Method
 

  1. For the Blackstone Smash Burgers:
  2. 1. Divide the ground beef into 4 equal portions and gently shape them into thin, loosely packed balls.
  3. 2. Heat the Blackstone griddle to high heat and let it preheat for at least 5 minutes.
  4. 3. Place the beef balls on the hot griddle, spacing them apart, and use a sturdy spatula to firmly press down on each one, smashing them into thin, crispy patties.
  5. 4. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to turn golden brown and crispy.
  6. 5. Flip the patties and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until cooked through.
  7. 6. Assemble your burgers with your favorite toppings and buns.
  8. For the Blackstone Griddle Steak Fajitas:
  9. 1. In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder. Add the steak and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  10. 2. Prepare the vegetables by slicing the red onion and bell pepper into thin strips.
  11. 3. Heat the Blackstone griddle to high heat and let it preheat for at least 5 minutes.
  12. 4. Add the marinated steak to the hot griddle and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
  13. 5. Remove the steak from the griddle and let it rest for a few minutes. Then, slice it into thin strips.
  14. 6. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers to the hot griddle and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and slightly charred.
  15. 7. Serve the steak and vegetable fajita filling with warm tortillas, guacamole, salsa, and any other desired toppings.

For best results, be sure to preheat the Blackstone griddle thoroughly and use the 'smash' technique for the burgers to create a delicious, crispy crust. Experiment with different marinades, seasonings, and toppings to make these Blackstone recipes your own.
