FAQs
Can I use metal utensils on the griddle?
While the griddle is durable, using metal utensils may damage the seasoning over time. It is recommended to use wooden or silicone utensils.
How do I remove burnt food?
For stubborn food residue, gently scrub with a scraper or a bit of coarse salt. Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners.
Can I use the griddle on a campfire?
Yes, the griddle is suitable for use on a campfire, but be mindful of the high heat and potential for uneven heating.
How often should I season the griddle?
Season the griddle before first use and periodically thereafter, when the surface appears dull or food starts to stick.
What is the warranty on the Chasseur Rectangular Flat Griddle?
The warranty information can be found in the product documentation that came with the griddle.
Can I use the griddle in the dishwasher?

Use cooking oils with high smoke points, such as vegetable oil, canola oil, or flaxseed oil, for seasoning.
Troubleshooting
Food is sticking to the griddle.
Ensure the griddle is properly seasoned. Clean the griddle, re-season it following the care instructions, and preheat properly before use.
Rust is appearing on the griddle.
Dry the griddle thoroughly after each use. If rust appears, scrub it off with steel wool, re-season the griddle.

Ensure the heat source is evenly distributed. For gas stoves, ensure the flames are spread out. For electric and induction, ensure the griddle is centered.

Care Instructions:
- Seasoning: Season the griddle before first use and periodically to maintain its non-stick properties and prevent rust. To season, apply a thin coat of cooking oil to the entire surface, then heat it in the oven or on the stovetop until it smokes. Wipe away excess oil.
- Cleaning: After each use, let the griddle cool. Wash it by hand with warm water and a non-abrasive sponge or brush. Avoid using soap initially, as it can strip away the seasoning. For stubborn food residue, gently scrub with a scraper or a bit of coarse salt.
- Drying: Dry the griddle immediately after washing to prevent rust. You can do this by placing it on a burner over low heat or wiping it thoroughly with a towel.
- Storage: Store the griddle in a dry place. Consider placing a paper towel between the griddle and its lid to absorb moisture if storing with a lid.
