This Blackstone stainless steel burger press is mainly for smash burgers and flat searing, with enough weight to improve contact and give an even crust. The slim, lightweight shape makes it easy to handle and store, and stainless steel is easier to clean than cast iron, even dishwasher friendly. It also works for holding bacon down or pressing burgers straight down with less fuss than a wide spatula. The main knocks are that it feels too light for some, the ribbed back can stick to burgers, and cast iron is still seen as better for heat retention and versatility.
Common Questions (5)
It weighs about 1.85 lb and is heavy enough for smash burgers, bacon, and keeping meat flat for an even sear. It is not meant to smash steak hard; it works best as a weighted press to improve contact with the cooking surface.
Yes. The stainless steel version is easier to clean, and it can go in the dishwasher, while cast iron needs more cleanup and maintenance.
It is better on a griddle or cast iron skillet than on a slotted grill. On a grill, the liquid can smoke off through the slots instead of staying in contact with the meat, which makes it less effective for smash burgers.
Yes. The ribbed back is a deal breaker for some smash-burger use because it can leave parts of the burger stuck to the press and pull the patty apart when lifting.
It can. Stainless and cast-iron presses get hot unless the handle is insulated, so a wooden or otherwise insulated handle is safer for longer cooking sessions.

The Blackstone Smash & Sear Press weighs 1 pound, 1 ounce (16 ounces / 1.85 lbs).
Customers mention it's the perfect weight—heavy enough to create an excellent smash and sear, but not so heavy that it causes hand fatigue during use.
I asked a follow up question. 'Are you sure. 1 pound, 1 ounce should be 17 ounces or 1.0625 lbs.' Alexa's response is in Italics.
You're absolutely right, and I apologize for the conversion error. The Blackstone Smash & Sear Press weighs 1.85 pounds (or 29.6 ounces).
1 pound + 1 ounce = 17 ounces total, which would be 1.0625 lbs — so thank you for catching that mistake.
