camping and they are very easy to clean.
Don't know if I just didn't hear you. But at what temperature did you cook all this at? Did you keep it at the same temperature the entire time?
I can tell you right now without even looking back at the video I did not keep it at one temperature. I usually raise or lower the temperature minimally to adjust to the way the food is cooking. For example, if the bacon is taking too long I will turn it up a little. If the sausage is cooking too quickly I will turn it down a little.

@@cookingwithbigcat LOL... You just wait til tomorrow at 730am PST
Won’t cooking tomatoes on the griddle remove the seasoning?
Thanks Alan. If you leave any tomato residue on for too long it absolutely will. I am very adamant about cleaning my griddle and putting a light coal of oil on it right after I am done cooking for every cook.
i need to know the temperature of the griddle when you start

Where did u get the large spatula
Thanks Barbara. I got it in one of those kits that has like 15 pieces in it. It really comes in handy...
The story comes to mind about the "10 pounds of 'Stuff" in a 5 pound sack" Looks like a winner anyway.....
Awesomeness! I love breakfast on the Blackstone. Gridiron with fans! I get it! I do miss watching sports though. At least I have the Big Cat to watch. Way to push the envelope. Man that was HUGE!
Thank you for presenting a good video. Most people on Cook channels do not present their self the way that you do. Excellent thank you
So do you think the hood is necessary?
Thanks Rene, I actually rarely use the hood on the 22" because there is such a large air gap. That is why I'm always using the domes...
Thank you for your reply Big Cat I ordered the 22” with the cover just in case I’m at the beach and it’s a bit windy. Don’t want a sandy SMASH burger. Lol
I thought you were gonna make several omelettes with all those toppings lol. Either way good save! I'm very interested in the Blackstone 22" or something like it. A grill like that would be a lot of fun....
Thanks Jeff, they are a lot of fun for sure!!!
Try it without milk in the eggs. The milk may make eggs fluffy it also weakened the structure
Thanks Trevor, I will definitely try it that way. Appreciate you stopping by!!!
can't believe you saved it there at the end, good job - gotta get me one of those giant spatz!
Thanks Nic, couldn't have done it without the giant spatula lol...

Say I've seen videos where the cook pours the eggs in square pattern (pour a little) to form a closed squared where you could the everything in and it will not run thru. Try it out it may work.
I'll give it a shot, thanks for watching and the tip!!!
Great job, just a little safety advice. Not sure if you have noticed the heat coming from the side of the griddle or not, but it is very hot in the area over the attached tray (right side). You have your gas hose over the top of the tray right in the path of the heat. Try repositioning the regulator and bring the hose up in front of the tray, instead of from the back and over the tray. Just my 2¢.
Safety first for sure!!! Thanks Harry I really appreciate the tip. To your point it does get hot as I've melted a water bottle before lol...
What temp settings do you use?
Depends on what I am cooking. I usually keep it medium to low for most foods. Unless I am cooking a steak or something that needs to be browned/seared.
Where could I get that cutting board?
Believe it or not I get a lot of great cooking supplies from Ross at a great discount. I don't remember exactly where I got this one but probably there.
You should try a grilled cheese with garlic butter. Yumm
That sounds interesting!!! Thanks Francis!!
@@cookingwithbigcat you are welcome
Cool vid, and great looking omelette. Just too darn much stuffing for me. I like a little more egg in the egg-to-stuff ratio! LOL And you even said you really pushed it this time. But seriously... you did a heck of a job with it, and man.... it looks good. I want to do one later this week.
Too funny, I'm with you when it comes to omelettes (less is more). However, people want to see more. With that being said I will definitely raise my egg to stuff ratio going forward especially when making one of these monsters lol... Thanks for stopping by!!!
@@cookingwithbigcat You gave the People what they want! Seriously... you did one heck of a job folding that bad boy, and keeping it together. That was MASSIVE! And you did a good job of explaining that this was way over the top - for quality TH-cam entertainment! Nice vid. I enjoyed it. You inspired me!
