Hi Johnny. I'm in Canada and when I try to purchase it, it keeps saying something wrong with the address and doesn't let me purchase it. Since it's an e-book why would it matter about my address. Can you clarify?
Thanks Johnny. I ended up using Apple pay and it worked. Looks great. We got snow here in Canada on April 19 and with a new grill waiting to be used I'm super anxious. I'll check out your book and be ready when I can hit the griddle.
@@1962pgb hey just saw this. I'm sorry I don't know why it didn't work initially but I'm glad apple pay worked. Thank you so much for buying it I really appreciate it. And congratulations on the new griddle you'll love it! We just got snow in Ohio yesterday, I don't know what's going on! It's ok though we'll all be making fries rice and smash burgers soon enough.
Dude, I know this video is a year old and you probably won’t see this but I just wanted to let you know what a fantastic video this was on grilling. Never been a grilling guy although I’m looking at getting a flat top and trying my hand at it, your explanations were fantastic and I love the snap shot you had of the temperature gradients that you use and what to cook on them..super helpful.
Hey thanks so much for watching and for the kind words. I'm glad you found it helpful and I hope you get a flat top I love mine. I have all sorts of videos on temp control, cleaning, maintenance, ext.... So if you get one don't hesitate to ask a question and Id be happy to answer. I try my best to answer all comments. Have a good one.
People with a narcissistic and self aggrandizing personality gravitate toward management positions. They love to hear themselves talk and think every word is pivotal on the success of whoever and whatever they manage. Truth is... about 5% to 10% is worth a $hit the rest is their self inflating ego. This is just the facts of living in a cubicle farm.
Thanks, this was Gracie. She was a Beagle/Jack mix and a very smart girl. Always got comments on her and how beautiful she was. She was with me for 16 wonderful years and I still miss her. @@JohnnyBrunet
@@smoothandchunky1 I bet she was great. I'm sorry she passed. Sounds like you were very lucky to have her in your life. Thanks for sharing. I need to hug our Murphy today and appreciate him while I can.
I’m 28 and my younger cousin surprised me with a black stone griddle for my birthday. I couldn’t have been more shocked because all I expected from the guy was a handshake. Well anyway your videos will really help me pay him back. And the “check your ego” attitude you have is wonderful. Need more people like you. Thanks and keep cookin!
That's awesome that's a very nice gift from your cousin. I think some smash burgers or cheese steaks would be a great way to pay him. And thanks so much I'm glad you like the videos and the style I present them in. I really appreciate you watching.
Thanks so much Im glad you found it helpful. That's a very nice gift from your son, Im sure you'll love using it. Congratulations on the new griddle and thanks for watching.
How good is this guy!!! Best tutorial & instructional video on TH-cam without doubt. No bull💩💩💩 No blarney or nonsense.Ive liked & subscribed. Thank you very much indeed for taking the time to do this. Really very much appreciated....From Manchester Uk across the pond.
Hey Man thanks so much for watching! I'm really glad you liked it I try to keep it straight forward and to the point. That's crazy youre in Manchester I just always get surprised at how far these videos can reach. I really appreciate you taking time to watch and comment, have a good one brother.
I cooked in a restaurant for a few years, I don come back to our Channel for accuracy or tips usually. However you are spot on man and I’ve leaned some things I didn’t know. Your beer comments are so much like me it’s amusing, also I see your surroundings and realize your just a normal dude and I got to support that. Keep it up man great channel
Thanks I really appreciate you supporting me and watching the channel. Also gotta love another guy who knows the importance of staying hydrated! Cheers buddy 🍻
Thank-you very much. Just waiting to install the new griddle and know nothing! I even printed out the temperature guide. Thanks for making this video. 😀
Just won my first griddle, being delivered today. Excellent video my friend. Not only fantastic information, but delivered in great fashion. Removes a ton a apprehensions built up while waiting for it. Buying your ebook as a show of appreciation for you posting. I’ll be giving this video a shout out and link on my channel as I do a video using my griddle for the first time at my off grid cabin.
Congrats on winning a griddle thats awesome! Thank you so much for buying the e book all proceedes this month are going towards childrens hospital here in Columbus Ohio. Thanks so much for giving my channel a shout out and let me know if you have any questions. You have a super cool channel I watched a few videos and enjoyed them.
Thank you for this. Just got my first blackstone and been watching videos. Temps are the one thing no one ever talks about in their videos. These were the exact things I was wondering about. Got a sub from me.
