I have both gas and electric also and I have done smash burgers on both. I will say it takes a little longer to cook on the electric but, you can achieve the same crust as the gas. I also press mine down with a beacon press and hold it down for 20 seconds. Thanks for the vids.
I just bought an E series, and did smash burgers. I figured out, don't use butter and leave them on a bit longer. They'll get a good char without burning. The family loved them just as much as the ones from our big propane Blackstone!
Pretty much as expected. When use the electric and go to 500 then that is what you are going to get. My blackstone on high hits somewhere around 750 to 800 and that is where the crust comes from. The only thing I disagree with is you could have used your metal spatula to smash the burgers on the E-Series as it would not have touched the surface, no biggie the way you did it was fine just an observation. Great vid keep up the good work!
Great video CJ. Not as good as the gasser, but for folks that live in a complex that doesn't have a place to cook outdoors, like a dorm... That electric griddle is a good option. I'll bet that thing would rock some pancakes! Great video brother!
I have the 22E . have to agree, no where close on the crispy crust. I think the bigger problem is the electric griddle doesn't stay hot once you put the meat on it. Used a laser spot temp checker around the griddle. With 6 burgers on the griddle, the temp dropped to 325 and, even with the lid down, couldn't come back up any higher. Bacon on the porch this morning (58 degrees outside) took 30 minutes to cook. Grill cooled to 280 with 8 pieces of bacon on it and didn't recover. Love the cooking surface but falls short of why I bought a blackstone griddle. Gas next time for me.
Hey man New Hampshire here! Love the channel! Love the idea of an electric griddle for the cold times in New England, may not give the exact crust a propane griddle does but they still eat just the same! I just have to wait for Walmart to get them back in stock and then I'm all over it! Thank you for sharing your video!
Personal preference, for sure......but I never saw the point of a "smash burger." My family loves it when I make my homemade patties with ground buffalo and mix it all up with chopped onion/jalapenos/green pepper with spices BEFORE it goes onto the grill, followed up with smoked habanero pepperjack or gouda (you know, real cheese!!!). Speaking of grills, we use a portable pellet smoker grill for all our outdoor meats. Have only used the larger E-series to make breakfast and hibachi chicken w/rice.
Excellent video and comparison. Looking forward to more of your versus videos. As for now I am sticking with my 22" BS. I've only had it for 2 weeks and am really enjoying it. Ron
Yep, thought the same. It's like using cast iron vs nonstick. You want restaurant like results and durability or home results and be careful of damaging the cooking surface. The only thing you are really gaining with the electric version is more cooking surface.
Yes I noticed the same thing when I made my burgers. I couldn’t get a good to sear. I think the best thing to cook on it is stuff like fish and chicken. Breakfast things. Stuff like that.
It's difficult to compare the two items as one Blackstone was meant for outside use with a high smoke point that you would not desire inside your home. Secondly, the E-Series was meant for indoor use, hence the lid is to be used to help maintain heat. A good comparison would be a similar item from a different brand that is also electric.
Couple of things. The different tools used to smash the burgers was a factor. The same tool could have been used since you had paper to protect from scratches on the e series. Second you began the smashing process on the gas griddle first and took the burgers off the e series first so there was less time to develop a flavor crust of any sort. If the flavor crust is make or break just add a tidbit more butter and you won't know the difference. I get amazing flavor crust on mine but I always use a little butter no matter where I cook my meats.
I called this before you even started lol. Natural gas beats electric EVERY time. Nothing cooks like natural gas or propane. My stove is natural gas and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Cheers!
Quite revealing match up. I don't think I want something that has to be "babied" all the time. Although it should be a nice addition to the kitchen, if you are used to dealing with non stick cookware. Nicely Done. Thanks for sharing. 😎.
Thanks CJ. I have a Propane 19” PitBoss rolled steel and just picked up the 22” Blackstone E with the cart. 2 reasons / Don’t like cleaning the PitBoss and also live in Cold Michigan and love to cook in the garage. Thinking with the E I can keep that Garage door shut when it’s -10 degrees and fry that bacon on Saturday & Sunday mornings… lol / I’m a PitBoss Pellet Guy normally. Can’t wait to play with my first Blackstone.
Seen Todd Toven's video and wanted a side by side and CJ does it. I had already made my mind up to wait for the 2nd generation of E-Series. W. Ky has to cold a winter for my likeing to use he original some days. As you said it has it's uses and I've seen both your video's and seen enough of your video's to know what that chuckle means.. That for the side by side.... The ring light makes the sunglasses look like you have some wild eyes...LOL Great vid.
