Thank you for including the surface temperature using the IR temp gun. Inexpensive tool nowadays and I feel most TH-camrs neglect to mention the heat level.
Thank you friend finally somebody showing a real griddle instead all them fancy ones can't cook pancakes for crap on a griddle this got ribs in it I'll be ordering more of these tomorrow and the copper diffuser once again thank you for the video thumbs up and I'll subscribe
Thanks for sharing! Most people use a scoop of some kind, but I've been using a condiment bottle like you for a long time. I think it started with me wanting to draw shapes for my kids when they were little... I don't have a copper diffuser nor a griddle.. I do have carbon steel and cast iron pans, so I think that's good enough to do a number of pancakes at the same time. If I wanted more space, I could take out a portable / camping stove of some sort and stick another iron pan on that thing for cheap.
Thank you, I was looking for a way to utilize my gas stovetop more efficiently - right now I get a lot of hot spots if trying to cook at low temp. I just bought 2 of the diffusers from your links above as well as the carbon steel Lodge griddle. Would have taken hours for me to find a combo that fits. Also thanks for the egg white tip.
Now your talking my language. Try ghee butter with scattered brown (or white) sugar, and it makes a caramelized and buttery surface for crispy sweet cakes at the same time.
Good morning. I have a griddle almost exact to yours. It is a very heavy in weight. Well over 10 lbs. 18"x12". I bought it at a mexican market with no box. I am trying to determine if it is carbon steel. I want to season it but I made the mistake of heating it on my glass top stove and the pan got these circular hot spots. Cannot get them clean. I have tried boiling water and SOS pad, brillo etc. I want to clean it to season it correctly. Any advice?
So glad you’re posting vids again! This was helpful- I’d never heard of copper diffusers before! Now I might finally be able to use a griddle on my glass top stove. Several reviewers of the carbon steel griddle on Amazon mention their griddles warping (which would render it unusable on my cooktop); do you have any tips for avoiding that happening, or is it just a risk we have to take due to manufacturing variations? Thanks so much for this, and all your great vids!
This griddle was actually designed to be used outdoors, not on the stove. People who have had warping are heating the piece too quickly, according to someone I spoke with at a Lodge store. I have had mine for a long time now and have never had an issue.
The Culinary Fanatic THANKS so much for your helpful and speedy reply! I think that griddle + the copper diffusers will be my next cookware investment! (And I’ll be sure to pre-heat it SLOWLY 😉👍🏾).
I have a griddle but it's so heavy so I started looking for reviews on the lodge and just like that Poof you show up! My go to for honest opinion on all things cookware. So I have to ask did you leave the seasoning on this since it's carbon steel or did you strip it and do your own like on your CI? I know this is old so If you don't see this no biggie
I have the pro-logic griddle. Did I read you right that the diffusers won’t work with it? Love the cooking area but I’m stuck making two pancakes or just using my 10.5” griddle and one at a time.
Using an infrared thermometer. Definitely a pro-tip. I personally have a (relatively) cheap handheld thermal imaging device from FLIR that lets me visualize hotspots.
Hi Jeffrey, I’ve been following you here on TH-cam and Instagram for a few years. Thanks for all of the info on cast iron. One thing I’ve never been sure about is how to prevent warping when using cast iron on the stove. I currently have a glass cooktop and am afraid to use any of my vintage pieces for fear of warping them. Are there proper preheat and use guidelines for using cast iron on the stove? I’d hate to damage my pieces. Thanks again!
How can you say they were perfect when you flipped them ? It sounded like each one went ' bang ' ? Hahah had to say it . I have a Blackstone griddle just havent used it yet .
Cast iron will heat evenly if you give it time. He's using copper diffusers because he is NOT using cast iron; he clearly states and it is obvious by looking that he's using a carbon steel griddle, which is thinner and lighter than a cast iron griddle.
@@TheCulinaryFanatic I don't see the recipe in the description. Would you mind sharing the recipe please? Those pancakes were perfect my friend! Kudos to you!!!
Thank you for including the surface temperature using the IR temp gun. Inexpensive tool nowadays and I feel most TH-camrs neglect to mention the heat level.
those are the best looking pancakes i've seen yet, great job Jeff. I'm starting to like my carbon steel better than my cast iron.
Thanks for the video. Nice to see you here on TH-cam. I got so excited when I saw that you posted a new video.