Found this channel and love the delivery and low key humor (and the information too). Ordered a griddle through a liquidation website, so I am keeping my fingers crossed that I see it before next Christmas.
Thanks so much! Jabba the Catt is an amazing name btw. I'm really glad you like the channel and find it helpful. Also I hear you about the liquidation thing lol. I've don't that before too, there's some great prices but you just don't know when you'll get it.
Thank you so much for making this video. I just purchased a flat top and I haven’t used it yet but I wanted to be better equipped and none of these channels that spend all their time cooking on flat grills have a video to introduce you. Thank you again 🤝
I’ve been frustrated AF today (4th of July) getting my griddle ready to cook (haven’t used it in forever). Then you gave me the magic tip I was missing out on….beer. I wasn’t drinking enough beer. Thanks for the tip sir.
Hey Todd congrats on the new griddle! I'm glad you liked my video and found it helpful. Your going to have a lot of fun this summer with that new griddle. Thanks for watching man.
Awesome! I hope it's helpful, that's how I do it and I just think it's the best way to learn. Not sure why others don't talk about it much. Thanks so much for watching.
Outstanding channel, Johnny! I bought a griddle about a month ago. I like your channel because you explain the zones, and why and where to put your food to cook. Other channels are like, "Look what I/we cooked! We're the kings of the griddle!" You seem to actually like to griddle. I know that I really like griddling now that I have one. Keep cranking out the videos, as they are fun to watch and very informative.
Hi Michael, thank you so much for the kind words. I'm so glad that you like the channel and find it helpful. That is my goal to help other people learn how to griddle not to show what I can do. Also congrats on the new griddle if you just got it. Have a good one buddy.
Thanks Joel glad you liked the video. Sometimes the camera makes the pancakes look better than they are but I'll still take a compliment when I get one hahaha. I appreciate you watching man.
Just had my 4 burner Blackstone delivered and found your videos. Thanks so much for making things simple and easy to understand. Look forward to getting the e-book and to checking out all of your videos.
Congratulations on the new griddle Rib! You're welcome for the videos thank you so much for watching them. I hope they're helpful and if you ever have questions don't hesitate to ask I'm happy to answer them. My first set of advice is make sure you grab a 6 pack for the seasoning process. It takes about an hour so you'll need to stay hydrated. 😁🍻
Ik this is an old video. But it still taught me stuff I had questions about. It took so much convincing to get my wife to get me an infrared thermometer. But I have so many different ones. Mostly for smoking meat. Since I usually smoke to temperature and not time. I have an instant read I use constantly. But the infrared is a must for cooking on a griddle. Very greatful she got it for me. But again. Knocked it out of the park. I hope to buy your ebook soon. I already have the free on on my phone. Thanks for the awesome vid brother. ❤🎉😊
Thanks Shawn I'm glad this one was helpful as well. Ya I feel like I beat the infrared thermometer into the ground but it is just so useful in my opinion.
Most people buy every gadget they can find at Walmart when they buy a griddle, You are right with essentials. I enjoy how yur videos are a decent length and still cover the topic completely. Have a good one.
Finally getting my first Blackstone grill here in a couple days. Loved your video on seasoning! Very entertaining and informative. Thanks for helping me get prepared!
I got the $30 lodge cast iron griddle for my birthday last week and I still used most of your videos to help! I seasoned it only once and I made some onion smash burgers.
Awesome! I have a lodge as well that's what I used before I bought a big outdoor one. It works out great, I bet your onion burgers were awesome. Thanks for watching.
Congratulations Jeffrey! They're a lot of fun there's just a small learning curve. If you ever have questions just ask, I got videos on a out everything you could want know about griddles. Thanks for watching man.
Man, your videos are so simple and yet really informative on the important stuff. Been griddling for a while but mainly shooting from the hip. These videos are really helpful!
I've been dying to grab a good griddle for a while. Bit the bullet today and can't wait to get started. Thanks a ton for a great easy to understand video.
Wow man I just picked up a griddle I'm a newbie at this but thanks to you and this video I feel everything is going to be alright 👍 and thanks for laying out what foods to cook at what Temps I'm definitely going to use that as a guide to how I'm going to grill if you happen to see this Thanks!!!!!
