Cast Iron Grate for a mini?

Vitaman · August 2012

Hi all-I've looked on google and tried the search function on this site but have had no luck...has anyone found a cast iron cooking grate for their mini?

I found a 10.5 inch cast iron floor grate on Amazon, but the description says it's painted, so I assume I don't want that.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

How about this (though it's quite thick, at 3/4")?

Thanks but I saw in the description it's "painted". I don't see how a painted item would work in an egg.

Thoughts?

Get it to 800 degrees or so for an hour, I doubt it will be painted for long. :D

If you are handy, and have some tools, I remember seeing pics of someone who cut a circle out of a rectangular cast iron grid.

FYI- Big Green Egg now makes a cast iron grate for the Mini Egg. New item and we have yet to get them in...but they are on the way. Item #10CI

Thanks Smitty-I just called The Mothership and they confirmed they do now stock a CI grate for the mini.

Once again, this forum has been awesome...thanks!!!
