grill grate

Barbecue cooking surface

A grill grate is the metal cooking surface of a barbecue or grill—the grid of bars on which food sits over the heat source.

Grates are typically made of cast iron, stainless steel, or porcelain-coated metal.

The steaks left perfect char marks from the grill grate.

Cleaning the grate is the perpetual chore of outdoor cooking.
