Before first use, the griddle top must be seasoned to create a non-stick surface and protect against rust. This process involves applying a thin layer of cooking oil and heating the griddle until the oil smokes and darkens.

2. Apply a thin, even layer of high smoke point cooking oil (e.g., flaxseed, canola, or Blackstone seasoning blend) to the entire griddle surface.
3. Turn the burners to medium-high heat. The oil will begin to smoke.
4. Allow the griddle to heat until the oil stops smoking and the surface darkens. This typically takes 15-20 minutes.
5. Repeat steps 2-4 at least 3-4 times, or until the griddle surface has a dark, even, non-stick finish.
