As a new Blackstone user, I find myself at your channel often. Great content! Thank you!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@davidlockwood8136]

Great instructional video. Really appreciate the tips/tricks. Leaving the “happy accidents” in the video is appreciated as well since I have many of them at the griddle. Hope you stayed hydrated.

[@JohnnyBrunet]

Tha ks David glad you liked it. Yes I always try to leave in the happy accidents I'm glad that's helpful for you. I appreciate you watching brother. And don't worry I had some beverages later that day after I was done.

[@Javaman92]

Hey Johnny I saw that you dropped a new video and besides checking it out I wanted to tell you that you were right. I cleaned my griddle and made toast the other day and it came out fine. Such a simple thing, make sure the griddle is clean. I decided to not butter the bread, I figured do it the same as I would in a toaster. It worked. Thanks for responding to my question.

[@JohnnyBrunet]

Hey buddy, I'm so glad you're toast came out better the second time. Ya with toast it will just absorb whatever you put it in so that's probably why it was a little off the first time. However sometimes I'll throw it right in the bacon grease and let it soak that up. Don't tell my doctor though lol.

For perfect sunny side up eggs get yourself a small cooks gas torch and finish setting the whites by running the flame around the yolk to set the whites.. this is a pro tip !

Oh that's a good idea.

If you have time to lean you have time to clean was hammered in my head at a young age by my father... He managed a Steak-N-Shake, Denny's and then when I was 20 He opened his own little dinner which he ran for about 10 years before his health went bad... Sold the dinner to pay all the medical bills... He still hates the fact he sold it... Thank You for everything you have posted about the griddle... It's taken me a lot to relearn everything that my father taught me as a child...

[@alf3553]

I purchased a Blackstone 28XL a month ago. I’ve been cooking for just my wife & I for the last month & yesterday I cooked for 4 adults & 2 kids 😂. Wow if you’re the short order cook , I’m the “ Wrong order cook “. I cooked up some bacon & some breakfast hash potatoes & a couple of hash browns patties & eggs & English muffins, but what I really misjudged was the timing on the Tater Tots, man those things took forever, they were one of the first on but definitely the last done. Next time Tater’s first & give them 5 minutes….then everything else. Today was a great French Toast Breakfast …. This griddle has been awesome & now the son-in-law wants one 😂

[@JohnnyBrunet]

Wrong order lol. I'm glad you've been enjoying the griddle with your family. Ya the tots take a while and pretty much all potatoes do. I usually put them on first then wait at least 5 min. It's ok if they get done early you can always flip them and hold them hot in your warming zone. Thanks so much for watching.

Awesome vid! I bought those rings based on another of your vids. They work great! BTW, a $4 pack of wood shims works great to adjust the grill level to where you want it!

[@JohnnyBrunet]

Thanks! And I'm glad the egg rings are working well for you. Ya I know I need level it, the problem is I move it around my tiny patio based on the sun. The sun puts an awful glare on the camera depending when I cook so I try to move it around but the whole patio is a hot mess so I never know which way it will be leaning after I move it lol. I'll grab a pack of those shimms, thanks for the suggestion.

[@bklough]

Same here with the moving and my decks a mess. I move the grill, watch the cleaning water drain, tweak a couple of shims, done. Keep rocking!

[@jenniferrodriguez-bp2wt]

"This is where you hide this with more cheese." 😆😆I love it! I need to learn how to stay calm like you. Maybe my new mantra while griddling will be "happy accidents". Thanks for another great video. I've never heard of a basted egg.

That makes sense Ross. Thanks for watching brother.

[@cornfed420]

Everyone says crack eggs on a flat surface. Never works for me. shells every time. On the edge of a pan or bowl, perfect most of the time.

I agree!👍

[@JohnnyBrunet]

Ya I've had mixed results with both. Usually I have the least amount of shells if I let them sit for a half hour and come to room temp.

I put eggs in a 2 cup glass measuring pyrex cup, then I hold it up to the to the light see if any shell is under the yoke! I have tried flat and edge cracking, only way I can be sure!