CJ I bought a E Series Blackstone Griddle and love it, I have a gas 22" combo charcoal grill Blackstone on my deck and you're welcome to come and pick it up, due to the condensation and rust and all the maintenance of having a gas flat too I think the Teflon coated indoor Blackstone is the bomb 💣 😀, and clean up is a piece of cake 🎂 ! I'm a new edition to your channel CJ and I'm enjoying it! Thanks! Oh you're correct it does take longer to cook on the E Series, BUT the maintenance and cleanup time is a breeze and makes up for it to me!
Have you tried the original indoors? Or is there too much smoke? Never mind - saw your reply down below. Great vids. Very enjoyable. Indoor is my only option at the moment. Shared this channel with friends. Great stuff!
Ceramic coatings can't handle high heat or they break down so that's why the electric one doesn't get as hot if they made it to get hotter the coating would break down.
I am looking at the e series because I live in an apartment complex where I cannot have a grill outside.And I do not have a deck so I gotta go with what I can get
Thanks just what I have been looking for. I am leaning towards a 22" and I hear that they will have an electric one out by Fall. I thought the electric wouldn't quite have the heat of gas but if it's close and the nonstick has good longevity. I guess we will have to wait and see.
I bought my E-Series mostly to do breakfast on days when I don't feel like cooking outside due to weather or whatever reason. Thanks for the video showing the differences in the Smashburgers.
Accidentally hit thumbs down... 😬.. this is a great propane vs electric comparison.. very good baseline test and honestly made my decision about electric vs propane for seasonal rv camping.. I was leaning electric because of space limitations, but realized the little bit of extra space for propane will be worth it.. especially when you sit down to eat that burger knowing "it coulda been better"... thanks! Sorry for fat fingering the thumbs down... I fixed it!
I think the problem was with the e-series, and not getting a crust because you used butter on a non-stick surface which was steaming the meat. If ground beef has 20% fat there is no need for butter and oils. I use butter just before I pull the patties off the grill. The best crust I ever had on a burger , was from using muster on the meat .
CJ! Come on, man. How can you make a whole video comparing the Blackstones and not do a taste test? I needed to know if that crustification made a difference! You gotta taste the food if you're comparing! You let me down, CJ
The only advantage I see with e series, is cooking inside during extreme cold conditions. Yes you could use a skillet on the stove but with the blckstone e series, there is probably more cooking surface than an average skillet.
Hey CJ! Have you used the Blackstone propane griddle indoors? I know it’s not recommended, but if you had proper ventilation like a good hood set full on can you use it indoors safely?
@@CookingWithCJ Thanks for your reply. Love the channel. I gotcha on your smoke alarms. They’re there for a good purpose. I realize it’s not ideal, but I’ve got a brand new propane one sitting unopened that I’ve been itching to use for months now. If my alarms go off, I think I will reconsider. They’re fairly new, so I think they’ll let me know if it’s a no go. I still have about a foot of snow on my deck, so what the heck I thought I’d ask. I guess the adage of keep on grillin’ applies here. So, fingers crossed. We’ll see what happens. Thanks, brother!
Looks like it would be just a big mess in the house to cool on that E-Series... What's the surface temperature after they are fully pre-heated; the E-Series seems to be lacking some heat!
I just bought a 22” e series and so far love it. My question is can you use cast iron skillet or stainless pots on it? To heat chili for burgers or beans? Don’t want to mess it up!
Nice comparison with predictable results. I probably would've gone ahead and used the metal spatula just to smash the burgers on the e-series but I'm a daredevil. Curious if skipping the butter would increase the crust on the e-series. Thanks for the vid!
What! No bacon! LOL, Just kidding. I like how the easy the cover comes off on the E series. Wish the covers would come off that easy on the regular Blackstone Groddles with covers. Some fish would be cool to see as a comparison. Thanks.
Wonder how it would heat a small 10 inch cast iron skillet to make burgers and get the sear crust? Just thinking, cause I've watched them set a pan in to make gravy or even one of the grill mates? I just bought 1 for my truck for cooking on the road cause I didn't like carrying propane along
For some reason I feel you are a robot because your shiny circular pupils Never turn alway from the Camara or you might just be the Monalisa of cooking idk it's just hard to miss
Not sure why Blackstone chose a ceramic coating for the electric one. I guess if you’re gonna be cookin’ burgers on it you might wanna go for one from another manufacturer that doesn’t use ceramic. My stove is electric but because I use metal pans I get a damn good sear on burgers. I bet it’s great for cooking eggs though.
@@paulbram2 Well, all I know is that there are other electric griddles out there one can buy that have a steel top just like his gas griddle does. Blackstone choosing to go another direction than they do with their gas griddles seems like a peculiar choice. It’s too bad. I’d like to buy an electric Blackstone but that one isn’t gonna suit my needs or that of a lot of other people so I guess I’ll have to go with something else.

