New blackstone (<1 month) peeling excessively?

New blackstone (<1 month) peeling excessively?

Got a new blackstone from costco on April 19th.

Been covered since using it a few times. Seasoned 4 times. Now I went today and (pictured) it peeled excessively?

I dont understand how this happened lol. Was it painted?

Someone offered me this Blackstone for free, I'm just wondering if the griddle is even really restorable since it's rusted so bad? Opinions?

Best Cleaner

I always get this extremely hard to remove crud on the side of my Blackstone shelves. Even some on the handles, but the side shelves are the biggest culprit. What is the best cleaner you guys have to recommend to break through this stuff. I’ve used some grill cleaner, but think I need to resort a carburetor cleaner. Lol. Just joking.

Is this fine?

I have just been cooking on this like normal, and I just want to make sure that this little bit is not a big deal.

Making smash burgers tonight, and just threw an extra coat of avocado oil on

First time doing stir fry on my Blackstone!

I did a chicken stir fry tonight for dinner. First time I have done a stir fry on my Blackstone. I made the rice yesterday. I cut up the veggies and chicken. Threw it all on the Blackstone after using a SPG spice blend. Used some low sodium soy sauce that brought it all together. Forgot to take a photo while on the heat but it turned out delicious!

Did I do ok?

Completely new to this, I've seasoned some pans on the last. Followed the guide, did 5 passes with oil.

It's 5c out here (North Scotland) so it seemed to take a bit longer to burn the oil off & I have a small bit of pooling on one corner.

Pretty sure the answer will be yes but I'd like to ask the seasoned people.

After years of dreaming of one, my friends and family pooled in to get me a blackstone!

It says pre seasoned but I’m guessing it’s a good idea to do another coat? What tips/tricks do you have?

Howdy yall! Anyone willing to share their workflow?

It feels like I’m going through lots of parchment paper for smash burgers, and tons of paper towels for wiping after cooking. Maybe I’m just being a clean freak… am I producing more waste than I should?

Update: I got a cleaning stone, used vinegar, and reseasoned. She is much better and back in business. Thanks so much everyone for the kind help!

I have the silicone mat in use religiously, I clean and i did everything right. I ended up taking a stone to it being was frustrated, reseasoned ans its the same issues. I used the blackstone conditioner. My husband says its not rust.

Its where the heat is, too. I need help, please.

Haven’t used it all fall and winter but it was covered. I want to start using it again. Is it done for or can it be fixed?