So, brand new to this and watching a lot of videos to see how this is done. One thing I've noticed on a lot of the videos is that temp management is important. I know locations can very so "high", "med" may not be the same, but a hint as to what temp things are cooking at would be helpful during the videos. Thanks for making these, love them so far.
Thanks Randall, I have heard the same feedback and need to find a way to implement the temps into the videos. Appreciate the feedback and you stopping by!!!
Looks yummy
It was gooood...
This looks amazing, just got a camper, in between this one and the 17 inch. I’m leaning towards the 17 just because we cook so little. My kids still eat Mac n cheese cups all the time 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Thanks Kevin. That's an easy one, get the 17" now and when your kids get a little bit older (next year) you have an excuse to upgrade to the newer and bigger model!!! 🍻
Woah 😮 I’ll have Max, Daisy, and Dawn try YOUR omelette and see if it’s delicious.
Your food looks really amazing and I like your videos but please tell us where your heat is set at. You obviously have a lot of experience using this cooker and knowing where your heat is set at would be a huge help......thanks again!
Thanks Michael, I have heard that before. I can tell you I really don't cook on higher heats too much unless I'm searing a steak or smashburger. Otherwise it's usually medium heat. Hope this helps...
TH-cam recommended this video after I binge watched a few waltwins black stone cooking videos... glad I found your channel!
Thanks Rayy Bayy!! I love the Waltwins and have connected with them a few times. Appreciate you stopping by!!!
Great video! How many dishes did you use for prep? 😆👍👍
LOL, let's see if I remember correctly. Onions = 1, Tomatoes = 2, Bacon = 3, Eggs = 4, Plate to eat = 5. I'm guessing but I would usually use paper plates for most of this stuff but real plates look better for the video. Trying to be professional LOL. 🐯
What was that grill temp?
Thanks Justin. I cook most foods at medium to medium-high (375-400). The only time I go higher is when searing a steak. Appreciate the comment!!!
Looks delicious!
Thanks Keith!!!
Nice demo!
Wouldn't cooking the bacon whole and then cutting it after be easier, and cook the bacon more evenly?
Also water makes eggs fluffy. Milk makes them more dense.
Either way for the bacon would work in my opinion and yours is the second comment I have heard recently about the water in the eggs. I will definitely give that a shot. Thanks for stopping by!!!
Yea alittle overboard. The best thing to me was when u added milk to the eggs. I been doing that for 30 yrs. Makes them so much better. Good Job !
Makes them crumbly not good for an omelet.
😋so good looking!
Yeah, huge omelet, didn't think you would be able to close it, but, it doesn't matter, all the flavors are there!
Good looking omelet Big Cat
Thanks Brad, appreciate you!!!
Good Stuff!! Love an omelette!
Thanks David!!!
Big Cat that was GREAT!!! I tried this recipe and it worked (I LOVE to follow you on my new 22" Blackstone.) Here's my challenge to you. I live in Austin, TX. From Charleston S.C. (East Coast like you.) My family likes my Seafood and Crab Omelettes. PLEASE show me how you would do it on The Blackstone Griddle???
I have a crab cake, lobster, and shrimp scampi videos but not a seafood omelette. I LOVE seafood but I'm the only one in my household who does so I don't make it too much. I still want to do a Scallops video and could get pretty creative with the Omelette. Now you've got me brainstorming. Stay tuned!!!
@@cookingwithbigcat Love you my brother when I do it I will share with you!!!
Looks like you're trying to grow an acre of corn in a flower box there pard.
What temperature are you cooking at ???
loved this video! thank you
Cool video 305. Cheers.
Now that was an omlette! Probably needed about 4 more eggs for that much ingredients 😆
Thanks Lep, yeah my eggs to filling ratio was off a little LOL...