[@robertgreenwald2811]

I found, I get better results flat cracking on a paper towel. The egg cracks perfectly in the middle with no shell chipping and no spillage to clean up!

Imagine if you will manning the griddle at Golden Corral. We had pancakes, blueberry pancakes, choc chip pancakes, french toast, and adjacent was the meat grill for steak with eggs. The scrambled eggs came in a bucket & got cooked in the back & put in a steam pan. Ugh. Omelettes were a separate station. It was non-stop from 4am til noon when lunch shift took over but before noon we were already transitioning by starting the pizzas and vegetables... Working at a place like that will def make you re-think your life. Get some shims under the front of your grill, you'll be happier without that darn gravity issue! Thanks for the video!!! 😀

[@JohnnyBrunet]

Man that sounds like a heck of a shift at golden corral. I bet that kitchen was jamming back in its heyday. I've seen the eggs in a bucket thing that is pretty unsettling to say the least lol. And I actually just moved so hopefully I can finally get this griddle level! Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@gordonculp3646]

I've found it's much easier to make omelets in an omelet pan. Cook the ingredients, add the egg, once most of it is set flip it (most fun part)😊. Slowly pour half the set omelet on a plate, add your cheese, then fold the other side over the cheese. Easy peasy. All other eggs are perfect on the griddle.

[@JohnnyBrunet]

Ya the omelet pan is definitely the way to go. Are you doing it with the pan on the griddle or are you talking about inside. I just used a small pan for scrambled eggs on the griddle the other day and was surprised how well it worked.

[@gordonculp3646]

[@BEDavisBrown]

It never occured to me about tank placement and how the burners are affected that's a good tip, my mom and dad had owned small breakfast and lunch restaurants in the 40's & 50's and my dad's idea of basted eggs was to scoop bacon grease over the top of the eggs with a spatula because at that time it was either bacon or ham & eggs after all they were called greasy spoon restaurants at the time.

[@JohnnyBrunet]

Oh ya I've heard people call that basted as well when you baste it with the fat or grease in the griddle. That always makes a great egg!

[@BEDavisBrown]

@@JohnnyBrunet As a kid you just eat what's put in front of you and it wasn't until I had basted eggs in a restaurant that I discovered they don't have grease on the top back then we thought grease was part of the meal.

Yea Buddy, I have been cooking for decades, charcoal, smoking, stove top, baking, etc. Never a flat top though. Got my 28 inch Blackstone and have been watching your videos. Made some stir fry chicken today and it was the bomb(Used your vlog as a guide). I have used it enough to learn the temps of the my griddle top. Scrambled eggs have been my nemesis, they wanted to make a mad dash. And I have always had the top too hot also. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, it has been very helpful. Also do you have a link for that dome?

[@JohnnyBrunet]

I'm so glad my videos have been helpful and congratulations on the new griddle. Try squirting down some water and scraping it off before your scrambled eggs. It will clean the griddle and it will lower the temp for you. Then I like to pour the eggs slowly to let them set up and I make a well in the middle to contain them. I'll try to find a video where I do this and link it. Thanks for watching.

Hey Johnny, I saw a Gordon Ramsey video once where he said to never salt an egg until its done. He said it makes them runny. Maybe thats why the basted egg didnt set up so fast..?? Ill try it tomorrow morning and comment on your next video. Ill do a side by side test.

That's a good point maybe that was why. Let me know how your test goes. I might do one as well.

whirl looks great. might of got some but its made with lots of soy bean, something i try to avoid

[@briansingley6109]

I'm just clean this off.. 😅❤

[@bobholst874]

Here's two tidbits for you: If you are making a restaurant style folded omelet, slowly spread scrambled egg, use dome if needed, when eggs are at the cooked stage, put your cheese, and ingredients down, fold edges over and place a sample of ingredients on top of ometlet so you can keep straight when making several omelets. That is why they do this at restaurants...to identify what's in it. For egg rings, you want to baste those eggs as well. That is how Macdonalds does theirs. Also it prevents the overcooking on the bottom. We do muffin breakfast sandwiches all the time. Never toast the English muffin, place the halves face down and flat top grill them. This will prevent tough, chewey and dried out English muffins.

