Valve Check

• Important: Make sure gas is off at LP cylin-

der before checking valves. Knobs lock in OFF

position. To check valves, rst push in knobs

and release, knobs should spring back. If knobs

do not spring back, replace valve assembly

before using griddle. Turn knobs to low position

then turn back to OFF position. Valves should turn

smoothly.

Hose Check

• Before each use, check to see if hoses are

cut or worn. Replace damaged hoses be-

fore using griddle. Use only identical replace-

ment part valve/hose/regulator as specied

in the Parts List of this Use and Care Guide.

General Griddle Cleaning

• Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of

grease and smoke for paint. Apply a strong solution

of detergent and water or use a griddle cleaner with

scrub brush on insides of the griddle and bottom.

Rinse and allow to completely air dry. Do not apply

a caustic griddle/oven cleaner to painted surfaces.

• Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe

dry. Do not use Citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreas-

ers or a concentrated griddle cleaner on plastic

parts. Damage to and failure of parts can result.

• Painted surfaces: Wash with mild detergent

or nonabrasive cleaner and warm soapy wa-

ter. Wipe dry with a soft nonabrasive cloth.

• Stainless steel surfaces: To maintain your

griddle’s high quality appearance, wash with

mild detergent and warm soapy water and

wipe dry with a soft cloth after each use.

• Baked-on grease deposits may require the use

of an abrasive plastic cleaning pad. Use only

in direction of brushed nish to avoid damage.

Do not use abrasive pad on areas with graphics.

• Cooking surfaces: If a bristle brush is used to

clean any of the griddle cooking surfaces, ensure

no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior

to grilling.

11

Storing Your Griddle

• Store in dry location.

• When an LP cylinder is connected to griddle,

store outdoors in a well-ventilated space and out

of reach of children.

• Cover griddle if stored outdoors. Choose

from a variety of griddle covers offered

by manufacturers.

• Store grill indoors ONLY if LP cylinder is turned

off and disconnected, removed from griddle and

stored outdoors.

• When removing griddle from storage, follow

“Cleaning the Burner Assembly” instructions be-

fore starting griddle.

Cleaning the Burner Assembly

Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace

parts of burner assembly or if you have trouble

igniting griddle.

1. Turn gas OFF at control knobs and LP cylinder.

2. Remove carryover tubes and burners.

3. Detach electrode from burner.

NOTE: Removal/Detachment method will

depend on the burner conguration.

4. Carefully lift each burner up and away from

valve openings. We suggest three ways to

clean the burner tubes. Use the one easiest for

you. (A) Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat

hanger works well) into a small hook. Run the

hook through each burner tube several times.

(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a exible

handle (do not use a brass wire brush), run the

brush through each burner tube several times.

(C) Wear eye protection: Use an air hose to

force air into the burner tube and out the burner

ports. Check each port to make sure air comes

out each hole.

5. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to

remove food residue and dirt.

6. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as

an open paper clip.

7. Check burner for damage, due to normal wear

and corrosion some holes may become en-

larged. If any large cracks or holes are found

replace burner.

VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must

reengage valve openings.

8. Attach electrode to burner.

9. Carefully replace burners.

10. Attach burners to brackets on rebox.

11. Reposition carryover tubes and attach to burners.

Food Safety

Food safety is a very important part of enjoying the

outdoor cooking experience. To keep food safe from

harmful bacteria, follow these four basic steps:

Clean: Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot

soapy water before and after handling raw meat

and poultry.

Separate: Separate raw meats and poultry from

ready-to eat foods to avoid cross contamination.

Use a clean platter and utensils when removing

cooked foods.

Cook: Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill

bacteria. Use a thermometer to ensure proper

internal food temperatures.

Chill: Refrigerate prepared foods and leftovers

promptly. For more information Visit the Canadian

partnership for Consumer Food Safety Education-

www.befood safe.ca.

How To Tell If Meat Is Grilled Thoroughly

• Meat and poultry cooked on a griddle often

browns very fast on the outside. Use a meat

thermometer to be sure food has reached a safe

internal temperature, and cut into food to check

for visual signs of being done.

• Whole poultry should reach 165° F/74°C. Juices

should run clear and esh should not be pink.

• Hamburgers made of any ground meat or

poultry should reach 160° F/71°C , and be

brown in the middle with no pink juices. Beef,

veal and lamb steaks, roasts and chops can be

cooked to 145° F/63°C . All cuts of pork should

reach 160° F/71°C.

• NEVER partially grill meat or poultry and nish

cooking later. Cook food completely to destroy

harmful bacteria.

• When reheating takeout foods or fully cooked

meats like hot dogs, grill to 165° F/64°C , or until

steaming hot dogs, grill to 165°F/74°C, or until

steaming hot.

Regularly clean your grill between uses and especially after extended periods of storage.

Ensure that the grill and its components are sufciently cool before cleaning.

• Never handle hot parts with unprotected hands.

• In order to extend and maintain the life and condition of your grill, we strongly recommend

that the unit be covered when left outside for any length of time, especially during the

winter months.

