Hey y’all, I bought a Flatrock last year. First griddle experience. As winter came in central VA, I pulled up YouTube, prepped, and then loaded this baby up with Avocado oil.
Thought I used too much, but threw the cover on in November and just pulled it off in May. This is what I see. Is this rust? Old fat or sauce from last year?
Remembering how oiled and uniformly glistening and black this was before being covered for the year, I am surprised. Some oiled surface and some not.
Traeger says this is normal. Google does not. Would love to learn from you guys what’s normal, what it is, and how to address to get this ready to go again.
Thanks in advance, y’all!

Hey! It looks like you posted an image!
If this is a photo of one of your cooks, maybe share the recipe and techniques
used, as it’s almost guaranteed one of the first questions you will be asked!
*What seasoning did you use?
*How long did you cook it, and at what temperature?
*Did you use any special tricks or techniques?
Traeger on!

I just use a scouring pad to clean it and then just clean it off and re season.
I’d heat it up throw some water on there and scrap it, oil it back up and cook
