I got this Blackstone flat top grill for my birthday in April. Since then I've learned to absolutely love it. Great fried rice, breakfast of every description - hash browns, bacon, sausage, eggs any way you like them pancakes you name it. Of course great hamburgers and the best quesadilla I've ever made. Heats up fast and is very controllable for different temp on the two sides of the grill that are independently controlled. The front of the grill is never very hot and works well for keeping things warm while cooking something else. Used it this morning for the sausage crumbles and the scrambled eggs while doing the tortillas for breakfast quesadillas. Super easy clean up and cooking is a breeze. Totally non-stick now. It's never had a grill stone on it and I can't see ever needing one. Has a nice water proof cover. I throw a couple of empty cans on the grill before covering to keep the cover from touching the grill and allowing condensation to form and get a little rust going. This is the smaller "portable" model - but I would not want to move it very far without help. Even without the propane tank it's 80+ pounds. Plenty big for us but for a really big crowd the larger 3 burner model might be better. I've always liked cooking outside and this just makes it so much the better. So if any of you good people on here are even considering something like this, I give it a five star recommendation.

Mitch f Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 Sam’s Club vs. Costco I've grown disappointed in the last few years with Costco meat...not sure what happened. It’s seems I have to buy prime at Costco to taste what the choice used to taste like. I’m thinking of switching to Sam’s. I hear their meat quality is better than Costco...thoughts?

Both are market driven. What is available at what cost? This leads to variation. Buy the choice at either . It will be acceptable. When prime becomes important, go to a local butcher and talk. Think Harter House. If not, both Sams and Costco will have personnel willing to cut what you want. Imagine a 4" top sirloin roast. What they cut will be superior to what they have in trays. People, even there, respond positively to knowledgeable requests. How does a Sunday roast sound? nomolites and Mitch f 2

I get it Randy, Not that I have many tricks but am sure you all get bored of seeing us here in BilletHeadVille eating the same thing. There are many things we like and do eat monthly. Or even more frequently.

Can't speak to how other brands perform, but the Blackstone is pretty darn good. So why take a chance? Especially considering your billing rate and how busy you are lately.😎 Do let us know how you like it. Mitch f 1
