Very exciting. As a skins fan, undesirable, but a good game is all you can ask forDoubleEgger said:

Trying to figure out a good method to season it. Thinking avacado oil then some bacon.SGH said:

Try to find "100% Unrefined Fax Seed Oil". It will be in a refrigerated cabinet if it is truly Unrefined. Usually you can find it in health food stores. It is not cheap but it should provide a long lasting seasoning.
I followed Blackstone's method and it did work OK. But I find that sometimes the season has softened a bit. Even after a few long high reheats to set it again.
After a lot of research on Cast Iron seasoning, seems the chemistry behind seasoning recommends Unrefined Flax Seed Oil.
Come Spring I plan on stripping my Blackstone and go back with "100% Unrefined Fax Seed Oil"

Went and picked up some unrefined flax seed oil. Thanks for the pro tip @Hotch

According to what many say, use very thin costs. Almost wipe it off completely. Take a read on this:DoubleEgger said:Went a picked up some unrefined flax seed oil. Thanks for the pro tip @Hotch

I'm medicating as well-Woodford Reserve single barrel. The clarity of purpose that is coming thru is most incredible Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

Looking for an ice chest forum to join so I can bash knock off coolers.

Lol, me too. Unrefined, cold pressed, 100%, stored in the fridge. This is serious business.DoubleEgger said:Went and picked up some unrefined flax seed oil. Thanks for the pro tip @HotchMaybe your purpose in life is only to serve as an example for others? - LPL

Isn't that what this is? I saw all the RTIC threads and just figured it was.theyolksonyou said:Looking for an ice chest forum to join so I can bash knock off coolers. -
This forum is generally a money sink forum. Just when you think you have every conceivable toy a new one pops up.

The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out. -
@SGH can you post a side-by-side pic with a Yeti?

@Hotch what are your thoughts on the need to flax seed oil season the bottom side of the griddle?

Is seared Lexus good on the blackstone? Looks like it's just about time to flip! Jk!DoubleEgger said:I need to learn how to flip egg shells into a chef's hat now. -
How many coats is that @Ozzie_Isaac
-
30 minutes of wiping oil on while it is blazing hot, then let it cool once. Then another 30 minutes. So far I've used anout 4oz of oil.DoubleEgger said:How many coats is that @Ozzie_IsaacMaybe your purpose in life is only to serve as an example for others? - LPL

Used my weed burner to heat up the edges because it doesn't heat evenly near the drip tray.

Any grilling pics @theyolksonyou
This is the tamest Wednesday in a long time!

@DoubleEgger sorry, no. Too busy trying to everyone fed and in bed. Didn't eat until 8:45. Basically the same as I posted in a thread a few weeks ago, but I must say, my technique is improving. These were the best yet.
2oz of meat, blazing hot griddle(IR said 545 ish) drop it on and smash using a big turner and a second long handle spatula for leverage. Cook till it's starting to look like it's separating on top <1min I'd say. Flip with a razor blade scraper and put cheese on. Flip second patty on top. Pull in just a few seconds onto a butter toasted bun. = money
edit: blazing hot and ungreased is key -

Yet to tackle the fried rice, but I sure do like to eat it!

Maybe everyone went to BBQ brethren?

My wife tried it and said to not take it to work and to keep it for us to eat. It's pretty good.------------------------------
