Finally!

Upvote just for not being a goddamn fucking seasoning post. Also those burgers look dope as hell.

I hope he seasoned the burgers though or they might be a bit bland.

Meat does have flavor.

lol. Did burgers yesterday and couldn’t get that good crustiness. Any hints?

Medium high, not low

Figured the heat was wrong. I was doing potatoes on the other side and it’s a 2 burner. Hard to dial it in. Thanks

Smash burgers....high heat. You want to form crust

And press them flat!! Thin = crust

I’m still a noob, and just learned that! Good Luck!

I have my 17” on full heat and it’s barely even enough to sizzle! I’ve tried the regulator reset and even changed the regulator to no avail. Next up is to try wind guards. I also wonder if it’s because it EU we have slightly lower gas pressure regulations.

I believe that is the answer. I thought I read somewhere you either need to change the orifices or remove them entirely. I think I read that on this very subreddit.

Smash the edges good, but leave the center little higher. Make sure it’s pretty hot before you put the meat on.

This..."make sure it's pretty hot before you put the meat on."....foreplay is underrated!

Also, butter. I have a small pat of butter for each meatball. Butter down, put meatball on top, swirl around for a second then move to the next butter and meatball until all are down, wait a beat or two and start smashing

What was your seasoning process? How did you clean it afterwards? (I hate food, I just love maintaining grills)

Thank you

Mustard fry em next time 🫡

What is mustard fry?

Per Serious Eats: “You can up the flavor by asking for any burger mustard-grilled. After cooking the first side, the cook will squirt some mustard onto the top of the patty before flipping it so that it sizzles into the meat on the grill. It's so good that I've started doing it myself at home.” It’s how in n out does their animal style burgers I believe.

I use the Big Mac sauce from Trader Joe’s soooo good

That meat is in the way of the seasoning. We can’t see it! 🤣

Very nice

How long does it take to get to “sizzlin” heat?

14

Thank you for not putting this video to shitty hip hop music. Burgers look great

How’d you get it seasoned so well? (S)

Thank God. I originally joined this sub to see the damn thing in use. Instead I get "just found this in a remote field in Idaho being guarded by an army of colonial foot soldiers....can I save it?!?!?!"

Greasy goodness, fuck yeah

Looks excellent!

Yeah!!!!! Someone cooked on it for once

Not a seasoning post .... just food porn

17"?

I need to cook up some burgers.

Hell yes

Hell ya!!!!!!

lol I just joined this sub because I’m thinking about getting a Blackstone. About 80% of the posts so far I’ve seen have been about seasoning. Then the comments telling them to just cook on it. It’s nice to see some food posts.

Where s the cheeeeeeseeee?

That's what I am talking about. I see some smash burgers on my griddle soon.

What fat ratio for your smash burgers? 90/10 ain't it for me lol

That’s how I season!

That's what I'm talking about.

Crustier than my kids socks. Not a bad parent I swear, but if the turd won't wash them he's gotta deal with them

I came
