Griddle Insert for Gas, Electric or Charcoal Grills by Arteflame Outdoor Grills

Fulfilled by our friends at Arteflame Outdoor Grills

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.

There are many grills and many different grill grate sizes.  As these often change, make sure you order the correct size for your grill.  The simplest way of making sure you get the right size is by measuring the grill grate that came with your grill.  Then simply select the corresponding size from the drop down list.  Many people also buy the size they like best and just lay it on top of the existing grill grates.

Note: When the insert arrives, the cooktop will be silver (unseasoned). It will develop the dark black color shown in the images once it's been used several times.
