Cast Iron Grate w/Pron

NeoTrout · 06-22-2009, 09:38 AM

Got my new grate from Craycort Cast-Iron-Grates. Did big pork chops for the first cook.

Built a pretty good sized fire and let it heat up a bit.

Cooked the chops. Moved off to the cool side. Fire was pretty hot would have got better grill marks but didnt want to char the choppage too much. Thew a hickory stick on and shut the lid to finnish.

The grate worked well. I was happy with the results. Cleaned up easy with water and a brush. I still have to experiment a bit but overall I think this a good product. Should last forever with proper care.

Can't wait ..mine just left the warehouse.

What's up with the ash catch mod? Is that to get the plate closer to the exit? less blowing ash?

No that's a good old style classic Weber before the clips became all the rage. Notice the wood handles on both sides.

Yep. No mods there. I just picked that one up at a garage sale for $20. Needed a little clean-up and a cast iron grate!

So tempting to order one I'm gonna wait a little longer.

mbshop · 06-22-2009, 12:24 PM

sure makes the kettle look like something very seriouse.

Great 6:45 in the morning and craving a chop
Thanks

Nice lookin chops!

Thinkin I might have to get one of those grates.

I've been using one 1/2 of a PCI grate for a Weber gasser but it can be
a pain to pick up and move around on the regular grate because of the
swing up parts that allow access to the fire.

Good looking product!

PIT BOSS · 06-23-2009, 04:04 AM
