Heavy commercialgrade cast iron steak weight engineered for consistent pressure, durability, and even heat transfer. Key benefits Even sear and faster contact: The heavy castiron body delivers steady, uniform pressure for better surface contact — improving searing and reducing flareups by holding meat flat against the cooking surface. Controlled fat drainage and crisping: The squaregrooved channel face guides juices away from the meat for cleaner sears and more even crisping at the contact points. Comfortable, safe handling: Smooth wood, cooltouch handle gives a secure grip and reduces heat transfer to your hand so you can reposition the weight safely during cooking. Ready quantity: Includes 1 steak weight per . Features and performance Material: Heavy commercialgrade cast iron provides longterm durability, strong contact pressure, and consistent thermal mass for repeatable results. Face design: Square grooved, channel face produces defined grill marks while helping direct excess fat away from the cooking surface. Handle: Smooth wood, cooltouch handle lets you lift and place the weight without bulky oven mitts for short adjustments. Typical applications Steak grilling: Press steaks on a skillet or grill to ensure maximum surface contact for even browning and a consistent crust. Smash burgers and thincut meats: Use to keep patties or thincut cuts flat during heat cooking for uniform doneness across the surface. Panini and pressed sandwiches: Apply steady weight for even compression and faster, more uniform browning on sandwiches cooked on griddles or skillets. Care and basic use notes Preheat the weight with your cooking surface for sear results. Use caution when handling — the wood handle stays cooler but the cast iron will be hot. Clean and dry thoroughly after use to prevent rust. Reseason as needed to maintain a natural nonstick surface. Includes: one (1) steak weight per .
