🛒 Ingredients Breakdown

Mastering griddle techniques is the secret to elevating your potato cooking game, whether you’re crafting crispy hash browns or perfectly golden potato wedges.

With Blackstone recipes, you can turn ordinary spuds into griddle-cooked masterpieces bursting with flavor!

Baby Yukon Gold Potatoes: These golden-fleshed potatoes have a naturally buttery flavor and hold their shape well during cooking. Quarter them for the perfect bite-sized pieces.
Olive Oil: Helps achieve that perfect crispy exterior. Use a high-quality oil that can withstand high heat.
Salt and Pepper: Classic seasonings that enhance the natural potato flavor. Use kosher salt for better distribution.
Dried Parsley: Adds a pop of color and subtle herb flavor without burning on the griddle.
Shredded Cheddar Cheese: Choose sharp cheddar for maximum flavor. Pre-shredded works fine, but freshly grated melts better.
Bacon: Adds smoky flavor and crispy texture. Pre-cooked bacon bits work great for convenience, or chop and cook your own.

Ingredients on a table: a bowl of potatoes, a bottle of olive oil, shredded cheese, parsley flakes, and chopped bacon, with a red and white checkered cloth in the background.