Hey Ron, congrats on the new griddle!! I'm glad this video was helpful man. Hopefully you'll be whipping up great meals in no time. I also have a free broom with the temperature chart on it and some recipes. Here's the link it will get you the ebook and sign you up for my weekly griddle newsletter. It's all free, thanks for watching man. mailchi.mp/johnnybrunet/icf3brlr2e
I have a steelmade oven top flat top bout to season and I had to sub after two of your vids. These are how youtube vids should be no bs, real straight to the point and very helpful Thanks brother! Cheers! 🍻
Hey Pete! Thanks so much for watching and I'm glad you like them. Ugh it's a rough time to be a cbj fan but the future looks good! We got some solid pieces to build on. People that are actually going to stay. I have hope.
Congratulations on the new griddle!! That's exciting cooking with your 15 year old. My son is only 1 and I can't wait to cook on the griddle with him. Ham and cheese sounds delicious, put some mustard on mine 😂
Recently was gifted a blackstone 2 burner griddle. Your videos are an absolute blessing! Thanks for taking the time to show us how its done! I was definitely getting overwhelmed with all the accessories i thought i needed 😅
Congratulations on the new griddle and I'm so happy that my videos have been helpful for you. I really appreciate you watching. And yes don't feel like you need to go out and buy 20 differ accessories. A spatula, tongs, and an infrared thermometer are all you need in my opinion.
I just assembled my 36-in Blackstone last night. I'm going to season mine this afternoon I just have to run to the store and grab some beer and remember the propane.thanks for the video I learned something
Congratulations on the new griddle Josh! I'm glad you learned something and thanks so much for watching. Ya don't forget that beer it's the most important thing 😁. You got some good meals coming your way. Let me know if you ever have any questions man. I don't mind answering them and I have videos in pretty much everything.
Hey thanks so much Leo I really appreciate you supporting me and I hope it's helpful. It's not the prettiest thing but I spent a lot of time putting everything I know in there so I'm glad you feel like it's worth it. That really makes my day.
Good info. Johnny, glad you said you were gonna drink the beer ,,, not pour it on your griddle because that would be considered alcohol abuse !!!!! Good job my friend,, THANK you Frank from montana. PS thanks for the shout out, ps can you come here and preseason my griddle ? We have lots of brewarys out here it probably will take a week to reseason it. Message my back anytime...
I just realized I had already all the accessories but I didn’t have a griddle….I even had the thermometer that we bought for the pandemic …so now that I bought the griddle today ( from sam’s club for $ 79) it is time to cook…the hardest thing to cook on a griddle most likely it would be eggs…I cooked hundreds and hundreds of eggs on different griddles until I was sick of it….yes that is what you do when you work the egg station in a restaurant…as far as the temperature on your griddle you have to learn where is your hot side and your warm side as you cook on it…I never used a thermometer in connection with a griddle in fact I never thought about connecting the two…bacon fat will season a griddle real good…
Hey John congrats on your first griddle! I know exactly where you are. my in-laws live in Johnstown, and my wife went to Big Walnut. Thanks so much for watching video man. I should try to sponsor the highschool out there so they can be the Johnstown Griddle with Johnny's 😂😂
@@JohnnyBrunet HA. That would be hilarious. YOu could set up at games and cook for the concession stand and do some advertising too. Multi-faceted marketing haha
For sure Jeff. I love my Big Green Egg for bbw and smoking but ya it has limits. The griddle is nice for easy stuff like a quick fried bologna sandwich.
Haha awesome! Thanks so much for watching and congratulations on the new griddle! Make sure you crack a few cold ones for me when you first fire it up.
You're the best, thanks for the share about your passion. I like the "organic" side of griddling that the first thing you do is Christen it and make it look not new. It is now yours. Not too many things in the digital age take breaking in. To season I started with canola oil because I had about 4-5 tablespoons left and wanted to use that up. After 2 cycles with that, I started using bacon strips, one at a time - the best griddle barometer I know of. I swished the slice around with the heat full bore. The first slice of bacon would have been inedible unless you came out of the woods starved for a week. I kept cycling thru bacon slices until it didn't stick anymore and sizzled like it should. It took me about 5-6 slices to get to a point where the bacon strip wasn't coming out all mangled and kind of sooty. I have a 17" portable griddle as my 90% goto cooking apparatus. As I got near the point of it almost being seasoned, I started testing with eggs. Just like the bacon, the first one stuck really bad to the griddle, and after about 4 more sacrificial eggs, I threw a little butter down and the egg danced like it should. So my test looks for the first edible bacon or egg come off, time to eat.
