Have an entire storage cabinet for my accessories. My husband also thinks it’s excessive, but I think everything is a MUST! 😂
I like where your head is at! Great minds think alike.
i think it is better to have whatever you may need than to wish you had it when the time comes that you may need it.
My wife kicked my griddle accessories out of the kitchen when I exceeded one cabinet so I too bought a Rubbermaid storage ‘shed’ for them. Now my neighbors know of my obsession.
Use your steak weight to hold down the egg ring until the egg starts to set up. No leaks. I am now headed out to try making popcorn! Never heard of that one!
That's a great idea with the steak weight. I hope your popcorn turned out.
@@JohnnyBrunet Thanks! It did for the most part. Had some burned ones but the wife loved it.
Cincinnati born and raised, still here. I see you with the TRUTH from Rhinegeist!
Heck ya buddy How about those Red Legs!!! Man it's been fun to watch. Well I appreciate you watching my video and if you just got a new griddle congrats. I love most of Rhinegeist stuff. I'm in columbus so I can get the best of both worlds, I get the Cincy and the Cleveland beers.
@@JohnnyBrunet Reds on a roll. Hopefully they can keep these ayers in the organization
@@JoshThompson25 for sure, gotta open up the check book.
Hey Johnny, I use kitty litter...the lumping kind...in the grease cup. It absorbs the grease and makes it real easy to clean up.
That's a great idea!
A nice trick to stop that paper towel from unrolling, take a magnetic hook put it on the side of the shelf between the hooks for the paper towel rack. Then get a 18" long piece of light duty chain, like the kind use for a swing set, and put it on the hook and let it lay over the roll of paper towel. Not only will the weight of the chain prevent the PT from un-rolling in the breeze but the added weight also helps when you do the "snap the towel" off move.
That a great idea Steb, thanks for the tip.
Yep! That thermometer is essential, didn't have one when I first started working the griddle, big difference now! 👍
13:53 only time you'd need gloves for the griddle is when you turn it when you season to get the front seasoned.

Just got my Blackstone and I love this channel! Great stuff, thanks Johnny!
Thanks man I'm so glad you like it and congrats on the new griddle. I really appreciate you watching.
I just got a black stone griddle and am completely new at grilling in general. I have found your videos extremely helpful and fun to watch! Thanks for the awesome content!
Congratulations on the new griddle Phillip. I'm so glad the videos are helping you. I appreciate you watching, cheers buddy 🍻
A common brick wrapped in foil weighs down a smash burger and cleans up quickly.
Geat suggestion Myron, thanks!
Also works to throw at the first person to complain about your cooking!
😆@@killolot
Great cheap/free hack.
Wow ! Thats a great idea !
I’ve had the batter dispenser for years and love it! Also nice for filling cupcake, muffin pans. I am enjoying your videos immensely! A suburban griddle came with our new camper, so I am following your suggestions for gear, and thanks for all the help!
That's a great point about the muffins. Congratulations on the new griddle and I really appreciate you watching my videos. Sounds like you've got some great camping breakfasts in your future.
Good stuff, Johnny! One thing I'm surprised you didn't put on the list was a spare propane tank. Nothing sucks more than being halfway through a cook and running out.
Thanks, and yes someone else mentioned that and I can't believe I forgot. A spare tank is an absolute life savor when you got a bunch of food on and your tank does. Thanks so much for watching.
Yeah, or having a 1 lb as a backup. That way, you get a full charge off the 20 lb empty tank or trade swapping.
Some people don't have room for 2 20 lb tanks going, say camping. 1 lb a little pricey, but helps with the 1/3 filled 20 lb tank, will it be enough.
Great stuff, good video! I had to watch the whole thing when I didn't see the thermometer in the must haves. Knew you would add it, definitely a must have!
Ya it is definitely a must have. Thanks for watching buddy, cheers 🍻
I love your unbiased realistic opinion. I always enjoy your videos & l learn so much from you. Thank you 😊
Thanks Diana I'm so glad you like them and I really appreciate you watching.
Love the list and love my beveled spatula. I haven't used an actual scraper in quite some time. Best of both worlds in one haha You keep it real, relatable and honest. Keep doing you and helping people get into the griddle game and grow!
