Primo Porcelain Cooking Grate

This grate is designed specifically for large round ceramic grills and measures 19.5 inches in diameter. Before purchasing, measure your current cooking surface to ensure it matches these dimensions, as fitment can vary between different ceramic grill brands.

The porcelain coating creates a smooth, non-stick surface that is particularly helpful for delicate foods like fish or vegetables that might otherwise tear on a standard stainless steel grate. It also helps prevent food residue from building up, making cleanup significantly easier after your cook.

While the coating is durable and rust-resistant, you should avoid using metal scrapers or harsh abrasive brushes, which can chip or scratch the finish. Use a nylon or brass brush and warm, soapy water to keep the surface in good condition.

It depends on your priorities. While cast iron is excellent for heat retention and searing, this porcelain-coated steel grate offers superior non-stick properties and is generally easier to clean and maintain since it resists rust without needing to be seasoned.

Yes, the steel construction is designed to withstand the high temperatures typical of charcoal grilling. However, like all porcelain-coated surfaces, it is best to avoid extreme thermal shock—such as plunging a hot grate into cold water—to prevent the coating from cracking.
