BLACKSTONE E-SERIES 17" ELECTRIC TABLETOP GRIDDLE WITH HOOD - FULL REVIEW

[@lockman3962]

I know I'm late to the party.But this is one of the best video reviews I ever seen 😂

[@AllAmericanMack]

Thank you, I appreciate that! It's still my favorite kitchen appliance several years after getting it.

[@kimmclucas2672]

Yesss I got mine on Monday. I cooked a few things,, very impressed

[@obzorfootbal9729]

*Works great. We have used it as a grill **MyBest.Kitchen** and a griddle Grease catcher could stand some improvement as some liquid usually gets on the counter top. Grills/griddles are easy to remove and insert.*

[@ncjbennett]

I just picked up mine this morning. This afternoon I cooked steaks, and grilled onions & zucchini. Everything was delicious and cleanup was very easy. I’m liking it a bunch!

[@AllAmericanMack]

For sure. I had no idea just how much I would end up using this griddle. It's by far my single favorite kitchen appliance.

[@121hearc]

how is the non stick holding up?

[@AllAmericanMack]

Both of mine have been great. I mostly use the 17" and the ceramic surface is still just as good as it was when it was new. I know one person personally who has one and they haven't had any issues either.

[@121hearc]

@@AllAmericanMack I went ahead and grabbed a 22 inch model it will be used in a commercial setting so I'll be pushing it to its limit hopefully in the future they will offer replacement tops incase the ceremic fades

[@AllAmericanMack]

That's great. I'd love to know how you like it and if it holds up to commercial use. The ceramic does seem to be pretty durable so it will be interesting to see.

[@Denita_Wishart]

Great video!! I was sooooo STOKED when I saw that they came out with the electric griddle!! Just love our Blackstones 🙌🏻 Just got my griddle 2 weeks ago at Walmart. 😘

[@AllAmericanMack]

Thanks! This has easily become my favorite kitchen appliance and although I thought I would use it a little here and there, I use it almost every day and am always looking for something to cook in it!

[@kurtisward7120]

Just got mine after going to my 15th Walmart and an hour from my house well worth the wait I used it last night and love it so far

[@AllAmericanMack]

Thanks for watching! Its definitely my favorite kitchen appliance.

[@doodlingdebbie1]

Thank you for making such a great video. May I recommend using your metal burger iron with some parchment paper in between your griddle and burger. This way the metal won’t touch the surface of the griddle and scratch or damaged the griddle but it will do a great job smashing the burgers.

[@nismo_p3705]

Great demo! Just got one. Would have liked to have seen the cleaning process.

[@EthEdr]

Absolutely awesome video. And yup I think I'll own one of these soon. Thanks!

[@AllAmericanMack]

Thank you. I always appreciate when someone takes the time to watch and comment on my videos.👍👍

[@metaspherz]

I like the Blackstone electric griddle. I have a stainless steel Little Griddle by Sizzle-Q that I use with my Weber grill. I like that it can be positioned over the burners so that different heat zones can be used and with the ultra-high heat of the grill steaks can be seared to perfection. But having a large indoor griddle like the Blackstone in the Winter is a plus! Blackstone also has egg rings to stop them from spreading too wide on the griddle.

[@AllAmericanMack]

Interesting that you mentioned the Sizzle-Q. I bought one some years back and although I have never put it on the grill, I used it on my stove. Even though it was completely not designed for that, it actually works pretty good. I did end up getting the egg rings and have used them quite a bit since I try to cook everything I can on the Blackstone.

[@brendahansen7870]

As far as smash burgers getting smashed, use parchment paper on top,of the burger ball of meat and then you can use the metal smasher without fear of scratching the surface.

[@AllAmericanMack]

Great tip, thanks!👍👍

[@kevinrutledge9602]

Thanks for the video. The videos I have seen have not adequately convey the size of the thing. I learned that after getting one. Only thing I run into is all my counters have uppers. Fortunately you can put on and take off the lid without having it near verticle

[@Mike-lf7px]

Never smash your burgers once they're cooking, the first time was perfect. All that good juice and season is being smashed out. Great video!!

[@AllAmericanMack]

Good point, I'm a little too "smash happy"! My goal is to have thin patties similar to Steak n Shake but I probably need to start off with a smaller amount of meat for that.

[@samuelbeach5585]

@@AllAmericanMack start off with balls about 1/8th pound. Mix your spice blend into it as you make your balls. Smash with metal smash plate but use a sheet of Parchment Paper between it and the burger. Won't scratch the surface, and you'll get a much better smash crust.

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

I forgot to mention in my first comment, with the lid down on preheating, it takes mine 4-5 minutes to get to 500, which actually registers at around 538 on mine. Thanks for the video again.

Wait... that is hot enough to do a good PIZZA... Has anyone tried doing a Pizza on this Electric grill with the hood down... That would be a Game Changer... Pizza Oven....

[@asininemind8235]

I just got the 22” version. Mine has a crown in the center. A blackstone rep said that it’s manufactured that way and it’ll flatten out over time. Has that been your experience?

