Fire up the Blackstone griddle and set three burners to low.

Prepare the ingredients: 2 boneless skinless chicken thighs, flour, egg wash, buffalo style coating and seasoning, sweet vidalia onion, jalapenos, tomatoes, lettuce, pepper jack cheese, buns, hot sauce, and ranch dressing.

Coat the chicken thighs in flour, then dip them in egg wash, and finally coat them with buffalo seasoning on both sides.

Check the griddle temperature, aiming for 350-400°F.

Add a good amount of canola oil to the griddle for shallow frying.

Place the chicken on the griddle and add the whole sweet vidalia onion on the cooler side to soften.

After 3-4 minutes, flip the chicken to check for doneness and add more oil if needed.

Check the internal temperature of the chicken, aiming for 170°F, flipping as necessary.

Once the chicken reaches about 175°F, add pepper jack cheese on top to melt.

Toast the buns with butter on the griddle until golden brown.

Prepare the sandwiches by placing the chicken on the toasted buns, adding hot sauce and ranch dressing, followed by onions, jalapenos, lettuce, and tomatoes.

Cut the sandwich in half to reveal the inside and serve.
