Rusty Blackstone Griddle. Big Mistake
Vložit
- čas přidán 22. 08. 2024
- My brother in laws Rusty Blackstone Griddle after 6 months of no use. 6 months ago we took a family vacation to my brother in laws new house in FL. He said he had bought a Blackstone griddle and had not used it in several months. He asked if I could fix it for him. Of course so we repaired his rusty Blackstone griddle. We made a video out of it which is listed below.
I had previously made another video on how to re seaon a flat top grill that would work perfectly for this situation. Sometimes its about re seasoning then it is to strip down and completely redo the process.

I recently got one with a camper I bought. It was in bad shape. I “restored” it with bar keeps friend and some fine steel wool. Little bit of high heat spray paint, and good as new!
hey that's awesome Anthony
I remember the video from when you were down there last. You’ll get it looking brand new in no time! Cheers y’all!
I live in Florida and worked for a yr in Nashville, during that time mine had standing water on the cover for several months. It had several very bad rust spots, far worse than what you have here. I took the cast griddle part to a guy and paid $50 and he sandblasted the whole thing, It was as good as new, I've seasoned and cooked on it numerous times since then and it's as good as it's ever been.
That’s what happens to mine in a week here in Michigan.🤔🤔🤔
Noted. Great Point.
Yeah, I was stationed in... (big spoiler) Orlando for boot camp and first part of A school, back to Panama City Beach a few years later - Florida is just simply humid. It can be 7AM, standing in the shade at 75F and still sweat. Crazy. I also have a cast iron table saw - same thing, gotta maintain year round.
Spot on.
Griddles are so easy to clean there’s just no excuse for rust - especially if it’s got a built in metal cover and then a fabric cover on top of that. After every cook just reheat the surface for two minutes and scrape clean for 1 minute. A well seasoned grill top is a beautiful thing
He has not used in 6 months. this was the first time the cover had been taken off during that time. Crazy he don't cook on it. But that how he rolls.
mine rusted in a few spots like this through the winter here in the pacific northwest because it had rained way to much for me to wa t to be out mine doesnt haveca cover. I was able to clean it up with a pumice stone then i reseasoned it😊
Mine aways shows rust where the meat has cooked ie: burgers. I clean , and re clean . Oil , burn off and re oil and still it rusts. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong
Hello I am new to the flat top world and it is mainly just my husband and I so I decided to try the camp chef versa 2 because of the versatility and size. It is still in the box it just arrived. I live in Idaho. My concern is it did not come with a hard cover. I was wondering how to cover it to keep it from rusting. I do have 1/2 of my deck covered the other half I removed my hot tub and now plan to use it for my cooking area but it is not covered. Any suggestions? Love all of your videos! So helpful to newbies 😊
Definitely need something....If your deck is anything like mine the wind will blow the rain all over the place. Either soft or hard you will need something not sure the way to go Because I dont have one that size but you can ask my awesome Griddle Group in FB and we all types of people with different sizes and brands plus cool ideas to help out.
My local farm and home store has the new 4 burner Pit Boss grill for $499, and they have it on sale for 25% off which comes to $374.25. If you buy it on a Wednesday and you are a senior it is an additional 10% off which comes to $336.82 + tax. That's a deal! Orscheln Farm and Home
Hey Thanks for that. I am sure people would like that information. Thanks
@@TheFlatTopKing You're welcome
Wasn't sure where to ask you this question but love the content. My question is, have you looked at Le Griddle brand flat top? I want to invest in a nice one that will last years and look good. Looking forward to your expert opinion!
KInd of. I am very aware of them but unfortunately I have not been able to cook on one. They look incredible. I cook on a Blackstone, Camp Chef, and Pitboss griddles so far.
Go with the PitBoss non stick ceramic…….. No rust ever!! It’s a dream machine!!
Yeah...we have used one...many months ago..plenty of videos on my channel with it...we also had to get rid of it...the top eventually broke down... completely ruined...I would never use another again...but some like it and some dont...thats what make the world go around..
Mines is worst! Use a sander to get it off.
Still nice 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Absolutely
Does the paint peel off the sides because of the Florida salty air?
Not that i see. Besides the top its clean.
How do you keep bugs off the grill when not using it every time I take the cover off there is bugs stuck on top
Not sure...I have three and dont ever have bugs...and thats surprising since you mentioned you have cover...is your cover infested....just seems odd..DO you have a soft or hard cover
@@TheFlatTopKing soft and it new bought it with the griddle
@@calebjbrinton8084 man honestly i have no clue. If you join our fb group called the griddle group you can ask that question to see if someone can help. Sorry bud.
Is it for sale?
haahaha No
What griddle has a stainless steel cooktop?
There are some. I had a guy named jake spivey on my fb group tell me about his. Not sure the name if it.
Why does he even own it if he doesn't use it?
Im sure when he bought it he planned on using it...look how old this video is...to be 100 honest...it has not moved or been touched since this posted...still same area...a bush has actually grown through the cover....absolutely no clue what it looks like inside...
I have that exact black stone minus the horrible rust lol
HHAHAHAHA it cost extra for it.
I'll just buy a pit boss
Looks like you need a new BIL. lol
That rust just gives you some iron in your diet. Use it or loose it lol
Hahahhaha. Low carb.
That must be close to blasphemy to you Neal.
ahahahah Whats Blasphemy...look at the date...it still have not been used since this video
I can't decide on the best griddle to get!!! someone help!
Well on my channel I cook on three different brands. Hope somehow we can sway you in one direction or another
@@TheFlatTopKing ya...been watchin your channel for a few days now. but i cant quite get a vibe on which one you like best!...? (subscribed)
Love my Blackstone, only complaint is the back mounted drip tray shoved up against the deck railing. PITA to change, if you let it get full. Or leave the cover off for a night and it rains, and gets full.
@@jaredbaratono897 - So Im kinda deciding between 3 different ones.....Blackstone, Camp Chef and PitBoss. I like the amount of cooking space on the Blackstone, but i like the fact the Camp Chef has the built in grill option. The pitboss I like the build quality and attached hard lid.
@@TheFlatTopKing -either way im so jealous of the fact its a Saturday and you can go grill tonight and I cant!!! lol
Hold you phone horizontally PLEASE?
Its a CZcams short….. it is supposed to be shot vertically.
No that's definitely been used.
HHAHHHAHAHA Not since I left it....even had mold of it...
These are garbage. Bought mine last week and used it once. Week later, covered in rust. I cleaned and oiled it after too. Selling it. Never again. I'll stick to my gas grill.
Well hate to hear that...seems like something went wrong....im on my 13 griddle and 7th different brand...haven’t experienced that at all...I also keep cast iron skillets outside as well...
That’s not that bad compared to what mines looked like twice so far lol
haahhaha did you fix it....if so hows it going...
@@TheFlatTopKing yea it’s pretty quick and easy fix, in Virginia Beach its real humid and salty just like florida!
@@raydoee hey I used to live there…. Amy went to college at Christopher Newport, Newport News. I was stationed in Norfolk.
Thank you for your service 🦅🦅🦅🦅
I use it every day and it still rusted. Garbage.
Well...something somewhere is wrong...im on my 8th brand and 13 griddle....very very rare they rust....
He's not using it, what a waste.
Crazy thing is...look at the date of this video..it has not been used since this video was published
I bet if your properly oiled
It after use it wouldn’t do that
well he would have to use it to oil it...maybe the first problem. Been over a year and till hasn't used it. Im not seasoning it again for him..