Those pancakes really did look perfect.
Good to see you back making videos
O MY GOD, SO GOOD TO SEE YOU BACK, PERFECT PANCAKES, LOOKING GOOD AND THANKS 👍
I tried the link for the diffusers but it’s not working, prob cause it’s old. Are the diffusers two circular ones or one big one?
Technique is everything
Together we can share that we want to see more cooking during Pandemic. Awesome video.
Now your talking my language. Try ghee butter with scattered brown (or white) sugar, and it makes a caramelized and buttery surface for crispy sweet cakes at the same time.
Oh man!! That sounds amazing!!
Do that on a waffle iron too and use that large crystal sugar . Like the Belgium style Liege ..
I am so glad to see you making videos again!
Pancake recipe please? The look delicious! I’d love to try marking them. Thanks
2nd video I found of yours and they are too the point, informative and enjoyable to watch. Thanks
Those do look perfect! I'll have to try beating the eggs before mixing. Thanks for sharing!
Volusia-ev - Only beat the egg whites. Add the yolks to the other wet ingredients.
Will you please show us the diffusers? How do you use them? Where do you place them? Thank you 🙏
How to season carbon steel griddle out of the box before use and Can I use on my glass top stove and does it heat and cook like cast iron? Love it
Haven't had pancakes in a while, those sure made me crave them. Yum!

they will never come off, but they dont need to come off lol. Just clean it normally and season it
Wow, you took pancakes to the next level man!
Can you please do a video on how to season your carbon steel? Thanks
Hi, thanks for the video.
I was wondering what stainless steel spatula you are using to flip that pancake over.
Thanks

I spy sausage in the background. A perfect companion to pancakes and syrup.
Bisquick pancakes are the best, Thank you for the video.
looks great thanks - my question though is, do you have different size burners under there?
Does Carbon Steel require seasoning? How do I care for it? Thank you in advance.

You should put together a cast iron cookbook
Perfect flapjacks brother. Have you used the cast iron version from lodge? Can’t decide between the pair
Those flapjacks are perfect.
Beating the egg white DOES make a difference in the “rise”..... Tnx 4 the tip, Jeff!
and I also like the condiment ‘squeezy’ delivery system.....
@Kam Mike Baking soda will have you farting

Can someone tell me the pros and cons of carbon steel vs cast iron? I can’t find anything on the internet comparing the two directly!
Please update the link for the copper diffusers. Not sure what it is
Does this carbon steel griddle works on electronic coil stove top?
wow - flawless flapjacks!
Wooow beautiful fluffy pancakes 🥞 💕
Have you ever tried lemon juice? Makes them really good.
Nice. Have you tried Krusteez? I'm not sure which I like better, Bisquick or Krusteez.
Robert Rockwell - You know, I see that mix every time I buy Bisquick. My sister-in-law swears by it. I will have to give it a try.
Are the copper defusers just copper plates?
Jenny Swenson - Yes.
Very nice Jeff 👍😀
I’m interested in the diffuser.
Can you use that griddle in the oven?
Perfect job - great presentation
One more question: do you heat the diffusers BEFORE you place the griddle on them, or just pre-heat them slowly together at the same time? Thanks!
Is the griddle large enough to cook six pancakes at once?

How thick are the copper defusers?
toddlfrank 1/8” thick
@@TheCulinaryFanatic can you use copper defusers on glass top stove?
That's a good idea using copper because with cast iron you don't get even heat distribution

dat boi Jeff done it again yeeeeee
Awesome pancakes. Love that spatula too. What brand is that?
Paul Calabrese That is a Guy Fieri spatula that was given to me as a gift.
Thank you :-)
Beautiful color on those. Do you work for Lodge?
Judges say 10 (USA), 10 (UK), 9.9 (French) what did you expect ; )
What are defuses? Would you please show what they are?
No picture of the copper diffusers
Got to get one. I'm convinced.