You're welcome thanks so much for watching and for the tips. Ya after I do a few coats of oil I like them throw down some bacon as well. That's always a good way to get your griddle ready to go.
Lol thanks Matt I appreciate you watching. Due to recent events I won't say anything about your preferences in football teams 😢. Thanks for watching buddy and we'll see you in late November!
Awesome. Start a restaurant. Consulting service the same. You are great. I hope you send your a video to the Food Network. Your onscreen personality is network broadcast Quality
Thank you so much for the kind words. I worked in Restuarants for long enough to know I want no part of running one lol. Lots of hours hahaha but also can be a lot of fun. Thank you for watching.
I just got a wet wash rag and wiped the gridle down good and then slapped a lbs of bacon on it cooked that and then while it was hot spread that bacon grease all around and all over the griddle. Let that cool and called it a day.
I can't imagine my electric bill if I kept my house at 70 here in Phoenix in the summer. I keep it at 77 and I still pay about $600 a month for electricity. Awesome videos by the way. New subscriber.
Hahaha ya that would be pretty difficult to do in Phoenix. $600 a month is insane I won't tell you what mine is in Ohio because I don't want you to get mad lol. Glad you like the videos and thanks so much for subscribing.
First time buyer getting this one. Blackstone Adventure Ready 2-Burner 22" Propane Omnivore Griddle with Flexfold Legs. Is there an attachment you can buy to put accessories or seasoning down?
@@JohnnyBrunet yeah man its physics, or something. Heat x Smoke + oil = 30% carbonation - inductive sperling ratio = the mass of square inches to consumption of malts. And my parents thought I was an idiot. 😆 Happy Easter bud!
Awesome David you won't regret it! I'm assuming by your pic that you might be doing meal prep. If you're doing a ton of chicken breast try searing them at 425 for about a minute and half per side. Then you can lower the temp down to 350 and let them finish cooking. I did like 12 chicken breast at once for a whole week of prep it was super easy.
Glad it was helpful for you! and you had your day in the sun last year, I'm feeling pretty good about the Bucks chances come november 26th. We'll see though. Thanks for watching

Literally the best guy to talk about this. Drink beer, do the bare minimum that produces premium results, and is a no bullshit guy. Subbed.

Your a good young man for this.kudos
Thanks Roderick.
Got my griddle today and seasoned it. Now my 15 yr old is getting ready for it's virgin cook. Grilled ham and cheese.
Congratulations on the new griddle!! That's exciting cooking with your 15 year old. My son is only 1 and I can't wait to cook on the griddle with him. Ham and cheese sounds delicious, put some mustard on mine 😂
Good stuff. I also love the Buckeyes, grilling and Cbus IPA. Cheers from Canton 😅
Heck ya buddy, go Bucks. And tha ks for watching.
Thank you so much for showing this video and please keep the video s coming I love seeing what you can cook on then thank you
Your welcome Flo, thank you so much for watching.
Your 15 recipes. Thanks. Had a griddle for two years. But was basic. Thanks for the tips
Your very welcome Roger thank you for watching.
We are going to Lowes to get a black stone griddle and accessories. Thanks for the e-book.💯
Yay! You are very welcome and congratulations on the new griddle. You have a great summer full of food meals coming your way.
If you have not seen his what & what not to buy watch it I wish I did befor I bought mine 😢 to save some money 😕
Recently was gifted a blackstone 2 burner griddle. Your videos are an absolute blessing! Thanks for taking the time to show us how its done! I was definitely getting overwhelmed with all the accessories i thought i needed 😅
Congratulations on the new griddle and I'm so happy that my videos have been helpful for you. I really appreciate you watching. And yes don't feel like you need to go out and buy 20 differ accessories. A spatula, tongs, and an infrared thermometer are all you need in my opinion.
I'm in mid michigan, if ever traveling thru I got brews for you haha. Buying the ebook now. Go Blue!!
Damn Joe wish I knew we took a family vaca to Traverse City last month! Thanks so much for the offer, you sound like a cool dude. For a *ichigan fan 😜
I just assembled my 36-in Blackstone last night. I'm going to season mine this afternoon I just have to run to the store and grab some beer and remember the propane.thanks for the video I learned something
Congratulations on the new griddle Josh! I'm glad you learned something and thanks so much for watching. Ya don't forget that beer it's the most important thing 😁. You got some good meals coming your way. Let me know if you ever have any questions man. I don't mind answering them and I have videos in pretty much everything.