Ya the beveled is definitely the star of the spatulas. And thanks for the compliments Garrett I really appreciate it. Love your videos as well buddy, keep it up.
@@JohnnyBrunet thanks I appreciate it as well!
Great information - thank you Johnny!
You're very welcome, thanks for watching Steve.
Johnny - what up!? Good info as always. I took the Camp Chef 2 burner to deer camp this weekend and wow'ed to guys with some of your breakfast techniques - including the smashed tater tots. Those were a BIG HIT. I christened them "smash-browns" TM. Thanks! Keep on griddlin!
Hey Thatcher that's awesome I'm glad everyone like the breakfast you made. . "Smash-Browns"!! That's an amazing name lol. I'm totally using that. Thanks for sharing.
I love my griddle, but I truly love your channel! Beer is a must and next week is always the best week to start the diet. Most importantly, my wife loves that I love to griddle, no matter the weather. We both agree breakfast is the king. Thanks for putting out wonderful content.
Thanks Jeffrey I'm glad you like the channel and agree with my griddle life philosophys lol. I seriously tell people that the griddle is the best thing to happen to a marraige. You cook for your wife and all the grease is outside leaving the kitchen clean. You really can't beat it. Thanks so much for watching I really appreciate it, cheers buddy 🍻
Great video...my husband bought me my first outdoor griddle for Easter
I love to grill but was a bit nervous on what I needed to use the new griddle your videos are the best!!
Thank you ❤
Awesome!!! What a great Easter gift. Hopefully you can get some good weather this Sunday and make some good on it. I'm glad that my videos have been helpful.
Just bought a Blackstone 36" griddle. It's still in the box. Couldn't find a cover locally so I'm waiting on Amazon to deliver it before I put it outside. Until then, watching your videos so I can get off to a good start. Thanks for all the information you've provided.
On a side note ... you remind me so much of a fraternity brother I had. He always had a beer in his hand. I think he's in prison now ...
Congratulations on the new griddle Michael! Thanks so much for watching and I'm glad my videos have been helpful for you. If you ever have any questions just let me know.
Hopefully I don't end up in prison like your fraternity brother lol. Thanks again for watching Michael.
Great job Johnny
Thanks brother!
Great video. Agree on IR Thermometer Mine has paid for itself
Thanks Randall!
The most important griddling tool is an ice cold Yuengling Lager!
Totally agree on the cover.
Definitely an IR thermometer! I saw that on another UA-cam video and remembered I have two! A great tool for the griddle!
Good information for the beginner, like me. Thanks for sharing!
Amen Curt! An ice cold beverage is always the most essential griddle tool. Glad you liked the video and congrats on your new griddle. Thanks for watching.
I really like your videos. They inform and inspire. The heat gun (infrared thermometer) suggestion is important and once you have one, you'll be surprised how useful they are for cooking and beyond.
Thanks Brian I'm so glad that you find them useful, and I really appreciate you watching.
I've had a griddle for the past three years and your videos are some of the best I've come across. I never knew about the pumice stone, I'll be picking up one of those as it looks like it would have solved an issue that I had on my last griddle. I just picked up a Blackstone Pro Series and will have to stock it up with some of the items on your list.
Awesome I'm so glad my videos have been helpful. I think the pumice stone will really get your griddle looking nice. Thanks for watching.
Hey, still got lots of videos to watch. Keep up the good work, love the passion.
Happy New Year to you and your family. Cheers 🍺🥂🥃🍻🍷
Happy new year to you too!
Love the Strickland propane hat!
Thanks man I found it on Amazon and it's my favorite hat now.
Finishing Potatoes in a little bit of Margarine is a surprising way to make them crispy
Great vid - I went griddle-less this weekend at a new suburban camp spot for my squaredrop. Over in RI there was the remnant of Fiona with pouring rain and blasting wind. Ended up hitting my favorite trolly diner and was entertained by their griddle mastery while sitting at the counter, out of the weather.
Oh man I love trolly diners they are my absolute favorite. If my wife and I are on vacation and we see one it's a must stop for me. Some of the guys that work at those places are so good. They can run those flat tops all day.
