Just got a 2 burner Camp Chef Explorer a week ago from Cabela's with a barbecue and flat griddle additions. Cooked up my first steaks on it yesterday. Works great.
Looks great.. and cooked to YOUR preference .. people always have complaints about what others prefer.. he didn’t cook it for you!! Great video and great Steak
@@fightingclowns I agree with you. He gets mad at people in the comments talking about the temperature of his steak. But you can hear it in the tone of his voice "mines done nice, none of that rare stuff" Why not just say we personally enjoy a medium steak.
Lots of people world wide. Cool to hear, which reminds me pizza oven I need to get making again, always tasty. Enjoy cooking🥞🥓🍳🍔🌯🌮🥪🥙🍖🌭🍗🍤🍸😋 . Thanks for watching and commenting
Great video, steaks look great also. I love cooking steaks, have cooked on gas, charcoal, smoke, cast iron skillets and oven, getting ready to purchase a flat top and came across your video, great job
you all prolly dont give a shit but does anyone know a method to get back into an instagram account?? I was dumb lost the password. I would love any tips you can give me!
@Harlem Joey I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
To me those steaks were cooked perfect. I have two porterhouse I am hoping to cook the same exact way! Just wished I knew exactly how long you kept them on there.......but I have a thermometer...I will use it. Thanks for the bacon grease idea!
It's own juices meaning not on a grate where juices drip through. Pig juice 🤣🤣. Sometimes my thoughts don't convey to words so smoothly when filming. 🍻
I have a question about this griddle: My question deals with the design of the outer areas, and the chance that it would work with a wooden table built around the griddle on 3 sides? I was thinking that if I got this same griddle I would like it to be out in the middle of the patio with my guests sitting facing me at a surround table that allows me to place the food on their plates without turning around. I would also get to face my guests as I cook. But I wanted to know if the design of the griddle would allow a wooden table to surround it?
Looks good, Brian. So the question is: Which Camp Chef flat top grill do you prefer? The FTG600 4 burner flat top or this Pro 90X? I know the differences. The Pro 90X is portable and has higher output burners and a windscreen, but the griddle is an option along with the drip tray. The FTG600 is a larger unit with more cooking surface, but not real portable. But which one do you prefer if you were to buy only one of them? Thanks.
Ok after having both now, hands down the FTG600 4 burner flat top for the patio, nice even heat, micro adjust griddle levelers and shelves. The Pro 90X is the next best thing when you want portability with lots of cooking options. Thanks enjoy the outdoors
My Woodwind caught fire (Due to not cleaning), and promptly ignited the grease trap bucket. My grill looked like one of those busted oil rigs during the first Iraq war.
The sizzle! Thank you for watching and commenting. I do have a question. Why don't I see comments or where to leave a comment any more? I do get the comments that viewers leave me but I don't see them, either when I'm logged in or not.
Steaks look great. The Blackstone puts their grease runoff now in the rear, main reason is to scrape the splattering grease AWAY from you instead of towards you. It has a catch-it cup just like the Camp Chef does and you can collect all your bacon grease exactly like the Camp Chef does. Actually, I think it's a better patent now to scrape that grease in a direction away from you. Works great.
If your griddle is back to a wall how hard would it be to get to the rear grease trap. I dont have a griddle yet. I'm still weighing the pros and cons of the blackstone and the camp chef. I'm leaning towards the camp chef for several reasons.
You should get yourself a couple of the hamburger/steak/bacon heavy weights to hold those steaks down for a nice, flat sear. Best short order cook I knew always used them when she fried ribeyes.
Just a little to done. But over all really good veido. I would do three and two minutes on that second side. Just because they looked under 2inches thick.
You are correct. I did use bacon fat but also there is beef fat cooking out, I was trying to get across the point that there is a different flavor from grilled to griddle. Thank you
Yes that should be done. Just depends if you want it portable and then there are accessories for the Pro90 X. A person needs to ask themselves how, what and where do I want to cook? Thanks for watching 👀
The two burners on the left are almost turned all the way down and right side turned as low as it goes. 0:49 I show the burner knobs. Thank you for asking and watching
How thick of steaks? I go by the feel of the steak (soft, hard). They say to pinch your hand between thumb and pointer finger, far outside is rare than as you pinch moving in on your hand the medium>well. These steaks were so thin hard to cook to any less done. Thanks for asking and watching
@@BrianEibner they are probably half inch to 3/4 inch thick. I'm doing them tomorrow for Memorial Day. I've done steak several times but can't get it right LOL. Thanks for the great videos. And replying so fast.
@@jzona8956 So pretty thin. Just remember they will continue to cook while resting so pull them off the heat 5-10 degrees (depending how big/thick) before reaching desired done temp. You got this 👍🍻, also pull out of frig before cooking let rest at room temp for a bit (depending how thick & room temp).
I don't think you would want to turn burners to high. There are 3 burners each burner is 30,000 BTU. I only used high to boil water, remember this is a three burner stove. 🍻
Either have I. Yes I used bacon grease but I also meant the beef grease from the steak on flat top compared to on a grate. Thanks for commenting and watching 🍻
Thank you for your post. VERRRRRY hard to find vids of Camp Chef Flat top on a Two or three Burner STOVE. Thank you...would be nice to have TOTAL time on each side and maybe an internal temp when you pulled them. Nice Looking steaks. I have the 2 Burner Explorer and the Griddle covers Both burners. Love it and REALLY appreciate ANY videos using it. As I said they are RARE...so thanks, again!
I like everything from blue to well done. Blue is squidgy and not very appetising but nice in thin strips with dressing. A major problem I find when doing rare the damn thing is cold when I'm halfway through eating eat. Medium is usually best option. Rare is considered sweetspot for max juiciness and flavour by most chefs but if its good steak you can get away with any doneness bar cremation.
Yeah these steaks pretty thin. Hard to cook any rarer. I do have a question. Why don't I see comments or where to leave a comment any more? I do get the comments that viewers leave me but I don't see them, either when I'm logged in or not.
@@BrianEibner I see it, that looks awesome. But... it is an enclosed space. Why is that safer than inside the house? Is it because the cook shack isn't as "air tight"? Great videos, btw.
@@themistermax That's my thought "not close to air tight" and ridge vent. It does get a little hot, summer & sunny and then cooking. Really makes outdoor cooking all year possible (being comfortable) in Minnesota. 🍻
Yes you are correct. I did use bacon fat but also there is beef fat cooking out, I was trying to get across the point that there is a different flavor from grilled to griddle. Thank you
Thanks for the video. I'm currently considering buying either a Blackstone 36" or the Camp Chef 36" griddle. I also appreciate that you cook the steaks to Medium.. I really can't stand those rare medium rare steaks they look absolutely raw
Mike Brown. They both do the same thing. I have had camp chef products in the past and loved them. I went with Blackstone and I am happy with it. I am sure I'd be just as happy with CC.
Over cooked for you but he wasn't cooking it for you so for you to say they are to done is your opinion, if you cooked a steak for him he would say it was way under done, I cringe when out to eat with people and they order their steak well done but if that's the way they like it more power to them. Furthermore he did say Medium, and I have been eating steaks for a long time and it may have been a little more then med, maybe med well but there was still some pink in the middle.

