cut or worn. Replace damaged hoses be-
fore using griddle. Use only identical replace-
ment part valve/hose/regulator as specied
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 conguration.
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 sufciently 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 retting 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.*