[@AllAmericanMack]

Well, my 22" has been resting comfortably for a good while now so I haven't looked at it in a while but I don't remember it having a crown in the middle. It might, I just don't remember noticing it. However, it will be coming out of retirement soon and I will check.

[@JudiChristopher]

Excellent video... Thank you for sharing... It has been over a year... Do you still feel the same way about this Electric Tabletop Grill?

[@AllAmericanMack]

Yes, very much so and it's still my favorite kitchen appliance. Some people have said theirs began to have issues with sticking after a while but as of yet I haven't had any problems.

[@JudiChristopher]

@@AllAmericanMack Good to know... Thank you.

[@Hjb1984]

Can you use it as a hot plate for pots and pans as well?

[@AllAmericanMack]

I never have and it might work as long as you're careful to not scratch or damage the ceramic coating.

[@msbgone]

What a great vid! Only issue was right at the end you wanted to cook your steak and 450, but you never actually clicked ok so it stayed at 500, but I bet the crisp was jstu as delicious! I am enjoying mine as well, going to cook somethings that you did now!

SMASHING THE BURGERS….. Your could always use a small piece of like parchment paper, & lay your spatula on top & press down with a seasoning bottle.. other than I always just use what I already got out on everything I cook on!! (Seasoning is something I use on my burgers to, so I use the bottle to smash em down!) Thank you for the video! It was great to watch & was useful. We just bought this very griddle just because it was smaller & we wanted something we can just kinda grab & take wherever we wanna go! Seems like it’s gonna be with it from your video here!! The color of your food looks good to me! I can’t wait to fry some taters on it!!!

[@rjd8434]

Great video 👍 hell yeah I’m sold 👍🍺

[@Glide-vd5we]

It just seems like it should have better splatter protection it will probably take you at least an hour to clean up mess in surrounding area wouldn't it be better to have dual control just wondering.

[@AllAmericanMack]

There are going to be a little splattering but I've never found it excessive and it just takes a minute to wipe up. I have the larger 22" version with dual heating elements and controls but find the recovery time is longer on it than on the 17". But you do make an interesting point and I could see the benefit of dual controls in this model.

[@shannonlarson3463]

Does grease go all over your counter?

[@AllAmericanMack]

There will be minimal splatters if you're cooking something with a lot of grease like bacon but it's not excessive. You can also close the hood to further minimize splatter so I would say it's a good bit less than using a frying pan on the stove.

[@peabody4217]

just bought me one today, im gonna have fun cooking with this!!

[@AllAmericanMack]

Awesome, I bet you're going to love it. Don't use any non-stick cooking sprays on it though, only butter or oil.

[@peabody4217]

I have one yur gonna love it!!

[@Intoxacajun]

Wow! Surprised you were able to get sear on steak. Do you think the butter helped? I have many griddles and love the gas Blackstone but boy its a pain for me to maintain. I just picked an electric up at Wally World on clearance for $45, so thought I would try it. Just want something that will sear a steak, grill fish and shrimp but clean up easily. Also like to cook bacon outside so it doesn't smell up the house. I guess searching for the perfect griddle! Good video!!

[@AllAmericanMack]

I think the butter probably did help. Man, I'd pick up another one if I found one that cheap lol. I have a 26" or 28", can't remember which, that I never use for the same reasons. I like it and they certainly have a lot of advantages over these little electric ones but cooking *INSIDE* in the *AIR* *CONDITIONING* wins out every time! 🤣🤣🤣

[@Intoxacajun]

@@AllAmericanMack Finally got around to using it. Bacon, eggs and french toast this morning, worked great! Best part was the cleanup! Definitely a keeper just on ease of cleanup!! Griddle on!!

[@joycebelk4634]

Another late to view this video. I’m definitely impressed with this griddle. I already have a black stone propane griddle and love it but wanted an inside option so I will be purchasing one soon. It does appear I’ll be paying double for mine like every other purchase I’ve made in 2024.

[@AllAmericanMack]

Well here's a late reply to your late view 🤣. Maybe check any Walmarts in your area, people are saying they have been finding them on clearance since they need the room for holiday items. I also saw one the other day on facebook marketplace for $60, brand new in the box. If I didn't already have two of them (the 17" and the 22") I would have picked it up. I have a regular Blackstone, either 26 or 28, I can't remember because I've never used it. It's still sitting in the shed because the E-Series has spoiled me lol.

[@joycebelk4634]

@ I’ll check that out. I appreciate you saying the E-series has spoiled you. Makes me think I would agree. I can’t wait to try it out.

[@tomwozniak1000]

​@AllAmericanMack I just bought a 22" today with the cart for $88, I couldn't run any faster to the register lol

[@ronaldskowronski7291]

WHERE is the '22 inch E-Series with dual temperature ? It was on the Walmart website at one time. Now it does not exit ? What is going on ?

[@AllAmericanMack]

That's a good question!! I couldn't find mention of either the 17" or the 22" last time I was on Blackstones website. There seems to be a big demand for the E-Series that is outpacing their production and/or distribution.

[@shirleycole4654]

Just picked my E series up today, haven't used it yet. We have had the 17" propane griddle for about 3 years and love it for camping. I like to be able to control the temps when I cook (a retired cook here). Think I'm going to love this for use in undesirable weather.

