I have a $50 credit to Big Poppa Smokers for winning the babyback throwdown. I have rubs and sauces literally spilling out of every cabinet, so I was looking for something else to buy.
Grillgrates are something I've always been a little skeptical about...making pretty little lines on my food doesnt interest me, I prefer a whole surface sear like I can get from cast iron grates on my Primo XL or a griddle. But flipping them over and using the flat side sounds interesting, as does the flare up prevention aspect. So, I'm willing to give them a shot...I was skeptical about the Vortex for a long time and now I love it so I'm willing to admit I may be wrong on Grillgrates.
There are two options on BPS - a single 10x13" grate with spatula for $50, which would basically be no cost to me, or a larger roundish setup intended for kettles and drums, roughly 20x16.5". That one would run $130 with spatula, so I'd be coming out of pocket some for that one. For those of you that use Grillgrates, would the single 10x13" grate be sufficient for most purposes, or would I be better off just biting the bullet and going with the bigger one? I would be using either one on a Weber kettle and possibly my Primo XL sometimes.
