How to Season a Flat Top Grill
Seasoning your flat top grill properly will protect the grill and make it naturally non-stick. It's a very simple, essential step that can make a world of difference.
Equipment
- Flat top grill like a Blackstone or LoCo Cooker
Materials
- Tongs
- Paper towels
- Vegetable oil
Instructions
- Wipe flat top griddle clean with a paper towel or soft cloth to remove any surface objects
- Turn heat on as high as possible, and let it burn for 15 minutes
- Lay down a thin layer of vegetable oil and using a set of tongs and paper towel, spread oil out into a thin layer all over including the edges and outside of the griddle. You should now be seeing smoke coming off the griddle.
- When smoke stops, (roughly 20 minutes) repeat process above
- Repeat 3 more times, for a total of 4 times until your cooking surface turns black over the majority of the cooking surface.
