I have the baron 490 and the grills are rusty despite the regular maintenance I provide.
I have followed the recommandations but doesnt remove or stop the rusty.

Great if you know how to take care of cast iron

Dont go by the reviews of the people who dont know how to take care of cast iron. You have to season them before first use. I also spray them with a kitchen pump oil sprayer.
You have to keep them oiled and then they wont rust. Especially if you have a long cook time the heat burns out the oil. Also if you dont plan on using it for a few months make sure to oil it.
Food tastes better than any propane grill Ive ever used because of the cast iron.

I bought this my Baron grill in 2015. No issues with anything else but the grids. This is my second set and I oil them after ever use. Looks just like all of the other pics you see. pay for the Stainless steel if its an option...

Rusty Grates
Buddha63
8/6/2020
I have had my Broil King Baron for 5 years now. In the first few months the grill grates rusted badly they were properly seasoned prior to use. I contacted Broil King and they sent out a set of new grates at no charge. This is summer #5 I use my grill year round I season my grates twice a year and they are rusting again. I am not disappointed at all since i use my grill year round I live in Michigan where the temperature varies greatly. The key to the longevity of any grill is to keep it clean and always make sure the grill is completely cool before covering so moisture does not form. I am going to order the stainless steel replacement grates this time since my grill is getting older. I will post in the future how i like the new grates.

I am on my 3rd set of these grates just into my 4th year of owning. The grill itself is great. But something needs to be done by BK regarding these cast iron grates. Price to replace is ridiculous just to have them rust again. Flavor bars are bad as well.

Avid griller and used to taking care of a grill. I love the Broil King grills and this is my second one. I ordered Cast Iron Grates for this one due to better searing qualities but have been sadly disappointed I season them about every 4-6 months and they are still rusting away. The cast iron must be very low quality I would reccomend sticking with Stainless Steel BKs quality department needs to work out some supplier quality issues I feel.

Like all the other posters here my grids rusted within two years. I care well for them keeping them seasoned and so on but they just dont hold up Not sure what I can do to replace them and I really dont want to spend the money to get new ones that will rust. Very disappointed

NorthernGriller
6/22/2020
I am reading the reviews on these grills and have a similar experience. I would not recommend this product due to the grills. The 4 grill plates did not last as they RUSTED very quickly even with recommended seasoning. The replacement grills are very expensive compared to the competitor bbq and the odd size makes it impossible to find generic grill plate. Therefore forced to make decision to scrap bbq and buy new instead of replacing just the grills. It is seems that the manufacturer designed the product failure around the grill plate which is normally a maintenance item. I also already replace the burner tubes once and the igniter twice. My original opinion was that Broil King was a premium product but after the experience with the grill plates burner and igniter I would not recommend Broil King as a top end bbq

Problem with Bronchiole Cast Iron Grills
RayM
6/13/2020
My experience with my Broil King cast iron grill 17 3/8 x 6 1/8 Baron is similar to others - the grills 3 of them have rusted out in a relatively short time. Probably 3 or 4 years - I dont barbecue very often. I am trying to locate replacements but $30 plus tax and shipping x 3 seems unreasonable particularly as I need to replace3 burners and 3 wave plates as well

I have exactly the same problem as other reviewers - despite cleaning and seasoning the grills for my Baron 590 they are rusting out. Looking for a source for replacements I nearly fell over when I saw the price. I bought a Broil King so I wouldnt have to replace my bbq every few years but for the price of the grills I maybe should have stuck with my old strategy of buying a new cheap bbq every few years. So disappointing when you make the conscious decision to buy what you expect to be a quality product.

I am currently looking to solve these aforementioned rust issues. Not only is it $150 for replacements they are special order and impossible to locate. Terribly disappointing this was not an inexpensive grill. I keep it covered and cleaned. It is a shame I am so disappointed. I do not recommend.

Ive had this grill for 4 years and am in my second set of grates and the results are the same Rusted out in 2 years. Given the cost of replacements I am hesitant to choose cast again. Might try a universal stainless unless a better Broil King has a better option

Ive had my Broil King Baron Model for two years...now the grates are already falling apart/rusting. I clean the grills all the time - my last BBQ and gills lasted for many years. I wonder how much rusted grill Ive eaten off this Broil King unit. The cooking grills are terrible.

I have had cheap BBqs over the years where they fell apart...except the acutal cooking grills. So I spent the money on a quality bbq and my cast iron cooking grills have totally disintegrated after only 2 years. The rest of the BBq is fine...totally opposite than the cheap BBQs. I cover the BBQ and even bring it into the garage over the winter. I season and clean the grids as directed. Extremely disappointed in this.
