    Anyone change out the cast iron grates?

    There are these ones...



    Polarbear777 has these ones which are ProGrates and he considers them very burly.



    Joe also builds some very nice and reasonably priced ones that are custom for the smoker.

      Moreover, cleaning grill grates is not that difficult if you done it the right way. I have personally experienced cleaning grills grates with vinegar, it's easy and the results are amazing. It reduces the efforts of scrubbing and provide the ease to clean. A good guide on it is explained in the link attached. Do give it a read and it will save your time and money.
