Why choose a double-sided cast iron grate?
A cast iron grate is ideal for anyone who wants to get a more pronounced flavor, better searing, and more stable heat transfer from grilling. Cast iron heats up more slowly than stainless steel, but it retains heat for a very long time and transfers it evenly to meat, vegetables, or fish.
| Feature | Grilling benefit |
|---|---|
| Cast iron | Excellent heat retention and helps create intense searing. |
| Double-sided design | Allows you to choose the cooking style based on the type of ingredient. |
| Crescent shape | Suitable for combining direct and indirect grilling in a single setup. |
| Dimensions: 500 × 250 mm | Suitable for 23.5" grills with a corresponding grilling surface. |
| Stable heat | Helps maintain consistent results when preparing steaks, burgers, and vegetables. |
The ideal accessory for 23.5" Kamado grills
The half-moon shape is particularly practical for Kamado ceramic grills. It allows you to use only part of the cooking surface, combine different surfaces, and create multiple temperature zones. On one side, you can sear meat on cast iron while gently cooking dishes on a stainless steel grate or in the indirect zone right next to it.
| Use in a Kamado grill | Advantages of the half-moon grate |
|---|---|
| Direct grilling | Cast iron provides high heat for steaks, burgers, and quick searing of meat. |
| Combination of zones | Can be used on only half of the grill, leaving the other half for other preparations. |
| Steaks and burgers | Creates a distinctive grill pattern and a richer flavor on the seared surface. |
| Vegetables | Stable heat helps evenly grill peppers, zucchini, corn, or mushrooms. |
| Multi-level grilling | Suitable for systems that combine multiple types of grates and deflectors. |
What dishes is it suitable for?
| Dish | Recommended use |
|---|---|
| Steaks | For searing the meat, creating a crispy crust, and using a professional grill grate. |
| Burgers | For juicy meat with even searing. |
| Pork chops | For intense searing and a richer grilled flavor. |
| Chicken | For a seared surface and even cooking. |
| Vegetables and mushrooms | For more pronounced searing of bell peppers, zucchini, corn, eggplant, or mushrooms. |
