  • in this video i show how to reset the regulator on a Blackstone 36'' griddle when the saftey feature prevents it from heating up. this is commonly from leaving the gas bottle on when the griddle or most any newer grill or cooker is not in use.

  • @JimCantu
    @JimCantu Год назад +120

    You don’t have to disconnect the tank or even wait 15 min. All you have to do is turn the tank off and then turn on one of your burners for a couple of seconds to release any pressure that may be in the line. Then just make sure all your burners are set to off before you turn the tank on. Open the tank valve slowly and you’ll be good to go. The problem is, if you open the tank with any of your grill valves in the on position, it causes the check valve in the regulator to come on which reduces flow from your tank. This can also happen when you open your tank too quickly. It’s very common problem especially with a new or full tanks. Try it and let me know if it works for you.

    • @SpiritoftheOutdoors
      @SpiritoftheOutdoors  Год назад +11

      I just went by what the company that makes them said to do . If you read through all these comments you will find that just turning it on with the bottle unhooked works on a few but not most. This method i use will guarantee all work.

    All you have to do is close the controls knobs and unscrew the regulator to release the pressure and retighten no need to wait 15 minutes. This is typical for all modern gas stoves and is caused by the control knobs being open(ed) before opening the regulator.

    • @SpiritoftheOutdoors

    Found this comment on META. Anyway to increase the BTUs on the Walmart Griddle by Blackstone? the Walmart model only heats up to 48,000 BTUs while the model at all other stores heats up to 60,000 BTUs. Again, I'm happy with my Walmart model, but wanted to share this FYI for those wondering like I did why the Blackstone at Walmart was $100 less. It's still a good griddle, but the burners are apparently a less powerful model made exclusively for Walmart.

    that rust-looking color you see when using oil is not rusting if you watch some of the brand promotors for Blackstone they tell you what you are seeing is not rust. I use flax seed oil to season my griddle. I had my Blackstone griddle for a year. live in Michigan no rust. just one spot on the side of the griddle fixed with a mix of vinegar water. because of how well seasoned it is after every cook I now go over with oil one time really. I know my flat top is seasoned will because i have cooked stuff that sticks easily on pans I used and not one problem with those items sticking.