If you keep the burger pressed down for 30 seconds the indoor grill crusts the burgers up the same as the outdoor one. Try it.
Will do

I use my e series for cooking fish filets and chicken tenders they come out great

Definitely the ceramic coating. I learned when I tested a ceramic cooking pan to a cast iron pan for smash burgers. No comparison.
Cast iron is far superior to the ceramic. Ceramic sucks.

I'd buy the black stone griddle for the steel top, once you have it seasoned well you get better flavored food. My opinion.
I dig the original too

Titanium ceramic can get up to 500 degrees

Yes I’ve seen it too. I thought about waiting, but I wanted to jump on it when I could.
Have you tried the 22" E series? That's the one I want but I saw reviews that it doesn't heat evenly.. So I came to YT lol
Great comparison. Got a big kick out of your white eyes in your sunglasses 😎
Thanks much!
I use parchment paper and the bottom of a fry pan to smash works pretty good
Definitely!
With the E series you have to move the juices and move the patties to dry areas. If you leave it in all the juices it steams it doesn't crust up
Thanks!
I bought my E-Series mostly to do breakfast on days when I don't feel like cooking outside due to weather or whatever reason. Thanks for the video showing the differences in the Smashburgers.

Seems like the titanium cook surface can’t compete with cast iron. It just doesn’t have the same heat retention.
It’s definitely different.

