Skyflame Charkettle Hinged Cooking Grate for 22.5" Weber-Style Kettles — Double-Side Hinge, Removable Center Ring

If you own a Weber Original Kettle, Master-Touch, One-Touch, Performer or a compatible 22.5-inch charcoal grill, this Skyflame grate upgrades your setup with a two-sided hinge, removable center ring and robust plated-steel construction. It gives you the freedom to add briquettes without lifting the whole grate, switch in round cookware like a wok or griddle, and get better searing while keeping cleanup simple.

How does the double-side hinged design simplify charcoal management?

The two hinges on opposite sides allow each half of the grate to open independently so you can reach the fire quickly without removing the entire cooking surface. This reduces heat loss and keeps your food in place while you feed the fire or adjust coals.

• Open one or both sides to add briquettes or wood chunks mid-cook
• Keep food stationary while topping up coals
• Minimizes smoke and temperature drop compared with removing full grates

What cooking options does the removable inner grate provide?

The central removable ring is sized to accept round cookware and specialty inserts, turning your kettle into a multi-function cook station. Swap the inner grate for a wok, griddle, pizza stone or poultry roaster to broaden your recipes without extra hardware.

• Inner ring diameter 11.8" for common round inserts and pans
• Quick-release for clean swaps during service
• Use simultaneous searing and indirect cooking by pairing inserts

Will this grate withstand regular grilling and when is cleaning needed?

Made from plated steel, the Skyflame grate balances strength and easy maintenance. The smooth, plated surface resists stubborn buildup and wipes clean with warm, soapy water after cool-down, extending the life of the grate with minimal care.

• Durable plated-steel construction resists rust and wear
• Smooth surface simplifies removal of grease and residue
• Washable with soapy water; allow to cool before cleaning

How does this grate improve searing and handling during grilling?

The grate’s solid-bar pattern and round shape focus heat where you need it for crisp sear marks while preserving the smoky flavor of grilled meats. Two integrated handles let you lift and reposition the grate safely, even during active cooks.

• Thicker bars deliver more consistent sear and grill marks
• Dual handles provide a secure grip for lifting and repositioning
• Designed to fit typical Weber 22.5" kettles for compatibility

Who is this for: The Skyflame Charkettle Double-Side Hinged Cooking Grate is built for backyard grillers who want a more flexible Weber-style kettle—home cooks who add coals mid-cook, experiment with specialty inserts, or want an easier-to-clean, durable replacement grate. It's also a practical upgrade for anyone looking to get better searing performance and safer handling without replacing their entire kettle.
