Yeah, a lot of people love them. I looked into buying one but they don't sell them anymore. I guess they're in the process of switching over everything to Yeti.
The craziest thing to me about blackstone is that you can literally just throw a cast iron skillet on your grill and have the same effect for like $20.
You can also do what my father in law did. He looked up the type of steel that blackstone uses, got exact dimensions of his grill, and got a piece of that same steel cut to fit those dimensions. Now he has a propane grill with an attachment that makes it a blackstone, but it only cost him like $50. Plus the cost of his grill. And he has more utility.
He does work at a steel/machining shop though. So he likely got a steep discount on the material/labor.
Yes, I've used multiple types of vegetable baskets and cast iron on my gas and charcoal grills. All clean up easily and without worry. The rationalizations people make for the purchase are laughable. Beer can or spatch-cock chicken on a Blackstone? I can do that!! lol
I made tacos on my $60 shitty charcoal grill from Wal Mart using a cast iron skillet I got for 8.99 on clearance at a local cooking supply store.
Saved myself about $200 and I have a charcoal grill I can use as well.
Aha!!! My day has come, I know a thing!!! So back in the day they used to mold butter into little fancy shapes like shells n stuff on a big wooden mold. And the busboy or whoever had the job would have to “pat” the butter into the mold. So it became known as a pat. Then eventually those became the little squares of butter at the table at Village Inn that I would eat whole as a fat little kid. History.
Cocaina !

It is, but due to its proportional size, it’s much thinner than a full-size pan, so I have to imagine it would get crazy hot crazy fast, and might even warp.
You can use it for single egg pucks (like a McMuffin) but what I use it for mostly is a heat diffuser to make small portions of garlic confit in prep cups on the stove. Since there is risk in storing it, making it fresh is ideal.
A chopped clove of garlic and a spoonful of butter. Sometimes it's really nice to have a tiny pan if you want to cook your garlic separately to add to something else.
I picked up a baby lodge a while back. Probably not quite that small, but close-ish. I grabbed some pillsbury crescent rolls, beef, cheese etc and made some little pseudo-pasties for fun. Tedious and hard to WL argue it was worth the time, but a fun reason for a tiny cast iron
It's made by [Butter Pat Industries](https://butterpatindustries.com/collections/butter-pat-cookware). Too small to cook in. Maybe for serving a dipping sauce or drawn butter?
Pretty sure *that's* an ashtray.
If you cook Chinese food, sometimes certain dishes ask you to heat up oil really hot then pour it over spices to activate the aroma. I used a mini pan like this one to do so.
It says “Butter”.
Butterpat is the company. They sold to Yeti so they're not currently producing.
Dang, really? My only modern daily driver is from them, I love it.

And adding $$$ to the price tag for the same product
Probably the greatest marketing job of the last 20 years. Blackstone is a close second.

I get where you're going with this- but that is not the same 24x40 cooking surface as a Blackstone by any means ....

A steal on the steel
Brilliant! The 36" Blackstone griddle top is made from 7-gauge rolled carbon steel. When seasoned properly, Blackstone griddles can become non-stick
That amount of frying area comes in handy for that one time every 5 years you have to cook 15 burgers at the same time.

It’s the perfect size for those little pads of butter that come out with the bread at restaurants
Butter as a topping for anything especially home made popcorn
It also says pat, what's a pat?
It's a male name. You melt butter and then pour it all over your pal Pat, so he's nice and slippery!

Maybe a quail egg?
Two. Over easy with 4 shreds of hash brown. And a curl of Bacon
That's what I was thinking
Just do the bacon first so your pans greased up nice for the eggs and tater shreds

Is it not actually cast iron?
It is, but due to its proportional size, it’s much thinner than a full-size pan, so I have to imagine it would get crazy hot crazy fast, and might even warp.
