Warning griddle owners, this thread may cost you $$$$

I have been bit hard and I'm gearing up to so I can put in some work on my griddle!  Still need a few more turners, especially an oversized one for smashing burgers.

I'm pretty excited about the butter roller and the batter dispenser!

cazzy, your always doing things half ways.  lol

I would have one already if I had a good outdoor spot to put it. Soon...

I still want one of those butter rollers, that is cool.

Cazzy, those blue rings for eggs - try using a ring from a sliced onion as well, works great and ... Onion

It is the metal thing at the back right. You set it right on the griddle and fill it will butter.  The butter melts from the heat and you can then roll a piece of bread over the slotted cylinder and butter your bread.  Pretty common tool seen on griddles.  It is pretty cheap.

I've seen that on kitchen hacks...pretty cool. I used the rings tonight and they work great.  One less thing to prep too.

Toys, toys, and more toys. Can't wait to see more burgers. 

SGH

Looks like some great toys to compliment the blackstone. I'm sure that you will put them to great use.

I came through the ranks as a fry cook.  This was the hottest sweaty job there was in the kitchen. I thought the dishwasher was the only guy that looked up to us. F'ing burger king & then Eduardo's in chi town, red lobster,  mc-fing-donalds & irish lion in btown, IN, etc etc... you name it. 

I became a waiter to avoid this crap. Then, I went to college to further avoid this. 

Why, I ask with all my heart, do I want to buy this stuff, you evil bastard. Why? !  (Looks f'ing fantastic, btw)

Ps, I just cooked for 4 hours on my mini max for all my camp friends at garner state park.  No pics of the cooks, just great friends, great times. 

Wheel in the sky keeps on turning.

I've got those rings. They work. I'm with you on the butter wheel. That's something to get excited about.

I need a restraunt supply store near me.  How many sticks of butter does the butter roller take? I feel like I would end up wasting a lot of butter. I still want one.

The batter dispenser looks exactly like what I use to separate the fat out of my drippings when I want to use them for a sauce. That's a whole lot of new toys to play around with.

I don't know how many sticks it takes, but the roller extends to the bottom so it is pretty shallow.  If you make clarified butter, you can reuse it.

I ended up with this one for burger shaping/smashing - a bit larger than I wanted at 1/3 pound burgers, but works well:

@cazzy yes sir, I have all but the butter roller. I also have the subway squeeze bottles. Now I need a storage spot. Gasser is full of egg stuff.

That butter roller looks cool

Thanks for your post, @SoCalWis.
I scrolled down and spotted their setup for making juicy lucys.
Just ordered it!

cazzy

Okay, the batter dispenser is really awesome!

@cazzy It's great when $8.00 makes life a little more fun!!!

@cazzy that right there is what makes 'Merica so great. That looks incredible.

Thought I would just add on to this thread instead of making a new one. 

Ordered more toys for the griddle. I got the pancake batter dispenser that is pictured here. I also picked up the 36" Blackstone griddle bag and the grill top. I plan on taking this camping with me twice a year. Figured it would be easier to just haul this instead of both the griddle and the egg.

Only problems I see with just taking the griddle is I won't be able to use the griddle and grill top at the same time if I need to. Also, hopefully the burners don't take too much of a beating. The jury is still out on whether I'll keep the grill top, but I got a camping trip coming up next week so at least if I want it, I'll have it. It would be nice if they came out with a half griddle, half grill set up since it's so big.

I know this doesn't compare but I got to use the griddle on our new range for the first time this morning. Gonna need the batter dispenser.

@Lit Is that a GE range? My Profile has the same burner and griddle design.
