Griddle Maintenance Tips for Perfect Cooking

You are destroying your griddle if you skip the steam clean ritual. Start by blasting

the burners and checking the peep holes to ensure you have fire. Let that bad boy

preheat for a solid thirty minutes before slicking it with oil. For the beef,

no pink allowed, but do not burn it to a crisp, and always dip your tortillas in oil

so they do not crumble. When you are done, hit the hot surface with water to steam off the gunk.

Finally, burn off three thin layers of oil until the white smoke clears.

That is the only way to keep it ready for next time.
