Big Breakfast on the Weber Slate Griddle

- This big breakfast on the Weber Slate griddle is our first official cook on the new Weber griddle… and we did it BIG with our homemade griddle pancakes, crispy hashbrowns, sausage, bacon, and over easy eggs. I recommend doing a big breakfast with all the fixin’s when you get a new griddle, because it’s a great way to learn about the hot and cool spots on your griddle, the temperature zones, and whether or not your griddle temp will creep up on you during a long cook.
So this big griddle breakTfast was all about learning how the Weber Slate 30” griddle performs… and I must say, the temperature stayed pretty dang even! Overall, GREAT first cook and delicious breakfast!

We had a restaurant with a couple of flat tops. Even the institutional brands don't evenly heat. You just learn to cook around the hot spots. LOL
I plan on getting one next week. Love the vids.
Have loved this griddle so far, has been great to cook with. Does exactly what I want it to do 😃
Impressed with the surface and accessories. Now I’m starving!🤤🤤
Those pancakes came out looking perfect on that griddle!
What a great Dad!
Great video thanks for your input and sharing your knowledge. Looking fwd to the hash browns instruction video! Nicely done mate!
Grest video as always, Boss. There is a lot of good information in there. Love breakfast like that any time of day. 😊
Excellent. Thank you!!
Great griddle instruction again, of course then the great cooking.
Excellent information and tips.
Well done Neil. That was a great first cook. I'm considering getting another grill and will consider this one.
Great presentation Weber makes a great product and your video clearly demonstrates that 👍🏼
Thank you! Sounds like, looks like this is a pretty good griddle!
Great job Neil. It was very interesting in seeing you make breakfast on your griddle using the different techniques.
I've had mine a few weeks weeks now and love it. My first few cooks have been in 50deg rainy weather with no problems in maintaining temps. I'm looking forward to summer cooks.
Fantastic MID-NITE CHOW RUN. Great job Neil and Amy you two do awesome videos and recipes and have a great time together. Keep up the great videos and recipes, we appreciate the work you all do around there. Fred.
Looks amazing and healthy!
Thank you so much for your honest opinion. This looks like a winner griddle and an even more winner big breakfast cook. 👏 Great job!
Excellent breakfast Neal! I totally could tell the middle runs hotter as you mentioned. It's so evident when you flipped the bacon. Really a great review as always!
Yup, I'm sold on getting a slate! I was already looking at it and watched your review video and this one. I'm very impressed compared to the first one they put out.
Great video, Neal. Congratulations to your daughter! Breakfast looks great and we learned that we probably are cooking our bacon too high. We didn't think it would crisp up on a lower temp.
Nice review II like the demonstration of the hot spots. I've seen before the slicing of sausage from the tube. Really nice idea. I am a Jimmy Deans fan.
Great job, good cook, looks banging.
I love ❤❤❤ my 36 inch griddle! Thank you!🎉🎉🎉❤
I’ve got to stop watching your videos at night. Dang it now I’m hungry again. Breakfast is my favorite meal. Great griddle cook as usual. Super video. Thanks.
Never stop
I have learned a ton watching your channel and I have the 36-inch Slate ordered at my local Ace. First griddle for me!
hey thats awesome...congrats
Good video guys,, congratulations to your daughter ! You are making me hungry. It's time here in Montana , I can use my Blackstone any day now. THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA......
I'm impressed with this first cook. No sticking and generally even cooking throughout, start to finish. Great job again, you guys!
Ty
Definitely looks 🔥 nice job with the new griddle Neal! Cheers 🍻
Thanks
Love your videos. Speaking for myself, the best way I found to make my hash-browns was to either bake in foil or slow boil my whole potatoes ahead of time (planning...I know) cool them, refrigerate for a couple of hours, peel and shred them. Sounds like a lot of work but not so much. Then either use them or freeze for later. Cooked and perfectly crispy every time.
You did it again, Neil. Great griddle, great breakfast and great presentation. And, as always, great camera work, Amy. You two have got it going on. Congratulations to your daughter on her cheerleading win!
