Green Egg Style / Kamado Style Griddle With Grill Grate Combination Insert by Arteflame Outdoor Grills

Grill Steakhouse Restaurant Quality food at home with an Arteflame Insert.

Unlock the potential of your Egg and grill steakhouse quality meals at home with the addition of an Arteflame insert.  Once you swap your old grate out for the Arteflame griddle insert you are on your way to grilling your food the same way they do at top steakhouse restaurants.  Using your Egg, you can get the center grill grate over 1,000F for the perfect steakhouse sear.

The griddle gives the perfect sear while not overcooking the inside of your steak. While the steak is sizzling in it's own juices, it naturally picks up the great smokey flavor from the live fire. The juices from traditional grill grates drip down into the fire along with the flavor. Live wood fire seasons the meat naturally, with a taste you cannot achieve any other way. Most importantly, the griddle gets super hot, which is the key to sealing in great taste and flavor.  Nothing will ever compare to this formula. That is why the top restaurant steakhouse steaks taste so great.

These three key factors are crucial towards getting you the steakhouse quality food you can now grill in your own backyard.  The cooktop is perfect for grilling vegetables, poultry or even a completer breakfast with bacon and eggs!

The Arteflame Big Green Egg inserts include three 3" risers in the 18" and 24” sizes. These risers clip onto the outer edge of the insert and raise it so that the plancha sits just below the felt gasket of your egg.  This makes it very convenient to grill without having to reach into the grill. The Arteflame insert for the Kamado versions have locating holes so they can be used on top of the flexible cooking rack.

Carbon Steel vs Cast Iron

Carbon Steel and Cast Iron are very similar.  This is why both are very good for cooking and grilling.  The main difference is that Carbon Steel contains about 1% Carbon while Cast Iron contains 2% - 3% Carbon.  This difference might not sound like much but the carbon effects the grain structure of the metal.

When Cast Iron is heated unevenly, the heat differential causes stress in the metal as the thermal expansion is uneven.  When this stress encounters a pocket of carbon, Cast Iron cracks.  This is also why Cast Iron often breaks when it is dropped.  The area of high carbon is extremely brittle and can’t stand the shock.

In a grill, the heat is never uniform.  This makes cast Iron an especially poor choice for grill inserts.  For this reason, all Arteflame cooktops, inserts, griddles and Burger Pucks are made of only Carbon Steel.
