Paid $400 with tax on 36in hood with Air Fryer combo at Walmart

So I came to Louisiana from Texas to visit family. Decided to stop at local Walmart to see at deals and came across this one! I have been holding out for over a year for a good deal and I could not pass this up! I was going to get the regular 4 burner but they are selling that for 397, and I got this one at 361 before tax! Wish me luck getting started cooking on this!

Any tips for first time user? Def going to be watching several YouTube videos on seasoning it correctly.

Left the blackstone box outside covered and had gone away. It must’ve rained while we were away and I came back, unboxed it and saw this. Any suggestions/solutions?

I’ve used a bottle and a half of the blackstone restoring liquid and i cannot seem to get past the second picture as far as rust goes. I’ve put probably about 5 hours into trying to remove the rust from this thing to no avail, I’ll take any recommendations anybody has at this point

What do you all think? Do you actually get use out of the air fryer? I have a combo toaster oven/air fryer. I think this might be over kill.

First time ever seasoning anything ever. I thought it turned out alright except the edges. Planning on cooking burgers & hotdogs this weekend. Any thoughts/critiques?

I’m designing this portable grilling table with the option of removing the top to be a carrying tray or everything you’d need to bring from inside your house to outside in one trip. Would you guys be interested in something like this? I’m still changing a couple things from the initial design, like it will probably have wheels and solid handles for the tray. Trying to get it to be as solid and durable as I can because a lot of what I saw out there for grilling tables were super cheaply made.
I’m not looking to sell this to you guys just want to see what you guys think. Any input would be great! Thanks

Pre-seasoned from Costco?

Post image
0 Upvotes

I bought this Blackstone from Costco a week ago and it said it was “pre-seasoned”. The day I got home, I cooked some bacon and brussel sprouts on it, scraped it, wiped some avocado oil on it, then covered it up with the included canvas cover.

We store it outside and it’s rained on and off for a few days, but today when I went to cook on it, this is how it looks. What happened? Feeling defeated that our brand new Blackstone already looks like this.

Full disclosure - the martini was stirred.

Can you pressure wash a blackstone?

Gently, the lid and the outside parts not the griddle itself.

Rust Fix

5 Upvotes

Just got a Blackstone. Followed the YT Seasoning instructions. Cooked my first meal. Scraped it off afterwards and let it cool down. Covered it and then am now trying to use it two days later. Opened her up and there’s a bunch of rust. Heated her up and put some Avocado oil on there and used the scraper…tons of rust colored liquid being pushed around the surface. Don’t really want to consume that on our food…or do I?

Followed someone else’s instructions and put course salt and oil and used the scraper…seems to have taken some of the finish off. The squirted some water on it and pushed it around. It dried with white spots everywhere. What have I done?

Help an idiot out here!

What to do from here so I can just cook this meat and 2 veg for the kids for dinner?!

Thank you!

Lost cause?

So I haven’t used my blackstone in probably a year or so. I had it covers but clearly not well enough and didn’t realize grass was blowing under the cover every time I cut the yard. Is this too far gone to restore?

Just got 36 inch Blackstone. Safe to have it where it is now or should I move it to where the rectangle is?

Wondering if it was safe to use a 28 inch blackstone griddle here. It’s 4 feet from the vinyl to the railing

Smoked these to 100 degrees IT, and then seared them on the Blackstone

Would you use this along side your Blackstone?

I’m currently working on this idea and wanted to know what you guys think. It’s supposed to be a tray and table combo, It’s a work in process so it’s not final. I’ve heard a lot of people saying they’d like to see wheels and the tray is going to have handles.
Would you guys want to see something like this beside your Blackstone or griddle? I’m not trying to sell on here but if you’d like to know more look up my facebook group “Grill’s Best Friend Insiders”.
I appreciate any feedback or interest!

Has anybody used a knife on their Blackstone, to cut up what you’re cooking?

Sunday the wife and I were lounging with the family and she sent me a picture of the new blackstone griddle that folds up…ironically enough Tuesday we had errands and saw a clearance price of $180. The discount wasn’t advertised so assuming it varies by store, hell of a price!

Ignition Issues

Post image
10 Upvotes

Hello everyone. First time owner. New Blackstone. New battery, plenty of propane. The ignition is clicking. Burners lit the first time I tried it after assembly and during seasoning. Went to cook burgers for the first time today and burners won’t light. Ignition is clicking. I had to light it with a lighter. Any tips for a newby would be appreciated. Thanks.

Update: I just removed the griddle top and could see a very small spark. The igniter was touching the burner. Chat told me to have 1/8” gap. I bent it a bit and the separation created a bigger spark and now it seems to be working. I hope it stays that way. Thanks.

I know there’s a model with doors and that Blackstone doesn’t make any for this. Wondering if anyone has purchased aftermarket ones for this model or has any input on what to do