TY
Very impressed with heat on the weber low was low and you cooked everything to perfection.
Glad you enjoyed it
Always enjoy the videos! I’m holding out (very impatiently) for the 36”. Look forward to seeing your next cook!
Camp chef comes out soon
Don't have to hold out. Blackstone already has one.
Love your stuff man!
Glad you enjoy it!
Love the videos.
Go NAVY!
THANKS for feeding us!
I like your conclusion that even though there are some hot spots on the top, once you load it up with food it seems to even out. That seems to be the same thing that happens on my Evo. Good video, and I stand by my prior comments that your hashbrowns always kick my hash brown's fannies! Nice work Neal.
Thanks bud...
Congrats "Cheerdad !" Makes me wanna do a big breakfast again soon - I think I will
Thhanks so much. Bought one today
Hope you enjoy it!
I really shouldn't watch these videos on an empty stomach ;-) Great fun to watch.
Excellent review Brotha 🫡
Shoot now I want Breakfast for Dinner!! Nice addition to your arsenal, Cheers Y’all 👊🏼😎🤙🏼
Breakfast looks yummy! 👍🏼 well done
Thank you
I'm a little bit new at the griddling and I do love my outdoor 36-in griddle and my indoor 21 inch griddle. One day I'm going to have to try making multiple items at one time like this. So far while I am new at it I have been only cooking a whole surface full of one item at a time. As a single guy it doesn't really matter too much sometimes, but I definitely would love to make a whole breakfast at once or some whole meal at once instead of making them item by item.
Great video. I love my 36 inch slate, I am about to do my 3rd cook on it. Weber gets stock on the 36 but it doesn't last. I suggest anyone who wants a 36 to call them, don't use the website. I ordered mine on April 12th, they had 5 in stock and the website said out of stock.
I have seen the slightly high spot you reference, but when I actually cook it does not show up in my food. I have filled it with bacon from edge to edge twice, I even had bacon on either side of the grease trap.. Only those pieces and the front right corner were low After 2 cooks I feel good enough about the temperature and the knobs that I don't even care about my IR thermometer.
Thank you for your service to our country and your service to us cooks :)
I have the 36” slate also. Love it so far cooks very even. What dial setting are you using mostly? I’m finding a little higher than in between low and medium is my sweet spot so far.
I just ordered the 36 inch Slate . Its on backorder but i cannot wait to get it . Ive been a lifeling Blackstone guy but the looks of the Slate has pulled me in lol . Great video brother guys !!
Awesome bud...hope you enjoy...cant imagine you wont...
One killer looking breakfast
thanks bud
Great looking breakfast! Hash Browns, Pancakes! How about a video of the perfect griddle. This one has the best griddle, this is the best heat distribution, the best grease catch placement etc
Great video and great info as always. I think with the price of the 36 slate I would have to go with the Flatrock. But I do love my Webers.
Try Purnell’s “Old Folks” sausage. You’ll never go back! Great video! 👍🇺🇸🍺
Great looking hashbrowns Neil. We have never been thick pancake people. We love a thin sourdough flat Jack's. Looks like the weber is a keeper. I still enjoy my original camp chef griddle. There is no better was to cook bacon.
Great video and awesome cooking as always. Now let's do a comparison between the Webber Slate Griddle + Camp Chef + Blackstone. Big Ups to you guys from Weymouth Massachusetts.
Great breakfast cook review! I read between the lines on your first review and got one. Love the build and the features. I seasoned with just one thin coat of grape seed oil then cooked a bunch of onions with avocado oil covering the whole surface. The onions did cook even. I am also getting the hot spot in the middle but turning down the middle burner lower than the rest mitigates. Just did big breakfast and my sausage was cooked even as were the two hashbrown piles. Low temp cooking is easy to achieve (320), and I am already able to ramp up and down temps and dial in even though this is my first griddle. Already so nonstick I have trouble flipping my OE eggs because they slide around so easy. After higher heat for hashbrowns I turned to low and did scrambled eggs with no sticking and no browning which is great because several in family do not want any browning on eggs. The surface of this griddle is primo. As good as my premium smooth American cast iron and French carbon steel skillets. I am thinking the wind protection may be one reasons why the Slate has a little less even heat than the old 28" model. However, living in Nebraska wind protection is important. Had a stiff breeze this morning and no issues getting plenty of even heat.
great comment...thanks
Your vid’s are the best. Thanks for the time you commit to help us make an informed decision. Your reviews are swaying me to the Traeger. Really disappointed in the hot zones of the Slate. I love the lower temps of the Slate but coming from a BS, I’m due for more of a zones and even cook.
