SUPER buy on a 22" Blackstone!

I have been looking around on the internet for a 22" Blackstone for a while but every site said "out of
stock". Figured I was just going to have to wait for spring and start again. Well a couple of days ago Walmart did show the package including the hood, stand, bulk tank adapter at normal price of $174.00. Also, in checking, they did show it in stock at my local store. It's only a very short drive, so I went looking. Talked to a guy and he said that they did have one left "in the back". We walked to where they had a ton of summer type merchandise stacked up and there it was. Only thing was, it had a seasonal mark-down price on the box of $147.00. Almost sprained my thumb getting my wallet out.
I do need to ask something. After assembling and seasoning according to the video, last night I cooked a nice new york strip with sliced up onions (no pics) and did have a little sticking on one side of the steak. I think that it may have been the side that I hit with salt and pepper. Would that make any sense? I also used a splash of Worcestershire sauce, would that have contributed to the sticking? This morning I heated up the griddle and scraped the sticky stuff ass as best as I could..Should I now re-season? Sorry to be so wordy, but I'd like some guidance from you Blackstone experts.
TIA

Congrats on the purchase. Seasoning is definitely an ongoing process. It will get better the more you cook on it. Scrape off the stuff and re-season. Also, early on use a lot of oil while you cook. When you are finished cooking clean the griddle while hot and put a thin layer of oil on it. The seasoning will build up and eventually you won't need as much oil.Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.
