onlyfire 2-in-1 Cast Iron Grill Grate Replacement Weber Gourmet BBQ System

I absolutely love this thing. I'm a year round, backyard barbecue enthusiast! Weber is my favorite and I find them to be the easiest to use/clean and the most reliable charcoal grills on the market. This cast iron grate fits my 22" Master Touch perfectly. This is real cast iron and not porcelain coated. I am NOT a fan of the porcelain coated products. I find the coating flakes off with a lot of use. They can be easier to clean, but don't last as long in my experience. Cast Iron on the other hand, requires a lot more care, if you want it to last. However if you season cast correctly, it can act just like non-stick cookware. Don't believe me? Then read on. To start off, this is "PRESEASONED", but I have yet to buy a piece of cast that appears having seen a drop of oil. Everyone who knows how to care for cast knows, OIL IS CAST IRONS BEST FRIEND! The first thing I did was wash it is soapy water and dried it thoroughly (10 mins) on the grill at 200-250 degrees. (This is only time you should have to use soap on cast iron.) I then heavily oiled the top and bottom (Canola Oil) and placed it in 2 large kitchen trash bags. One inside of the other in case of a puncture. I then laid it on a flat surface (unfinished basement or garage floor is recommended) and sprayed an additional ¼ cup of oil over the grate while inside of the bag. Try to get as much air out of the bag as you can and fold over the top to keep air out. This thing isn't cheap and since I have more time than money, I let it soak for 2 days. 1 day with the top facing up and 1 day with the top facing down. This might be overkill, but I believe it will helps thoroughly season cast. Believe it or not, cast is porous and it will absorb oil to its center. Then I removed from the oil, wiped clean and let air dry on the grill for a few hours with no heat. Once dried, I heated on the grill for about 3 hours at 250 degrees or approximately 12-15 briquettes. Then I let it cool and lightly oiled AGAIN before cooking. This is so important. ALWAYS oil your cast before cooking! I get great sears, no tempering (dry-heat spots) and very little sticks to my cast. I did use a full vortex charcoal ring and got the grate to 800 degrees range. This definitely removed my seasoning and needed some TLC after that, but it didn't crack! The best advice I can give any of you reading this, is to NEVER, EVER, EVER, use a metal scraper or metal brush on anything cast. Not even one of those pumis stones. You will ruine all of your hard work in seasoning, because metal objects will remove the coating. Instead, invest in a heavy duty plastic scraper/brush or let your grates cool and use the coarse side of a kitchen sponge. Also, I find it best to use oil to scrub it, instead of water. Yeah, I said it. Use oil to clean your cast. Trust me...it works. Rinse well, wipe clean and let it dry. Then lightly coat with more oil after every use, especially if you don't use it often. If you don't cook in the winter months, I would recommend storing indoors and away from excessive moisture. If you do the above with any of your cast iron cookware, you will have many years of success(no rust either) and thoroughly enjoy your investment. I hope you find this to be a helpful read and my experience helps you enjoy your cast grates/cookware as much as I do. P.S. Aside from the initial wash, I never use soap on cast iron. Best barbecuing to you!

I purchased this cast iron grill grate for my dad. He loves it! The middle section that comes out is perfect. It fits perfectly on his Weber Kettle. It is made of high quality materials and was priced fairly for what it is. Because daddy ALWAYS clean his grill grates after grilling on it, there has been no rusting at all.

I was going through about 1 wire rack every year living at the coast. This looks amazing after 8 months so far and clean up is easy. The ability to remove the center to add charcoal makes it work like a chimney as well. I like the stability as well. This makes the Weber much nicer to use.

My husband needed a new grill grate replacement for his Weber and he wanted this one. He loves it!! We’ve had it for about 8 months now and it’s holding up very well. He’s very happy with it, it cooks steak and chicken wings like a champ!!

Good grate. Nice and heavy. Good price. Fits 22". Well worth the upgrade. Should work well on searing.

Was just delivered a few days ago, and today was my inaugural run. I heard a pop, and the circular inner grate cracked. I called Amazon, they are sending a replacement and hopefully the same thing doesn’t happen.

Leave your grate off the grill when starting charcoal. If you try the vortex method you are flash heating the grate which will stress the steel and iron grate. You put the grate on after you get hot coals, spread and put your lid on setting vents allowing the grate to heat to desired temperatures. Those trying to super heat your grates don't know how to properly use these types of grates.

Looks heavy duty , it’s heavy , BUT , the center grate cracked at 1st use. I will contact seller and hope to get a replacement.Other than that it’s still functional and would cook the same as a not broken grate one . Maybe I’ll just live with it , cooks good and hot .

Not a perfect fit as a Solo Stove Bonfire screen but more functional and better value.

Muy buena calidad de material, he visto reseñas qué dicen que se crakea, pero tienes que seguir procedimiento de curado y sazonado como cualquier utensilio de hierro fundido. La humedad es el enemigo de estas parrillas. Después de usar limpia y humecta con aceite y solo ocuparas lavarla de ves en cuando. Ajusta muy bien en el weber master touch de 22".

I was a bit concerned after reading some of the reviews. The grill grate arrived to my address in Australia unscathed & in good order - it was packaged very well. The cast iron grill grate is very good quality and so easy to clean, takes like 2 minutes 7 is easy if seasoned right to start with. I have used it maybe 10 times now with a Vortex grill cone packed with charcoal to the top and had half the sear grate and back of the outer grate as hot as the kettle will go with no cracking or discoloration. Excellent product. Only one small issue to date is most of the GBS kit fits except the Weber sear grate - no issue really as the sear grate with this is just as good although not quite as thick or heavy. Excellent product & a major upgrade to a Weber kettle if enjoy cooking on a clean grill. Get a hinge and some seal gasket off Amazon & your Kettle will be so much more user friendly & a pleasure to cook on.

Parrilla funcional, practica y muy bien hecha. Altamente recomendable

Grille en fonte parfaite pour notre BBQ mais je trouve que la partie centre trop espacée
