BEFORE FIRST USE
Griddles
Griddle tops are shipped with a protective coating of grease. Remove this film only when the griddle
plate is being cleaned prior to its first cooking use. Use a non-corrosive, grease dissolving
commercial cleaner, following manufacturer's directions. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft
clean cloth. Clean all accessories. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry.
Caution: This griddle plate is steel, but the surface is soft and can be scored or dented
by careless use of spatulas or scrappers. Be careful not to dent , scratch or gouge the
plate. Do not try to knock off loose food that may be on the spatula by tapping the
corner edge of the spatula on the griddle surface.
A new griddle surface must be seasoned to do a good cooking job. The metal surface of the griddle
is porous. Food tends to get trapped in these pores and stick. It is important to season the griddle
with cooking oil before using the griddle. Seasoning will give the griddle surface a slick, hard finish
from which food will easily release.
Season the griddle top plate at low setting. Pour one ounce of cooking oil onto the plate per square
foot of the griddle surface. With an insulated cloth, spread the oil over the entire griddle surface.
Wipe off any excess oil. Repeat this procedure 2 to 3 times until the griddle has a slick looking
surface.