But, he didn’t have to run everyone else down, in the process.
Jesus you guys are sensitive. It's steak bruh. There's no "wrong" way to cook them.
I enjoyed the video. You're right, he can cook it the way he wants it, but don't say you like your steak medium and cook it to medium well to well.
That's how I like them done as well. Nice job.

Looks good to me!
Thank you
That looks bomb !!! Not to rare perfect 👍

I did not realize that cooking a steak “in its own juices” required pig juice.

There's two ways to enjoy steaks:
1.) Medium rare.
2.) Get the eff out of my house.

Thank you, I normally buy thicker steaks, but they were tasty.
The steak isn’t cooking in its own juices. Bacon is pork. Steak is beef.
You are correct. I did use bacon fat but also there is beef fat cooking out, I was trying to get across the point that there is a different flavor from grilled to griddle. Thank you
A steak cooked in its own bacon fat juices🤔 genius!
😋😋👍
I do love beef bacon, soo goood :)
perfect steak bud. i like adding butter, but that bacon grease looks amazing as well
👍🥓
Your steak looked perfect. Good job.
How compare the Pro 90X with griddle vs FTG600 ?
Yes that should be done. Just depends if you want it portable and then there are accessories for the Pro90 X. A person needs to ask themselves how, what and where do I want to cook? Thanks for watching 👀

Over cooked for you but he wasn't cooking it for you so for you to say they are to done is your opinion, if you cooked a steak for him he would say it was way under done, I cringe when out to eat with people and they order their steak well done but if that's the way they like it more power to them. Furthermore he did say Medium, and I have been eating steaks for a long time and it may have been a little more then med, maybe med well but there was still some pink in the middle.
