Guys... please re-make this comparison with an IR temp gun to show us how hot the griddle plate is. Thank you.

Will do fam!! We don’t have the IR fun for these vids we shot this past weekend, but it inspired me to get a new one, so we will for sure going forward!!🔥🔥

I put my ceramic on the low setting and I still get an amazing crust. Then when I am making 8-12 at a time they are also not hockey pucks

I got a few hints from the new book flip. Specifically from Denny's.... Can't wait to get my copy! Also, I would eat either one of these burgers. Flat top cooking is where it's at!

[@markduree7132]

This was a bit of an unexpected result, BUT, I think you’d get a better crust with the cast iron if it was hotter. And, you’d have more of the crust on the Ultimate, IF you could use metal. That said, you guys have a wood scraper. I picked up one myself, and I think if the sharp edge of the wood scraper were used, it may work out better than the plastic/nylon. Just a thought.

Congratulations on the second BOOK. I like the cover of the book. I will have to get it, but I must say. Watching you two on video is part of the fun. You two make the process interesting a and fun. I really don't see how you do it in the books. That said I know I will get them and I think everyone who cooks needs the books and to watch the fun here on KZbin.

Interesting comparison, but with the way you two griddle, its going to be hard to find the differences based on the tool, you both are amazing cooks so that is going to trump equipment everyday...another banger though as those burgers look legit!!!

[@matthewheld8577]

Wife bought me a black stone for Christmas dec22. Found your YT channel and bought your cook book though amazon. Now you have a new cookbook?! Your first cookbook looks amazing, but been unable to attempt cooking your recipes due to -25 to 80 degrees backed up with 80 mph straight winds. You can’t even think about cracking a match to start any type of outside grill right now. But the recipes that I want to try in the first book look amazing. I’ll by the second one hoping it puts the first to shame. Just sayin because I’m going on blessed blindness.

[@markknister6272]

Other than ruining with onions - good cooks. I’ll keep my iron griddle.😊👍

[@becky7329]

Ordered my copy!

[@jascadet]

What a great time to be alive... turns out there is no bad way to cook a smash burger. I could definitely tell the Deluxe wasn't hot enough, and I am wondering if it isn't as even a heating surface either. The four burners on my Blackstone are pretty even across the whole cooktop. Of course I could be wrong about your Pitboss... perhaps you can explore that a little more and put it in a video. I am curious, if you put a little oil, or even some butter down on the ceramic, would the maillarded patty come up easier? In any case, you guys do great work and make everything look delish! We may be asking the age old question here though... Adam or Brett, who is the better smasher, lol! You're both smashing! Griddle On!

[@waltwins]

Boom! You caught it all! For sure, Brett and I talk scout it all the time, we don’t know what our reluctance with “high” heat is. I didn’t have the burners all the way up. Since this vid, I purchased a new IR gun, and have checked it. After 10 minutes on high, the right side is almost at 600 degrees. The middle was just over 500 - all definitely hot enough to get the Maillard reaction. The second tip I had forgotten about (it’s been over a year!😂), is no oil on the deluxe - it didn’t allow the meat to “stick” to the surface long enough. I’ll work on it though!! Much love Al’s always Jason, GRIDDLE ON!!💪💪🔥🔥

[@waltwins]

Thank you so much fam! We are blown away!!!🔥🔥🙏🙏

[@SLG0921]

Congrats on the book, looking forward to checking it out just in time for a Memorial Day cookout! Curious as to what mistake was made on the Ultimate that resulted in the one burger sticking.

[@waltwins]

Thank you so much fam!!! There wasn’t really a mistake, Brett didn’t get a sharp edge. - the burgers will stick to get the good Maillard reaction, one thing we love about the cast iron is getting to use the metal utensils, we are able to scrape easily - both were incredible! Much love fam!🔥🔥

[@PopsAllgood6967]

Both burgers look delicious. It makes me no never mind whether it’s cast iron or ceramic, just as long as they taste good 👍

[@sherrysheffield1555]

This was awesome you two! Love me a Waltwins smash! 💯🍔🔥

[@howardbarlow578]

Between breakfast and smashburgers, I think you've determined the top doesn't really matter. You're going to arrive at the same destination, either way. While most will have a preference, if you're ready to buy locally and only one surface is available, buy it. You're gonna love it.

[@barrybebenek8691]

So was it too low a heat on the PB? Don’t use oil? (I have the 3 burner so I’m interested in the answer. I’m definitely looking for your books on the Canadian Amazon! You guys rock! 🇨🇦👍🏼🇨🇦

[@glennarmbruster4607]

that wood & metal table behind you in the beginning of the video -where'd you get that?

[@billw7894]

I just bought a sierra pit boss, would it be a good idea to use a little oil on the ceramic before placing the hamburger on the griddle

[@waltwins]

Thank you so much for watching! You could, but we’ve found we want the burgers to stick a little to get the sear (Maillard reaction) that adds flavor. Hope this helps!🤙🤙

[@bobbicatton]

Great comparison. There really is no loser here👍😊

[@poppaschlong2000]

You shouldn't use oil on the steel griddle. You want it to stick for a better reaction. There is a huge difference between a smashburger on a rolled steel with no oil and non stick. Never seen a diner use a nonstick top. Doesn't seem too transparent

[@waltwins]

Boom! Correct! It has been too long apparently!😂😂. I did this tonight and way better!💪💪🔥🔥

[@frankmarullo228]

Iron griddle , cast iron griddle , I'm old fashioned , metal is better , 30 years from now they will be saying ceramic is bad for you ! My example is ,, when I was a kid in NY. My dad bought a recliner chair made with asbestos the sales pitch was if you fall asleep with a lit cigarette it won't burn down your house !! Remember asbostes shingles for your house ? Not to say I'm old fashioned but NUFF SAID,, THANK you Frank from montana.....PS nice cookbook

[@danacaldwell1035]

I've heard if the temperature is to high that the griddles can warp. I'm looking to buy a griddle but that is a concern.

Looks like the pit boss did the better job but I own the pit boss so I might be a little bias.

Haha! No worries fam! They are actually both Pit Boss units, we were super happy with both!!🔥🔥

[@stevenmalgieri2246]

I'm in!! Can't wait for that book to arrive #SMASHED

[@bethmahoney2233]

Help! My husband asked for a griddle to use outside so we don’t set off the smoke detectors like we do when searing steaks and burgers on the stovetop in our cast iron skillet. He likes a really good crust. Here’s the twist…he wants electric, not gas. Also, he’s leaning toward ceramic for easy maintenance, but again, I think he’ll be sacrificing the crust he wants to achieve. Any ideas?

[@waltwins]

That’s a great question! The only electric griddle that is somewhat comparable to the outdoor models, would be the Blackstone E series ceramic top, but that is primarily an indoor griddle. You could use it outdoor in an enclosed area, but it’s a 22” 2 “burner” unit. The Pit Boss ceramic tops of the Ultimate and Sierra units are a great ceramic choice, although they are gas units. We have the ceramic units (Sierra and Ultimate), and they are awesome - we did a comparison to show you can get a good sear. The only issue some have is with the use of non-metal utensils on ceramic. I hope all of this helps a little bit! Good luck fam!!🔥🔥

[@bethmahoney2233]

[@rbiv5]

It looks like you flipped the burgers on the cast iron early. The juice was not permeating from the top of those burgers which is the que to turn. A biased review b/c you are spokespeople for Pit Boss.

[@waltwins]

Both units are from Pit Boss (Pit Boss Deluxe 4 burner vs Ultimate 5 burner) - We agree with your assessment on the flip - and using oil wasn’t necessary. Cheers!🤙🤙
