Weber Griddle Warming Rack & Resting Tray for 36" Slate Griddle — Stainless Steel, 200+ sq in, 2-Height Adjustable

The Weber Griddle Warming Rack & Resting Tray for 36" Slate griddles is a stainless steel add‑on that creates over 200 sq. in. of heated holding space and two adjustable heights for toasting or keeping food warm.

If you already own a 36" Weber Slate griddle and need more flexible cooking capacity, this warming rack & resting tray attaches to the back of the cooktop without tools and gives you a dedicated zone for warming, finishing, or staging plates while you cook. Built from stainless steel, it’s sized to hold full trays and features raised edges and narrow slits that balance accessibility with safety. Whether you’re managing a breakfast rush or finishing steak and veggies, this accessory helps you keep food at service temperature without crowding the main griddle surface.

How does the rack let me toast and keep food warm at different heights?

The adjustable design offers two distinct height settings so you can change how much heat reaches the food. Lower the rack to deliver more direct heat for toasting buns or bagels; raise it to create gentler, holding heat that won’t overcook finished items. Switching heights is tool‑free and immediate.

• Two preset height positions for quick changes.
• Lower position: ideal for browning bread and melting cheese.
• Raised position: for gentle warming and holding plates.
• Tool‑free adjustment lets you adapt during service.

Will it keep smaller or loose foods from falling through?

The tray has narrow slits that allow heat flow while preventing most small items from sliding through, and raised edges help contain food during handling. The design is suitable for scrambled eggs, fried rice, chopped toppings and other items you want to keep accessible but secure.

• Narrow slits reduce the chance of small pieces falling through.
• Raised perimeter edges keep pans and loose foods in place.
• Large surface accepts full food trays for staging or holding.
• Works without interfering with the griddle’s cooking area.

How does installation and maintenance work for this accessory?

Installation is quick and requires no tools: the rack mounts to the back of the 36" Slate griddle and can be removed just as easily for cleaning or storage. Because it’s stainless steel, it resists corrosion and wipes clean, though Weber recommends hand washing to preserve the finish and function over time.

• Tool‑free attachment to the griddle’s rear lip for easy setup.
• Detaches quickly for cleaning or transport.
• Stainless steel construction for longevity and rust resistance.
• Hand wash only to maintain finish and fit.

What cooking situations does this add-on expand for my 36" griddle?

• Good for staging finished dishes, buns, and sides.
