Benefits of a Cast Iron BBQ Grate

Because this grill grate is made of cast iron, it can withstand higher temperatures than a regular BBQ grate. It retains heat longer and more effectively, meaning the temperature drops less when you place meat on it. This improves grilling and searing, resulting in perfect grill marks and even tastier meat. Additionally, a cast iron grill grate can support heavier weights better than a regular grate.
