All About Grilling

[ushdadude]

Reading some reviews on grillgrates and came across this. Do you lower the temperature on your grill to compensate for this and is it actually true?

They act like a magnifying lens on top of the grill’s actual burners. They focus the heat by converting it into infrared heat and at the same time, transferring it evenly across the surface. The manufacturer state that the temperature will get 100-350°F hotter than the temperature originally set on the dome of your grill.

things definitely cook faster and i did have to compensate somewhat. that being said, i still crank it up for steaks and smash burgers.

Am I the only who cooks steaks at 550 on the grill?

i'm excited to try 750 on my masterbuilt

Just be careful if it’s very fatty meat - it really like to make impressive flame-ups at max temp.

Searing one at a time and burning it off regularly after smoking have helped mitigate them.

Interesting.
It sounds like they are converting convective heat to radiant (infrared) heat.
In that case wouldn’t one expect the actual air temperature to drop and cooking efficiency to go higher at the grill surface?

i wanted to make my ooni fleishigs but my wife wanted it for actual pizza

Do people really use them? I grill 3-4 nights a week -  always think about buying one but feel like it will just sit there not being touch (maybe motzi shabbos, but i end up grilling ms )

I use it to serve bigger crowds, very diff than a grill its literally  a 36" pan

this is why i havent justified it yet. I can just use a cast iron pan on my grill (outdoor burner)

Anyone here tried grillgrates for a Weber gas grill and can opine on whether they are worth the money?

And its a klutz, I've taken it camping glamping its a breeze to cook on them for more than a few people
