Nickel-Plated Hinged Cooking Grate Is A Must-Have Grill Addition

Hinged Cooking Grate
Weber 7436 Replacement Hinged Cooking Grate

Hinged grill grates are ideal for adding charcoal and wood without removing the grate completely.

An easy upgrade to make to a Weber Kettle is replacing the standard grate with a flip side grate.

This is a great feature to have for long cooks which may require adding charcoal or wood during the cook. It is also a perfect companion for the Slow 'N Sear reviewed here. This model fits the 22 1/2 inch kettle and is made of heavy nickel-plated steel.
