Important Tips:
• Similar to a cast iron skillet, NEVER cook on a dry surface,
ALWAYS apply oil to the cooksurface prior to EVERY cooking
session (Use canola, soybean or grapeseed oil).
• After cleaning the Evo, pour 3-4 tablespoons of oil in the center
of the cooksurface, and wipe the oil over the entire surface
with a paper or terry cloth towel. This will condition the surface
prior to cooking.
• ALWAYS properly clean the cooksurface after every use while
the surface is still moderately hot. This will clean and re-season
the surface in preparation for the next time you cook.
• Do not use water, club soda, salt, soap, degreasers, cleaning
bricks, steel wool or any abrasive product on the Evo
cooksurface. These will deglaze the surface, remove the oil
seasoning and can cause rusting. If you accidentally deglaze
your surface, follow instructions below to clean and re-season
the cooksurface.
To re-season the cooksurface:
1. Apply about 4-5 tablespoons of vegetable oil to the
surface and wipe the entire surface including the sides.
2. Turn both burners to medium and allow the oil to smoke
and burn off slightly for about 5 minutes.
3. Reduce heat to low, wait several minutes and apply a
second layer of oil.
4. Repeat steps 2-3. The surface will appear dark and glossy
black. This repeated process will carbonize the oil and
create a blackened patina and a natural non-stick oil
seasoning.
5. Using the grill pad and cleaning handle, lightly polish the
surface smooth on low heat.
6. When the surface has cooled, wipe the cook surface with
a lightly oiled towel.
