BLACKSTONE4114 Griddle Seasoning and Cast Iron Conditioner, 6.5 Ounce

I have a Weber S-435 natural gas grill. I bought the griddle attachment. It's carbon steel, not cast iron, but the two materials share quite a few features, including the fact that, if not properly maintained, they are not very non-stick, and - worse - they can rust. So, I bought this seasoning / protectant material.I cleaned off the new griddle, which was shiny grey in color, then turned the grill up to maximum heat (three burners on this grill are under the griddle), waited till the griddle began to discolor, then added a tablespoon of this seasoning mix. I quickly spread it around using a rolled up paper towel held in grill tongs. I left the lid open (the videos I watched don't say anything about what to do with the lid). After the smoke had died down, I repeated the seasoning. I did this three times, and it worked reasonably well but: (i) the corners of the griddle were not as dark as the center, presumably because the burners focus on the center part of the griddle; and (ii) even then, the center was brown, not black. I measured the griddle temperature using an infrared thermometer; it was about 520 F. So, I seasoned it again, BUT this time I closed the grill lid after wiping the griddle with the seasoning. Left it for five minutes, then opened the lid. What a difference closing the lid made. Griddle temp was about 100 F higher (around 630F), and the entire griddle was very dark, almost black - just like in the videos :-)I did it twice more (closing the lid), then turned off the grill, let the griddle cool to around 350F, wiped on a thin coat of seasoning, and let the grill cool completely. The griddle looks great. Closed and covered the grill, and now I'm ready for my weekend cookout!

Prepping a griddle is very important so I got the best. Easy to follow instructions and process for getting your griddle ready for cooking.

Love this Blackstone griddle seasoning. I'm on my second container and it makes the griddle season up great. Get about 4 or 5 good coats on it for the first time using the griddle.

Used this to season my new griddle and it gave a nice, even layer with a solid non-stick surface. A little goes a long way, and it’s also great for maintaining cast iron. No strong smell and easy to wipe on. Reliable product for keeping your cooking surface in top shape.

Why have I not purchased this sooner? Griddle on our camper was always a pain even after seasoning with just oils. Used on last camping trip and the next morning I made the most beautiful pancakes!

took time but it worked.can use avocado oil periodically from now onHave to say, this was a re-season and it all went much easier using this product that the first time doing a seasoning with just avocado oil.Granted, I can now use the avocado oil for the preventative seasonings after a handful of uses.This was a small 17" Blackstone griddle... one for use with our RV.The only reason for re-seasoning is it sat having warranty work done on it from October to just a week ago and the griddle got in sort of rough shape (as I didn't clean it as well as I should have before sending it for warranty work, thinking it would only be there for a couple weeks).Just the same, I wish I had used the Blackstone Griddle seasoning the first time I did this.

Great accessory if you buy the black stone grill. This is nice to use for the grill if you cook something that is fatty/ greasy. It helps solidify the grease and fat and makes for easier cleanup. My husband likes to use it

I like it for seasoning my cast-iron skillet