Burner maintenance:

In most circumstances, burning off the residue after cooking will keep the burner clean. The burner should

be removed and cleaned annually or whenever heavy build-up is found in order to ensure that there is

no blockage (debris, insects) in either the burner portholes or venture tubes. Use pipe cleaner to clear

obstructions. A wire brush can be used to remove corrosion from the burner surfaces. When retting the

burner, be careful to check that the venture tubes of the burner t over the valve outlets.

Fittings and Storage:

Annual checking and tightening of metal ttings is recommended. Store the grill in a cool dry place. Cover

the burners with aluminum foil in order to prevent insects or other debris from collecting in the burner holes.

If the grill is to be stored indoors, the gas bottle must be disconnected and left outside. The gas bottle should

always be stored outside, out of reach of children, and in a dry, well-ventilated area away from any sources

of heat or ignition.

GRIDDLE SEASONING GUIDE

What is Seasoning?

Seasoning is a process by which oil is baked into

metal to create a stick-resistant surface and protect

against oxidization.

Blackstone Griddles come with a thin layer of soy oil

on them to protect against rust during shipping. This

may leave some blemishes and discoloration on your

griddle top. This is normal and will all even out during

the seasoning process.

What oil should I use?

For your initial seasoning you can use any oil that

you have on hand. It’s important that whatever oil you

choose, make sure that you spread it out very thin on

your griddle top. Here is a list of the most commonly

used oils in no particular order.

• Flax Oil

• Extra Virgin Olive Oil

• Canola Oil

• Vegetable Oil

• Shortening

Initial Griddle Seasoning:

The basic idea behind your initial seasoning is to coat

your griddle with a very thin coating of oil and heat

the oil above its smoke point to polymerize the oil and

create a bond with the griddle top. You will end up with

a black, stick-resistance surface that is easy to clean

and protects it from corrosion.

1. Use a damp cloth and wipe off the griddle top to

remove and dust or debris. Dry

2. Apply a small amount of oil (about 2-3 Tablespoons)

to the surface of the griddle top and spread it

around with a paper towel.

3. Turn your griddle on medium-high heat

4. Heat the oil to its “smoke point” and let it continue

to heat on the griddle top until it stops smoking.

Your griddle top will start to discolor. This is good.

5. When the oil stops smoking (about 20-25 minutes),

turn your griddle off and let it cool enough to do

another coat of oil.

6. Repeat steps 2 through 4 a few times until you

have a nice dark surface on your griddle.

NOTE: Don’t worry if it’s not all completely black. Once you’ve

done a few initial seasonings just cooking on your griddle will

maintain your seasoning layer and add to it.

Cleaning and Maintaining your Griddle

To clean the griddle after each use, scrape gently with

a metal spatula or scraper and wipe down the griddle

surface with a cloth or paper towel. For tough food

residue, pour water onto the hot griddle surface and

let it boil the residue off.

After you are done using your griddle you should

apply a very thin coat of cooking oil to maintain

your seasoning bond and protect it from rust. Store

your griddle in a cool, dry place. A cover is highly

recommended to protect your griddle.

What a well seasoned Griddle should look like

Your well seasoned griddle should be shiny black and

have a natural non-stick cooking surface. The more

you cook with your griddle, the more black, non-stick

and shiny it will become.

Removing Rust

If rust appears on the griddle surface, rub it off with

steel wool or high grit sandpaper and re-season the

surface. Take care to always completely dry your

griddle before storing and keep away from rain and

sprinklers. Make sure that after every use you apply

a thin coat of oil on your griddle top to protect against

oxidization.

Removing Scaling

Scaling occurs when your seasoning bond comes

loose from your griddle top and chips away. Rub off

the chipped seasoning with steel wool or high grit

sandpaper and re-season the surface.

Q. What types of cooking oils can I use to season my griddle?

A. We recommend the following oils for seasoning purposes: olive oil, vegetable oil, canola oil, coconut oil

and sesame oil. Lard can also be used to season the griddle top. Refer to page 19 for griddle seasoning

instructions.

Q. Can I use dish detergent to clean my griddle?

A. Grease cutting dish detergents will erase the seasoning on the griddle. For tough spots use table salt

and hot water.

Q. Why does my griddle surface look dull and dry instead of shiny and black?

A. Season is a continuous process. Over time and the more often you season your griddle top, the more

shiny, black and non-stick it will become.

Q: Can I cut directly on the griddle top?

A:Yes, you can. Cutting on the griddle top will not harm it.

Q: What type of battery does the igniter require?

A: The igniter requires a AA battery with the positive side facing out towards you. The cap has an image

and battery label on it.

Q. What if my griddle starts to rust?

A. If rust appears on the griddle surface, rub it off with steel wool or low grain sandpaper and re-season

the surface. Take care to always completely dry your griddle before storing and keep away from rain and

sprinklers.

*CUSTOMERS IN HUMID OR COASTAL CLIMATES MAY REQUIRE MORE FREQUENT SEASONINGS AND THE USE OF

HEAVIER COOKING OILS TO AVOID RUSTING AND CORROSION.*
