This is the cast iron searing grate for the Primo Oval Large, and it is a specialist rather than a general-purpose grate. Its job is the first few minutes of a steak, a chop or a thick burger, when the surface either colours properly or it does not.
What decides that is how much heat is available at the exact point where meat touches metal. 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. Thin grate bars do, and the moment they drop below searing temperature the meat starts releasing moisture and stewing in it. The heavier grate simply keeps the contact points hot long enough to finish the job.
This grate belongs on the Primo Oval Large ceramic charcoal grill. The Primo cast iron griddle for the Oval Large is the flat-surface counterpart, and the Primo Extension Rack for Oval Large gives you a second tier to hold seared food while the next batch goes down.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this searing grate fit my Primo Oval Large?
Yes. This is the Oval Large version and the Large is the grill it belongs in. Primo makes the same grate for the other Oval sizes, so if you have more than one grill you will need the one named for each. There is no universal Primo searing grate.
Why does cast iron sear better than a standard grate?
Because of what happens in the first few seconds. Cast iron stores a lot of heat and gives it up slowly, so the bars stay hot underneath cold meat. Lighter grate bars lose temperature immediately at that contact point, and once they are below searing heat the meat releases moisture and starts to steam.
Is this the same thing as the cast iron griddle for the Oval Large?
No. The cast iron griddle is a plate with a flat face and a grooved face, useful for eggs, vegetables and burgers. This is a searing grate: bars only, no solid surface, built purely for putting a hard crust on meat.
Can I have the searing grate and a griddle on the grill together?
Not at the same level. Both need to sit over the fire, so on a single tier it is one or the other. The workable pattern is to sear first while the fire is hottest, lift the grate off with gloves, and put the griddle down for whatever comes next.
How long should it heat before the steaks go on?
Give it a good while over a settled fire. The benefit of cast iron comes entirely from heat it has already absorbed, and absorbing heat takes time. Put it on when you light or shortly after, and use the wait to bring the meat out and dry the surface, which matters as much as the grate does.
Let customers speak for us
I absolutely love my Coyote gas grill! The quality is excellent, it looks beautiful, and I’m very happy with my purchase.
I also want to give a special thank you to Ryan at Northwoods Grills. He was incredibly helpful from the very beginning. Before my grill even arrived, he took the time to help me with measurements and answered all of my questions to make sure everything would fit properly. He was always very attentive, patient, friendly, and easy to communicate with. His customer service really made a difference and made the whole experience so much easier for me.
It’s not often that you receive this level of personal attention and customer service. I truly appreciate all of Ryan’s help and would absolutely recommend Northwoods Grills. Great product and outstanding customer service!
Fabiane Da Silva
Best pricing available for the product (checked all other on line retailers), and Ryan provided excellent responsiveness during the sales process. Loved dealing directly with the owner vs a sales person.
Delivery was completed within a week of the order and Ryan stayed in touch with consistent follow-up to ensure the products met my expectations.
Will recommend to friends / others looking for a high-end built in grill and matching cabinets.

Don’t know how i ever cooked without this before. Love the char this locks in the meat every time. May add a second one to the other end of the grill.

I was caught in a bind with a DIFFERENT provider, and Ryan was able to get me exactly what I needed, he reached out to the manufacturer for me to confirm specs and had my shipment mailed out same day. If you’re in the market for any outdoor kitchen needs, look no further than Northwoods!
