A fellow BBQ enthusiast wrote me e-mail; and asks what I had
under a skillet on my gas burner in one of my posts. It is a cast iron diffuser
plate. It is about ¼ inch thick. Early using cast iron cook ware on the burner
I had trouble keeping the heat down and not burning stuff. I found this
diffuser plate on the net and it helped; so I use it all the time.
In the first pic you can see the burner which is at least 20
yrs. old. It is about as simple a burner as they make and should last a life
time. One accessory I found necessary is the venturi brush you see to clean out
spider webs after not using a while. If it gets plugged you will notice it by
not being able to get a nice blue flame.
The second pic shows the bottom of the diffuser plate. You
can see it is recessed.
The third pic shows the plate in place.
