Food & Wine's Editorial Guidelines Published on August 20, 2024 Photo: Food & Wine During the warmer months, most of us gravitate to cooking our meals outside. And if you’re one of the folks that own a Blackstone, you know it can be hard to not use the crowd-pleasing griddle each day. While we’re all careful to make sure our food is done to the proper temperature and that our grill surfaces stay clean, there’s one thing that’s been missing: a place to keep our utensils clean and handy. Enter the Blackstone silicone spatula mat. With this mat around, there’s always a clean spot to rest your cooking tools, that way everyday meals stay clean and organized. And they are much-loved, with shoppers writing that they have bought more than one for themselves and to give as gifts. Snag one for only $13, just in time for your Labor Day weekend backyard party. Blackstone Silicone Spatula Mat Amazon $13 at Amazon This Blackstone spatula mat is made of flexible silicone, and because of its material, it doesn’t slide around, staying securely wherever you put it. The mat measures 11.5 by 7.25 inches, and fits nicely on the side shelf of a grill. Thanks to its roomy surface, it can hold a spatula with other essential grilling tools, like tongs or forks. Plus, this mat has a lip around the border which helps to keep everything contained. It’s resistant to heat, so hot utensils won’t damage it either. This mat is ideal for using outside and inside next to the stove, and its small size also makes it perfect for taking along camping or RV trips. And after you’re done using it, simply wash it with warm water and soap for an easy cleanup. Because of its design, it’s an easy place to store your utensils, as this mat ensures that they stay clean, and it also keeps the shelf from getting dirty. Over 2,100 shoppers have praised this mat for its easy-to-clean design, its size, and its time-saving capability. “I can’t imagine cooking on the Blackstone without it,” writes one reviewer, adding that it’s the “perfect size and holds all your tools in place without sliding.” A second shopper also praised its design. “It saves time not having to clean up grease from the shelves,” they noted. “No more paper towels to lay spatulas,” says a third customer. “We bought one for our camper and liked it so much, we bought two more. One for home and one for a friend,” states another reviewer. Grilling season is far from over, and if you’re gearing up for Labor Day, now’s the ideal time to grab this clever gadget.
