That gives the X-Large a closed surface for eggs, mushrooms, diced potatoes, shrimp and burgers, none of which behave well on open bars. Grooved side, it is a searing surface: raised ribs concentrate heat into lines across the food and the channels between them carry rendered fat away, so the meat marks rather than sits and simmers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCast iron is chosen for this kind of tool for a reason you can feel. Put a cold steak on a thin metal surface and the surface temperature falls immediately; put the same steak on cast iron and it barely moves, because the material is holding far more heat than the meat can pull out of it in the first few seconds.

Same plate, two very different results, and no second purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCast iron is doing something specific here. It stores a lot of heat for its size and gives it back slowly, so when cold food lands on it the surface does not lose its temperature the way a thin sheet of metal does.

A standard grate spreads heat thinly across a lot of open space, and when a cold steak lands on it the bars give up their temperature almost instantly. Cast iron bars carry far more stored heat per inch of contact, so they stay hot under the meat and keep driving heat into it.

Cast iron holds a great deal of heat relative to its size and releases it slowly, so the bars do not cool off the instant something cold lands on them.
