When the cold meat hits the hot cast iron, the grid quickly releases its heat into the meat producing the highly coveted grill marks. By releasing heat that part of the grid cools. This is why 'those in the know,' recommend moving to a new part of the hot grid to keep the heat transfer (grill marks) going. While moving, turn the meat 90 degrees to create the ever-popular crosshatch pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003eDual Sided:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne side is narrow. The other side is wide. The narrow side (thin edge) is best for creating the grill lines outlined above. The wide (flat side) is perfect for seafood, fish, veggies or other foods that need more grid surface underneath. The flat side is also ideal for holding thin foods that can easily fall through a Stainless grid. The grids come preseasoned, ready for immediate use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003eGrid Compatibility\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSits directly on the fire ring for these grills:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMiniMax Big Green EGG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall Big Green EGG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKamado Joe, Joe Junior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCan be paired with CGS Spiders in these grills.

Close to the lump is best - makes it easier for the cast iron to heat up and sear.

The grid goes back in the hot grill on an elevated rack. As the grill cools down, the grid gets a quick redo of protective oil to prevent rust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003eCouple hot tips:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a cast iron grid or griddle heats up, it gets lighter (less gray) in color.

Not exactly, with very hot cast iron, the water droplets will 'dance' or jump around.
