23.5" Cast Iron Grill Grate Half-Moon
- Two zones: cast iron on one side, your stainless steel grate on the other
- Extra thick cast iron holds heat for a long time
- For the Smart Qooking System of the 23.5 inch
On a large kamado you sometimes want two things at once: searing a steak and gently cooking a piece of chicken further along. This half moon grate at 23.5 inch, made from extra thick cast iron, gives you that second zone next to your existing stainless steel grate.
Why cast iron next to stainless steel
Cast iron heats up more slowly than stainless steel, but holds the heat far longer afterwards. Put your meat on the cast iron side and you get a deep grill mark and a firm crust, while the stainless steel side next to it stays milder for dishes that tolerate less direct heat. That way you split your kamado into two cooking temperatures without having to build a second fire.
- Extra thick cast iron, around 5 kilos
- Fits the Smart Qooking System of the 23.5 inch kamado
- Half moon shape: combine with a stainless steel grate on the other half
- Deep grill marks thanks to the stable, high temperature
Maintenance
Clean the grate while it is still lukewarm and then rub it lightly with neutral oil. Do not store it wet, cast iron rusts quickly.
