Cooking Sausages On The Blackstone Griddle

As part of my renewed enthusiasm to bring new content to my channel, I am going to start to bring you "everyday" cooks. In the past, I would worry about bringing you too many basic hot dog lunch types of videos BUT this is real life. I'm not always coming up with groundbreaking new griddle recipes. Granted, I've got many earth-shattering recipes coming soon (stay tuned for that, bubba) but I want to be real with you.
For the record, the whole family agreed that both of these sausages were some of the best we've ever had. They did cost quite a bit more than regular hot dogs. I wouldn't buy the expensive stuff like this every week but they sure did hit the spot today!

Perfect chemistry, Natalie was cracking me up!

[@waltwins]

Love this man! Just purchased and "unboxed" my Blackstone Griddle & Air fryer Combo. I cannot wait to get up tomorrow to season it - thank you for the perfect guide video for seasoning! I will be following your recommendations for first seasoning. It's helping us change the direction of our channel. Smashed the like button on this, these look ridiculously good!

[@billthomas7933]

What a goofy kid but don't worry Natalie someday your Dad will grow up. Good looking dogs as always you forgot the hatch green stuff. God bless you and yours.

[@FlatTopGrilling]

Love that you are getting your family in on the videos. We do the same thing. Great time to come together doing something that we all enjoy!

[@jasonstarr6419]

Been cookin on my recently acquired 28" Blackstone griddle w/deep fryer. Made breakfast today; ham steaks, bacon, eggs with cheese, and onions/red bellpeppers for good measure. Then, for a late lunch, cheeseburgers with more of the onion/red bellpepper mix. Toasted the bread (didn't have buns), and they all were super tasty. Can't wait to go to Costco in the morning and get some dogs and sausages!!! Keep the great vids coming! Love your family, and super stoked to discover the wind guards.[Edit 4/28/20 - Just grilled some Bison dogs from Costco. Mucho excellente!! Thanks for pointing them out!!]

Chris! Thanks so much for watching. Absolutely, I was born and raised in western PA. I spent my first 25 years there and moved out here to Colorado 25 years ago. I think we'd like many of the same things, for sure including that sauerkraut!!! I sure do appreciate you watching. God bless you!

[@robertbarnes5839]

Todd. I seasoned my griddle with flax seed oil ....about 6 layers. Clean it with water as soon as I’m done & then a light layer of corn oil all round. Ready to go for the next meal ....always looking like I brand new! 😊.

Thanks Michael - I appreciate you watching and laughing with us. God bless!

[@TroySR71]

Great job Todd, I love how you figured out a way to "re-brand" yourself during these challenging times we all find ourselves navigating through. I can only hope that Blackstone appreciates it and recognizes the fact that you are even more of an asset to them, now that everyone is on Double Secret Probation (oops, I mean on Stay at Home Orders) with nothing else to do but figure out another way to spice it up a bit (outside of the bedroom ... lol). I hope that they are still throwing gold coins your way to feed your family, keep a roof over your head and cover utility bills.

[@praisehisawesomename]

Hi Troy - I am blessed. The tour was canceled but that's the only change. Make sure you're watching Blackstone Facebook because I'm doing a couple of hours of livestreams cooking there each week, filming for Blackstone's KZbin as well as my KZbin channel here. Praise God as Blackstone's sales are still very strong, literally record-breaking so far this month. All good here. I hope you're doing well. God bless!

Great video. Ya just gave me a idea about making some wind guards for my "22. We're in voluntary stay at home here in Iowa and getting pretty board. These guards look pretty easy to fab up,,,,project time ! Thanks big guy,,stay safe,,

[@scottstevenson588]

Rob Dingledorf make sure to add some venting in your wind guards. Without it you can actually get too hot.

[@robdingledorf]

@@scottstevenson588 Thanks Scott. Will do. I've sealed it up before with aluminum foil and your right.

[@butchfernandez3537]

I just put the 28" wind guards on my Combo. Had to do a little modification to accommodate the hood but I was up and running in about three minutes. The rear guard covers up the RGMS about a half inch on each side but not enough to hurt the function. I bought the wind guards to replace the Dollartree scrapers I had been using. The wind guards don't get in the way when using the sides for scooping food like the Dollartree scrappers did.

[@bobholst874]

I used to love grilling Polish on my flat top! The brand I loved was a brand that went out of business, called Old Wisconsin. They were natural casing, course ground and the juicy flavor is unmatched! It is so disappointing to try others because I am one of those picky connoisseur snobs that really hates having to change when I found what I like! That being said, flavor wise, I found the Johnsonville Polish are nearly as tasty, although not nearly as juicy because they are not natural casing (gut). I have tries Smithfield, Schweizer, Ambassador, Coverdale and they all lack in flavor. The garlic and corriander and black pepper just do not compete. I have purchased a grinder and will get a sausage stuffer to make my own. That will be a challenge. Good grilling to everyone!

[@patriciaticknor6957]

We cooked burgers as our first meat on the griddle. The griddle was seasoned as per instructions, but our deck is a mess! What did we do wrong?

Those Teton Polish Sausages are hard to find. I saw them at Costco one time but didn't pay much attention to them then. Then I saw either this video or another recently where you were cooking them. I haven't seen them at Costco since, but I will keep checking since I just got the Stovetop Deep fryer Combo 28" this past Thursday at Walmart. I assembled it today and proceeded to get it seasoned. My first griddling was hot dogs and burgers.

I cook Johnsonville Beef Brats. The cook well on a grill and I expect them to cook well on a Blackstone, too. I may throw a few on one of my Blackstones, today, if it does not rain.

[@playbluesman1]

Where a grill is best used outside because of the smoke, it’s looks like the Blackstone is perfectly good inside a screened in porch. Is this correct? Plan on purchasing a 28” when the check comes in. Love your channel.

[@praisehisawesomename]

Hi, Doug. You are correct in your thinking BUT just remember that you are doing it at your own risk. Blackstone Griddles, just like every other outdoor cooking appliance are made for outdoor use only. Having said that, many people choose to use them in screen porches or in garages with the doors open, etc. I know of one employee in particular who uses there's in a screen porch like you described. When I'm not grounded (due to Covid) I cook under a tent (on tour...see my older videos) for hundreds of hours each year. You are correct, you are not getting damaging smoke. However, You'll want to make sure you have good ventilation so as not to die from fumes. Remember that you're doing it at your own risk. Thanks for watching & God bless!

[@jaimehyatt7977]

So a couple of questions do you have a guess about how much more heat do you estimate you get from the wind guards. What company are they from? If I have an older model (front grease Mgmt) would I be able to have guards across the back as well?

[@billhickerson9382]

You guys are a hoot! Definitely going to try the Jalapeño cheddar.....and even the Johnsonville's that we have, "seasoning is everything"! Kind of off topic but what kind of camera do you use to make your videos, I'm looking for one for some projects I'm working on.

[@dominic0257]

Todd I need some advice on my Blackstone . I clean my Blackstone as I should after every cook but I need to know how to fix the top I think I scraped a little to much and I put I groove in it it spans in a circumference it’s not that bad but I wanted to know how to smooth it out with the rest of the grill thank you .

I’m consider a Blackstone and wondering if this would be safe on a screen covered patio? Also, if the winds blows during rain, it would get wet. Will it rust?

[@pasqualepapaleo662]

Where did you get that seasoning that you sprinkle on the dogs is it a combination of garlic and pepper please let me know where you bought it

[@rodneyparkhurst6726]

Do you prefer Blackstone seasoning in the jar for your own personal grill when you first season it, or the canola oil on your own personal grill when you first season it.
