Griddle 101: 2 Most Important Griddle Skills

Temp Control and Cooking Order Hello Friends, It's kind of a long one today, so I apologize. I am updating my website and writing new blog posts. My goal is to make it the most helpful and easy to navigate site on the internet about griddling. I'm not running any ads or pop ups right now; that drives me nuts when I go to a site for a recipe and 10 things pop up in my face. Now I'm not saying I will never have ads, I just don't have them now, and when I do I don't want it to ruin the reader's...

Griddle 101: Crepes, Would You Make Them?

Crepes with Cream Cheese Filling Hello Friends, I did some crepes on the griddle and they turned out pretty darn well. I had made these previously at Bob Evans, but that was a long time ago so I was worried. In the end they tasted great with the cream cheese filling and chocolate sauce. It's probably more of a dessert than a breakfast item, but who cares? I feel like crepes aren't super popular but are very ideal to be made on a griddle. So I'm kind of torn wether or not I will put this in...

Pancake Art Hello Friends, I tried my hand at some pancake art on the griddle. I decided to do this as a Christmas theme and it turned out better than I thought it would.

Griddle 101: White Castle Sliders

White Castle Sliders Hello Friends, I love White Castle sliders. When I was in college and we were closing down the local watering hole, we'd often have the cab driver take us through White Castle. It was one of the only places that was open and you could get a crave case, which is basically a cardboard suit case full of 30 sliders. I've done them twice on the griddle, once with fresh patties and once with frozen. Both times they were good and the key is dehydrated onions. My Three Thoughts...

Easy Meaty Cowboy Stir Fry! Hello Friends, This is my first go at Cowboy Stir Fry and I kept it easy because it was a weeknight.

Griddle Brunch for a Crowd

Egg-Cellent News: Brunch Is the New Breakfast! Hello Friends, First off, I slightly changed the newsletter to look more like a newspaper. This isn't really important, I just liked the feel of it and thought I would share. Second, I am starting my "Quest for the Best" 101 griddle recipes.
