Optional Raw Cast Iron Grate
(FEAUG1)
The grill comes standard with a low maintenance Porcelain
Coated Cast Iron Grate. Nevertheless if you purchased the
optional raw cast iron grill grate that is naturally porous and
ideal for seasoning and aging, please follow the additional
steps below to begin seasoning your grill grate before use. A
well-seasoned grate will resist rust and create a virtually
nonstick surface for cooking over time, preferred by most
experienced chefs.
1. Remove the grate from packing materials.
2. Brush vegetable oil lightly over cast iron pieces to coat
the entire surface.
3. Heat the grate to approximately 250 degrees Fahrenheit
(120 degrees Celsius) on low over your grill for
approximately an hour.
4. Wipe the grate well, and let it cool completely before
use.
5. To preserve this natural, protective coating, DO NOT
USE SOAP when cleaning a seasoned grate. Instead,
scrub the grate with a mixture of salt and vegetable oil,
rinse with hot water, and dry completely over low heat
before storing.
Cast Iron Grate Preheating
It is important to preheat your grill surface prior to cooking to
ensure an overall hot surface with even temperature. As the
grates are made of cast iron, they take some time to heat but
retain that heat extremely well and provide an excellent
cooking surface for grilling.
1. Turn the burner on high.
2. Heat on high for approximately 5-10 minutes. Adjust to
desired temperature and begin cooking.
Cast Iron Grate Cleaning After Grilling
Cleaning Grill Grates:
1. Turn the burner on high for approximately 10-20 minutes
to burn away any food debris and/or grease.
2. Let grill cool completely.
3. Brush grates with wire brush to remove any remaining
debris. If necessary, scrub the grate with a mixture of
salt and vegetable oil, rinse with hot water, and dry
completely over low heat before storing