@@JohnnyBrunet Poetry in motion 🙂
Long time, no see, Johnny! Happy to see your griddle channel cookin' up, man! Once my house is completed, I just might get me one of these. See ya around!
Hey Buddy!!! Long time no see. I didn't know you were building a house that's awesome! For sure once you get it done you should get a griddle. See you around, hopefully at the super bowl party.
Excellent points all the way around Johnny. I am an accessory freak and Blackstone as well so you can imagine I have just about every accessory they have. It’s my thing I guess lol. Take care brother.
Nothing wrong with having all the accessories I am in the same boat. As always thanks for watching brother.
Great video! Cheers!
Thanks Frank, cheers 🍻
I have a 30 " Cuisinart that I am still learning to use on different recipes . It is a 2 burner . Just have to be careful not to push food into the drip edge . I like that it has a lid .
Ya the lid is definitely a nice feature Mark. I e had other people say they have the Cuisinart as well and they like it. Thanks for sharing.
Good stuff Johnny.
Thanks Todd!
If you have a harbor freight near you they sell magnetic 2 piece paper towel holder. Magnets are super strong. I leave paper towels(blue ones) on it all year long they have never blown away or “went bad” even in winter. Just a heads up
Oh that's good to know, thanks for the heads up. I know where a HF is I'll have to pick some up.
Thanks for the video.
You're welcome, thanks for watching.
Great info. I went to Harbor Freight and bought 2 of their bar magnets made for holding tools and screwed them into the face on the bottom of the grill
Thanks! That's a great idea with the bar magnets.
Love the choice of hat for an accessories video 😂
another great video. thank you sir...
Thanks Scotty!
Good vid JB
Thanks brother
You're welcome Hugh, thanks for watching.
awesome tips brother, i just bought a new Vevor Griddle and have no idea what i may need, thank you.
Glad I could help
Great information, Thank You
You're welcome, thanks for watching.
Great video! Couple things I use, inexpensive, easy to obtain.
Walmart, Mainstays Mini Loaf Pans, 5 pack for less than $2. I use them on my Blackstone 36. Little small, but work well. Second, Harbor Freight, 4 pack magnetic hooks, for under $5.
Just couple simple ideas.
Have a Great Day!
Thanks for the ideas Joseph. You can't beat those prices those are both must buys for that cheap! Thanks for sharing.
You are 😂 and it's nice to laugh! Great video! I just got a used one for $100 and I'm excited to clean it up and start using it!!
Thanks Steve! Congratulations on the new griddle and that's a great price!
lol at the sisqo reference @2:22 lol and dude that little mesh for the bacon is a must have!
😁😁😁
As a remodeler I have found multiple uses for drywall taping knives, including on my griddle; great for scraping and cleaning and easier (for me) than a spatula. Good video !
Oh ya I knew some cooks who always used dry wall knives. They loved them.
same!I just got my Blackstone this Christmas and said forget $30+ I'm gonna grab an $8 drywall knife as I use them all the time for work. It has worked perfect! Sharper than a namebrand griddle scraper and easier for me to use quickly. You gotta know how to do the troweling motion, so I'm ahead of the curve as far as that goes. Still learning tricks for the griddle though
I've had really good luck with crisco. I use it for all my cast iron and when I got my griddle I tried canola but it's winter and couldn't get it hot enough. But when I switched to Crisco, and used the hood to reap heat, it turned out great!!!
Ya I've heard other people say that they love crisco. I need to give that a try!
@@JohnnyBrunet before inflation it was cheaper but on sale quite a bit and right now at Kroger I think for a tub. Definitely cheaper than the black stone stuff. And I've had zero issues for a decade in cast iron. I don't know if other stuff is better but should have just gone with my gut. Got a black griddle in 3 or 4 layers. Using lid helped to get it hotter and opened every few minutes to allow it to smoke off better
For me the wire rack is a must. Keeps my bacon and sausages warm and have the grease drip off while I finish up the eggs.
Ya I totally agree Alan. The wire rack is definitely in my top five accessories.
@@JohnnyBrunet I also took your advice to clean as I cook, that's good. Now my griddle is flaking cos I was not using it. Now have to clean it with the block.
@@firstdown80 ya mine was flaking too the brick then reseasoning should do the trick.
