Blackstone Griddle: Conecuh Sausage, Pierogies, Broccoli, and Onions


I had been wanting to try to cook pierogies on the Blackstone griddle for quite a while.  Friday afternoon was the perfect October day to crank up the griddle!  Pierogies are dumplings filled with potatoes, cheese or both.  There's always a package of Conecuh sausage nearby at my house.  With broccoli in the refrigerator and onions in the pantry, I was ready to go!

1 T. vegetable oil
2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
3 T. salted butter, divided
1 lb. Conecuh smoked sausage, sliced 1/4" thick
4 cups broccoli florets
16 oz. package Mrs. T's Classic Cheddar Pierogies, slightly thawed
Red wine vinegar (optional)

Preheat the Blackstone griddle.  Reduce heat to medium and on one end of the griddle, spread the vegetable oil with a metal spatula.  Top with the sliced onions and spread them out into a single layer.  Lightly salt and pepper.


On the other end of the griddle, reduce heat to medium, and add the sliced sausages.


Continue tossing the onions and sausages while they begin to brown.  When the onions reach a golden brown, add 1 T. of butter and toss to coat the onion slices.

Add the broccoli to the griddle and lightly salt and pepper.


When the florets begin to brown and char slightly, add 1 T. of the butter and toss to coat.  Let the broccoli continue to cook.

In the middle of the griddle, add the pierogies.  They will need to cook to an internal temperature of 160 degrees F.  Using the metal spatulas, continue to toss the pierogies as they begin to brown.  When they reach an internal temp of 150 degrees F. bring them together in a small pile.  Have your basting dome ready and add 1/4 cup water around the pierogies and immediately cover with the dome.  The resulting steam will finish cooking them. Remove the dome and toss with the remaining 1 T. butter.


Doesn't this look great?


Now you'll start bringing everything together.  Using the metal spatulas, stir together the onions and pierogies.


And now bring the sausages and broccoli to the party!


Remove from the griddle and plate into individual portions.  Sprinkle with red wine vinegar if desired!
