Finally figured them out. Took a couple of cooks but I'm happy with them.

Now that you have the grates, go buy the best brush ever to clean them. High heat plastic Bristles. Dip it in a bowl of water and brush. Everything comes off easily and clean for the next round.

I'd love a great product to clean my GrillGrates, but man, $33 bucks for a brush? Not sure I can mentally handle that.

It’s really heavy duty. They developed it for a restaurant chain and it’s built to last. Mine is a year old and is in grate shape. I have grill grates on my Weber and my PK so it sees a lot of use.

Mine's supposed to be delivered tomorrow.
My experience with FedEx has been less than stellar, so I'm not holding my breath.

I'm thinking some nice pork chops so the grill marks show up nicely against the white meat.

I spent part of my lunch watching utubes reviewing the grates. Everybody seems to like them!

I didn't but should have looked to see if they had any for the PBC. I have grill grates for my PK grills. I like them but don't use them all of the time.

so what did you figure out? may as well shorten the curve for the rest of us


here is my inaugural run.

the set I bought is for the kettle but fits on my pellet cooker too. 5 inches of snow yesterday so instead of digging out the weber I did the first run on the pit boss.

I had to turn them sideways to fit but it was a good one. the ir thermometer showed fairly even temps on the entire surface of the grill grates. I left the sear plate closed and started at 350F. by the end of the cook I had the grill cranked all the way up to the max of 500F and things were fine. I picked up some discounted pork chops, a tuna steak and a lbs of raw shrimp for the trial run.

definitely ran best at full temp. I think I'll prefer to use the flat side on most cooks, it will be fun to see.


didn't really get any pics as I was focused on figuring these out. just a couple of mug shot quality photos

Sorry. I love a new toy as much as anybody. But what is the point of GG's? I use my gasser occasionally when doing steaks because it can reach 700 degrees easily. Sear marks aren't an issue. Any other reason? They sound hard to clean and are expensive. Not trying to be a jerk. I just don't get it...........

So you have to keep the sear plate closed to not damage the grill grates? I currently use those mesh ones for grilling on my Tailgater.

I was wondering this myself.

I dont think that is necessarily to leave closed but am not sure yet. grill grates do have a max temp of 1200. the manual states be careful after 800 lid temp. the pit boss probably can't get that hot even with the searzone open. I will say it did a good job turning the pellet cooker into a capable searer without it open so for cookers without that option it's a game changer.

ribeye are on sale so round 2 will be today

edit: just received an email reply from grill grates. they said I should be able to have at it with searzone open with no risk of damage

It renders an amazing bark.

Of course, it's the cook, not the cooker; the great griller, not the grill grates!
