Know before you buy

No, this plate is made of raw cast iron and does not feature a non-stick coating. To prevent sticking, ensure the plate is properly seasoned and preheated before adding your meat.
No, this plate is not dishwasher safe. It should be cleaned by hand using warm water and a stiff brush, then dried thoroughly and lightly oiled to prevent rust.
Cast iron offers superior heat retention compared to standard grill grates, allowing you to achieve a consistent, high-heat sear. This process helps caramelize the surface of the meat, locking in juices and flavor for a restaurant-quality finish.
No, this model does not include handles. Because it is designed for high-heat cooking, you will need to use heat-resistant gloves or a grill tool to safely move or remove the plate once it is hot.
