9865-54 Grill Grates Replacement Parts for Broil King - Heavy Cast

In this review the 9865-54 grill grates replacement parts are evaluated for people who need durable, high-heat cooking surfaces that match Broil King style grills. The single biggest reason to consider these grates is their matte enamel cast iron construction, which delivers strong heat retention and even cooking for searing. They come as a set of two heavier, larger-rod grates designed to fit a wide range of Broil King, Broil-Mate and compatible models, making them a practical aftermarket option for owners replacing worn or missing cooking grids.

Key Features

• Material: Matte enamel cast iron provides superior heat retention and helps create even sears across the cooking surface.
• Design: Upgraded heavier, larger diameter solid rods with smaller clearance improve contact and reduce flare-ups compared with thinner rod grates.
• Durability: The enamel finish resists the chipping issues common to thin porcelain coatings when handled with non-metallic tools and regular oiling.
• Compatibility: Fits many Broil King Crown, Signet and related models as well as Broil-Mate and Huntington grills, simplifying replacement for older and newer units.
• Included pieces: Sold as 2 pieces: each 15 x 12 3/4 in for single grates or 15 x 25 1/2 in for paired Broil-Mate style, covering common grate layouts.

Who It's For

This product is for backyard grillers who own compatible Broil King, Broil-Mate, Huntington or Silver Chef models and want a heavy cast iron grate that emphasizes searing and heat retention. It is particularly useful for those replacing original parts with an emphasis on matching fit and surface contact for consistent cooking performance.

Those who should look elsewhere include people who need grates with deep grooves or thicker rods that exactly match every original dimension; some customers reported differences in groove profile and occasional cracked pieces, so if absolute OEM replica or guaranteed unbreakable castings are required, consider OEM parts or different materials.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Heavy matte enamel cast iron offers excellent heat retention and even cooking.
• Broad compatibility with many Broil King, Broil-Mate and Huntington models makes replacements straightforward.
• Good value compared with buying brand-only parts while matching original fit in most cases.

Cons

• Some buyers have reported mixed durability with cracked grates, so careful handling and correct seating on heat plates is important.
• Groove profile and thickness differ from some original parts, which may bother users expecting exact OEM appearance.

Our Verdict