I use an infrared thermometer inside too. I like any activity that involves beer btw.
I've used it inside as well on cast iron. And you can't go wrong with beer drinking activities. I've never fished before but I think I'd like it.
Super appreciate! This is gold. I'll buy yer book when I can:))
Don't love all the drinking, I'm recovering. But damn yo funny!!😂
I'm sorry but good for you for recovering. I'm glad you like the videos and find them funny.
Here's a free copy of my e-book, drive.google.com/file/d/18K4p21xpuwHV8Y5bw7JkIDhHNtf8IOoH/view?usp=drivesdk
Love your channel man, and ur funny as hell too 😂 Thanks for all the good tips and info 👍👍
Thanks you!
I was pretty sold on your channel already, then I seen Brutus. Subscribed
Heck yeah Adam, go Bucks!!! Thanks for watching and subing brother.
This is excellent for new as well as intermediate griddle cooks. Thank You!
You're welcome Diane I'm glad you found it helpful. Thanks so much for watching.
BTY, I just bought your e-book…well worth the price.
Hey thanks so much Leo I really appreciate you supporting me and I hope it's helpful. It's not the prettiest thing but I spent a lot of time putting everything I know in there so I'm glad you feel like it's worth it. That really makes my day.
Good info. Johnny, glad you said you were gonna drink the beer ,,, not pour it on your griddle because that would be considered alcohol abuse !!!!! Good job my friend,, THANK you Frank from montana. PS thanks for the shout out, ps can you come here and preseason my griddle ? We have lots of brewarys out here it probably will take a week to reseason it. Message my back anytime...
No beer abuse in my videos Frank! Ya a week long re seasoning sounds good to me!
Tips were very helpful. Thanks!
You're welcome Manuel, thanks for watching.
I just realized I had already all the accessories but I didn’t have a griddle….I even had the thermometer that we bought for the pandemic …so now that I bought the griddle today ( from sam’s club for $ 79) it is time to cook…the hardest thing to cook on a griddle most likely it would be eggs…I cooked hundreds and hundreds of eggs on different griddles until I was sick of it….yes that is what you do when you work the egg station in a restaurant…as far as the temperature on your griddle you have to learn where is your hot side and your warm side as you cook on it…I never used a thermometer in connection with a griddle in fact I never thought about connecting the two…bacon fat will season a griddle real good…
Congratulations on the new griddle and thanks for all the tips.
Just got my first griddle and have been trying it out. Shout out from Johnstown (20 mins from you).
Hey John congrats on your first griddle! I know exactly where you are. my in-laws live in Johnstown, and my wife went to Big Walnut. Thanks so much for watching video man. I should try to sponsor the highschool out there so they can be the Johnstown Griddle with Johnny's 😂😂
@@JohnnyBrunet HA. That would be hilarious. YOu could set up at games and cook for the concession stand and do some advertising too. Multi-faceted marketing haha
@@checkoutTinyHouseTravelers brilliant! Who wouldn't want a smash burger at halftime of a high school football game.
I'm gonna grab me up one these. Probably 2 burner cuz I'm single most nights. BBQ has limits. These blackstones do almost everything!
For sure Jeff. I love my Big Green Egg for bbw and smoking but ya it has limits. The griddle is nice for easy stuff like a quick fried bologna sandwich.
Same here.
New viewer here with a new griddle. I'm in my safe area here, lol, "I chose 6 beers". Here to stay sir!
Haha awesome! Thanks so much for watching and congratulations on the new griddle! Make sure you crack a few cold ones for me when you first fire it up.
You're the best, thanks for the share about your passion.
I like the "organic" side of griddling that the first thing you do is Christen it and make it look not new. It is now yours. Not too many things in the digital age take breaking in.
To season I started with canola oil because I had about 4-5 tablespoons left and wanted to use that up. After 2 cycles with that, I started using bacon strips, one at a time - the best griddle barometer I know of. I swished the slice around with the heat full bore. The first slice of bacon would have been inedible unless you came out of the woods starved for a week. I kept cycling thru bacon slices until it didn't stick anymore and sizzled like it should. It took me about 5-6 slices to get to a point where the bacon strip wasn't coming out all mangled and kind of sooty. I have a 17" portable griddle as my 90% goto cooking apparatus. As I got near the point of it almost being seasoned, I started testing with eggs. Just like the bacon, the first one stuck really bad to the griddle, and after about 4 more sacrificial eggs, I threw a little butter down and the egg danced like it should. So my test looks for the first edible bacon or egg come off, time to eat.
