Primo Cast Iron Charcoal Grate for Oval LG 300

Primo Cast Iron Charcoal Grate for Oval LG 300: The Spare Part That Restores the Draft

Does the Oval LG 300 take longer to come up to temperature than it used to, or respond poorly when you adjust the vents? Then the charcoal grate is often the culprit. The grate sits at the bottom of the firebox with the embers directly on it, and after some seasons even heavy cast iron can crack or warp. This original spare part from Primo puts the air system back in order: the charcoal is lifted so the draft reaches the embers from below, and ash falls freely into the ash chamber.

Everything in a kamado is governed by the airflow from the bottom vent up through the charcoal, and the charcoal grate is the foundation of that system. An intact grate gives even embers across the whole base, fast lighting and a grill that obeys the vents precisely, whether you are holding 110 degrees with a smoking cut or running full heat with a pizza stone. Since this is the original part from Primo, it sits correctly in the LG 300 firebox without adjustment, and the swap takes a moment with no tools.

Features

• Heavy cast iron: Sits directly in the embers without losing its shape, season after season.
• Restores the draft: The charcoal is lifted off the base so air reaches the embers, and ash falls unobstructed through the grate.
• Original fit: Primo's own part for the Oval LG 300, sits correctly in the firebox without adjustment.
• Tool-free swap: Lift out the old grate and set the new one in place in under a minute.

How to use

1. Let the grill cool down completely, and empty out charcoal and ash.
2. Lift the old charcoal grate out of the firebox.
3. Set the new grate in place at the bottom of the firebox.
4. Fill with charcoal and light as normal, and empty the ash chamber regularly for the best draft.
