soapy water.
THIS IS THE ONLY TIME YOU

Rinse and dry completely. Proceed
with seasoning instructions. (Please

tion. Always cover griddle if stored
outdoors. Choose from a variety of
griddle covers offered by Blackstone.
When protecting griddle with soft
cover, use the "tenting" method to
prevent water from accumulating
on griddle top. "Tenting" involves
placing an object (a bowl, tennis
ball or PVC pipe) beneath soft cover
in the center of griddle in order to
allow water to slide off. "Tenting"
helps prevent rust.

Enjoy cooking outdoors on your Blackstone!
Using a knife directly on the surface
of the griddle will not harm the
griddle top.
REMOVING RUST
If rust appears on the griddle surface,
rub it off with steel wool, low grit
sandpaper or the Blackstone
Pumice Stone and re-season
the surface.
