Cooking a steak using Blackstone Griddle

Blackstone Griddle is a fantastic way to cook a steak perfectly. This grill has enough space for all sides and can maintain the temperature for perfect searing.

A Blackstone griddle is a great way to cook steaks

The flat-top grill steak recipe uses propane and flat-top grills to sear the steak perfectly. This locks in the moisture and prevents the meat from drying.

More surface area is available for cooking, so you don’t have to worry about maintaining an even temperature. The griddle’s flat top surface distributes heat evenly.

How do you grill steak on a Griddle?

Cooking a steak on a Blackstone griddle grill is easy. You can cook most steaks by heating the grill to 450-500 degrees. Once the grill is hot, place the well-seasoned steaks on the grill and allow them to sear in order to develop that nice crust. 

As with all meats, steak should not be cooked according to the timer. Cook your meat according to its internal temperature.

Let your steaks rest for 5 minutes after removing them from the grill to allow the moisture to redistribute. This will allow the meat to continue cooking, so be aware of cooking times.

How to tell if a T-bone steak has been cooked

A meat thermometer can be used to help you know when your steak is cooked. You can feel its cooking temperature by pressing down on a steak measuring about 3/4 inches thick. It will cook faster if it is firmer, and less moisture is released when you press.

You will soon be able to use your tongs to check the doneness of the meat with a little practice. Don’t flip steaks with a fork. Stabbing the meat with tongs can cause all the internal moisture and flavorful juices of the meat to evaporate.

Which cuts of steak are the best for grilling?

Although this recipe is for T-bone steak, you can use it with other steak cuts. Blackstone griddle steaks can be made from any cut, but I prefer certain cuts. For a few reasons, I prefer thicker cuts.

The thicker cuts of steak, such as Cowboy Ribeyes, are 1-2 inches thick and contain a lot more margarined fat. Blackstone griddles are great for evenly cooking the steak and melting the fat into the cut of meat. The temperature can also be easily controlled so that it doesn’t cook too long.

A cut such as a T-bone steak, New York Strip, or Grilled Flaming Steak, although it’s typically thinner, has excellent marbling. These cuts will cook quicker but will still be more controlled over the temperature.

Chateaubriand, Filet Mignon, or Chateaubriand can still be cooked on a flat top griddle, but these steaks will benefit from a lower cooking temp. This allows you to enclose the surface more easily.

What steak cuts would you not cook on a grill?

There aren’t many cuts that I wouldn’t cook on a flat-top grill. However, I prefer to use the reverse sear method to cook thicker cuts on my pellet grill. This allows me to take advantage of the lower temperature and lid to let the thickest cuts reach the desired internal temp without drying them out.

Reverse searing can be done with a Blackstone griddle

Blackstone Griddles can be used to reverse-seared steaks. This method can be used to cook steaks in many different ways.

What toppings are possible for a steak?

You can top the steak with many toppings, including crab meat, peppercorn sauce, steak sauce, and grilled onions.

If you are looking for some ideas on how to top your flat-top grill steaks, I have a few suggestions.

Do I cook steaks well?

If you prefer a well-done steak, I’m not going to tell ya that it is impossible to cook it properly. Most steaks that are well-done end up being tough and leathery after they’re cooked too long.

Many chefs and cooks, both professionals and amateurs, will tell you not to cook steaks at that temperature. It’s just too easy to ruin a perfectly cooked steak.

If the steak has enough margarine fat to preserve some of its juiciness, it can be cooked and eaten. Look out for cuts with a lot of fat, such as ribeyes.

Make sure to get the ketchup ready for your well-done steak.

What side dishes can I serve with my steak?

You can add whatever you like, but my option is a steak sauce, caramelized onions, mushrooms, and more.

Ingredients:

• T-Bone Steak (or another steak of your choice)
• Salt and pepper

Instructions

Direct Sear Method

• Preheat your Blackstone to medium heat. Season the steak with salt and pepper on both sides and rub it nicely.
• Place the T-bone (or another steak) on the grill.
• It will form a crust if you don’t touch it for a few minutes.
• Turn the steak once and cook on the other side until there is a crust and the steak reaches the desired temperature.
• You will need to sear the sides if your steak is very thick. To ensure even cooking, you will need to lower the heat to medium-low and cover the steak with a lid or dome if it is particularly thick.

Reverse Sear Method

• Season the meat and place it on a smoker at 180-200F. The steak should sear for 1 hour, approximately, or until it reaches 120F.
• Place the meat on a Blackstone griddle preheated at medium-high heat. Let the meat rest for 2 to 3 minutes to form a crust.
