    Don't let the cleaning process for a Blackstone prevent you from purchasing one or using the one you have. It's not that hard and doesn't take long at all. If you are the one who pretends to clean it the whole time your spouse is cleaning the rest of the kitchen.....I'm about to blow your cover! It takes me about 2 minutes using this process.

    If you actually use the stone it will actually clean the grill to where it won’t remove your seasoning but it will clean off all that black char from tainting your next cook. I use my stone with oil to clean it while warm. Then crank the heat and add water and then scrape into the trap and use an old cotton dish towel to wipe clean. Then turn back down to warm and rub in a new thin coat. I can run a white paper towel and it wipes clean. It takes an extra 5 minutes to clean it this way but its worth it to me

    Very impressive and informative videos. Your thorough no-nonsense presentations are exceptionally well-done with helpful sidenotes. Love the corny little jokes as well. Keep the great videos coming. Contrary to many of the UA-cam presenters, you are a natural. As a Blackstone newbie, I really appreciate the invaluable tips.

    We got my husband a Blackstone for father's day, he doesn't cook but lives to eat so I have been searching the internet for tips and recipes. I was suprised Pinterest is so lacking. Then my son in law sent me your tik tok video about the shield for the grease opening and I am now binge watching all your videos. I have to say they are by far the best and most helpful videos I have seen, you get straight to the point, your jokes make me chuckle and I have learned something in each one of them. The only downside is I am not accomplishing what I set it to do today LOL

    I found paper towels leave little pieces of paper on the grill. A lint free terry cloth towel is what I prefer for that last step.

    • @GrillThisSmokeThat
      @GrillThisSmokeThat  2 роки тому +1

      Those work well too. Heavy duty paper towels work but any of the cheaper ones do leave lint behind.

    • @michiglenn
      @michiglenn 2 роки тому

      Terry cloth works great if you’re cleaning it properly.. But nothing wrong with paper towels. The “lint” left behind easily burns off quickly when the grill is heated up.

    I've heard that using water like that, it will chip your non stick coating off. Have you had any trouble with that since you've had it? I used to do it then I read that and got spooked. Thanks you!!!

    • @GrillThisSmokeThat
      @GrillThisSmokeThat  2 роки тому +1

      I’ve used this method for over 10 months and have had zero issues. I don’t know why it would cause the seasoning to chip.

  • @rebeccahall7630

    So we have had a blackstone grill since last summer and I've had it rust twice. I scraped it all the way down and then reseasoned it with 3 or 4 layers but my husband refuses to put a little oil when cooking on the surface because he thinks it doesn't need to be oiled while cooking. I respectfully disagree. But now he cooked on It again not long ago and he couldn't get all the food that burned on all the way off so it rusted again. So now I have to bring it back to basic again and reseason it again. I want to try cleaning it like you do now and see if it stops rusting. Do you add oil when you cook on it?

    • @GrillThisSmokeThat
      @GrillThisSmokeThat  11 місяців тому +1

      It really depends on what I'm cooking. Typically I do add oil when cooking.

    How do you keep your blackstone stored outdoors? I see the metal cover but do you also use a waterproof cover? Also what about winter... do you store it in the garage? We just got one and im curious what other people do.
    I watched your hibachi video too, man it looked good!!
    🍻 Cheers!

    • @GrillThisSmokeThat
      @GrillThisSmokeThat  Рік тому +2

      I use that hard cover and then I also have the canvas cover that is mostly waterproof. I don’t move mine inside because I’m in Georgia and we cook on it most of the winter.

    Do you ever have an issue with part of your griddle “flaking?” I’ve noticed a couple of spots where I scrape to clean where the seasoning seems to be flaking off.

    • @GrillThisSmokeThat
      @GrillThisSmokeThat  2 роки тому +1

      I haven’t had that issue. I think that is from leaving too much oil on it and getting it hot when you are attempting to season it.

      I don’t put anything within 6” of the griddle on the side shelves. It will melt plastic and make metal really hot. I suggest a separate tables to keep things on.