No it will scratch the coating
Well you're not wrong about the cheese. Thanks for the vid.
Thank you!!
Thank you for the comparison
Welcome!
Two different beast to deal with. They want you come in your house and work with you when you have cold weather. But either burger i will eat.
Why didn't they use cast Iron? Is there a limitation for the electric with cast iron?
Nice comparison with predictable results. I probably would've gone ahead and used the metal spatula just to smash the burgers on the e-series but I'm a daredevil. Curious if skipping the butter would increase the crust on the e-series. Thanks for the vid!
Hey thanks! And yeah probably would have been crustier without the butter.
Agreed! Add the butter when nearly done
Do bacon.
Thanks!
I'd like to see how breakfast turns out on the e series..eggs, hash browns, pancakes, sausage etc.
Great idea, thank you!
American cheese on everything I say! Great comparison video!
Thanks Ed! Cheers
Shrimp stir fry would be awesome on the electric griddle please! ☺️
Right on! Great idea
you get a good sear if you didnt use butter or oil. just dry ... give the grill more time to heat up.
Yeah good tip. Thanks
You are dead on regarding American cheese on hamburgers, can't be beat!🍔
Yes!!
Carbon steel (cold rolled steel) or stainless steel is the only option. No non stick coating for me Teflon or ceramic
thanks for watching!
Why aren’t you doing this inside the house?
Don't really remember. It was a nice day?
When I use the electric griddle the temperature goes down nearly half when I start cooking
Haven’t had that happen before. Might want to call blackstone on that one.
Electric doesn’t heat up as fast as the propane..Thanks for the review...
Don't put butter down first. You want it to stick to the flat top for the best malliard reaction
That terrible for you processed cheese is absolutely the best on smash burgers.
Yes!!
That looks so good! Now I want me some lol tfs. New fan here!
Awesome! Thank you!
Hey Bud, why not try some seasoned salmon, rice and a veg
Americans cheese on grilled cheese & smash burgers is the reason I keep some, also like to eat plain sometimes
Perfect for both.
run of the mill electric griddles start around twenty dollars and put out 1500 watts and store easier when not in use.
thx for the compar... CJ. !! gota question for ya !! would the gasser griddle plate fit on the eseries !! ( swap ) thx :)
No problem. And I don’t think so. I wouldn’t have thought to try it.
@@CookingWithCJ would be funny if the legs fit :)
Gr8 video thanks
Just subscribed
Thanks!
Is there alot of splatter on the e series vs what there was with the ninja sizzle do you think one is better than the other?Thanks CJ!
There is if you have a lot of fat on it. I think the original steel one is better.
I'd love to see a breakfast versus (eggs, bacon and pancakes on each)
I think pancakes are next up! Thanks much!
What! No bacon! LOL, Just kidding. I like how the easy the cover comes off on the E series. Wish the covers would come off that easy on the regular Blackstone Groddles with covers. Some fish would be cool to see as a comparison. Thanks.
Lol! Thanks! I'm not a fan of fish, but I'll see what I can do. Thanks for the idea!
Question how do you do a deep clean this griddle?
Tastewise, how did they compare?
It’s like the difference between cooking on a non stick pan vs. a cast iron pan. It’s gonna be different.
Looks yummy 😋great video
Thank you!!
I’m trying to find out we’re I can buy the new grill from please tell me thanks
I think it would crust up fine if you just gave it another minute or two.
Wonder how it would heat a small 10 inch cast iron skillet to make burgers and get the sear crust? Just thinking, cause I've watched them set a pan in to make gravy or even one of the grill mates? I just bought 1 for my truck for cooking on the road cause I didn't like carrying propane along
They’re pretty adamant on not putting mettle on the non-stick.
Sautéed onions and different kinds of mushrooms and peppers and stuff
No taste test?
Nah not on this one.
For some reason I feel you are a robot because your shiny circular pupils Never turn alway from the Camara or you might just be the Monalisa of cooking idk it's just hard to miss
Fight me in the comments you don't want none....lmao you don't want that smoke...thanks for the video. Where is the link for the e grill
I’m still waiting on Walmart to approve me as an affiliate so I can create the link.
Finally someone who’s honest about it
CJ I will keep watch for the link to Walmart . The stores near me still don't have the E-series griddle in stock.

Not sure why Blackstone chose a ceramic coating for the electric one. I guess if you’re gonna be cookin’ burgers on it you might wanna go for one from another manufacturer that doesn’t use ceramic. My stove is electric but because I use metal pans I get a damn good sear on burgers. I bet it’s great for cooking eggs though.
Right?!? Use an induction element paired with iron/steel and you would get the best of both worlds!

I'm not ashamed of American cheese. I often use it over any other cheese for my burgers.
Yes!!
If you use a litter but of oil and not butter you will get a better crust on the e series
