Step 1

Preheating the griddle properly takes time! Give it at least 15 minutes over medium heat to come up to temp over the entire surface before you start cooking.

Step 2

Less is more on the heat side of things! Cook over low temperatures when you are starting out. If the LOW setting is still too high, turn off one of the burners and cook on the edges of the burners that are fired.

Step 3

Melting domes are your friend! Use them, love them, keep them handy.

Step 4

Big long spatulas are also your friend. You're going to want several hanging around.

Step 5

Cooking for a crowd? You might want a cart to roll on out with all of your ingredients.
