If you want to learn how to cook a steak on a Blackstone griddle, then this is the blog post for you! I'm going to walk you through everything you need to know in order to get the perfect sear on your steak, from what type of steak to buy, to what seasonings to use. By the time you're done reading this, you'll be a pro at cooking steak on a Blackstone griddle!

Choosing the Right Steak
The first step in cooking a steak on a Blackstone griddle is choosing the right steak. When it comes to steak, you generally get what you pay for. This means that the cheaper cuts of meat are going to be tougher and not as flavorful as the more expensive cuts. For this reason, I recommend splurging on a good cut of meat. My personal favorite is ribeye, but feel free to experiment and find what works best for you.

Another thing to keep in mind when choosing your steak is thickness. A thick cut of meat is going to take longer to cook, so if you're short on time, opt for a thinner steak. But if you want that juicy, tender steak experience, go for a thick cut. Again, it's all about personal preference.

Seasoning Your Steak
Once you've chosen your steak, it's time to season it. I like to keep my seasoning simple with just salt, pepper, and garlic powder. But feel free to get creative and experiment with different herbs and spices. The key is not to overdo it. You don't want the seasoning to overpower the taste of the meat.

Cooking Your Steak
Now for the fun part: cooking your steak! If you're using a gas griddle like I do, set it to medium-high heat. You'll know it's ready when you can hold your hand about an inch above the surface and feel heat radiating off of it. Then it's time to place your steaks on the griddle.
For thicker steaks, cook for about 3-4 minutes per side. Thinner steaks will only need 2-3 minutes per side. And remember, always let your meat rest for at least 5 minutes before cutting into it so that all those juices have time to redistribute throughout the steak.

That's all there is to it! Now you know how to cook a delicious steak on a Blackstone griddle like a pro. So fire up that grill and enjoy!
