Blackstone Griddle Cleaning & Seasoning Made Simple

First time using your Blackstone? Wash it with hot, soapy water and a lint-free cloth to remove the shipping coating. This is the only time you’ll ever use soap on it. Dry it off, then spread 2–3 tablespoons of cooking oil (flax, canola, or olive oil work great) in a thin, even layer. Heat on high until the oil stops smoking—about 10–15 minutes. Repeat this 2–3 times for a slick, black finish. After each cook, while the griddle’s still hot, scrape off food and oil with a metal scraper. For stuck-on bits, pour on some water to steam them off. Wipe dry, then add a thin layer of oil to keep it seasoned and rust-free. If you ever spot rust, heat the griddle, scrape, scrub with oil and a grill brick, then re-season. Maintenance is easy if you stay on top of it! #BlackstoneGriddle #GriddleCare #SeasoningTips #Food #Cooking

Seasoning & Maintaining Your Blackstone Griddle: My Step-by-Step Routine

If your Blackstone is brand new, clean it with warm water and mild dish soap to get rid of any factory residue. Dry it completely before moving on. Crank the burners to high and let the griddle heat up for about 10-15 minutes until it starts to brown. This is when you know it’s ready for oil. Use 2-3 tablespoons of a high smoke point oil (I like avocado or flaxseed oil) and spread it evenly over the whole surface, including the sides and corners. Use tongs and a paper towel for safety. Turn the burners back on and let the oil smoke. Once the smoke stops, repeat the oiling and heating process 3-5 times until the surface is dark brown or black. After you’re done, let the griddle cool and wipe it with a thin layer of oil before storing. This keeps it rust-free and ready for your next cookout. For cleaning, skip the soap after the first use—just scrape, wipe with hot water, and always finish with a little oil. If food starts sticking or you see rust, it’s time to re-season. #BlackstoneGriddle #GriddleSeasoning #OutdoorCooking #Food #Cooking
