Grill Plate for Rocket Stove Petromax RF33-PLATE — cast iron griddle plate

The Petromax RF33-PLATE cast iron grill plate is a flat griddle surface engineered for use with compatible rocket stoves. Made from solid cast iron, the plate distributes heat evenly across its surface to support grilling, searing and general outdoor cooking. Designed to sit securely on Petromax rocket stove models, the griddle plate provides a stable platform for pans, meat and vegetables while offering high heat retention typical of cast iron cookware.

Advantages

The cast iron construction ensures long-lasting durability and reliable heat retention, allowing consistent cooking temperatures and improved searing. Its flat design provides an even cooking surface that reduces hot spots and improves contact with food. The plate is compatible with designated rocket stove models, making setup straightforward and ensuring a secure fit. Simple maintenance with routine seasoning preserves the non-stick properties and resists corrosion when cared for correctly.

How to use

Place the grill plate securely on the compatible rocket stove so it sits level and stable. Preheat the plate gradually to the desired cooking temperature to ensure even heating across the surface. Apply a thin layer of oil or fat before cooking to improve release and searing performance. Use appropriate utensils for cast iron to avoid damaging the surface. After cooking, let the plate cool slightly before cleaning; avoid thermal shock from cold water on a hot plate.

Usage recommendations

For long service life, season the cast iron plate regularly: clean with hot water and a brush, dry thoroughly, then rub with a thin coat of cooking oil and heat until polymerized. Avoid prolonged exposure to acidic foods and store the plate dry. When transporting, protect the surface from scratches and impacts to maintain even cooking performance.
