How to Make Blackstone Fried Rice

Step 1: Preheat the Griddle

Heat your Blackstone Griddle to medium-high heat. Add vegetable oil and butter.

Step 2: Cook the Vegetables

Add onion, peas, carrots, and garlic to the hot griddle. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until softened.

Step 3: Scramble the Eggs

Push the vegetables to one side. Pour beaten eggs onto the empty side of the griddle and scramble until cooked.

Step 4: Add the Rice

Spread the cold rice across the griddle. Break up any clumps with your spatula and let the rice crisp slightly.

Step 5: Season

Pour soy sauce and sesame oil over the rice. Toss everything together until evenly coated.

Step 6: Finish and Serve

Stir in sliced green onions. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot.

Tips for the Best Blackstone Fried Rice

Use Cold Rice

Fresh rice can become mushy. Day-old chilled rice gives the best texture.

Don’t Overcrowd the Griddle

Use the large cooking surface of your Blackstone Griddle so the rice can fry instead of steam.

Cook on High Heat

High heat helps create authentic fried rice flavor with slightly crispy edges.

Prep Everything First

Fried rice cooks quickly, so have ingredients ready before you start.

What to Serve with Blackstone Fried Rice

• Hibachi chicken
• Teriyaki steak
• Yum yum sauce
• Grilled shrimp
• Egg rolls
• Hibachi vegetables

Variations

Chicken Fried Rice

Add diced cooked chicken breast.

Steak Fried Rice

Use leftover steak, cut into bite-sized pieces.

Shrimp Fried Rice

Cook the shrimp first, then mix them back in at the end.

Vegetable Fried Rice

Skip the meat and load it with extra vegetables.

Storage Tips

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat on the griddle or in a skillet for the best texture.

Making hibachi on the Blackstone is one of my favorite meals. Serve it up with a bowl of that delicious Japanese Clear Soup and a Carrot Ginger Salad for a very authentic take-out night.
