What is a weather-proof steel grill

When using a weathering steel grill for the first time, it is important to reduce the heat in the first 25 minutes before increasing the fire source. The lower side of the heavier pan gets significantly hotter than the upper side. Because of this temperature difference, the board is hollow (slightly recessed). After the first use, the board has been "fixed" and this procedure is no longer required. After one or two uses, the weathering steel grill reached the best working condition. When grilling, burn the oil into the dish, and after the oil "burns in" it will be easier to cook on the baking sheet, which will also prevent rust on the baking sheet when not in use. It is best to use a vegetable oil with a high burn rate, such as sunflower oil.

Maintenance, cleaning and installation

Weathering steel grills are not necessary to clean. Cooking oil and food scraps can be slid into the fire with a shovel after use. If desired, clean the baking sheet with a damp cloth before use. Weathering steel grills can withstand wind and rain without further maintenance. With adjustable heavy-duty legs, weather-resistant steel grills can be stably placed on almost any surface.

Temperature

After 25 to 30 minutes of burning, the inner edge of the baking pan reaches 275 to 300 ° C. When the fire is on, you can start by lubricating the dish. The outer edge is slightly cooler, so you can switch between baking and keeping warm. When heating the baking pan, it will pull out the crack (slightly concave) and the excess oil and fat will automatically go into the fire. When the plate cools down, it can be straightened again.
