- in this video i show how to reset the regulator on a Blackstone 36'' griddle when the saftey feature prevents it from heating up. this is commonly from leaving the gas bottle on when the griddle or most any newer grill or cooker is not in use.

You don’t have to disconnect the tank or even wait 15 min. All you have to do is turn the tank off and then turn on one of your burners for a couple of seconds to release any pressure that may be in the line. Then just make sure all your burners are set to off before you turn the tank on. Open the tank valve slowly and you’ll be good to go. The problem is, if you open the tank with any of your grill valves in the on position, it causes the check valve in the regulator to come on which reduces flow from your tank. This can also happen when you open your tank too quickly. It’s very common problem especially with a new or full tanks. Try it and let me know if it works for you.
I just went by what the company that makes them said to do . If you read through all these comments you will find that just turning it on with the bottle unhooked works on a few but not most. This method i use will guarantee all work.
Thanks a million . Solved my problem . I was gonna return it . Only had it 3 weeks
This is exactly what I did and it fixed my problem!! Thank you so much!!
This fixed it! 🙌 Thank you! Pancakes for everyone 🥞
Yup this definitely helped. I was getting frustrated.Thanks
Outstanding! I was worried that I had an expensive repair. I used your reset procedure and the griddle is back in action. Thanks for the tip!
Was just headed to the hw store for a new regulator and decided to check UA-cam to see if not getting hot enough was a common problem. You all just saved me some money
I would eventually invest in a regulator with and adjustment on it too to prevent this
Just looked up why my Blackstone would not get hot enough. This video popped up. I tried what you said. It worked first time perfectly. Thanks for the tip and the help.
Glad i could help
This was SO Helpful! Thank you! and it was hilarious when you said "Home Made Cooktop for the Rustic"! That was funny!
Outstanding!! Thank you! I also really appreciate that extra tip at the end as I was struggling with this also!!
You just saved me from an emotionally draining few days.
This happened after my first use and I thought I screwed it up or that it was a lemon.
Thank you!!!!
Same happened to me my friend
This is a great video. Ya can’t beat that good old country know how, thank you.
MAN let me tell you how awesome this tip was. I'm new to propane grilling and this saved my bacon and burgers, literally...lol Now i can get a bigger still and get my shine on...lol
You’re the man glad i came across this video i didn’t even know my griddle could get even hotter
Dude you saved me! It absolutely was as you explained and once I did it, I had a very strong flame in my 36' in a red flag wind here right on the coast (with cover behind). Anyway cannot thank you enough and I have subscribed and liked.
Thank you. Glad it worked out for ya
I just reset the regulator using your directions and it fixed my problem. Thanks.
Glad I found your video, I was about to throw away my blackstone and get the new expensive Weber griddle, thanks!!
They also have wind guards you could probably make one if you were handy
Thank you sir, this was my problem and it drove me crazy, replaced the gas for no reason 🤦🏾♂️. Now it’s getting hott again so thank you!!
Im so glad i could help you out. It drove me nuts for several weeks before i found the answer
My husband had this problem and watched your video. Didn’t know this trick. Thank you!!
First of all I’d like to apologize because I truthfully thought you were pulling my peaches when my friends and I watched your video, but I was proven wrong after we tried your directions, now our black stone works with no issues, so I would like that thank you for posting this video, it truly saved our night.
Lol i do a lot of joking and having fun on this channel but i also try to share what i learn if i think it can help someone. Its a government safety valve in these cheap regulators so every cooker you have will do this grills and all. Glad it helped yall out
thanks so much you just fixed my griddle why can't I ever have neighbors like you 👍
dude. this is exactly what my griddle needed you are amazing and deserve all the good luck coming to you.
Absolutely killed it! Great video, brought my Blackstone back to life, THANK YOU
I appreciate the advice for seasoning the griddle.
Thanks man. Saved me from cleaning the burner lines.
Thank you for the helpful tips. Much appreciated. Safety first. The ti[p with the lard was excellent. I hope you have a great Holiday.
You addressed several issues that I’m having. I haven’t even had a chance to try it but I just know it’s gonna work thanks brother.
I have a rust and a low heat problem. I was about to throw it away. Thx so much for doing this !!
It now works AMAZINGLY GREAT ❣️ And I did try the previous comment about leaving the tank connected, didn’t work. Thank you for the video!
Dude!!
Thank you.
I just picked this up used and wasn’t getting proper flame.
