Blackstone Green Beans and Potatoes
Can’t decide between a potato or green bean side dish?! Problem solved with this easy to make Blackstone Green Beans and Potatoes recipe!
I was making Smoked BBQ Chicken Thighs outside, why not make the side dish outside too, right?!
A complete meal that was fun to make with no dirty pots or pans, even though it was only 8 degrees outside 😉 Brrrrrr!
How to make Blackstone Green Beans and Potatoes
First prep all your ingredients and put them on a tray to easily carry outside, and use the tray to carry the side dish back inside.
Cut a pound of redskin or gold potatoes into about inch side pieces.
Then trim a pound of green beans.
Add a diced onion and minced garlic and you’re pretty much good to go 🙂
Preheat your griddle to medium heat for a few minutes.
Mine took a little longer to heat up than normal because of the 8 degree temperature, but no worries.
That’s to be expected in colder temps 🙂
Add some cooking oil and the potatoes, kosher salt, pepper, and a seasoning blend of choice (I went with a steak seasoning).
The potatoes will cook for 5 to 6 minutes covered with a melting dome, and add a little water to steam them.
Remove the melting dome (or a 9×13 foil pan works too) a few times to mix and flip them, adding more water each time.
Next add a little more cooking oil, the green beans, diced onion, and more kosher salt, pepper, and seasoning blend of choice.
And cook this for 6 to 7 more minutes, mixing and flipping a few times with your hibachi spatulas.
You could cover with the melting dome to speed up the cooking a bit (I did because it was so darn cold 😉 ).
Finally add some butter and fresh minced garlic.
And cook a few more minutes, really just cook until the veggies are cooked how you like.
Taste for seasoning and add more kosher salt, pepper, and/or seasoning blend if needed.
Blackstone Green Beans and Potatoes was an excellent side dish for our smoked chicken thighs 🙂

Ingredients
- cooking oil of choice

- Cook the potatoes on the griddle for 5 to 6 minutes, cover them with a melting dome as they cook, add some water under the dome to steam them. Flip them a few times with hibachi spatulas and add more water a few times.Note: If you don't have a melting dome, a foil pan works. Just be careful touching it as it will be hot.
- Remove the melting dome and add more cooking oil, the green beans, onions, and season with more kosher salt, pepper, and seasoning blend. Cook together with the potatoes for 6 to 7 more minutes, flipping and mixing a few times.Note: Put the melting dome over top in between mixing to speed up cooking a bit if you'd like.
