Small Food, Big EGG — Nothing Falls Through.
The Perforated Half Grid features non-stick aluminum construction with small holes that let smoke and heat through while keeping small foods from falling into the fire. Perfect for vegetables, shrimp, and anything else that would slip through a standard grate.
Why you need this:
Ever lost a shrimp to the coals? Watched asparagus tips disappear into the fire? The Perforated Half Grid solves that problem. The small perforations allow smoke and heat to reach your food while creating a stable cooking surface for items that would otherwise be impossible to grill. On the XL, you've got room for serious vegetable production.
The non-stick advantage:
Aluminum construction with a non-stick coating means easy cooking and easier cleanup. Delicate items like fish won't stick, vegetables release cleanly, and you're not scrubbing for 20 minutes after dinner.
Perfect for:
-
Shrimp: Grill without skewers, nothing falls through
-
Vegetables: Asparagus, peppers, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes
-
Fish: Delicate fillets that would stick or break apart
-
Scallops: Stable surface for perfect searing
-
Diced items: Onions, zucchini, anything cubed
-
Breakfast: Bacon bits, small sausages
-
Appetizers: Stuffed mushrooms, bacon-wrapped bites
The Half Moon advantage:
Use the Perforated Grid on one side while keeping a regular grate on the other — grill your steaks on the standard grate while vegetables cook on the perforated side. The EGGspander system makes this kind of multi-zone cooking easy, and the XL gives you plenty of space for both.
