Maximize Flavors with Kamado Joe Cooking Surfaces

Kamado Joe’s Divide & Conquer flexible cooking system allows you to customize your cooking experience. The innovative half-moon grates come in cast iron, stainless steel, and even soapstone to tailor your cooking surfaces to your ingredients. Here's a breakdown of how each option will help to maximize the flavor for every cook:

Stainless Steel Grate

Stainless steel is the traditional choice for grill grates because they conduct heat well. The rods of the grate are perfect for direct heat grilling because they allow more radiant heat to reach your food. The stainless steel grates come standard with the Divide & Conquer flexible cooking system.

Cast Iron Grate

Upgrade to the cast iron grate and achieve those iconic grill marks that sear meats and seal in their flavor. Cast iron distributes heat evenly and offers better heat retention than steel. Cast iron also tends to be sturdier and foods stick less than traditional stainless steel grates.

Cast Iron Reversible Griddle

The cast iron griddle is ribbed on one side and smooth on the other for greater versatility. This cast iron griddle is ideal for searing ingredients with a crust, sautéing or even grilling a sandwich or panini. The increased heat retention and even heat distribution allow for a better sear and beautiful grill marks to impress your friends and family. Grilled brunch anyone? Fix your eggs, pancakes french toast on the flat side, then flip to the ribbed side to finish the bacon and sausage.

Soapstone

The tradition of cooking on stone can be traced across the globe from North & South America, to Europe & Asia, dating all the way back to the Ancient Egyptians and Vikings. The thick stone surface reduces flare-ups while enhancing the flavor of meats as they cook in their own juices. The soapstone slab is both bacteria and stain resistant.

Grill Expander

Avoid overcrowding the grill when entertaining with the stainless steel expander. The expander doubles the grilling space by stacking directly above the grill grate. Best of all, you can run it through the dishwasher for effortless clean-up.