Got my Blackstone two days ago - made cheesesteaks today using your method and they were the best ever
Oh awesome!!! Did you do them at a lower temp of the higher temp? When I did them both ways I think I liked the lower better.
@@JohnnyBrunet I have four burner. Left burner off , middle left low,middle right a little above low, right burner low. Came out perfect with peppers onions and mushrooms pushed to the left while cooking the steaks
@@theedgereport7383 Nice! I'm so glad it turned out great for you. They sound amazing
Great video buddy, thanks for the information, just ordered a 36” Blackstone so you’ve helped me out for sure, I might even post a bit myself once I get going. Cheers 👍🏻🔥
Awesome!! I'm glad it was helpful.
Great video, but I must say a beer is ALWAYS a necessary accessory! Here in the UK I prefer English cider (fermented apple juice, very alcoholic!)
Beer is definitely always necessary 😂. That English Cider sounds good I will have to give it a try.
Enjoy the inspirations!
Thanks!
Smoker and grill when doing large meat is what the gloves are for. Pork shoulder, pork But, short ribs, ribs, and Brisket. Done lots of smoking on treager and grill on webber. New to griddle cooking.
Ya I totally agree David the gloves are much more usuful for those. I just got a Big Green Egg for christmas so I'm excited to learn more about smoking. Congrats on the new griddle and thanks for watching.
the egg rings are legit!! i got a blackstone set from bjs wholesale and theyre silicone, i love them! even if i dont plan to use them when making breakfast on the griddle i stall take them out just in case
Ya I really enjoy mine as well. Sometimes I even use them to make perfectly round hash brown patties with the frozen hash browns or some tater tots.
@@JohnnyBrunet never thought about using them for anything other than eggs to be honest, i guess i gotta get creative
I use a headlamp at night, works like a champ...along with 1,000 other uses 👍
Nice!
😂 I got the Blackstone grill press, it's 10 inches square its huge and heavy but I wanted it to be bigger to cover more lol
🤣🤣🤣 hey if it works, it works! Thanks for commenting Janette.
Johnny!!! I finally bought a blackstone and it came today!! 28” 2 burner, I’ve been following your channel for awhile so I will be buying your E-book. And yes I bought a infrared thermometer!
Awesome Gregory! Congrats on the new griddle and thanks so much for watching my videos.
Do you like your 28 inch or do you wish you had a 36 inch
Totally agree with the need to know your temps…a must have. Ohio State is looking really good! Think your boy will be going for the heisman? I’m a Alabama fan…maybe next year. 😂
Ya I'm pretty excited about the Buckeyes but still worried about Michigan. I don't know if Stroud will get the Heisman but he's got a great shot at it. Ya this may not be the year for you guys but you've definitely had your fair share of good years lol. Should be a fun playoff but I can't wait until they expand to 8 teams. Thanks for watching Chris.
Cooking dinner now at 5:30 pm is cooking in the dark! But with my hiking headlamp on at least I see what I’m looking at. But the neighbors in the RV park probably wonder if I’m a coal minor, a burglar or a lightening bug on steroids! So temps on the griddle are important and so is the temps of the meat. I preset my meat thermometer and wait for the sound!
Thanks for the video!
Sounds like you got your system down Paul! Maybe I need to get myself a headlamp. Have a good one buddy.
I agree that there are only several must have accessories, the rest are a bonus. Now, as far as squeeze bottles are concerned, I like to use old ketchup bottles. I think they work best. Thanks for the video and GRIDDLE ON DUDE. So when are you going to do a colab.
That's a great idea with the ketchup bottles. Thanks for the tip Bruno!
great video
Glad you enjoyed it
With me the beers are the best 😂 but thanks for everything else and keep doing it your doing a great job
Oh I totally agree, beer is essential accessory #1 😁🍻. Thanks for watching James.
thanks new at our blackstone grille thanks
You are very welcome thank you so much for watching. Congratulations on the new griddle. If you ever have questions I'm happy to help.
The Yoda of griddles. So wise.
Hahaha thanks Jay!
If I was your neighbor, I would have you train me in the ancient ways of the griddleForce.
