Carrots on Blackstone Griddle
Your Blackstone Griddle is your best friend when it comes to quick and easy!! Cooking these glazed carrots recipe will take about 10 minutes.
I like to slice the carrots ahead of time and have side bowls of brown sugar and butter already to go. That way when I’m ready to cook the carrots, it only takes a few minutes right before the meal.
How to make this Glazed Carrots Recipe
Gather all your ingredients to make your brown sugared carrots.
Preheat the Blackstone Griddle on medium. Add a thin layer of oil if your griddle looks dry.
Peel and trim the ends of your carrots. Slice the carrots into the desired shapes. I like to use a mandolin with the carrots on an angle.

Diagonal sliced carrots.
Once the griddle is hot, add the sliced carrots. With a water bottle, squirt water all around and onto the carrots. Immediately cover with a dome lid to steam the carrots.
Cook about 2 minutes, uncover, and stir the steamed carrots. Add more water around the carrots and cover again for a couple more minutes.
Time to test the carrots for doneness. If the carrots are not tender, then repeat the previous step. You want the carrots to be JUST tender because if you cook them too long, they will become all mushy.
Glazed Carrots with Brown Sugar
If the carrots are tender, toss again, top with the butter and then the brown sugar. Do not cover. Do not toss.
Just let everything cook for a couple of minutes. You will see the butter and brown sugar start to bubble together.
Stir once or twice. Once the desired doneness is achieved, remove, and place into a serving dish.
Glazed Carrots Recipe – FAQ
When cooking on a Blackstone Griddle, you will soften raw carrots with a dome lid and some water that creates steam. You will have to do the water, steam, and dome lid trick a few times until the carrots are tender but not mushy.
Fresh is best!! Yes, you can make them in advance, but the glazed carrots will not taste as good. The cooked butter and brown sugar will create a caramel sauce. When the sauce cools, it will harden creating a not so desirable vegetable side dish.
When you cook vegetables on a Blackstone Griddle, two things are a must. A squeeze bottle of water and a dome lid. Place your desired sliced vegetables on a hot Blackstone Griddle. Squeeze a stream of water on top and around your vegetables. Immediately cover all the vegetables with a dome lid.

I didn’t realize how easy it was to make carrots on the Blackstone, your recipes make everything so simple!
That’s why I love my Blackstone Griddle, it does all the work for me.
Yum! So delicious!
I made your carrots tonight on my Blackstone and they were delicious!!! I’ll be grilling them again!
Thank you!!
I’d love to try this (Blackstone newbie). What setting on the mandoline? 1/8th inch thick? Can I sub honey for the brown sugar??
I didn’t measure the carrots when I cut them and my mandoline does not have a measurement on it. I don’t see why you can’t swap out the brown sugar for honey but I have not tested it.
