Instructions for Seasoning the
Griddle Plate
If the griddle plate seems to lose its non-stick abilities over
time, the following instructions should help regain the
griddle’s non-stick properties. For optimal performance and
long life of your griddle plate, follow these simple cleaning
and seasoning instructions.
Prepping the Griddle for Seasoning
The griddle plate must be clean and all residue removed
before the griddle plate is seasoned.
1. Use a mixture of coarse salt and a small amount of
white vinegar to buff off any residue from the griddle
plate.
2. Rinse well with clean water.
3. Dry the griddle plate thoroughly.
Griddle Seasoning
Seasoning is a process by which a layer of animal fat or
vegetable oil is applied and baked into the cookware. The
seasoning layer provides a non-stick surface for cooking.
1. Use a paper towel to apply a thin, even coating of lard,
Crisco
®
, or olive oil to the griddle surface.
2. Bake the griddle plate in a 350°F oven for 1 hour.
3. Remove the griddle plate from the oven and allow to
cool to room temperature.
4. Apply a second layer of fat or oil and bake at 350°F for
1 hour.
5. Repeat process at least one additional time – making 3
coats of oil or fat.
After Seasoning
1. After cooking on your seasoned griddle, allow to cool
and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to dry.
2. Add a thin coating of oil or fat before storing your
griddle in a cool, dry place.
3. Repeating this process will season the griddle and
maintain non-stick properties. Performance will
improve over time with more seasoning.
4. To strip the griddle to re-season, a mixture of salt and
vinegar should be used to remove any oil layers from
the previous seasoning process.
