BBQration 17" Cast Iron Grill Grates Replacement for Nexgrill, 2-Piece Set — Matte Finish, Heavy-Duty Heat Retention

These are two 17" matte cast iron replacement cooking grates designed to restore even heat and classic sear marks on compatible Nexgrill, Kenmore, Uniflame and similar gas grills.

When a worn or warped grate ruins cook times and sear quality, swapping in a matching cast-iron replacement brings your grill back to reliable performance. The BBQration 17" cast iron set includes two interlocking pieces (each 17" x 13 1/4") that combine to a 17" x 26 1/2" cooking surface, made to fit many Nexgrill models (including 720-0830H, 720-0888 series and more) as well as select Kenmore, Uniflame, Char-Broil and Uberhaus grills. These grates are matte-finished for easier seasoning and improved food release once properly oiled and preheated.

How do these replacement grates improve grilling performance?

Cast iron stores and radiates heat more evenly than thin stamped steel, so foods develop better sear lines and consistent doneness across the cooking surface. The dense metal also helps stabilize temperature when you open the lid, reducing cold spots and flare-ups when used correctly.

• Thick cast iron body for superior heat retention and consistent searing.
• Matte finish favors seasoning and forms a natural non-stick surface over time.
• Durable construction resists warping under normal grill temperatures.

Will these grates fit my Nexgrill, Kenmore, or Uniflame model?

These grates are listed to fit a wide range of Nexgrill part numbers (for example 720-0830H, 720-0888N, 720-0783E and related models) and many Kenmore and Uniflame models. Measure your existing grate to confirm dimensions: each piece is 17" x 13 1/4" and the combined span is 17" x 26 1/2".

• Designed for Nexgrill 4- and 5-burner series (select part numbers included).
• Compatible with several Kenmore and Uniflame model codes—check your manual.
• Simple dimension check prevents fitment issues before ordering.

How should I care for and season these cast iron grates?

Cleaning and seasoning cast iron keeps food from sticking and prolongs grate life. After initial scrubbing and drying, apply a thin layer of high-smoke-point oil and heat the grates on the grill to build a protective polymerized coating.

• Clean with a grill brush after each use; avoid soap that removes seasoning.
• Dry thoroughly, then rub with a thin coat of vegetable or flaxseed oil.
• Heat on the grill for 20–30 minutes to set the first seasoning layer.

What should I expect when installing these replacement parts?

Installation is usually straightforward: remove the old grate, confirm the 17" width clearance, and seat each 17" x 13 1/4" piece so they meet across the center. No tools are typically required, but confirm grill-specific mounting features before swapping parts.

• Two-piece set installs by laying each half into the factory grate supports.
• Check grill brackets and burner alignment for unobstructed placement.
• Re-season after installation for best immediate non-stick performance.

Who is this for: Grill owners who want to revive performance and searing quality on mid-size Nexgrill, Kenmore, Uniflame or compatible grills. This set suits backyard cooks who prefer the heat retention and classic sear of cast iron and who are comfortable maintaining cast-iron grates (regular seasoning and cleaning). If your existing 17" grate is cracked, warped or stripped of seasoning, the BBQration 2-pack offers a cost-effective, heavy-duty replacement to get your grill back to producing consistent results.
