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.
NOTE: 24'' griddles will not fit in the oven cavity for
seasoning. Therefore, care should be taken not to
overheat and damage their non-stick coatings while
preheating and cooking.
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.