@@cookingwithbigcat
Hey it happens lol
I call it perfect Big Cat!
NICE, thanks Dianne!!!
No problem Big Cat keep up the good food and good work.
MOGUL.
Good stuff Big Cat!! Going to make the wife one of these for Mother’s Day! Thanks for the idea!
Thanks brother, hope it turned out great!!!
All that work was worth it wasn’t it? That looks wonderful
Thanks Kathy, it definitely was...
Omelet tip: Use water instead of milk for fluffiness. Scrambles with milk is fine. That's a lot of omelet fixings!
Thanks for the tip... Appreciate you...
Your videos are great 👍🏼 keep it up!!
Thanks brother, appreciate the awesome comment!!!
Love your videos.. don't pile your sausage, bacon or veggies in the center of the egg..instead sprinkle it evenly on the egg, don't try to add everything, use less or make more eggs, then fold your omelette, will have a perfect omelette...Enjoy Mr Big Cat
Thanks SweetBelizean Girl, appreciate the tip!! Thanks for stopping by and have a great Sunday!!!
I do hope you’re don’t mind me. Downloading your video. Thank you.
Great video big cat
Thanks Scott!!!
Looks good!
Thanks James!!! 🐯
My thoughts “too much is never enough” 😂, it’s perfect.
Thanks Jon, I agree now for sure!!!
awesome brother 👍
Thanks Hugh!!!
Big Cat, I know you like to make pizzas. Have you ever had a Pizza Omelet? I make them all the time, but not on my 22" yet (just picked it up today). I usually put pepperoni, mushrooms, black olives, mozzarella cheese and pizza sauce on it. There's a lot of videos out there, but you might want to put your twist on it. Just found your channel and am really enjoying your videos. Ron
Sounds interesting, I will have to check that out. Thanks Ron, appreciate you stopping by!!!
Now that's an omelette
Thanks Frank!!! Yeah it was pretty damn good!!!
Wahoo, that’s one monster omelette Mike! Amazed you managed to fold it and flip it, it was jam packed. Awesome job brother! Have a great weekend!
Thanks Charlie, you have a great weekend too. I'm sure we will run into each other LOL!!!
Just found your channel. Great job. I’ve had my 36 inch Blackstone for a couple of years and absolutely love it. One question though: did you turn off your burners when you put down the eggs? I’ve been following Hussy and Tovin for a couple of years and I’m definitely adding you to my list. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the comment. Hussey and I are youtube friends lol but I haven't met Todd yet. Both are good people!!!
YUM!! I think I gained 5lbs just watching this!!
LOL yes Norman this was a beast for sure. I only hate half LOL...
Looks delicious Big Cat. I thought you'd recently gotten a 28" blackstone. Do you prefer the 22"? I have a 22" and I love it but wouldn't mind having a bigger one
Thanks for the comment David. I have my new 28" at a different location. I will be doing videos on both depending where I am but my 22" is still my go to. I've only cooked on the 28" a handful of times so the jury is still out. I like it so far though.
Sunlight coming through the sun sail really enhance the color of the food on your Blackstone. It look like your had at a warm filter on your camera lens.
I have a 22" and think sometimes I should have gone bigger. Only if you have a large family. 22" has plenty of room. Plus you can tell the neighbors you can't make enough.
Holy crap Mike, that's a hell of an omelet, almost need 2 plates to lay it across..lol. great video brother, thanks for sharing, Stay safe!👍
Thanks Craig!!! It was definitely loaded LOL!!!
I don't know if I missed this part, but did you turn down the heat for the eggs? We tried eggs and they cooked so fast, we overcooked them. Also I didn't think you were going to put all the toppings in. I thought you were saving some for the next one 😂.. That was massive but looked soo good! Thanks for the video. Subscribed 👍
LOL thanks for the comment. Yes I am very careful about not having the heat too high for eggs. I would rather cook them a little slower, you can't go backwards...