Johnny I have the plastic/silicone version of most accessories for my indoor griddle. I have small spatulas with holes and I need to find full size because they are good for scooping food and leaving oil behind. You are right about gloves, don't need them for the griddle, but keep near the air fryer oven, that thing gets way hot!
Ya Guy I still need to get me one of those air fryers I know you said you love yours. I just think the wife might kill me if I come home with another kitchen appliance lol.
@@JohnnyBrunet I'm at the point I buy something new and something old got to go!
@@IndyGuy65 😂😂😂
@@JohnnyBrunet When I replace the counter top air fryer oven its going to be comedy cause I will also have to move the instant pot to a different place. The new oven will need more space. 🤣
Just carefully line you grease catch with heavy duty aluminum foil…I used to do that before I got my silicone liner.
In my liners I wrap it with reynolds wrap and place a folded paper towels inside. Easy cleaning up and saves your linerd
That's a great idea, I'll give it a try.
I use that dough scraper, cutter whatever - for many things..
2 small warming racks makes the space you need "adjustable". Sometimes I use one other times I use both of mine.
Very true. Two small racks is the way to go.
Enjoy your channel. Question is, what size is your small Cooling rack?
Thanks Robert! it's a 5 by 10 rack, here is a link to it on Amazon.
amzn.to/3EwUDTu
Gonna do Smashburger Tacos tonight for the first time. Also gonna stop at the beverage store and see can I find me some of that Rhinegeist Truth to try out. That certainly appears to be a "must have" for griddling. Just recently relocated to Western Kentucky from Colorado. Trying to broaden my beer horizons from strictly Coors... I will say Kentucky has definitely broadened my Bourbon horizon.
Sounds like you got a good menu planned out there Danny! Ya the Truth beer is out of Cincinnati so it might be in Kentucky. I like it a lot but it is a strong IPA. Nothing wrong with Coors my friend, I've had plenty of those as well.
@@JohnnyBrunet I actually found some today in Princeton. Not much for heavy beer but my son is. If I don't like it, I'll save it for next time he comes out from CO.
@@dannybarton940 nice.
Hey Johnny, on a completely unrelated note, what adjustments do you make when you're cooking outside in the cold? Reason being I was going to do some fried rice the other night when it was about 35° outside and after about 15 minutes of the camp chef being on medium/low the griddle top was about 57° so I aborted mission and cooked it inside. I didn't feel like experimenting and wasting propane if it was going to take much longer to heat up. Love the videos. Thank you and keep em coming!
Hey Brandon sorry for the delay. So I have cooked in 35 degree weather I usually don't have any problems I just try to heat it up on low to avoid warping, but I also heat up my griddle on low just to be safe. However when I cooked in the cold I have never done fried rice. Fried rice will really drop the temp of your griddle especially whe it is cold out. My reccomendatin next time would be to slowly heat your griddle up to a little above normal so it can handle the temp drop once the food goes on. I usually cook fried rice around 400 maybe you should try starting at 425 and then see what happens once you put all the rice and ingrediants on. Hopefully that helps thanks so much for watching.
@Johnny Brunet thanks for the reply. I'll try and be a bit more patient and give it more time to get a little hotter next time.
I am getting a LeGriddle next month. It is taking a while to get to me but I can wait. Somewhat. :)) Anyway, the lid is an accessory so I get what you are saying about the lids. They should just come with it. Jeez. Especially at that price point.
Congratulations on the new griddle. I've cooked on the Le Griddle a lot, they are really nice. But yes at that price it's kind of crazy that it doesn't come with a lid. Thanks for watching.
if you don’t have good lighting & you wanna cook outside at night, get yourself a decent headlamp
Only cover I could find was 140$, not in the budget. I built a wood frame, attached a custom cut diamond plate piece of aluminum and attached to frame and attached handles, under 40$
💅
Oh that's a great idea and saves a ton of money. Mine was only 100 but that was 2 years ago which was way different pricing.
sweet, ima get a youtube channel and use that excuse for 3 griddles and 73 accessories! thanks Johnny! ;)
I have the monster steak press, got it specifically for large breakfast cooks for the bacon but use it most for my Cuban Sliders
It's a great excuse Cory!!! Those cuban sliders sound delicious, I love Cuban sandwiches.
