Cooking burgers on a Blackstone griddle is quite the experience that combines the rich, juicy flavors of a classic burger with the efficient, even heating of a high-quality griddle.
As your burgers cook, you can also toast your buns on the griddle for added flavor and texture. Simply spread a thin layer of butter on the cut sides of the buns and place them on the griddle until they turn golden brown.
Once everything is cooked, assemble your burgers with your favorite toppings, such as cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles, and condiments. Enjoy the delicious, juicy results of cooking burgers on a Blackstone griddle, a method that promises a restaurant-quality experience in the comfort of your own backyard.
I love to serve these with some Air Fryer Arby’s Curly Fries. If you like these burgers try Blackstone Burger with Fried Egg.

Ingredients Needed
- 4 lb ground beef patties – The ones I used had chunks of cheddar and gouda in it. (80% lean for juicier burgers)
- 4 burger buns
- 4 slices of cheese (optional)
- Lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, and condiments (ketchup, mustard, mayo) for serving
How to Make Blackstone Burgers
Step 1 Heating the Griddle: Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat. A griddle temperature of around 375°F to 400°F is perfect for cooking burgers. If you don’t have an electric griddle, you can also use a cast-iron griddle pan on your stovetop.
Step 2 Cooking the Patties: Once the griddle is hot, lightly grease it with a small amount of oil or butter to prevent sticking. Place the seasoned patties on the griddle, indentation side up. Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on the first side without moving them.
Step 3: This allows a nice crust to form. Flip the patties and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness (160°F for medium-well). If you’re adding cheese, place a slice on each patty in the last minute of cooking and cover the griddle with a lid or a large bowl to melt the cheese.
Blackstone Recipe Tips
Toasting the Buns: While the patties are cooking, you can toast the burger buns on the griddle as well. Simply place the buns cut-side down on the griddle for about 1-2 minutes until they are golden and crispy.
Assembling the Burgers: Once the patties are done, remove them from the griddle and let them rest for a minute. Assemble your burgers by placing a patty on the bottom half of each bun. Add your favorite toppings such as lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, and condiments. Top with the other half of the bun.
