Blackstone Green Beans
Cooking green beans on the Blackstone Griddle in my opinion is the best way to make green beans. They're super flavorful and come out nice and crunchy. Perfect al dente.
They remind me of something you'd get at your favorite hibachi restaurant.
They're made in just 10 minutes and require very little prep! They're a delicious Blackstone Side Dish.
I chose to use French green beans that were already washed and cut to save even more time!
Plus they were cheap! Always a bonus when you can cook a healthy meal for less.
These green beans are made with simple ingredients. Simply seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic and then coated with a little avocado oil before they hit the Blackstone grill.

How to make Green Beans on The Blackstone Griddle
- First, add the oil, spices and minced garlic to a large baggie or large mixing bowl. Mix well.Â
- Then add the green beans to the bag and massage until they are thoroughly coated.
- Next, preheat your Blackstone to medium-high heat. Add the contents of the bag to the griddle.
- Cook for 6-8 minutes, flipping over occasionally. If you like a lot of char on your green beans, cook them longer, about 8-10 minutes total.
Stovetop Directions
If you don't have a Blackstone or flat top grill, don't worry you can make these green beans in a cast iron skillet or in a grill pan.
Combine the oil, seasoning and green beans in a large baggie or bowl. Coat evenly.
Preheat a cast iron skillet to medium high heat. Add the green beans to the skillet and cooke for 6-8 or until desired tenderness.
Substitutions
If you don't have avocado oil you can also use melted ghee or bacon grease. You can also top the green beans with crumbled bacon or parmesan cheese. You can even add soy sauce and ginger powder for an Asian flair.