@@JohnnyBrunet give it a try, no big secret, I used KH butter rolls left over smoked port from recent cooks I do on my smoker. Ham, swiss cheese I chop pickles to put them on and use some juice with Mayo and mustard for the mustard sauces to think it out, but not much. While the meats are getting reheated and the ham getting a little color I let the weight heat up. I build it on the griddle and that big weight sits almost perfect on the soft rolls to smash them down without pushing. whatever sauce I dont use on the build I keep for dipping.
@@OleDuke that sounds great! I will have to give it a try for sure. KH is the only way to go, they are the best.
@@JohnnyBrunet I call it my Cuban Slider Crisis ;)
@@OleDuke 😂😂😂
Where did you get the little wire rack? I'm in the same city as you (saw the CBJ and OSU apparel in another video) and would love to pick one up for my new griddle. Love your videos! Very informative with a touch of humor. :)
Nevermind, I think I just found the link in your description...I didn't read far enough lol
Hey neighbor! So sorry I didn't get a chance to respond earlier. Ya I have the link to Amazon in my description but I did actually get mine from restaurant equippers. It's on west broad by franklinton. Def check it out sometime, there's all sorts of cool kitchen equipment. Thanks so much for watching Jon.
Awesome, I'll have to check it out! Thanks for the tip.
@@NicholsRCGarage anytime
Great video Johnny ! How do you great grillers stay so skinny? Asking for a friend.
Johnny, Love your channel, great advice and tips!! All I want for Christmas is a flat top grill, but what is the best brand in your opinion? Keep up the good work and thanks for making your viewers laugh!!
Hi Martin! Thanks so much I'm glad you like the channel. I hope you get that griddle for Christmas. I like my camp chef and haven't had any problems with it other than warping once but it went right back. I just put frozen meat in a very hot griddle and that caused it to warp. However CC is more expensive than Blackstone and I don't think there's anything wrong with Blackstone. I have a 2 burner Blackstone and it works great. I say get what's in your price range but I do prefer the 4 burner over the 2 burner because it's so much more versatile. Let me know if you have any more questions and thanks for watching.
LMAO the Full covearge gloves would come in handy if someone tries to steal your griddle while you are cooking, to take it inside the house for safe keeping, LOL
🤣🤣🤣
I find a ladle or a measuring cup best for pancakes, items I already own. Headlamp is the best thing to use to see in the dark - for absolute any project ever. I also don’t use paper towels. Too expensive, and from indoor cooking on cast iron - I can’t stand all the fibers that get left behind, more with every swipe.
Ya I forgot to mention the fibers I hate that too. And ai never thought about a head lamp I should get me one of those for late night smash burgers.
@@JohnnyBrunet thanx for the video!
About to make a purchase on my first griddle.. I'm a vegetarian but i cook the meat for my family (nobody will ever understand) but I'm scared to death. I'll be watching ALOT of your videos this spring/summer 😂
Oh awesome!! Don't be scared man they're easy to use and I'm sure you're family will love it. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.
You had me (stopped reading) at “vegetarian”… thank you for the early warning. Hehehe. Jk, I know you’ll come around. I believe in you!! YOU CAN DO IT!
@@ryankim3612 I appreciate you bro lol. I already feel like a vet. I cook on it multiple times a week and all weekends. breakfast, lunch, dinner lol. it's just much easier cooking outside and keeping the kitchen clean.
This channel is funny as hell
Thanks man.
They are called gadgets for a reason. I have the essentials(spatulas, scraper, thermometer, and dome) works for me. If you want it get it I guess.
Very true Dale.
Viva paper towels won't unravel and great for camping/trailers. HF has 2 piece magnetic ones and can adjust tension on roll.
Thanks! I'll look for those
I have a plus one for your list of must haves. A decent fuel gauge for your tank. You probably won't enjoy discovering that your burners are giving a weak flame or a flame that is flickering and ready to die just when you are getting started on prepping one of your culinary masterpieces.
agreed, or a 2nd tank.
Totally agree I never think about a fuel gage because I have two tanks. But nothing is worse than running out of propane.
@@OleDuke even with a second tank, you still have the inconvenience of having your grill cool off before you notice the flames declining and before you shut off the burners while you change the tank and get things going again.
