Blackstone 36" Griddle Review

[MikeCantell]

Bought 1 this past week end and it works great. I have found the 1 flaw that I will have to address asap which is the drain. They put a small dab of weld under the drain hole to make it funnel into the cup and its not working well.A 3/8" barbed hose connector will be installed along with a tube of some kind to run into a bucket. It's not fire grilling but another tool to make life easier and add some variety,have made a bunch of food on it with great results. pancakes for the grandkids were easy to do and I let them flip their own

If you attach "a tube of some kind", won't it melt/deform from the heat/hot grease?

 

[JBooker]

A silicone hose should be good for high heat.

 

[James N]

Those are pretty cool griddles and not priced bad either.

 

[MikeCantell]

A high temp hose and it should be fine,will post the results when I get it done,rained here all day any didn't get any thing done I should have,getting older sucks lol

 

[Mike Gray]

I'm debating picking up one of these. The drain issue has me hesitating. Any updates on your mod idea?

 

[MikeCantell]

Made the mod and it works well,they redid the drain and have made them fancy now with lids and draws ,wish I had waited to get the upgraded but mine works just fine ,

 

[LMichaels]

Is the griddle plain steel, stainless steel or coated with non stick?

 

[MikeCantell]

Just plain steel, I wouldn't buy a coated, not sure how well the stainless are made, some of the carts are SS but not sure about the griddle its self, got the grandkids for the next 5 days and it will be put to use several times ,sorry I'm late to reply work gets in the way lol

Almost bought a 36" at the last Black Friday sales but ended up with a Green Mountain Grill Daniel Boone. Next sale...
