Why Use the Blackstone for Breakfast?
The Blackstone griddle is a total game-changer when it comes to breakfast. I love the large surface because I can cook everything at once — bacon, eggs, pancakes, hash browns — without the hassle of juggling multiple pans. Plus, the flat surface ensures even cooking and makes everything crispy and delicious.
Some of my favorite recipes to make on my Blackstone are my Blackstone Caramel Popcorn and my delicious Blackstone Garlic Parmesan Chicken.
What You’ll Need:
- Eggs (fried, scrambled, or over-easy — you do you!)
- Bacon or sausage
- Pancake batter or pre-made mix
- Hash browns or diced potatoes
- Butter or oil
- Spatulas and a squirt bottle of water for steaming
Step-by-Step Griddle Breakfast Recipe:
- Heat your griddle
Preheat your Blackstone to medium heat. Give it 5-10 minutes so it's hot and ready to roll. - Start with the bacon or sausage
These take the longest and render down beautifully on the griddle. Bonus: they leave behind some tasty grease that adds flavor to everything else! - Potatoes go next
Toss on your hash browns or diced potatoes. Let them crisp up while you prep the rest. - Pancakes, coming in hot
Pour your batter right onto the griddle. Wait until bubbles form before flipping. - Egg time
Last but not least, make some room and crack your eggs. For over-easy or sunny side up, add a squirt of water and cover with a dome lid to steam. - Serve it up
Once everything is golden and cooked to perfection, plate it all up and dig in!
Pro Tips for Blackstone Breakfast Success:
- Keep a bacon press handy for extra crispiness.
- Use separate spatulas for meat and eggs to keep things clean.
- Don’t overcrowd your griddle — give the food space to breathe and brown.

How to Make Breakfast on the Blackstone Griddle
Making breakfast on the Blackstone Griddle does not have to be hard at all! Cook everything all in one place and cut time in the kitchen in half.
Ingredients
- Bacon 🍖
- Eggs (sunny-side up, over-easy, or scrambled)
- Pancake batter or store-bought mix
- Hash browns or diced potatoes
- Butter or oil
- Salt, pepper, and your favorite spices
- Spatulas and a small squirt bottle of water (for steaming eggs)
Instructions
Fire it up
Preheat your griddle to medium heat. Let it warm up for 5–10 minutes for optimal cooking.
Get the bacon going
Lay the bacon across the griddle—its fat will render down and season the surface for everything else.
Potato power
Toss on your hash browns or diced potatoes and let them crisp up while you prep other items.
Pancake perfection
Pour your pancake batter directly on the griddle. Flip when bubbles appear and edges set.
Egg-cellent finish
Move ingredients aside, crack eggs onto a small pool of butter or oil. For over-easy or sunny-side, add a bit of water and cover with a lid or dome to steam.
Plate it up
Once everything is golden and gorgeous, serve hot. Don’t forget that extra pat of butter or a sprinkle of herbs!

Bacon press = crispier bacon
Use separate spatulas for meat and eggs to avoid cross-contamination
Avoid overcrowding—let food breathe to get that classic griddle sear
