Griddle Cooking Tips
For Beginners and Beyond
We’ve been cooking on griddles and flat top grills about 4 times per week for the last 4 years, so we know a thing or two about cleaning, maintenance, seasoning, and general “how to” questions about flat top grilling.
Whether you just got a brand new Blackstone or you’ve dabbled in griddle cooking already, The Flat Top King can help you perfect your skills so that you can produce amazing food on your outdoor cooking equipment.
It’s true, griddle cooking can be a bit intimidating if you’re brand new. You may be worried about getting the griddle seasoning just right, or you’re nervous about cleaning the surface the wrong way. Or one of the most common things that newbies don’t expect is how hot certain griddle models can get (even on the low heat setting).
But we can help you with all of that! Here are some of our most popular griddle cooking tutorials:
