T3 Warming Rack. A second level above the embers, 44 x 22 cm.
The T3 warming rack is a stainless steel rack that is hung above the grilling surface of the Thüros T3 to keep cooked food warm. Not a second grilling surface, not a replacement for a larger grill, cannot be used without a wind deflector.
The T3 warming rack measures 44 x 22 cm and fits exclusively the Thüros T3. Anyone grilling for six people knows that moment when the first steaks are ready and no one knows where to put them. The rack solves this by creating a second level where already finished food waits. On the T3, the rack is wide enough for a complete side dish, such as corn on the cob or foil-baked potatoes.
What happens on the second level
The warming rack sits above the actual grilling surface and only receives rising heat, not direct radiation from the embers. Up there, the temperature ranges from 80 to 120 degrees, depending on the amount of charcoal.
This is sufficient to keep cooked food at temperature without further cooking it. For bread and rolls, this zone is ideal because they get crispy on the outside without burning. Foil-baked potatoes, corn on the cob, and vegetable skewers also finish cooking peacefully there.
It needs the wind deflector
The rack is not placed on the grill, but rather hung into the wind deflector. Without this deflector, it cannot be mounted.
This is the most important information before purchasing. If you only own the grill, you need both parts. If you already use the deflector because it adjusts the grate height and protects against wind, you can add the warming rack without further accessories.
Stainless steel that can go in the dishwasher
Made of non-magnetic V2A stainless steel, the material used for the entire Thüros range. The rack does not rust, does not permanently warp, and can go into the dishwasher after grilling.
For the second level, this is more relevant than for the main grate: it holds bread that absorbs fat, and vegetables whose sugar caramelizes and bakes on. Both clean better in the machine than with a brush.
For what group the rack is worthwhile
For four people or more, the second level makes the difference between serving one after another and serving simultaneously. Below that, it's a convenience, not a must-have.
The rack is not suitable for searing — it lacks the direct heat for that. It is a warming zone, not a doubling of the grilling surface. If you need more grilling surface, you're better off with the next larger model than with accessories.
The level where the finished food waits until everything is ready.
