SnS EasySpin Grill Grate (22″) — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the SnS EasySpin Grill Grate?
The SnS EasySpin Grill Grate is a 304 stainless steel rotating cooking grate designed for 22″ kettle grills. It lets you manually spin the grate to reposition food over hotter or cooler zones without lifting it.
What are the key features and specifications?
• Hinged / rotating design for easy access to charcoal and repositioning.
• Made from 304 stainless steel for corrosion resistance and durability.
• The grate covers the water reservoir while allowing full access to the charcoal basket, so you can refill fuel without exposing coals to moisture.
• Handles welded to the top ring for easier spinning (Cold Grate / “spin the grate” technique).
• Additional rails near the handles add extra cooking area beyond stock grates.
• Fits most 22″ kettle grills. The actual diameter is about 21½″.
How do I install and use it?
1. Remove your existing grate (or open the kettle lid) to gain access.
2. Place the EasySpin grate onto the kettle’s grate rests, ensuring it sits level and spins freely.
3. Preheat gradually to avoid thermal shock.
4. Use the spinning action to move food between indirect and direct heat zones without lifting.
5. Use the hinged opening to add fuel (charcoal or wood) mid-cook without disturbing food.
6. Ensure the dome closes properly and allows for free rotation.
What are the advantages and limitations?
Advantages:
• Greater control over cooking zones without moving food manually.
• Easier to add fuel mid-cook without exposing food to ash or rain.

• Expanded cooking surface with additional rails.
Limitations / cautions:
• Ensure no objects or accessories obstruct rotation.
• Welds or rotating parts may loosen over time with heavy use.
• Slightly heavier than standard grates—confirm your grill supports are sturdy.
• Requires occasional cleaning and maintenance to keep movement smooth and performance optimal.