Traeger or Webber if you had to choose one please and thanks. Also appreciate the vids always soo informational.
Very Nice.
Burst into tears. Do they know?
The edge to edge even heating is still a lot better than some of the other griddles
Absolutely
Thanks for a great review. Just went out to Ace and picked up the 30 inch. So it will be parked next to the LSG Pellet and a Weber Genesis.
Great backyard for sure..love the combo...cheers
@@TheFlatTopKing thanks Shipmate
NEW FTK VIDEO LETS GOOO!!
Thank you for this great vid. I'm retiring from the Air Force next month after 27 years and my family is coming out to celebrate, so I'm thankful to have a griddle to cook for 15 people. Question: what is that beveled scraper you used?
Just need a 17” travel version!
Great page & content! Looking at buying the Slate, trying to decide between the 30 or 36”. 30” would be about the same surface area as my 4 burner Weber grill, but the 36 is tempting. Subscribed!
Well I appreciate that...I would say this..if you can afford the price and space...100 36in burner...just like in real-estate....space is hard to find...may not need it everyday...but when you do...its nice to have
It looks good to me
would you consider reviewing the walmart expert grill griddle. I have one and I think its great but I would love to know your opinion. just looking out for the budget minded backyard cooker.
thanks so much for this video. I have enjoyed watching you channel and I like your honesty about Weber's claim that this is an "End to end even heat griddle". Please let me know what griddle that you have tested has the most even end-to-end heating
Easily the Traeger flatrock from watching his past videos.
The first weber was amazing at that..but ultimately the Traeger has the best so far...
You cooked enough for you and one neighbor!
Have you tried the Brabura flat top griddle? It looks incredible!
I could buy a car for how much they cost.
❤❤❤❤❤
I feel the same way. Personally I sand a brand new preseasoned pan until smooth and season with flaxseed oil until I'm happy and reseason every time I use it.
I said I thought Weber missed the mark on this one, but perhaps not as much as I thought. Actually seeing the cook may have changed my mind. The ability to stay fairly low temps is phenomenal. Hot spots seemed to not be too far off once food hits the surface. The only negative I can really see if the dumb temperature dial. Go Army.
You can get a base model without the useless thermometer. It's $649 I believe
Nice review and good cook, but the best part of the whole vid is you telling about getting all emotional about your daughter's success and the driver taking a jab at you about getting teared up about a new toy..............🤣
Trying to decide between this and the Traeger Flatrock for my first griddle. Would love to hear your honest opinion on the best one. Also, it seems there is some marketing terms being used surrounding the “slate” that it is rust resistant. Is it really any different than other brands?
Side note….what program do y’all use to edit videos?
So what’s do ya think, is the upgrade worth the price difference vs the previous version? Does the edge to edge on previous model overcome the nice extras/shelves on the Slate?
great video! you need a branded apron to go with your cooks, chef!
I guess I am lucky, my new Blackstone is within 10 degrees edge to edge but it does get very hot so I have to be careful.
Hash Browns-Shred raw potatoes with a box grater, microwave on high to jump start the potatoes cooking. While hot, stir in bacon grease, salt & pepper to taste. Put on buttered griddle. As you flip them, re-butter the griddle to help them brown.
Beautiful job. Just hand me a plate and a fork, get out of my way. I could dig into the chow. 😋👍✅
Deal!
