Well since i got my Kamado i have gotten sucked into a few accessories for my baby. I think i have finished buying them now (and the wife is pleased). The list includes amongst other things:
thermapen
chef alarm
Looftlighter
AND FINALLY Grillgrates. I bought them thru a vendor here. I got the 18" model with the rounded corners (a bit exy at $100+ delivered), they can sit down on the fire ring on my 24" Big Joe and i can't tell you how impressed i am with them and heres why?
1....they make a good heat deflector (when i didnt have 1)
2....they are really well finished and deliver a superb char
3....They totally control flareups
4....they are so versatile, they come in 3 sections so u can use just 1 section for reverse sear for example
5.....they are really light...i never imagined this when i bought them, but i take them hiking with me for bush bbqs. i have grilled chicken wings in the bush over an open log fire, the food doesnt get easily burned on open flame (although can get a bit sooty). I was the toast of the group i can tell u.
6.....they cool down super quick...i can get them in my back pack 10mins after cooking on them.
7...nothing sticks to them. The patina that develops seems to be super resilient (compared to cast iron stuff i have)
I just love them.
These things can prob turn the cheapest gasser into something half decent....i have found cheap gassers to be very hit and miss with regards to consistent heat across the grill...which is often ironed out in the more expensive models like the Turbos etc......well stick these on an Aldi special and duel with the bigboys
BTW i should mention im not affliated in anyway to them or their suppliers....just a happy camper (literally)
GrillGrates are just awesome. Prob the best accessory

I use them in the kamado, in the Weber Q and the pellet grill. I agree, they are a great bit of kit. I'm tossing up trying them in the wood fired pizza oven. I'm thinking how would a butterfly chicken go.

They do remind me of some sheeting I have seen on a minesite somewhere or other
