GRISUN 19.5-inch Cast Iron Round Grill Grate for Akorn & Pit Boss K24 — Enameled with Removable 7.2-inch Center

GRISUN 19.5-inch enameled cast iron round grill grate replaces or upgrades the factory grate for Akorn Kamado, Pit Boss K24 and many 20-inch kettle-style grills to deliver superior heat retention and crisp searing.

Swapping to a heavy cast-iron grate changes how your kettle or kamado cooks: it holds heat longer, boosts searing capability and creates clear grill marks while the porcelain enamel finish reduces sticking and simplifies cleanup. This 19.5" GRISUN grate is designed to fit most 20-inch inner diameter charcoal and ceramic grills — including Akorn Kamado Kooker, Pit Boss K24 and several Char-Griller and Louisiana Grills models — and includes a removable 7.2" center insert so you can add charcoal or install a warming rack without removing the entire grate.

How does this grate improve searing and heat retention?

The thick cast iron construction soaks up and holds heat much better than thin steel grates, producing consistent contact searing across the cooking surface. The enamel coating prevents excessive sticking while still allowing the iron to transfer intense heat for caramelization and grill marks.

• 19.5" diameter fits most 20" inner grill bowls for even heat coverage
• Heavy cast iron stores heat for steadier temperatures
• Porcelain enamel reduces sticking and simplifies cleaning
• Sturdy rods create defined sear lines on meats and vegetables

Can I manage charcoal or add a warming rack without lifting the whole grate?

Yes — the grate features a 7.2" removable center insert with a 1" hole that lets you add charcoal or insert a compatible warming rack without removing the entire cooking surface. That design speeds mid-cook fuel adjustments and provides a dedicated mounting point for additional accessories.

• 7.2" center insert lifts out for charcoal access
• 1" center hole fits standard warming-rack supports
• Remove insert to stoke coals or reposition briquettes quickly
• Keeps main grate stable while you maintain heat

Is the porcelain enamel cast iron easy to clean and maintain?

The smooth porcelain enamel surface resists food sticking and wipes clean with hot soapy water or a soft brush, so routine maintenance is straightforward. Avoid harsh scrapers that could chip the enamel; periodic seasoning of exposed cast-iron edges helps protect the metal where the enamel may be thin.

• Wipe with hot, soapy water or brush lightly after use
• Avoid abrasive metal tools that can damage the enamel
• Dry thoroughly to prevent rust on any uncoated edges
• Optional light seasoning on exposed areas for added protection

Will this GRISUN grate fit my grill model?

The GRISUN 19.5" round grate is sized for most grills with a roughly 20" inner diameter. It was designed specifically to be compatible with Akorn Kamado, Pit Boss K24, and many Char-Griller and Louisiana Grills K24 models, but checking your grill's inner bowl diameter ensures a proper fit.

• Nominal diameter: 19.5 inches for 20" inner bowls
• Compatible with Akorn Kamado Kooker and Pit Boss K24
• Also fits Char-Griller and Louisiana Grills K24-style kettles
• Measure inner cooking bowl to confirm fit before purchase

Who is this for: The GRISUN 19.5" cast iron grate is aimed at grillers who want professional-quality searing, improved heat stability and an upgrade over thin factory grates. It’s a practical choice for backyard barbecue enthusiasts using Akorn Kamado, Pit Boss K24, and other 20" kettle-style grills who value durability, easier cleanup and the option to tend charcoal or add a warming rack without removing the entire cooking surface.
