OT - Creative Blackstone Scraper - OT

Fred19Flintstone

I used to use the scraper that came with my Blackstone kit.

The problem was I usually burned my knuckles or scalded them with steam.  Wilma found this on clearance.  I've only used it once after some smash burgers the other day, but I think I like it.


What do you use to scrape your Blackstone?  Thanks for looking.

Not this exact one but you get the idea:

 I use that Weber scraper to clean the ashes from the green egg

I use the default Blackstone scrapper bit wear my silicone bbq gloves while cleaning it. Steam is hot

I have to admit that too.
There are way too many $$$ solutions out there looking for a problem.

i use the rigid browne spatula similar to the dexter version. sharpened the edges better, smahes a burger easily, scrapes a griddle, could chop a tree down with it

this things solid and heavey, there is no flex in it at all. someone reaches over you're cutting board, it would easily remove fingers

+1 for that. It rakes the top of the firegrate nicely and fits inside the bottom of the XL perfect to shovel out all the ash. I don't even use my BGE ash tool anymore.

I just nuke it from orbit.   It's the only way to be sure.

You guys clean these?

This would work if my Blackstone was still flat.  I have the 17" and it warped.  The steel cook top started to buckle, and the edges raised up about an inch during a cook.   It was the strangest thing.   I was able to weigh down the edges, and get back to semi flat, but there's still a dip in it.  I figure one of the engineers can explain why that happened.  Too hot?  Uneven cooking?

I still use it!  In fact, made some chicken Phillies tonight.  It just doesn't scrape off as easily.

I've been using hand trux, but I like your idea.

Silly Carey.  Dogs tongues are not cookable.  I have it on good authority that is where asbestos comes from.

bs sent me a replacement top that i still havent used but will if doing  pancakes etc. the warped one i still use for burgers. the 17 top is thinner than the other cookers and the newer tops have a system of gussets band-aided to the bottom can not see that working either but i still like my 17
