I might end up doing the same thing! Love that griddle!

I picked up this exact model, $185 from Walmart. seasoned it with 6 thin coats of grapeseed oil, 15-min burnoff each. First cook was some Chinese sausage and game-changing smashburgers with sauteed onions. gonna smash onto diced onions next time. mayo on the rolls to brown them!

I got mine the other day and am loving it. We found one that had a damaged box so we only paid 100.00 for it. Once set up the legs seem solid, no wobbling.

I watch videos a lot when I need a real review of a product I am considering buying and I have to say yours is exceptional. You go over every part and tells the pros and cons and that's what i was looking for. Thanks for taking the time to inform me about this grill. I have been considering many options as far as what to purchase. My decision to purchase this grill was for this reason. I don't care how much you pay for a grill, be it $1500.00 0r $300.00 they start rusting from the day you buy them even if you have a nice cancas cover. I think I will be able to break this down or move the entire grill into my garage which will prolong it's life. Also It may be possible to transport it for camping or a cookout remotely. Definately going to purchase it For $188.00 at Walmart you can't go wrong.

Awesome!!!! you're the only one I found out of tons of videos who actually put a measuring tape on the dang griddle Thank you!

We've used this griddler for a variety of items including steak, fish, vegetables kzread.infoUgkxMcXT6_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 haven’t done an accessories video, but I did a “re-seasoning” video this year bc the griddle got a little rusty over the winter. Check it out kzread.info/dash/bejne/hoJ_p9ZphtisiKg.html

I got this same one last weekend and I love it. The 17 inch version is supposed to fit on this stand and that is what the other set of holes are for on the stand. I wish the legs were more stable at full height. I just shortened them a bit and checked the level. I can’t wait to spend the summer trying different things on this griddle

Yea I agree with the legs. 1 they aren’t as solid as I’d like, 2 they should automatically set a tilt to the back, assuming level ground.

Thanks for sharing. I’m getting one soon🇺🇸

I have the exact same model you do I went to Walmart to the RV section picked up some of those bubble levelers replace them on the stand and leveled out the griddle, so now I can set the table up anywhere and have it level everytime I set The Griddle on it.

You can just turn it around and the hose is on the opposite side of the shelf. As long as you don’t care that then blackstone logo is on the back then it’s a fine solution.

Thanks for the review. Suggestion, when seasoning it, also wipe/season the outside edges of the griddle. This will help keep the entire unit rust free and help in keeping it clean. Skillet

I have that exact same one and I love it but I didn’t like the legs that high so I found the notches and each leg is 13” high since I’m short it’s perfect I did have to adjust a little as everything ran to the back I lost i don’t know how many eggs out the dang hole into the grease trap when I poured my scrambled eggs on it lol so I said ok this isn’t gonna work time to drag the ol tape measure out n measure each leg to exact same height lol. Worked perfect now but I was wondering can you buy a set of roller feet for it so it’s easier to move I’d like to just put rollers on the one side any ideas sure would be helpful thank you in advance

I’ve never taken the cover off. I only close it when cooking if I want to create more of an oven or steam effect. You could take it off and use a bowl to get the same effect. Good thought!

I have the 22" Blackstone without the stand but mine only came with the adapter for small camp size propane connector and not the one for the larger 20# tanks. Did I get shorted?

Cool! I just got one on a Black Friday deal. For the non-camper / non-RV crowd, plenty of deals on the 36" ... 4 burners, nice cart.. Not a whole lot more money. Also got a very nice griddle tool set (Blackstone) from W-Mart at a decent price..

Жыл бұрын

Oh that’s awesome. I haven’t seen that setup.

If you registered your unit, you can purchase another shelf cheaply from blackstone. Those big holes in the legs are not for using. These units dont really have to be perfectly level, just eyeball it. And yes, i have had mine since before covid. Warning, this little unit really puts out some heat. Rarely use it near high heat levels. Got mine for 145.00 at wal mart. So keep your eyes out for end cap sales.

Also another question just cause I feel like you’re OK to help people is like I was cooking eggs and I see that you want it tilted to the back if I do that the eggs kinda start going towards that area so what would you recommend?

Hello, what are your storage suggestions at home? Do you keep your blackstone outside?

@raiderdawgranch

Жыл бұрын

I keep mine outside, but I have a covered patio. The hard lid is really nice to keep it clean. If none of those work for you, I’d try one of the soft covers.

I think the legs are designed that way intentionally to limit teetering while cooking. They should also help stability when they are all splayed out from the center😉

After assembly, is the griddle stable on the stand, or somewhat wobbly?

@raiderdawgranch

It’s decent. It just uses screws to pinch the inner leg. There are holes to secure the leg, but that doesn’t always make the surface level correctly. I’ve never had a leg collapse or fail, but it does feel a little unstable. Opportunity for improvement.

The cook top is rolled steel.. Treat it like cast iron and you should be good. Great vid.
