  • Pros: The non-stick surface is top-tier, making cleaning much faster than standard grates.
  • Cons: It’s a specific accessory, so always double-check it matches your exact oven model.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Copper Kettle, a bustling bistro in Keswick, Lake District, wanted to improve the consistency and  presentation of their popular grilled halloumi and  steak dishes. Their existing methods were inconsistent during peak times, leading to variable results.

"Since we switched to the Rational grill grate, every single steak has the same perfect sear. It looks fantastic, and  the kitchen team can work faster because they trust the result. Our food photos on social media have never looked better, and  customers definitely notice the quality."

Liam Evans – Head Chef

The bistro now achieves perfect grill marks on over 80 covers a night, significantly improving plate appeal and  operational efficiency during the busiest periods.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Always ensure the grate is placed securely on the oven rack.
  • For best results, preheat the grate inside the oven before placing food on it.
  • Choose which side to use – the classic stripes or the diamond crosshatch – before preheating.
  • Lightly oiling your food, rather than the grate itself, often works best.

Keeping It Going

  • Allow the grate to cool down before cleaning to avoid thermal shock.
  • Clean using a soft cloth or sponge with warm, soapy water.
  • Avoid using harsh metal scrapers or abrasive scouring pads, as they can damage the TriLax® coating.
  • While it's tough, handwashing is recommended over a commercial dishwasher to prolong the life of the non-stick surface.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Combi Oven Accessories

Not sure which accessory will make the biggest difference to your menu? Here are a few things to keep in mind.

Confirm Compatibility First

The single most important step. Always cross-reference the accessory's model number with your specific combi oven to guarantee a perfect fit and  safe operation.

Material and  Coating Matter

Look for accessories with robust construction and  specialist coatings like TriLax®. They last longer and  make cleaning significantly easier, saving you staff time and  money.

Focus on Your Menu

Choose accessories that directly enhance your most popular or profitable dishes. A dedicated Rational grill grate accessory is a must if you sell a lot of steaks or grilled fish.

Genuine is Best

Official manufacturer accessories are designed to work in perfect harmony with your oven's technology, ensuring optimal heat distribution and  cooking results.

Consider the Cleanup

An accessory that's difficult to clean will quickly fall out of use. Non-stick surfaces and  simple designs are always a win for a busy kitchen team.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this grate compatible with all Rational ovens?

A: It's designed for specific modern Rational series like the iCombi and  SelfCookingCenter. It's always best to check your oven's manual or the product compatibility list to be certain.

Q: What is the difference between the two sides?

A: One side produces the classic, thin grill stripes you'd see in a steakhouse. The other side creates a broader, diamond-shaped crosshatch pattern, which is popular in American-style grilling.

Q: Can I cook delicate items like fish on it?

A: Absolutely. The TriLax® non-stick coating is excellent for delicate items like fish fillets, preventing them from sticking and  breaking apart.

Q: How should I clean the TriLax® coating to make it last?

A: Use warm soapy water and  a soft sponge or cloth. Avoid metal utensils, steel wool, or harsh abrasive cleaners as they can scratch and  damage the surface.

Q: Does the grate need to be seasoned before I use it for the first time?

A: No, it's ready to use straight out of the box. Just give it a quick wash with warm, soapy water before its first use.

Q: What material is the Rational cross and  stripe grate made from?

A: It is made from a highly durable, heat-conductive core with Rational’s patented three-layer TriLax® non-stick coating.

Q: Can this go in a commercial dishwasher?

A: While the coating is extremely durable, we recommend handwashing to maximise its lifespan. The high pressures and  harsh chemicals in some commercial dishwashers can degrade non-stick surfaces over time.

Q: Is this part the same as the Rational 60.71.617 grill grate?

A: This is part number 60.73.314. While they serve a similar purpose, there can be differences in size or compatibility. Please ensure you are ordering the correct part for your specific oven model.

What Customers Are Saying

David Chen – The Gilded Spoon, Bristol

"This Rational grill tray for our oven was worth every penny. We get perfect results on our fish and  vegetables. It's so much easier to clean than our old one."

Maria Costa – Costa's Kitchen, Manchester

Why The TriLax® Coating is More Than Just 'Non-Stick'

We see 'non-stick' on lots of things, but Rational's TriLax® coating is in a different league. Think of it less like a standard frying pan and  more like high-performance engineering for your food. It’s a three-layer system designed not only to stop food from sticking but also to actively assist with browning. It can withstand the intense, high-temperature environment of a combi oven without degrading. This means your Rational combi oven grill grate will keep performing for years, ensuring food releases cleanly and  cleanup never involves heavy scrubbing, which is a massive time-saver in a busy kitchen.

Who Should Buy This?