@@TheFlatTopKing Okay 👍
Thanks for the video...pretty much made my decision for me. I currently have a 36 BS that while the cooking surface is still in great shape the rest of it is falling apart, peeling, rusting etc. Plus i dont care for the rear grease trap. Was considering the Halo 4burner but now I think the Weber Slate looks like a better choice. I will say not being able to use the lid while cooking is disappointing at this price point.
Yeah...not a fan of that....if interested in a few weeks Camp Chef comes out with theres..hahaha just one more to them mix
Tennessee Pride Sausage rocks!
Amen
Need that pancake recipe
theflattopking.com
I have had my Weber 4 burner 36 inch for about 9-10 months, version 1 not the new one. My hot spot is the far right side which seems easier to manage the griddle temp than it is with yours being the hot spot in the middle because it is effecting both left and right. Both version 1 and 2 are keepers in my book. can't see myself ever cooking on a Blackstone as long as weber is out there.
Have you seen the price of the Blackstone Pro Series? Over a $1,000 on the Pizza Oven and Griddles closer to $1500! Crazy
i have....dont understand it...not any information about it anywhere either...like the silent surprise for the wealthy
Great video! If your new fresh potato hash brown method includes a salad spinner, make sure you give me credit for it… Cheers (from a newly retired Pepperidge Farmer) !!!
Congratulations....cant wait for that day.....over it...hahaahaha
Do you like the slate better than the original weber? We are in the market for our first griddle. Thanks
What are you spreading on griddle in between hashbrowns and pancakes
Didn't the griddle insert into the traditional Weber do pretty well (better) vs. this Slate grill?
My black stone looks 20 years old despite being a year old and my Weber looks new despite being 10. The longevity alone is worth it to me.
Random thought, do you think it has more separate hot spots because of the extra 2” making the burners be slightly more spread out hence wider gaps in the hot zones?
Honestly I do not know...I think the heat would spread more efficiently but thats above my paygrade
With all the griddles you use, do you make "maps" of each one to remember hot/cool zones for later? Also, you need a large funnel and glass jar with lid to store that bacon grease in the fridge... "If you don't have bacon grease, how can you make delicious fried chicken livers." (My rendition of Pink Floyd's "The Wall".) LoL
Awesome big cook on the “little griddle”. Plenty big enough if you ask me.
Thats....what.....she......
@@TheFlatTopKing I see what you did there 😂
Are your seasonings in any stores yet?
just local
Those hot spots are pretty intense, honestly. Not sure how I feel about that.
Eeeyum!!
Tell me Neal - Do you purposely set your flat tops off-level so the oil/grease pools at one side or in a corner?
I'm anal about trying to make my flat top griddle perfectly level, but now I'm second-guessing the wisdom of that.
Other than having cracked eggs run away...
Thanks. Cheers!
Well my deck runs that way nationally...I have to move units so often I just got used to it....However it can absolutely help out....I like the idea of the oil pooling and having it if needed...or to even shallow fry
I saw another cooker's video that you might have to season. The griddle or grill at least 3 to 5 times is that true?
I did one coat and have been cooking on it ever since. Surface is very smooth and non stick
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😀
Is the Weber worth the significant increase in cost over the Blackstone? I’m not an expert on Blackstone griddles, but it looks like the Weber costs several hundred bucks more than a comparable one from Blackstone.
I assume that you’re using your oven to keep all of that food warm. If you ever want a recommendation for a high quality chafing dish like the ones hotels use at their buffet breakfasts, I can do that. I got one on Bezos’ website a few years ago and definitely a heavy duty, commercial product and it wasn’t crazy expensive. It would easily hold everything you cooked here. Since the heat is coming from steam underneath the pan, you never have to worry about your food drying out. It runs on Sterno cans, so you can use it anywhere, which is convenient.
In your opinion how does this compare to the weber genesis with the full size insert?
yes...i think its actually the same...
Do you think this 30 is enough for my family of 4 ( two small kids ) and time to time parties for Smash Burgers.. seems like i might use this griddle the most for breakfast for my family and maybe tacos for family/party
I honestly do...My family is 4....same problem here...
Did the grill come with the plastic totes? Or sold separately??
Both...some do and some dont..depends on the model
