CosmoGrill Cast Iron Grate for Deluxe & Pro 4+1 Gas Barbecue (Deluxe & Pro 4+1 Grill Grate)

The essentials

If you cook on a Deluxe & Pro 4+1 gas barbecue and you’re after more control over searing, this CosmoGrill cast iron grate is the sort of upgrade people look for. On paper, the big draw is simple: cast iron holds on to heat and tends to spread it more evenly than lighter grate materials, which can help you get that consistent “hot enough throughout” result.

It also isn’t just about function. A cast iron grate can give you more defined sear marks and a more developed surface flavour. For everyday grilling—steaks, burgers, chicken pieces, vegetables, and even eggs—this kind of grate design can make the experience feel a bit more “properly cooked”, rather than hit-and-miss.

Key features that matter in use

The grate is made from 100% cast iron. That matters because it’s designed to be robust and resistant to corrosion, so it’s more of a long-term part than something you’d expect to replace quickly. If you keep your barbecue outdoors or you grill frequently, corrosion resistance is one of those unglamorous benefits you’ll likely appreciate over time.

Another practical point is consistent heat retention and distribution. When the grate holds heat well, food is less likely to cool the cooking surface instantly when you put it on. The result you’re aiming for is moist, flavourful food with reliable browning.

And yes, presentation counts. Cast iron can produce striking sear marks, so the grill marks you’re used to seeing in restaurant-style photos are more achievable.

What stands out (and what to be careful about)

This grate is designed for compatibility with the Deluxe Pro 4+1 model mentioned in the listing (aka 93411 or EL-2014DH). The listing also notes that to fully cover the firebox, two cast iron grill grates are required.

That’s where you need to pay attention: this listing includes only one grate. If your goal is a full cast iron cooking surface across the whole firebox, you’ll need to buy a second grate rather than assuming one is enough.

If you’re unsure which grate suits your specific BBQ, the listing suggests choosing from the options above or contacting support. It can feel like a small detail, but getting the fit right saves a lot of hassle.

Who it suits best

It makes sense if you want a cast iron cooking surface for better searing and even heat distribution, and you’re specifically running a Deluxe & Pro 4+1 gas barbecue. If you mostly cook a mix of meats and veg (and sometimes eggs), a grate like this is built for that “variety grilling” mindset.

It’s also a solid choice if you’re replacing a worn or incompatible grate and want something that’s designed to be durable and corrosion-resistant.

Where it may not be the best match

Not everyone will need cast iron. If you prefer simpler, lower-maintenance grilling or you’re happy with the standard enamelled grate that comes with your barbecue, you may find this upgrade less compelling.

Also, if you were expecting this to come as a complete set for full coverage, bear in mind the listing includes just one grate. That limitation can make it feel incomplete unless you plan to buy two.

Practical tips for getting the most from it

Cast iron performs best when you let it come up properly to temperature before cooking. A good micro-routine is to preheat the barbecue until the cooking surface feels consistently hot, then start with foods that benefit most from direct searing (like burgers or meat pieces). For vegetables or eggs, keep an eye on how quickly the surface responds to different foods, since the grate will hold heat strongly once it’s fully warmed.

If you’re aiming for defined grill marks, avoid moving food around too soon. Let it develop a crust first—then flip or adjust.

• Material: 100% cast iron
• Included in the listing: 1 grate
• Compatibility (as stated): Deluxe Pro 4+1 aka 93411 or EL-2014DH

Quick buying checklist before you order

• Check your barbecue model against the Deluxe Pro 4+1 identifiers listed (93411 or EL-2014DH).
• Confirm whether you need one grate or two for full coverage.
• If you’re currently using an enamelled grate, think about whether you truly want the cast iron searing and heat-retention style.
• If compatibility is unclear, the listing recommends messaging for assistance—worth doing rather than gambling.

Is it worth it?

Worth considering if you’re running the Deluxe & Pro 4+1 gas barbecue and you want a cast iron grate that’s built for even heat distribution, moisture-friendly cooking, and more noticeable sear marks. It’s also a sensible move if you’re replacing a grate and care about corrosion resistance.

You may want to skip it if you’re not specifically tied to the Deluxe Pro 4+1 model, or if you’re expecting this to fully cover the firebox on its own. It can also feel like overkill if your cooking style doesn’t lean into searing and you’re happy with the standard enamelled grate.

In short: it’s a practical upgrade for the right barbecue, but do the compatibility and coverage check first—one grate won’t equal a full cast iron cooking area.
