Description
The Primo Half-Moon Cast Iron Griddle for Oval Junior (PG00362) is the Junior size of Primo's dual-purpose half-moon cast iron griddle. Primo says its smooth side and grooved side let you fry, sear and sauté, and that the cast iron gives higher heat retention, more even heat distribution and faster cooking times.
This listing is the Junior size, for the Primo Oval Junior 200 PGCJRH and the Junior in the All-In-One Oval Junior 200 PGCJRC. Primo also makes the griddle for the Large, XL, XL JD and XXL; we carry the Large half-moon cast iron griddle PG00365. For searing on the Junior, see the half-moon cast iron searing grate PG00363; for a griddle that covers the whole Junior grid, see the stainless Junior griddle PGJRG, or browse our Primo collection.
Plan ahead: Primo does not publish the griddle's dimensions, weight or seasoning state, so ask us if you need them before you order.

Features
- Two cooking surfaces: a smooth side and a grooved side, so one griddle can fry, sear and sauté.
- Cast iron: Primo cites higher heat retention, more even heat distribution and faster cooking times.
- Sized for the Oval Junior 200: the Junior variant of Primo's griddle, which also comes in Large, XL and XXL sizes.
- Primo cast iron warranty: covered by Primo's limited 1-year rust-through warranty on cast iron parts (see Warranty).

Installation planning
- Fit: this griddle is the Junior size; for other Primo grills choose the griddle in your grill's size. Primo's warranty does not cover unauthorized parts.
- Setup: Primo does not publish written instructions for the half-moon griddle, so ask us before your first cook.
- Searing heat: Primo's owner's manual gives searing temperatures of 500°F to 550°F.
- Placement of the grill: Primo's Junior spec sheet asks for 10 in. of space behind the grill so the lid can open fully, and at least 2 in. around the outside of the grill.
- Fuel and lighting: use only natural lump charcoal, lit with a fire starter cube or two, a chimney or an electric starter with the dome open. Never use lighter fluid or any other combustible liquid; Primo says the ceramic absorbs it.
- Temperature: Primo's Quick Start Guide has you set the draft door and fine-tune with the top vent in 1/4 in. steps, closing the top vent to one-third open when you are 25°F from your target; it notes it is easy to raise the temperature but very difficult to lower it.
Care: Primo's owner's manual says the grill is self-cleaning: heat it to around 500°F to burn off food and debris. Primo's warranty maintenance asks you to remove ash from the cast iron grate, clean the cooking grates and cast iron cooking surfaces after each use, and check and tighten the band bolts several times a season and after each high-heat cook.
Warranty
Primo Ceramic Grills gives the original purchaser of the grill a limited lifetime warranty on all ceramic parts, a limited 5-year rust-through warranty on metal parts other than cast iron, a limited 1-year rust-through warranty on cast iron parts and on all other parts and accessories unless stated otherwise, and a limited 30-day warranty on felt gaskets and thermometers. The griddle is a cast iron part, so Primo's limited 1-year rust-through warranty on cast iron parts applies.
Primo's conditions: coverage is for the original purchaser; the product must be installed according to Primo's instructions; keep a bill of sale or payment record. Replacement parts ship at the purchaser's expense, and the existing part must be disposed of once the replacement arrives. Not covered: rust, fading, surface blemishes and oxidation unless they cause the part to fail; damage from use, misuse, improper installation or storage; unauthorized service or parts; lack of maintenance (including not removing ash from cast iron grates, not cleaning cooking grates and cast iron cooking surfaces after each use, and not checking and tightening bolts several times a season); removal and reinstallation, service calls, labor, travel, diagnostic and freight charges. Claims go through your dealer with the model number, serial number and proof of purchase, or through Primo's online warranty claim form; international claims are not accepted. Full terms are on Primo's warranty and parts page.
