Yeah, she stopped falling for that one years ago....
One day I'll just grab it when I'm solo.
I'm sure I can live in the box it comes in for a few days.
If she is anything like my wife, just buy her some shoes. Of course, it may take lots of shoes - the last time I tried it, she said one pair was not nearly enough to let me get that pbc...
funny how the video ComfortablyNumb posted about seasoning the griddle says oil doesnt matter, and this guy says flax seed is by far superior..they both work for blackstone it appears..anyone have opinions on the oil ? Brewmaster ? I'll probably just use canola or extra virgin olive oil i have on hand
I used to use flax on my cast iron but I found that it goes rancid quickly. In my experience this results in a fishy smell and off-tastes in your food. I prefer to use avocado oil which is my go-to vegetable oil for high heat.
I picked up the same one at Walmart a couple weeks ago and love it! I followed the video on the Blackstone site and seasoned with flaxseed oil. It worked well but I would never use it to season something indoors. The smoke was really acrid and I needed to take a shower when finished. I'm not sure that another oil wouldn't have worked as well. Even after seasoning it took a few cooks until it was truly non-stick. Enjoy the new toy!
There are 36†4 burners at Walmart by me for $174 and it killed me a little to not get one. Lukewarm reception by the finance committee. All is not lost though. I’m working on something else way better (see more expensive)
Well I comprised and picked up the Lodge 14†CI pizza pan which I immediately brought home and made smash burgers on over the vortex. Worked really well and I think I’m going to be just fine.
JOE E checked online the walmarts close to me to see if they were in stock. If they said in stock online i tried to call to confirm becuse i ended up driving over an hour to a Walmart that had them in stock online but they didn't have them when i got there....finally i bought online for in store pick up ....then they canceled my order saying they were out of stock....tried again a couple days later and got a confirmation to pick up! Just look online at all walmarts around you.....good luck
Sam's has their Members Mark 36" on sale right now for $199. Wifey brought me one home on Sunday. Wouldn't let me get the Blackstone on clearance at Walmart for $184 but was ok spending $199 at Sam's. Go figure.
