Half cast iron grill

What are the advantages of cast iron for cooking on a kamado barbecue? It allows for searing at very high temperatures: it caramelizes the meat while retaining the cooking juices to keep it tender and juicy. You'll achieve perfect searing of your cuts of meat while sealing in the flavor. The outside is crispy, the inside juicy! Durable and robust material with excellent heat retention. Easy to clean.

A cast iron half-moon grill grate is an excellent tool for achieving perfect grill marks, enhancing the appearance, texture, and flavor of your meats. Grill Marks: The grooves in the griddle create the famous grill marks on meat, which not only add an appetizing visual appeal but also allow for more even cooking. The marks form where the intense heat of the griddle makes contact with the meat, resulting in distinct, defined lines. Caramelization and Flavor: These marks are also an excellent way to concentrate heat in specific areas, promoting the caramelization of the meat's natural juices. This intensifies flavors and creates a delicious crust while keeping the inside of the meat juicy. Healthier Cooking: The grooved design allows excess fat to drain away, reducing the amount of fat that remains in contact with the meat. This can result in lighter, less fatty meat, and healthier cooking.

High temperature: For beautiful grill marks, it's essential that the grill is very hot before placing the meat on it. This allows for a quick crust formation and crisp, clean sear marks. Don't move the meat immediately: Once the meat is on the grill, avoid moving it for a few minutes. This allows the grill marks to form and the crust to solidify. Use a little oil: If the meat isn't very fatty, it can be helpful to lightly brush the cooking surface with oil to prevent sticking and make it easier to create crisp grill marks.
