Consequences of Using Poor Quality Grates in Commercial Kitchens

TLDR

• Yet many kitchen managers overlook grates when evaluating equipment, focusing instead on burner output or overall grill size.
• That’s a costly mistake, because the material and thickness of your grates directly affect cooking performance, food quality, and how often you’ll need to replace equipment.
• Stainless steel grates tend to hold up well in humid environments or kitchens near coastal areas where rust is a constant concern.
