Griddle 101: Omelets and Over Easy Eggs


Omelet and Eggs

Hello Friends,

A few months ago, I posted a video about making bacon and scrambled eggs on the griddle. Since then, some of you have asked about omelets and over-easy eggs—so I figured I’d expand a bit and share more about my technique.

This video is a little different. I’m talking directly to the camera and slowing things down so you can really see the full process. The big takeaway? I always cook eggs last, and if you’ve followed me for a while, you know I keep the heat low—around 300–325°F.

I actually picked up this method from a channel called True North Café (they used to make great griddle videos). Here’s the process:

  • Scrape your griddle clean from whatever you just cooked.
  • Spray or squirt a little oil on the surface.
  • Wipe it down with a paper towel to clean it up.
  • Then drop your eggs or omelet.

There’ll still be a light coat of oil left, which helps prevent sticking while keeping the surface clean. You shouldn’t see any black marks or burnt bits under your eggs if it's done right.

I go into more detail in the video below. Hope it helps!