[@JohnnyBrunet]

Thanks for all the great tips! I totally agree about the water with the egg rings. They never burn when you do that and always come out great.

Half butter and half extra virgin olive oil. I prefer ghee, clarified butter.

Do you have a link for that diner oil/butter?

@Johnny Brunet Can you answer a question for me? I grew up eating what I used to be told was an over easy egg which is what you cooked but now I am getting told that is an over medium where the white is fully cooked and the yoke is a runny creamy sauce like yoke. What is the difference between an over easy and an over medium egg?

[@JohnnyBrunet]

Hey sorry for the delay on this. So I am definitely not the authority on this but I'll tell you my definition. I'll also tell you what I learned from a few years working in a diner. First: Everyone has their own definition of over, over easy, over medium,fried, and they all think they are correct and there's no convincing them otherwise. And their definition is whatever their Mom made them, so if you try to correct it you're basically insulting their childhood and they get very defensive 😁It's kind of like politics. Second: at Bob Evans, the breakfast chain I worked for. They defined it this way Over easy: Whites fully cooked, yellow runny Over medium: whites fully cooked, yellow partially cooked but still a little runny Over hard: whites and told fully cooked but not popped Fried: yoke, popped everything fully cooked I don't know if that's correct but that's how I do it. We never served any eggs where the whites weren't fully cooked.

@@JohnnyBrunet Yea I get the fact everyone has their own opinion of what is what based off what they were taught as they were being raised. I was just wondering if there was an industry standard and if so what that standard is and since you talk about working in a diner for some time I thought you might know if there was a standard and what it was. Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it.

[@JohnnyBrunet]

@@godssheep3959 no problem. Sorry if I came off a little jaded I probably just have some ptsd from talking to people about it at Bob Evans lol. I'm pretty sure what I told you is pretty standard across the board but I could be wrong. I've been known to be wrong before lol. thanks for watching and asking the question, sorry again it took me a while to respond.

I've rarely found a restaurant cook who can do over medium well. Always comes out well done with hard center. Order medium and it's always over easy. After a couple of months I can nail medium well, jammy yolk at home. Med low heat, probably about 300f, after the flip, lightly touch the yoke. When it starts not to yield much, plate it. Working on getting bacon medium..

Johnny Is there any difference in cooking on a stainless griddle vs carbon steel ? I live in a rainy area and am concerened about rust. Thanks

[@JohnnyBrunet]

Well I've never cooked on a carbon on. I have a stainless one at work and a cold rolled steel one is what I shoot most all of these videos on. The stainless one will not rust. The cold rolled one will rust but usually a protective layer of oil after each cook will keep the rust away. Also if it's a rainy area, no matter what griddle you buy Id highly recommend a hard cover.

I worked short order in four different restaurants and in none of them did we cook eggs on the flat top. Eggs, especially omelets, were always cooked in fry pans that were kept on the gas stoves next to the flat top, which was used for bacon/Sauage, hash browns, pancakes and steaks.

[@JohnnyBrunet]

Ya most of the commercial kitchens I was in and restaurants had designated egg and omelette pans as well. All this information was from my time at Bob Evans which is a popular breakfast place in the Midwest (500 stores). They had 4 flat tops per store and no ranges. So two of the flat tops were specifically for eggs and omelettes, no meat or potatoes ever. From my 20 years in restaurants and food services I was lucky enough to learn a lot of different ways to do the same thing. I did all these eggs in a griddle bc that's what my KZbin channel is about. I appreciate you watching Doug.

[@douglaspierce8480]

@@JohnnyBrunet Sorry, I've never been to a Bob Evans restaurant, there weren't any were I lived, so I didn't know how they were lied out.

[@JohnnyBrunet]

@@douglaspierce8480 no problem I didn't take any offense by your comment. I like using the pans as well. In one of the retirement communities I worked at we would do omelette stations every Sunday in the dining room. I loved using the pan for that

[@azure6392]

AFAIK navy is the only place where scrambled eggs are done on a flat top They use an oar to stir it.😊
