I once know a guy who cooked on the crustiest grill I ever saw, and he said the food tasted better every time he cooked on it.  Your thoughts plz?

i used a blackstone yesterday for the first time cooking sausage, eggs, pancakes. in this case it was pretty easy to clean. just scrape everything off with a flat metal scraper which gets you 95% of the way there then wipe down with paper towl. then throw a little oil on it, wipe with paper towel all over, and you're done.
Do you find that you need to do that immediately after you pull the food off? I think they look great, but I’d hate to be stuck cleaning while everyone eats.

The best time to do it is when it is hot.  If the surface is seasoned well and kept clean it literally takes 1 minute to do.  I always hand someone the final plate of food coming off to take inside/wherever and immediately clean.  It is not really a time consumer of any consequence unless he griddle is pourly cared fir from the get go.

i agree with this albeit after limited experience.

on a very related note: i decided to purchase one today, so warm up this thread folks

I would like to add that he wasn't worried about getting sick, due to the heat of the grill killing all the germs.

The Walmart version of the 4 burner Blackstone griddle looks like a decent deal.

What do you guys think?

Pete, the secret is to eat while you cook.

That said, I hate cleaning my Blackstone.

I don’t own one but buddies that have them. Seems like a boat.. they love the crap out of them to begin with, then never use it, then have friends or family ask about it and end up having to get it ready for when they come over

Yeah, I definitely do NOT want something else to clean, but those smash burgers and delightfully toasted buns look great, and man alive the breakfast spread seems wonderful.

This might be a summer of 2024 thing for me.