This tutorial made everything all right👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I’m a Clemson guy and I hate taking advice from a Alabama guy. But you sound like you know what you are talking about. Thanks Brother ! I subscribed and Like ,Now teach me some more.
Now you know Dabo is a Bama boy. 😂 i have much respect for Clemson man but I honestly watch very little sports in the last 2 years . I think i watched 3 Bama games this year. Ive gotten focused on my outdoor stuff and filming so I rarely spend Saturday in the house anymore
@@SpiritoftheOutdoors don’t blame you one bit on that. Some of these games go too close to the way the gamblers set their numbers. Makes you wonder.
I got me a Blackstone for Christmas. So anything you post, recipes, trial and errors , etc. will be appreciated !
I have cooked a little if everything on it . Fish fillets are good on it but id just about as soon cook a steak on it as i had the grill
Heck, Clemson takes advice from an Alabama guy every day, Dabo.
Well, no shit!!! I just picked one of these up second time cooking on it I turn the gas off the first time I just did what you said to do but for 30 seconds and it works like a champ. Thanks brother cheers.
Thank you! My grill is working well again!
Thank you. Thought i was running outta propane, but my tank was heavy. Appreciate the info bud!
And it worked. I’m a happy man now. Thank you, thank you, and thank you again.
Great video man! I've had those exact two problems and couldn't figure it out. Thanks for sharing.
Video really helped me out . I am at vacation rental in Kentucky I was so excited to see the Blackstone and then it did not function. so thanks again you hooked me up👍💪
Good deal my friend. Glad i could help
Great tip ty for this 🤘🏻. I had this issue with my Blackstone this morning!
Excellent video ! I learned more from this one than I have the last dozen I've watched.
Thank you . Most folks hear my Southern draw and assume im stupid and turn it off i think lol
@@SpiritoftheOutdoors buddy I'm a redneck from East Tennessee, I talk like that too, understood every word haha. You sure helped me out, appreciate it 👌🇺🇸
Used your reset and fixed the issue thx for the tip. Ya learn something new every day.
Worked for me! Now I know what to keep an eye out for. You rock!
Appreciate the tip. Just ran into this issue for first time tonight.
Thank you. Your demo along with the comments solved the problem.👍🏼
All you have to do is close the controls knobs and unscrew the regulator to release the pressure and retighten no need to wait 15 minutes. This is typical for all modern gas stoves and is caused by the control knobs being open(ed) before opening the regulator.
I did that and it works sometimes and on some it wont but the 15 min guarantees it works on all. More than likely its lack of quality in regulators .
We did just that and also changed the tank, not good. Going to try Spirits method.
Worked like a charm!! Thank you!!
Thank you sir i cant believe this has been an issue in my life for a while now 🤷🏽♂️
I had to read through a pile of forums to find it but i wanted to share it.
I was drunk and forgot to turn the bottle off, and this happened. Thanks, I was about to replace the regulator.
Did this for my trager griddle. It worked!! Thanks dude. Definitely subscribing.
Thank you! Saved me this morning.
I was going to take mine back to the store. But you solved the problem. Thanks brother
I dont know why they dont put a paper about this in every cooker that has these regulators. They know people will buy another one i think
I really appreciate the video!! Im having this exact problem with the used Blackstone I bought! Thank you!!
Thanks man.
I appreciate your effort and time in showing us how to fix the issue.
ROLL TIDE!!!
Roll Tide
i really didnt think we was gonna beat georgia but ROLL TIDE
Thank you so much for the video. It helped a lot.
Thanks was having same problem. Just waited about 5 minutes
excellent video just what i was wondering thank you for teaching
It worked ! Thank you ! And yes l did forget to close the propane 1 time …won’t do that again.
Ill be honest its hard to remember because i let it sit hot a few mins after scraping clean and adding a little oil, then i cut burners of ready to eat lol
Thank you for the video, it fixed it for me
Dude is a genius
Thank you for taking the time to share with us I sure appreciate it very much to all of you I just spent 1400$ from the 36 inch griddle and accessories. It was all the money I had only to completely fail on my second cook disappointing……..but I will give it a try to reset the regulator
did it work?
I will find out tonight if it worked. I hope so
Worked like a charm! Thank you for the help!
Hey man, this is a great video and it’s saving our family cook tonight! Thank you for making it. I don’t know where you live but I’m hungry for the fish and wild game and whatever else you cook on it! Also, love that lid you made!
Thanks. Im down in Mississippi. Running catfish lines and there will be fillets on mine this week one night.
