First one is sinking guys.  So I will make another one.  Post your Blackstone stories, un-boxing pictures, and cooks here.

This thread sinking crap is getting old.

Not sure I understand the rational behind it.  It was in OT area.  

Thatgrimguy

Sinking a good thread about cooking that never got ugly it's BS. And I'm not talking B.lackS.tone

Hotch

I had to speak with Blackstone a while back and asked if they had any thoughts of starting a forum for the Blackstone Posse. Both the flat top griddle and the pizza oven. He said they were working towards getting it done.

paqman

Nice!  The way of the Buffalo

tarheelmatt

Could it have been the software to sink a thread?  I don't know enough about that. 

Hotch

Possibly we now only have the last 100 pages of post on the front page. I was able to go back like 900 or so.

Although we can still search the older posts.

Yeah, I think you may be onto something @tarheelmatt. I'm guessing there might be a max length where after that it autosinks.

That was a quality thread.  I'm getting pretty annoyed with the mods.  Some of the stuff that is left active is ridiculous, but if you mention another cooking device it's sunk.  

I've joined two other BBQ forums, going to do some exploring, and see what else is out there.

btw - @tarheelmatt  & @slovelad   nice looking cooks guys.

That's buffalo bullshlt.

I, for one, enjoy these OT threads about other cooking devices. You guys have helped me spend a lot of money, lol. I live under a rock and most of them I would never have known about without all of your help. BTW, thanks everyone  for the info on the Dexter Russell brisket knife. It drew first blood on my brisket cook. Yeppers, Liquid Skin is my friend.

theyolksonyou

Yep, those knives are wicked sharp, amirite @JohnInCarolina ?

If that's the case how do you explain ozzie's "what are you doing now" thread? 

Dredger

@theyolksonyou, they are fantastic and did a great job on the brisket. I also got their 6 inch boning knife to trim that sucker. Not a drop of blood using that one, but the brisket knife got me and all I did was look at it.

Ok, good point. My theory has been disproved.

Good point... OR there is something in the code that makes exceptions for those that have made hurtful GIFs... I dunno.   

Sorry @Ozzie_Isaac , I had to do it.

Broke mine open Sunday. I bought it at target when it was $229, and it's been in the shed since. I don't know why I've just been really busy. Made fried rice for my family (big family, eight siblings with who knows how many nieces and nephews). Others chipped in with other Asian dishes that were awesome. I kept my effort basic since this was my first blackstone run, and I've never made fried rice. Veggies were the basic peas/carrots, and I chopped up some green onions and broccoli. The only protein was ham, because I'm an idiot and forgot the eggs. It was still awesome, I will be doing this again soon. It was nice cooking in the garage while it rained. 

Thursday, I have approval from the wife and children to make breakfast, for dinner. Can't wait.

Cooking that much rice is a workout on your wrists isn't it!?  Looks great!

Yeah I was thinking he should trade the spatula for a snow shovel.  Awesome looking rice @cookingdude555

cookingdude555

@Thatgrimguy  & @SmokeyPitt  , haha, yeah it was an incredible amount of food.

It looks like you keep yours in your garage...do you cover it in the garage?

Did some deer smash burgers.  

tarheelmatt

Did what I call the Ultimate Breakfast Stack (hashbrowns, sausage patty, egg, cheese, hashbrowns, bacon, egg, and cheese.  All with some onions, peppers, and mushrooms.  Thing was legit!

Noticed Blackstone came out with some windscreens too.  Not sure how long ago that was though.  

You'll want to consider making some for the RGMS too.  

Tspud1

Translate RGMS for me

Rear Grease Management System

All the new Blackstones have the trap in the rear now.  This would only be good for the old design.

Someone needs to do a BS Buffalo Smash Burger.