[@AllAmericanMack]

I think Blackstone hit a homerun with the E-Series. Electric will have a few small drawbacks over gas like slower recovery, but all in all, I think it's a winner.

[@d.barclay1564]

Have you taken your E series out with you when you go camping? If so does it trip your breakers?

[@josephhunt5123]

I’m seriously considering purchasing one but can’t decide between this and the 22. People are complaining the 22 does not cook evenly at all. Also how do you know what temp to use for different foods? Thanks!

[@AllAmericanMack]

Having had both the 22" and the 17", I prefer the 17". It is a little less cooking surface but the recovery time is better than on the 22" and it has less hotspots. Someone had commented that they tend to use 400° for most things and I've found that it was pretty solid advice. There's a small learning curve for the temps but I now usually start the griddle at around 450° or maybe a little higher depending on what I'm cooking so that it doesn't cool down too much from the food. Then I adjust the temps to 400° or whatever I want after it's recovered.

[@josephhunt5123]

Thank you for the reply- I’m thinking of going with the 17” as well.

[@josephhunt5123]

Got my 17” today. Made bacon sausage eggs and pancakes. Everything turned out wonderful and cleaned up like a dream. I’m still confused over so many different temps that I see people doing for chicken and pork chops etc. I made everything today on 385. But thinking maybe 400 will get the job done faster without burning my food

Nice I’m gonna buy it!!!! Is it still in good working shape? Thanks

Yes it is and it gets used regularly. I've been told that when cleaning it, don't use soap because it can harm the non-stick coating over time. I just use a paper towel to wipe it and it cleans up fine.

[@rabbivj]

i just got a 22" so gonna see how it does. I wonder how wagyu will go on this...

[@joshuapieper2945]

What makes this different than just using a regular fry pan? Since its just a non stick coating? Im trying to justify buying it lol

[@AllAmericanMack]

For me it was the larger cooking surface than what a frying pan has and the ability to better control the cooking temps. I won't discount the fact that I think it's pretty cool too lol. When I bought mine, I knew I would like it but I didn't know that I would love it and would end up using it way more than I initially thought. I used to use those cheapy $20 griddles but the non-stick coating would always end up wearing or coming off after just a little use and I got tired of replacing them so often. For me, this griddle has been not only my favorite kitchen appliance but well worth the inveatment.

[@davjamrid]

Still can't find one! I do almost all of my cooking on a 36" gas Blackstone. I would have kept the temp at 400 degrees for everything.

[@AllAmericanMack]

I've seen them pop up a couple times on walmart.com in the last two weeks but they sell out quick. I'd say sign up for in stock alerts and maybe check the website regularly. 400 seems like a good all around temp and I'll try that out. Thanks!

[@blueschild61]

I've been having a hard time trying to find out if this is weather rated. Do you know if it's okay to leave this outside on the porch to get rained on; or do you have to bring it indoors every time you use it?

[@AllAmericanMack]

Although I haven't seen anything regarding outdoor use, I think because it's labeled as an indoor griddle it shouldn't be left outdoors. Rain and moisture would surely seep into it around the temp adjustment knob and would likely get into the digital display. I don't know whats inside the unit under the plate below the heating element but I'm sure there are some electronics and circuit boards there that could get damaged.

[@metaspherz]

@@AllAmericanMack I believe that you are absolutely correct. Rain, or any kind of moisture, will damage the griddle's sensitive electronics or at least set it up to electrocute somebody.

I still really like this griddle a lot, even after 3 years and haven't had any issues with it including the food sticking issues some others have reported. With that said, I know full well that the ceramic coating only has a certain lifespan so I'll keep using it until it becomes problematic. I agree with you that I would have liked to at least see a cast iron option and maybe we'll see one eventually. I'm probably going to get a Vevor or one of the other similar griddles next and a big plus is being able to use metal utensils.

One simple question, how many non stick frying pants have we all thrown out? Ceramic Teflon and all others all end up in the dumpster. In the long run. You will never see a high-end chef using a non stick PAN. And yes, I agree with you, hotspots are a good thing. It's how a real griddle works at a diner.

well probably 1 of the best review video's I've seen in along time but what u did to the shrimp and steak has to be some kind of heresy

Good for camping.

The griddle looks awesome, the well done meat however.....well you know.

Put parchment paper under the metal smasher and you’ll be fine

Very disappointed in the hood design. When moisture condenses on the inside of the hood it pours out the back of the griddle onto the power cord and table top when you lift the lid. Very dangerous and messy. Should have been designed for the condensation to drain into the drip tray. But it cooks like a champ.

[@AllAmericanMack]

You're right, maybe some type of intergrated channel that emptied into the drip pan would be better. My surface isn't level so I haven't got the condensation on the power cord but I get it all on the lower side and just place a rag there to absorb it.

Just bought one on clearance brand new for a steal $40

[@AllAmericanMack]

That's a steal! I usually never see those great deals at the Walmarts in my area and I check frequently. I've been looking for a larger outdoor Blackstone and they were discounted about $20 here this week.