Yes absolutely I thought I was going to have to contact the manufacturer. I had to grill on for 10 minutes and it barely was heating the burgers up. I only had my stuff unhooked and open for about 4 minutes and tried it and it worked. Thanks again my brother.
Thanks for the information buddy! Nicely done and to the point. Ill try this on mine tomorrow.
It totally worked! Thanks man👍🏻
Glad to help
not burning the house down seems like a good idea. especially when you have kids inside.
GO SAFETY
You saved the day! Thanks!
My husband is singin your praises...you just saved the holiday weekend for us. Keeps sayin "son of a bitch...we're cookin now" 😄😄 thanks 👍
It feels good to get to help somebody out
Brother you saved me today cheers!
Good deal
It worked hoss, much thanks and u earned a new follow
Thank you
Yep, that did it. Thank ya brother!
Hey man I thank you for your helpful video. It really work.
Thank you! Fixed my problem.
Good deal . Glad it could help somebody
Thank you so much for this video brother. You helped me fix my griddle. :)
I couldn’t believe nobody else did this when i was trying to fix mine . I spent hours researching what it was before I figured it out so i thought it would help some folks out
@@SpiritoftheOutdoors I certainly appreciate it. Subscribing now.
This guy is correct
I had to add a yellow propane hose to make it long enough to fit where I needed it. Is that going to restrict the flow?
Worked perfect! Thank you sir!
Yo this guy is awesome.
Thanks man... I'll try it.
Thanks this video helped a lot thanks for sharing
Great video, thank you.
I never hurts to turn the tank off and let the gas burn out before you shut the stove off.
I’m new to using a griddle I was cooking fried rice and my griddle begin to Wilt what could be the cause of that ? Do I need to buy a more expensive one ?
Thx brother, you saved me!
Problem fixed !! Thank you
Thank you!!
I had the same issue as
Most. Griddle only would get to 290-300 degrees. Exchanged tanks. Did the reset. As I was looking at the info-red thermometer I realized it was set to C instead of Fahrenheit. Maybe some of you should recheck your temp gage.
Where is this temp guage located?
that rust-looking color you see when using oil is not rusting if you watch some of the brand promotors for Blackstone they tell you what you are seeing is not rust. I use flax seed oil to season my griddle. I had my Blackstone griddle for a year. live in Michigan no rust. just one spot on the side of the griddle fixed with a mix of vinegar water. because of how well seasoned it is after every cook I now go over with oil one time really. I know my flat top is seasoned will because i have cooked stuff that sticks easily on pans I used and not one problem with those items sticking.
Found this comment on META. Anyway to increase the BTUs on the Walmart Griddle by Blackstone? the Walmart model only heats up to 48,000 BTUs while the model at all other stores heats up to 60,000 BTUs. Again, I'm happy with my Walmart model, but wanted to share this FYI for those wondering like I did why the Blackstone at Walmart was $100 less. It's still a good griddle, but the burners are apparently a less powerful model made exclusively for Walmart.
I bought this one at a local farm supply but I seriously dont think it gets as hot as others. I have to cook on high so when mine messed up it really wouldn’t cook . Thanks for the comment
Thanks that was helpful 👍
Wow fixed my issue, thanks!!!
Thanks for the tip
Great info thank you
Spot on thanks
Thank you so much!
Thank you
Wow, cant believe i didn't know that. I hope it fixes my issue. Thanks.
It has worked on many. I had to read a pile of blogs to find it after mine messed up and i was ready to call blackstone. But i shoulda known it was the government’s fault 😂
@@SpiritoftheOutdoors Yep worked like a charm! Wowza the griddle can get hot now! I told like 10 people about this to spread the info.
@@AngryhammerGames thank you.
Thank you brother
Your welcome
Thanks 👏🏾👏🏾
Thank you ! :)
It works. Thanks
Thanks ya
I’d think twice about storing your charcoal lighter fluid on the griddle’s shelf. I heard it gets real hot under there.
Its a good thing that people bring lawsuit against companies, companies do not have your best interest in mind. The reason why countries have a middle class is because of laws and the court system. Good video, but acting like protecting someone who is new at doing something is somehow holding society back and making other suffer is strange and objectively wrong.
No its not wrong you just dont like it
If you pour a cup of hot water on the regulator, you dont have to do all that to reset the regulator.
7 minutes later and I missed dinner
This is ridiculous. Ive tried 3 different regulators and 3 different tanks. I tried this trick still doesnt work. I have crab boilers, bbqs and smolers and have never had a problem.
