I normally do not write reviews so that should tell you something from the start. I bought these to replace the grates in a brand new grill. Best grilling move I’ve ever made. I keep part of my grill smooth side up and the rest as a standard grill. The concept behind these things make perfect sense. They get hot really fast and adjust to reduced heat just as fast. That means less time warming up and making adjustments if the grill gets too hot. They sear better than my searing station which really locks in the juices. I seasoned mine and haven’t had a thing even close to sticking. There is very little clean up.. Because… the meat is seared from the start and nothing sticks. Very little ends up in or on the grill. The aluminum radiates heat better than my inferred grill I just replaced. That means cooking times are reduced. All that adds up to perfect grilling every time, with less prep, less clean up, less time on the grill which adds up to more gas efficiency. As a bonus, I have blackened striped bass rght on the smooth side several times. It’s better than cast iron and no mess. Duayne- we never get tired of hearing this! GrillGrate, Eat Well!
