Bullseye Best Grate for Bullseye?

This is my favorite

that looks great! not a bad price either for 304 stainless. i have $200 in 304 for my bulls second shelf project which will be done shortly. got side tracked and quit on it for a few months

I have that one also. I’ve never seen a finer made grate on any grill.

Maybe this is already obvious to others, but what is the biggest advantage of using the BPS stainless steel grate, over the stock Bullseye grate? I realize it's 304 stainless and a bit heavier with wider bars, but I haven't had any rust issues or difficulty cleaning the stock grate, and I use Grill Grates on them about half the time, as well. For ~$70, I wasn't sure it was worth the switch. Thoughts? Thanks.

The Bullseye grate seemed light duty. I went with the cast iron for the sear marks.

My OEM Bullseye grate warped. Not a big deal when cooking most foods, but if I wanted to cook in a cast iron skillet, the oil in the pan ran to one side.

I use the big poppa ss grate and East Georgia Metal heavy diffuser on my bullseye - great combination.
you can remove the center of the diffuser and place a cast iron skillet (or similar) directly on the diffuser for wood fired frying.
