How To Make Easy Blackstone Pierogies And Onions

Step One: Heat your Blackstone griddle over medium heat. You want it hot enough to sizzle but not so hot that it burns the butter or oil.

Step Two: Add about a tablespoon of butter or oil to the griddle. Add the sliced onions and minced garlic to the griddle. Sauté them until the onions are caramelized and golden brown, stirring occasionally. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes. Once done, move them to a side of the griddle where they can stay warm without burning.

Step Three: Add the remaining butter or oil to the griddle. Place the frozen pierogies on the griddle. Cook them for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy outside. Season with salt and pepper while they cook.

Step Four: Once the pierogies are cooked, you can mix them with the caramelized onions and garlic, gently tossing them to combine. Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh herbs if desired. Offer sour cream on the side for dipping or topping.

Easy Blackstone Pierogies And Onions Recipe Tips

• Preheat the Griddle: Make sure your Blackstone griddle is hot but not smoking to cook pierogies evenly.
• Use Butter or Oil Generously: Helps pierogies get a golden, crispy exterior while preventing sticking.
• Caramelize Onions Slowly: Cook onions over medium heat to bring out their natural sweetness without burning.
• Flip Pierogies Carefully: Turn pierogies halfway through cooking to ensure even browning on both sides.
• Season as You Go: Add salt, pepper, and optional spices during cooking for the best flavor.
• Keep Ingredients Warm: Move onions and garlic to the side of the griddle if pierogies finish cooking first.
• Serve Fresh: Blackstone-cooked pierogies are best enjoyed immediately while hot and crispy.
• Add Garnishes: Fresh herbs, sour cream, or dipping sauces enhance flavor and presentation.

Storing And Reheating Instructions

• Storing Instructions: Store leftover Blackstone pierogies and onions in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For longer storage, place them in a freezer-safe container or bag for up to 1 month.
• Reheating Instructions: Reheat pierogies on a preheated Blackstone griddle or skillet over medium heat for 3–5 minutes until warmed through and crispy. Alternatively, you can reheat in an air fryer at 350°F for 3–4 minutes to restore crispiness.
