Know before you buy
A basting dome traps heat and steam, which helps cook thicker cuts of meat more evenly and significantly speeds up the melting process for cheese on burgers or sandwiches.
While designed as a genuine Weber accessory, the dome is compatible with most standard outdoor griddles provided the cooking surface area is large enough to accommodate its diameter.
The durable silver finish is easy to maintain. You can clean it with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge to remove grease and food residue.
Yes, the handle can become hot during use because it is exposed to the trapped heat and steam. It is recommended to use heat-resistant grill gloves or mitts when lifting the dome.
Absolutely. By adding a small amount of water or broth to the griddle surface and covering the vegetables with the dome, you can effectively steam them to your desired tenderness.
