Top 5 Griddle Tips
Cooking on an outdoor griddle can be a fantastic way to prepare a variety of meals. Here are the top 5 Tips to enhance your griddle cooking experience:
1.**Fuel** - Have plenty of good quality propane fuel on hand to finish the cook. Running out of propane during a cook, especially with guests over is always embarrassing. Have a fresh Blue Rhino tank on hand. When you run out, just switch to the fresh tank and exchange the empty tank at your convenience at any of the 60,000 Blue Rhino tanks exchange locations nationwide.

2.**Preheat Properly**: Preheating your griddle ensures even cooking. Allow it to heat for about 5-10 minutes before adding any food. This helps in achieving a consistent temperature across the surface.
3.**Oil Management**: Use a high smoke point oil (like avocado oil) to prevent food from sticking and burning. Lightly coat the griddle before cooking and keep a bottle of oil handy for quick application as needed.
4.**Zone Cooking**: Create different heat zones on your griddle by adjusting the burners. This allows you to sear meats on high heat and cook vegetables or keep food warm on lower heat areas.
5.**Proper Cleaning and Maintenance**: After cooking, scrape off any food residue while the griddle is still warm using a griddle scraper. For thorough cleaning, use warm water and a scrapper, avoiding soap to maintain seasoning. Regularly season your griddle with oil to prevent rust and keep it non-stick.
These hacks will help you make the most of your outdoor griddle, ensuring delicious and evenly cooked meals every time.
