The cooking grates available for each particular model of Weber grill varies and many people often ask “Which is the best type of cooking grate?”

The answer to that depends on what you are looking for from your cooking grate. Weber makes three varieties of cooking grates. Stainless steel, porcelain enameled cast-iron & porcelain enameled steel.

All three varieties are easy to clean, durable, and will produce great sear marks.