You're welcome thanks so much for watching and for the tips. Ya after I do a few coats of oil I like them throw down some bacon as well. That's always a good way to get your griddle ready to go.
Great info Johnny. Hey folks, I highly recommend Johnny's E-Book. I printed it out and keep it in one of my tool drawers for quick reference.
Thank you so much Todd for the positive referral. I really appreciate it buddy.
Thank you for this, would not have thought of the IR thermometer.
You're welcome, thanks so much for watching.
You rock! Thanks for the temp ratings! 🤠
You're welcome Brent, thank you for watching.
I love your videos. Great ideas an your knowledge. But i most certainly, after seeing that shirt I would say Go Blue! Again, love the videos bud!
Lol thanks Matt I appreciate you watching. Due to recent events I won't say anything about your preferences in football teams 😢. Thanks for watching buddy and we'll see you in late November!
Awesome. Start a restaurant. Consulting service the same. You are great. I hope you send your a video to the Food Network. Your onscreen personality is network broadcast Quality
Thank you so much for the kind words. I worked in Restuarants for long enough to know I want no part of running one lol. Lots of hours hahaha but also can be a lot of fun. Thank you for watching.
I just got a wet wash rag and wiped the gridle down good and then slapped a lbs of bacon on it cooked that and then while it was hot spread that bacon grease all around and all over the griddle. Let that cool and called it a day.
I can't imagine my electric bill if I kept my house at 70 here in Phoenix in the summer. I keep it at 77 and I still pay about $600 a month for electricity. Awesome videos by the way. New subscriber.
Hahaha ya that would be pretty difficult to do in Phoenix. $600 a month is insane I won't tell you what mine is in Ohio because I don't want you to get mad lol. Glad you like the videos and thanks so much for subscribing.
Another great video for newbies. Greet video Johnny. 👍
Thanks Jim!
Great explanation of zones brother
Thanks Benny! I really appreciate you watching.
Definitely gave me some Office Space vibes with that 1 hour meeting comment 😂😂
God I love that movie. It is honestly in my top 5 comedies and I take that list very seriously.
popcorn on the blackstone lol now ive seen it all. keep up the good work
Thanks!
First time buyer getting this one. Blackstone Adventure Ready 2-Burner 22" Propane Omnivore Griddle with Flexfold Legs.
Is there an attachment you can buy to put accessories or seasoning down?
3-6 beers, love it
Only way to do it.
Good info again brother. The bigger the griddle the more beers you’ll need for seasoning. For instance, my 22” took 6 beers. 🤪
Oh ya more griddle = more beer for sure.
@@JohnnyBrunet yeah man its physics, or something. Heat x Smoke + oil = 30% carbonation - inductive sperling ratio = the mass of square inches to consumption of malts. And my parents thought I was an idiot. 😆 Happy Easter bud!
@@LoveShackBBQ hahaha I'm going to put this on a shirt! happy Easter to you as well!
Just ordered an infrared thermometer.
Awesome David you won't regret it! I'm assuming by your pic that you might be doing meal prep. If you're doing a ton of chicken breast try searing them at 425 for about a minute and half per side. Then you can lower the temp down to 350 and let them finish cooking. I did like 12 chicken breast at once for a whole week of prep it was super easy.
Awesome info !
Thx man …..oh and 1 more thing……
GO BLUE 〽️!!!
Glad it was helpful for you! and you had your day in the sun last year, I'm feeling pretty good about the Bucks chances come november 26th. We'll see though. Thanks for watching
Great ideas. I love the videos. Oh yeah and drinking beer while cooking outside is a must..🍺Cheers.
Thanks Scott I'm glad you liked it and I appreciate you watching. Cheers buddy 🍻🍻
As always great info. Keepem coming
Thanks, will do!
This was well worth explained. Do I have to do it like this every time I’m gonna griddle for an event?
Nope you just need to do this once then it will build seasoning everytime you cook on it.
@@JohnnyBrunet so all I have to do is warm to the desire temperature and good to go.
@@ariesanfilippo1078 yes sir
As a first time griddle owner this is sound advice!
Coming from a traditional BBQ I'd have been burning everything to a crisp!
Awesome I'm so glad it was helpful, thanks for watching man.
My 2 fav teams
Heck ya buddy. Almost football season.