@@Grantthetruthteller yep, i can see that. I haven't had to big an issue so far and its happened twice, but i am an anomaly, my 2nd tank sits 4 ft away.. My biggest need for this would be when I am doing frogmore stew. it takes long enough to get things to a boil
brother, it would be a pleasure to Have a cold beer as well as sit with you while we are griddling some fantastic grub, maybe one day we can talk about that, LOL, peace man.
I have the black stone press. Biggest issue is that the metal handle gets hot.
Thanks for sharing. Mine has a wooden handle and I never thought about it but that's probably why.
Inflation?! Yes it’s bad, but we just bought our second brand new home a couple of months ago. The first one was 2 years ago. What many don’t understand is, that most of the time, the monthly payments on a purchased home are less than renting one!!!
Squish the paper towel roll so it’s no longer round, make it oval, it will keep it from unrolling as easy so that it doesn’t accidentally unroll. Little tougher to unroll, but does keep it from accidentally unrolling.
That's a fantastic idea I never thought of that. I'm totally going to start doing that from now on. Thanks!
Nice video. I got to tell ya, though, you don't ever want to put hot foods in plastic bags.
Toxic!
Hey johnny,
Can ya help me?
I cook for my church and we desperately need to upgrade/replace existing bbq equipment. (LPG only, no charcoal/wood, or IPA) I'm pushing for a covered outdoor kitchen area filled with professional (as best we can do, we're poor Baptist's) type equipment.
First things first, we needs a huge high equally flattop and equally efficient gas grill, hooded and dual power burners. We served 149 at the recent sports banquet, Hawaiian BBQ theme...only by the Grace of GOD did we pull it off. Great story!
Any ideas/suggestions to buy or maybe more importantly, equipment to avoid? Not looking to back you into corner, your top 3 maybe.
I like...
Griddles:
1. Patriot Platinum - 60"
2. Traeger Flatrock - 48"
3. Blackstone - 48"
Gas Grills:
1. Patriot Platinum - 64"
2. American Renaissance
3. ?
Power Burners:
1. American Renaissance - 60k BTU
2. ?
3. ?

Hey Guy!
Thanks for watching my video man. That's cool that you help out so much at your church and that you guys are doing these events.
I guess my main question is, what is the amount of people you'll have for a normal event? Is that 125 number a regular thing or was that a one off and normally it's just like 50 people?
I've heard of patriot and seen a lot of people with food trucks use them. I've never heard anything really negative about them but I've also never personally used it. I'm pretty sure they are close to commercial grade equipment. The one thing I would double check on is if they have propane options. You definitely don't want to buy a natural gas grill and hook up propane bc it will basically turn into a flame thrower.
As for the Blackstone and the trasher both are very nice. I'd lean towards Blackstone because you can get it for a better price. I really like my Camp Chef griddle as well and I know they make a 6 but er which is nice. I'd check that out too if you're cooking for a bunch of people.
I don't know where you guys are located at but if you're near a restaurant equipment store they sometimes will have used items at very good prices. That's always worth looking into.
As for power burners I'm not familiar at all with those so unfortunately I don't have many suggestions.
I hope that was helpful, if you ever have more questions feel free to email me at griddlewithjohnny@gmail.com
Johnny the most important item on your cooking utensil is your beer they always say a good cooks with wine I don't drink wine and either of you

What sort of transportation hub do you live near… I heat plains trains and automobiles. Love this channel though!!

I wish u could do a video everyday.
I watch a few channels that always have their videos posted at the same time everyday. Well, I’ll say it. Liberal Hivemind. 2:30-2:45 then again right around 4ish everyday. Don’t get me wrong. I really like your videos!!!!
Haha thanks Steve I wish I could quit my job and do one every day too my friend. Always appreciate you watching.
I use the taco holder to make stuffed pork chops in my smoker
That's a great idea to utilize that elsewhere. Thanks for sharing.
where did you ger the hanger for the utensils?
The magnetic hooks are through camp chef, here is a link.

And these are the hooks that just hang off the side. They aren't magnetic. It also comes with the paper towel holder but I don't love that.

Thanks so much for watching.
Smash to an oval the inner tube of paper towels to slow their roll
Thanks Jim, that's a great recommendation.
