Looking for Grate FAQ

[Jim W.]

I was hoping to find a FAQ on Weber (plus aftermarket?) round cooking and charcoal grates:

Primarily diameter of each model, but material, coating, comments would be handy.

Anybody know of one? If so it would be a great sticky.

Wouldn't be too hard to put together from the info on Webers site for accessories.

Sounds like a project for you, Jim! If you make it, we can make it a sticky topic.

Interesting, they don't really say much about coating anymore. They used to say "triple nickel-plated steel grates" and now they just say "plated steel grates". And gauge of material seems a bit less than a few years ago.

I guess I'll just have to do that- maybe a trip to the big BBQ store so I can measure the grates. Weber's web site only refers to the nominal size of the kettle, not the grate sizes.

indeed.....
Actual grate sizes would be great information. (no pun intended)
