6. Betjening

Once installed, the heat plate shields operate automatically with your grill. As the burners heat up, the porcelain steel plates absorb and radiate heat, ensuring even cooking temperatures across the grill grates. Drippings from food will fall onto the hot plates, vaporizing to create smoke that infuses flavor into your food, rather than causing flare-ups.
