BLACKSTONE 101:  From Setup to Smashburgers

Have you thought about purchasing a Blackstone griddle, but are unsure how to begin? Do you already own one, but feel you need tips and encouragement? Does your Blackstone stick, have rust, or need re-seasoned and you just aren’t sure how to proceed? WE CAN HELP!

This two hour Blackstone demonstration will begin with the process of seasoning a brand new griddle. We will also go over use, care, cleaning, accessories, and pro tips.

Included is a lunch demonstration featuring delicious Big Mac Smashburger Tacos (ground beef, gluten- and dairy-free options available), homemade Big Mac sauce, toppings, and chips. Please bring your favorite drink and an apron.

Rising Sun Artisan Foods products used in this lunch demonstration will be available for purchase at the end of class.

Dawn operates a permitted and inspected Commercial Kitchen out of Saint Anthony. Her Business Management degree and background in the food industry sparked her interest to begin her own food business after a cancer diagnosis in 2015 prompted her to overhaul her diet and heal herself through food. Her company creates handmade seasonings, sauces, garlic paste, fruit spreads, granola, parfaits, and Charcuterie boards. Small-scale catering and Cooking Classes are also offered. Dawn's passion lies in teaching others that meal time does not have to be complicated and that healthy food can taste good. Your confidence in the kitchen is sure to get a boost after this interactive class! 

Activities are made possible in part by the Arts Council of Southwestern Indiana, the Indiana Arts Commission, a state agency, and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.

We value inclusion and access for all participants. We are pleased to provide reasonable accommodations. Please contact Alexianna at alexi@traditionalartstoday.org to make a reasonable accommodation request. Requests must be submitted 2 weeks in advance of class.
