Salt-plate cookery has reached a fevered pitch. The most common way to use a salt plate is over the direct low heat of a grill, but on its own, the salt plate can be awkward and dangerous to maneuver. The Charcoal Companion® salt-plate holder is made with a durable porcelain coating and provides easier, safer salt-plate transport from the cooking surface to the table. Furthermore, the holder eliminates excess pressure on any one area of the plate while protecting fragile edges. As your salt plate begins to wear down, use the holder as a frame to hold together larger pieces of salt. The MSRP is $14.99.
