SmokeWare Stainless Steel Grate for Medium Big Green Egg — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the SmokeWare stainless steel grate for the Medium Big Green Egg?
This is a heavy-duty replacement cooking grate made of 304 stainless steel, specifically sized to fit the Medium Big Green Egg ceramic cookers. It offers durability and corrosion resistance.
How does this grate compare to the original cast iron grate?
Stainless steel resists rust better than cast iron and is easier to clean. While cast grates retain heat better, the SmokeWare grate offers a lighter weight option and greater longevity in many environments. Its design includes extra cross-support bars for strength.
What are its dimensions and fitment details?
The grate matches the standard Medium Big Green Egg’s inner diameter and sits exactly where the factory grate would. Confirm your grill is a Medium model before ordering to ensure a proper fit.
Can it be used with double-level setups or stackers?
Yes — this grate is compatible with SmokeWare’s Stacker systems and other compatible half-moon and ring accessory setups, enabling extra cooking levels.
How do I install and maintain it?
Just lift out the original grate and place this one into the same support ledges. To maintain, brush it after use, periodically clean with stainless steel cleaner, and avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the finish.
