This cast iron grill grate 23 inch is the half-moon version for the Smart Qooking System of your Grill Bill XL. You slide it into the frame and keep your stainless steel grate on the other half, so you combine searing on cast iron with gentle cooking on stainless steel in the same session. Swapping grates halfway through the cook is no longer necessary.
What you use this cast iron grill grate 23 inch for
The extra-thick cast iron gets nice and hot and holds that heat for a long time, exactly what you want for deep grill marks on a steak or firm vegetables. On the other half of your frame you place dishes that need less direct heat, such as fish or chicken. That way you cook on two zones at once without having to move your fire.
- Thick cast iron: hotter than stainless steel and stays hot much longer
- Half moon shape, so you keep the other half free
- Made for the Smart Qooking System of the 23 inch Grill Bill
- Sets crisp, dark grill marks on meat and vegetables
- Weighs 2kg and can be moved with one hand
Which kamado does this grate fit
The grate is made for the 23 inch Grill Bill and belongs to the Smart Qooking System, the frame with which you split your cooking surface into two zones. Together with a stainless steel grate on the other half, you form the full cooking surface of your kamado. For the rest of your size, check out the 23.5 inch XL accessories.
Maintenance
Clean the grate while it's still lukewarm, when residue comes off most easily. Then rub the cast iron lightly with oil: this keeps rust away and builds up a natural non-stick layer over time. Don't leave the grate wet inside the kamado.
Also check out the other kamado accessories for your Grill Bill, such as a heat deflector for indirect cooking or the ash drawer to clean up quickly after cooking.
